Polytetrafluoroethylene Plastic (PTFE)
Polytetrafluoroethylene Commonly known as the “King of Plastics” Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), also known as Teflon, commonly known as the “King of Plastics”, is a high molecular polymer made by polymerizing tetrafluoroethylene as a monomer. Its chemical formula is (C2F4)n. It has excellent heat and cold resistance and can be used for a long time at -180 […]
Polyoxymethylene Plastic (POM)
Polyoxymethylene (POM) Polyoxymethylene (POM), also known as acetal or polyoxymethylene, is an excellent engineering thermoplastic. POM is often used to produce precision parts that require high stiffness, low friction and dimensional stability. Like many other synthetic POM polymers, POM is produced by different chemical companies with slightly different formulations. POM is a high-performance engineering thermoplastic […]
Polyamide Plastic (PA)
Polyamide Nylon (full name Polyamide, abbreviated as PA), also known as polyamide fiber, nylon, and nylon. Nylon is a kind of highly polar polymer material. A large number of hydrogen bonds can be formed between its molecules, so it has a high melting point and a narrow melting range. The material exhibits excellent mechanical properties, […]
What is Polycarbonate Plastic (PC)
Polycarbonate Plastic Polycarbonate plastic is a thermoplastic with good optical properties, excellent impact resistance, and extraordinary durability. It can be extruded into sheets, films, blocks, rods, tubes, and other special shapes. It can also be injection molded into some plastic parts for industrial applications. Polycarbonate (PC) plastic is virtually indestructible and one of the most […]
What is Polystyrene Plastic (PS)
What is Polystyrene? Polystyrene can be divided into thermoplastic materials and thermosetting materials according to its polymer structure. Thermosetting materials cannot be remelted after the initial molding, while thermoplastic materials can be melted and reused many times. Therefore, thermoplastic polystyrene (PS) can be used for injection molding and then recycled. Polystyrene (PS), a polymer synthesized […]
What is Polypropylene (PP)
What is Polypropylene? Polypropylene (PP for short) is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic polymer made from propylene monomers through addition polymerization. It is usually a white waxy solid, non-toxic, odorless, transparent in appearance and light in texture. Its chemical formula is (C3H6)n, and its density is 0.89-0.92 g/cm3, making it the thermoplastic resin with the lowest density; […]
Low Density Polyethylene Plastic (LDPE)?
What is LDPE? Low-density polyethylene, also known as high-pressure polyethylene (LDPE), is the lightest variety of polyethylene resin. It is milky white, tasteless, odorless, non-toxic, and matte waxy particles. It has good softness, extensibility, electrical insulation, transparency, easy processing, and certain air permeability. It has good chemical stability and is resistant to alkali and general […]
Polyvinyl Chloride Plastic (PVC)
What is PVC? Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is the third largest synthetic polymer plastic in the world (after polyethylene and polypropylene), with an annual production of about 40 million tons of PVC. PVC is a polymer formed by the free radical polymerization mechanism of vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) in the presence of initiators such as peroxides […]
High Density Polyethylene Plastic (HDPE)
What is HDPE? High-density polyethylene (HDPE) is a white powder or granular product. It is non-toxic, odorless, with a crystallinity of 80% to 90%, a softening point of 125 to 135°C, and an operating temperature of up to 100°C; its hardness, tensile strength and creep are better than those of low-density polyethylene; its wear resistance, […]
What Is PET Plastic?
PET Plastic? Natural PET is a transparent plastic with a glossy surface. It has all the advantages of glass – a strong, inert material that does not react with food. It resists attack by microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi and parasites, and does not biodegrade even when exposed to excessive moisture and air for a […]
