Abstract: Polypropylene is accumulated in the environment that serious cause for society and human. It’s degradation under artificial climate was studied in this research. Polypropylene pieces (3*15cm ) were weighted and they were kept under artificial thermal condition for 0-12 hours at 80,100,120,140˚C temperature and weight were recorded at different time interval. Average weight loss of polypropylene samples were 0.3 – 0.4 % at end of 12 hours. The order of reaction (n) varies was obtained respect to degradation of polypropylene. The toughness of material was recorded, it varied from 35% to 95% from initial values.
