Plastic Material | Features | Applicable products | |
POM | Low friction coefficient, Good geometric stability | Especially suitable for the production of gear and bearing | |
PA |
PA6 | Good elasticity, High impact strength, Water absorption is bigger | Suitable for making general machinery parts, reduce friction wear parts, transmission parts, as well as chemical, instrumentation and so on. |
PA66 | Better than PA6, High strength, Good abrasion resistance | ||
PA610 | Similar to PA66, but small water absorption, Low stiffness | ||
PA1010 | Translucent, Small water absorption, Good cold resistance | ||
PC |
Very good impact strengthm, Thermal stability, Glossiness, Inhibit bacteria, Flame retardant properties and stain resistance | Electrical and business equipment(computer components, connectors, ect.), Appliances(food processor, a refrigerator drawer, ect.), The transportation industry(the vehicle’s front and rear lights, dashboard, ect.) | |
PETG | Transparent, high strength, high wayward integrated features | Plate, sheet, special-shaped material (film, bottles), cosmetics packaging
| |
PPO |
Non-crystalline material, Moisture absorption of small, Poor liquidity, Low bibulous rate is about 0.06% | Suitable for production of heat resistance, insulation parts, antifriction, wear parts, transmission parts, medical and eletronic parts(screws, fasteners and fittings ) | |
PBT | One of the most tenacious engineering thermoplastic materials
Have a very good chemical stability, mechanical strength, electrical insulation properties and thermal stability
| Home appliances (food processing blade, vacuum components, electric fans, hair dryer, coffee ware, etc.), electrical components (switch, electrical cabinet, fuse box, computer keyboard key, etc.), automotive industry (radiator shutters, panels, wheel cover, car body, door and window components, etc.)
| |
PMMA | Excellent optical properties and resistance to climate change. The white light penetrability is as high as 92% Have very low birefringence Have room temperature creep property Have good impact resistance properties | automobile industry(signal equipment, instrument panel, etc.), pharmaceutical industry (ChuXie container, etc.), industrial applications (video, light scattering), consumer goods (drink cup, stationery, etc.)
