NEURODESIGN® · MATERIAL CLASS · SYNTHETIC FIBRE AND POLYMER
Polypropylene
Olefin fibre. Hydrophobic, stain resistant by chemistry rather than by treatment, low resilience.
Decisive attributes
The attributes that most determine how this class behaves and how it is experienced. No values are shown, because a value belongs to a product and not to a class. Two products of the same material can differ from each other by more than the material differs from its neighbours.
Typical application
Carpet. Outdoor textile.
Evidence
No record in the research corpus tests human response to this material class. Its physical behaviour may be well understood and its properties may be entirely predictable from the attributes above. That is a different thing from evidence that a person responds to it, and this library does not convert one into the other. The absence is shown rather than filled.
