EK99 Bumper - PU??? Rubber???

[Johnny_9]

PU, Rubber, what's the difference? Please explain.

Which is better?

Where to get in PJ/KL?

 

[Hikaru]

None of them.

Original PP is the best, nothing beats the genuine original part.

 

[Johnny_9]

Pp?

PP is Poly.....??

How much is an original bumper?

What is the problem with local types? Warping????

Polypropylene (PP) is a thermoplastic polymer, used in a wide variety of applications, including food packaging, textiles, laboratory equipment, automotive components, and polymer banknotes. An addition polymer made from the monomer propylene, it is unusually resistant to many chemical solvents, bases and acids. Its resin identification code is

Chemical & physical properties

Most commercial polypropylene has a level of crystallinity intermediate between that of low density polyethylene (LDPE) and high density polyethylene (HDPE); its Young's modulus is also intermediate. Although it is less tough than LDPE, it is much less brittle than HDPE. This allows polypropylene to be used as a replacement for engineering plastics, such as ABS. Polypropylene has very good resistance to fatigue, so that most plastic living hinges, such as those on flip-top bottles, are made from this material.
Polypropylene has a melting point of 320 degrees Fahrenheit (160 degrees Celsius). Food containers made from it will not melt in the dishwasher, and do not melt during industrial hot filling processes. For this reason, most plastic tubs for dairy products are polypropylene sealed with aluminium foil (both heat-resistant materials). After the product has cooled, the tub are often given lids of a cheaper (and less heat-resistant) material, such as LDPE or polystyrene. Such containers provide a good hands-on example of the difference in modulus, since the rubbery feeling of LDPE with respect to PP of the same thickness is readily apparent.
A rubbery PP can also be made by a specialized synthesis process, as discussed below. Unlike traditional rubber, it can be melted and recycled, making it a thermoplastic elastomer.

It's useless if I tell you what is PP, just get the god damn original bumper, only about rm250 depends where you get it.

Pp

OK. :shocked: Thanks!

ORI!!! Woot! *grins* at Simon

 

[MiLd7]

where can get the bumper?? original ek9 bumper can fit in ek3 kah??????

 

[JEC6636]

sure can fit....but there'll be some part that not so fit at the headlights area...front grill and both sides of your mudgard...
