PEI vs. PP Copolymer
Both PEI and PP copolymer are thermoplastics. There are 14 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (18, in this case) are not shown.
For each property being compared, the top bar is PEI and the bottom bar is PP copolymer.
