What are PP bags?
PP woven bags are bags made of PP plastic in the woven method. Woven, or weaving is a method by many threads or tapes woven in two directions (warp and weft), to form a fabric for plastic industry needs. Polypropylene (PP), is one kind of thermoplastic resin material produced by the polymerization of propylene.
Who uses FIBC?
10 Best Uses of FIBC Bags for Bulk Transportation
- Transporting food grade products.
- Transporting pharmaceutical products.
- Transporting chemicals.
- Transportation of agricultural products.
- Transportation of building/construction materials.
- Transportation of minerals and powdered metals.
- Petroleum products transportation.
Which is better PE or PP?
Polyethylene has a lower melting point compared to the higher melting point of polypropylene. Polypropylene is stiffer and resistant to chemicals and organic solvents compared to polyethylene. Polypropylene is pure, non-stretching and generally more rigid than polyethylene.
What are Type A FIBC bags made of?
Type A FIBC Bags (no electrostatic protection) Type A FIBCs provide no static protection. Made of woven polypropylene (woven pp), static electricity is generated as materials rub against the inside surface of the bag as they are filled and emptied.
What does FIBC stand for?
For starters, FIBC stands for Flexible Intermediate Bulk Container, or bulk bag. Bulk bags and the bulk bag industry can get confusing. We’re here to simplify it for you. Read below the different options and find out which is best for your job, or pick up the phone and give us a call.
What are Type B bulk bags?
Type B FIBCs are similar to Type A bulk bags in that they are made of plain-woven polypropylene fabrics or other non-conductive material. Also like Type A bulk bags, Type B bags do not have any mechanism for dissipating static electricity.
Can type B FIBCs prevent PBD?
Although Type B FIBCs can prevent PBD, they cannot be considered antistatic FIBC because they do not dissipate electrostatic charge. Normal brush discharges can still occur, which can ignite flammable solvent vapors.
