Can anybody give me data on polypropylene film?  I saw a flat plate cap at
the UK Teslathon that appeared to be made of plastic document protectors &
foil.  I found some pocket-style document protectors at work and examined
them.  The recycling symbol says they are polypropylene.  I can't find any
values as to dielectric strength, dielectric constant, etc., in my
literature. 

Also, does anyone know the meanings of the various plastics recycling
symbols?  For example, I know "HDPE 2" is polyethylene, but I'm wondering
what the shorthand is for various other plastics. 

Cheers,

Greg
