POLYPROPYLENE! One Popular Polymer!
What’s so great about POLYPROPYLENE? • High Melting Point (dishwasher safe!) • Intermediate crystallinity: tough without being brittle • High resistance to fatigue (living hinge) • Chemically Inert • CHEAP to MAKE!!!
Polypropylene comes from Propylene!
Synthesis 1. Zeigler-Natta polymerization: TiCl3 + Al(C2H5)2Cl, or TiCl4 + Al(C2H5)3
Synthesis 2) Kaminsky Catalysts: Metallocene A metallocene is a positively charged metal ion sandwiched between two negatively charged cyclopentadienyl anions.

How much polypropylene is out there? PP generation in 1996 (tons) Source: EPA, Characterization of Municipal Solid Waste in the United States: 1997 Update * Includes plastics in disposable diapers, clothing, footwear, etc. ** Other plastics packaging includes coatings, closures, caps, trays, shapes, etc.
Longevity: ? 100s of years “Plastics numbered 3-7 have very limited markets, and the cost to separate and ship these small volume plastics is in excess of $12,000 per month.” - Madison pride recycling program Madison, WI The only way to get rid of it is to burn it. Roughly 25,000 tons were recycled in 1996 (that’s 1%)
