Why polypropylene chairs are durable?

20/11/2020

There are many types of chairs in the furniture industry, and there are many materials used to make chairs. According to statistics, customers are most concerned about the durability of the chair when choosing a chair.

Why do customers pay attention to the characteristics of durable when choosing chairs for their family? First of all, durable doesn’t refer to the hardness of the chair, it’s refers to the durability of the chair when used. For example: when customers choose outdoor dining chairs, they pay attention to the chair’s hardness, flexibility, whether it is sun-proof, rain-proof, easy to clean, easy to maintain, etc., which is a comprehensive evaluation of the experience of use. https://www.bzmaka.com/product-category/chairs/

So which chair material is the most durable? Amazon’s chair sales rankings give the answer: the most durable chair is the PP chair made of polypropylene. Polypropylene chairs have been selling well all over the world for many years, and they are very popular among consumers. One of the reasons is the strong durable of polypropylene chairs.

Why are polypropylene chairs durable? First of all, we must start with this material characteristic. The polypropylene chair is mainly composed of three materials: polypropylene, fiberglass, and UV protection.

Polypropylene chair material

Polypropylene

Polypropylene is the main material of the polypropylene chair, referred to as PP, is a colorless, odorless, non-toxic, translucent white waxy solid substance. Polypropylene (PP) is a thermoplastic synthetic resin with excellent performance. It is a colorless and translucent thermoplastic lightweight general-purpose plastic material. It has chemical resistance, heat resistance, electrical insulation, high strength mechanical properties and good high Wear resistance, etc. The density is 0.89~0.91g/cm3, the melting point is 165℃, and the temperature range is -30~140℃. It is resistant to corrosion by acids, alkalis, salt solutions and a variety of organic solvents below 80°C, is not prone to chemical reactions, and is moisture-proof and rain-proof. All are mostly used as raw materials for outdoor chairs.

The load-bearing capacity of polypropylene is very strong also. It is one of the lightest varieties in plastics. The total weight of a PP chair is generally 3.5kg~4.5kg only, but it can bear a weight of  300kg, which is very popular among European and American customers.

Fiberglass

Another important material is fiberglass of the PP chair . Fiberglass plays a vital role in the durability of a handful of PP chair.

Fiberglass is an inorganic non-metallic material with excellent performance. It’s advantages are good insulation, strong heat resistance, good corrosion resistance, high tensile strength, high elastic coefficient, low water absorption, and good adhesion with resin. It’s not easy to burn and can be melted into glass-like beads at high temperatures, so fiberglass is usually used as a reinforcing material in composite materials.

Adding fiberglass to the PP chair can form a good interface between the two and improve the chair’s flexural modulus, hardness, load deformation temperature, especially dimensional stability. Fiberglass can also enhance the mechanical strength and heat resistance of PP, and can also enhance the water vapor resistance and chemical resistance of PP.

UV protection

A UV protection additives. If your furniture is used outdoors for a long time, the long-term sunlight and ultraviolet rays will make the furniture fade slowly. But the UV protection can be avoids this problem. MAKA furniture’s outdoor PP chairs have a 2-year warranty for clients, which can protect your furniture from fading.

I believe that through the above introduction, you already know something about polypropylene chairs. So is it that as long as the chair is made of polypropylene, it must be durable? The answer is obvious. The quality of a good chair also requires high-quality suppliers to control the quality from the import of raw materials to the selection of production equipment, to a series of controls in the production process, so whether a chair is durable? A good and strict furniture manufacturer is needed.

And where can I buy a good quality PP chair? MAKA is your first choice.

The polypropylene chair is removed from the injection molding machine
