PP Copolymer vs. PPO
Both PP copolymer and PPO are thermoplastics. There are 12 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (11, in this case) are not shown.
For each property being compared, the top bar is PP copolymer and the bottom bar is PPO.
