+# PP (Polypropylene)
+- Very bendable
+- Very rugged
+- Perfect layer adhesion
+- Very low density
+- Horrible bed adhesion
+- High warping
+- Supports are impossible to remove
+## Variants
+### PP-GF (Glass-filled PP)
+- Standard for industrial machinery
+- More difficult to print than regular PP
+- One of the toughest, most durable filaments
+- Very lightweight
+# OBC (Olefin Block Copolymer)
+- Fairly new for 3D printing
+- Attempts to combine the good qualities of PP and PET-G
+- Very low bed adhesion
+- Very expensive
+- Typically requires printing on a purpose made printer
+
+# HDPE (High Density Polyethylene)
+- Most bottles and jugs use this filament
+- Horrible to print in every way
+- Useful for purging the nozzle when switching between high and low temp filaments
+
+# POM (Polyoxylmetn)
