Polyacetal also called acetal or POM, is a popular crystalline engineering thermoplastic.
It is specified for high load mechanical applications and precision parts, where strength, stiffness, stability and reliability are important.
It has a continuous use temperature range of up to 180�°F (82�°C) or impact at low temperatures (down to -40�°C). It can also be processed by injection molding and extrusion methods.
Application:
gears
door system
safety restraint components
conveyor systems components
medical delivery devices
ski bindings
frames
thin line bushings
zip fasteners
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is the world's third most widely used plastic and is an attractive alternative to traditional materials such as glass, metal, wood, and other plastic materials because of its versatility, durability and cost competitiveness.
PVC is produced in powder form and then combined with other ingredients to create a compound with specific processing and end-use properties. It is widely used in flooring, wall covering and window profiles, pipes, film, automotive sealants and interior trim, cable sheathing, medical applications and technical coatings.
Polycarbonate (PC for short) is a high molecular polymer containing carbonate groups in its molecular chain. It is an amorphous, odorless and transparent thermoplastic engineering plastic. Its high strength makes it resistant to impact and fracture. It is lightweight so an excellent alternate to glass. PC is melted and forced into a mold with high pressure to give it the desired shape. It is widely used owing to its eco-friendly processing and recyclability. It can be processed by either injection moulding or extrusion.
Application:
Building materials industry
Automobile manufacturing industry

Polyethylene terephthalate (or poly(ethylene terephthalate), PET, or PETE) is the polyester family's most common thermoplastic polymer resin. PET has a glass transition temperature of 67 - 81 C and a melting point of 260 C. It is a crystalline saturated polyester. It is a milky white or light yellow, highly crystalline polymer with a smooth and shiny surface.
Application:
Water bottle type bottle tablet
Water vapor bottle polyester slice
Edible oil bottle tablets
Carbonated beverage bottle type bottle tablet
Hot filling bottle type bottle tablets

PETG plastic is a transparent plastic. It is a product obtained by polycondensation of terephthalic acid (TPA), ethylene glycol (EG) and 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol (CHDM) by transesterification. Compared with PET, 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol comonomer is added. Compared with PVC, PET, PMMA and other materials, PETG has excellent chemical resistance, impact resistance and environmental protection properties. Its products are highly transparent and have excellent processing and molding properties.
Polypropylene (PP) is a thermoplastic resin polymerized from propylene monomer. It is a colorless, odorless and non-toxic white translucent waxy granular material. Polypropylene is divided into homopolymers and copolymers, of which homopolymers are isotactic, syndiotactic and random. Homopolymer isotactic polypropylene is the most used. Polypropylene has good thermal performance.
Eastman Tritanâ?¢ TX1001 is an amorphous copolyester with excellent appearance and clarity. Tritan TX1001 contains a mold release derived from vegetable based sources. Its most outstanding features are excellent toughness, hydrolytic stability, and heat and chemical resistance. This new-generation copolyester can also be molded into various applications without incorporating high levels of residual stress. Combined with Tritan's outstanding chemical resistance and hydrolytic stability, these features give molded products enhanced durability in the dishwasher environment, which can expose products to high heat, humidity and aggressive cleaning detergents. Tritan TX1001 may be used in repeated use food contact articles under United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations. Tritan TX1001 is certified to NSF/ANSI Standard 51 for Food Equipment
Materials and is also certified to NSF/ANSI Standard 61 Drinking Water System Components-Health Effects.
ABS plastic is a terpolymer of acrylonitrile (A), butadiene (B) and styrene (S). Adjust the ratio of the three components, and their performance will also change to meet the requirements of various applications, such as high anti-ABS, heat-resistant ABS, high-gloss ABS, etc.
ABS plastic has the common properties of three components. Acrylonitrile makes it resistant to chemical corrosion, heat resistance, and has a certain surface hardness. Butadiene makes it have high elasticity and toughness.
