Apr 19, 2022
ABS typical applications: cars (instrument panels, tool bay doors, wheel covers, mirror boxes, etc.), refrigerators, high-strength tools (hair dryers, mixers, food processors, lawn mowers, etc.), telephone housings, typewriter keyboards, entertainment vehicles such as golf carts and jet skis, etc.
PA12 typical applications: water gauges and other commercial equipment, cable sleeves, mechanical cams, sliding mechanisms and bearings.
Typical application: PA6 is widely used in structural components due to its excellent mechanical strength and stiffness. Because of its good wear resistance, it is also used to manufacture bearings.
Typical application range of PA66: Compared with PA6, PA66 is more widely used in automotive industry, instrument housing and other products requiring impact resistance and high strength.
PBT, typical application: 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, body panels, wheel cover, door and window components, etc.).
PC typical applications: electrical and commercial equipment (computer components, connectors, etc.), appliances (food processing machines, refrigerator drawers, etc.), transportation industry (vehicle front and rear lights, instrument panels, etc.).
PC/ABS typical applications: computer and commercial machine housing, electrical equipment, lawn and garden machines, automotive parts (instrument panels, interior finishes and wheel covers).
Typical PC/PBT applications: gear boxes, automotive bumpers and products requiring chemical and corrosion resistance, thermal stability, impact resistance and geometric stability.
Pe-hd typical applications: refrigerator containers, storage containers, household kitchenware, sealing covers, etc.
PEI typical application: apply to the automotive industry (engine accessories such as temperature sensor, fuel and air processor, etc.), electrical and electronic equipment (electrical connector, printed circuit boards, chip case, explosion-proof box, etc.), product packaging, aircraft internal equipment, pharmaceutical industry (surgical instruments, tools, shells, not implanted devices).
PET typical application range: automotive industry (structural components such as reflector box, electrical components such as headlight reflector, etc.), electrical components (motor housing, electrical coupling, relays, switches, microwave oven internal components, etc.). Industrial applications (pump housing, manual equipment, etc.).
PETG typical application range: medical equipment (test tube, reagent bottle, etc.), toys, displays, light source cover, protective mask, refrigerator preservation tray, etc.
Typical application: POM has very low friction coefficient and good geometric stability, especially suitable for making gears and bearings.
Typical application range of PP: automotive industry (mainly using PP containing metal additives: fenders, ventilation pipes, fans, etc.), equipment (dishwasher door liner, dryer ventilation pipe, washing machine frame and cover, refrigerator door liner, etc.), consumer goods (lawn and gardening equipment such as lawn mowers and water sprays, etc.).
PPE typical applications: household items (dishwasher, washing machine, etc.), electrical equipment such as controller housing, fiber optic connectors, etc.
PS typical application range: product packaging, household goods (tableware, tray, etc.), electrical (transparent container, light source scatterer, insulating film, etc.).
PVC typical application range: water supply pipe, household pipe, housing wall panel, commercial machine shell, electronic product packaging, medical equipment, food packaging, etc.
Typical application scope of SAN: electrical (socket, shell, etc.), daily goods (kitchen equipment, refrigerator device, TV base, cassette box, etc.), automobile industry (headlight box, reflective surface, instrument panel, etc.), household goods (tableware, food knives, etc.), cosmetic packaging, etc.
PMMA typical application range: automotive industry (signal lamp equipment, instrument panel, etc.), pharmaceutical industry (blood storage containers, etc.), industrial applications (DVD, light scatterer), consumer goods (drink cups, stationery, etc.).
