In Daily plastic household products manufacturing, a variety of plastic materials are frequently used due to their unique properties and wide range of applications. what are the materials used to make plastic?In this blog, LEBO will show your 7 common plastic materials and their typical applications in household products.

What is Plastic

Plastic is a type of material that is made of synthetic or natural polymers through heating, pressurization, and other processes. Due to its excellent plasticity, plastic can be processed into products of various shapes and uses. Plastic materials have the advantages of lightweight, high strength, corrosion resistance, and easy processing, and are widely used in various fields such as industry, daily life, and medical treatment.

The main components of plastics are high molecular polymers, including polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), etc. These polymers are chemically synthesized and have unique molecular structures and properties.

9 Common Plastic Materials

Plastics are made of various materials, and the differences between different materials are mainly determined by their chemical composition and molecular structure. The basic ingredient of each plastic is a polymer, but different polymer types and additive formulations give them unique properties and uses. Although the various types of plastics have significant differences in properties, they also share some common properties, such as being lightweight, strong, corrosion-resistant, and easy to process.

Next, we will explain in detail the characteristics and applications of different plastic materials to help you better understand the advantages and scope of the application of various plastic materials in actual use.

Polypropylene (PP)

Feature:

It is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic with high impact resistance, strong mechanical properties, and resistance to various organic solvents and acid and alkali corrosion.

With a melting point as high as 167℃, it is the only plastic product that can be placed in a microwave oven (but please note that the lids of some products may not be made of PP and cannot be placed in a microwave oven together).

Application:

Packaging categories: soy milk bottles, yogurt bottles, microwave lunch boxes. Storage boxes, etc.

Daily necessities: wash basin, bucket, clothes hanger, water cup, etc.

Furniture: some lightweight chairs, tables, etc.

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET)

Feature:

It is non-toxic, odorless, and hygienic and safe, but it is easily deformed when the temperature reaches 70°C and may release harmful substances.

Application:

Packaging: Commonly found in mineral water bottles, carbonated drink bottles and other beverage containers.

Daily necessities: cosmetic storage boxes, crisper boxes, etc.

Screen protector: Protective film for mobile phone screens, tablet computer screens, etc.

Polyvinyl chloride (PVC)

Feature:

It has excellent plasticity and is cheap, but its heat resistance is poor and harmful substances are easily produced at high temperatures.

Application:

Although PVC is rarely used in food packaging, it can still be seen in household items, such as some cheap shower curtains, water pipes, wire and cable sheaths, etc.

Polyethylene (PE, especially low density polyethylene LDPE)

Feature:

The texture is soft, has a certain degree of transparency, and is non-toxic. However, some processing or modification additives used in production may be toxic.

Application:

Food packaging materials such as cling film and plastic film.

Plastic bags, garbage bags and other daily necessities.

Polystyrene (PS)

Feature:

Colorless, odorless, tasteless and shiny transparent solid, flammable and will produce toxic gases when burned after foaming.

Application:

Foam molded products: such as bowls of instant noodle boxes, fast food boxes, etc. However, please note that they cannot be heated in a microwave oven.

Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS)

Feature:

Easy to process, easy to paint and color, it is a thermoplastic engineering plastic with extremely wide uses.

Non-toxic, but relatively poor heat resistance.

Application:

Housings of household appliances: such as washing machines, air conditioners, refrigerators, etc.

Toys: Toys made of ABS are non-toxic, odorless, high in hardness and toughness, and are a common material for children’s toys.

Polycarbonate (PC)

(Note: Although PC is restricted in some cases due to bisphenol A issues, it still has applications in food contact areas): It has high transparency and is used to make some products that require high transparency. Such as water bottles, etc.

Polyamide (PA)

Commonly known as nylon, it has good comprehensive properties and is widely used in machinery, automobiles, electrical appliances, and other fields. In the home, nylon ropes, nylon socks, etc. are also common items.

PPSU (polyphenylene sulfone resin) and Tritan (copolyester)

These materials are commonly used to make baby bottles, water cups, etc., and are popular for their high-temperature resistance, non-toxicity, and easy cleaning.

To Sum Up

Different plastic materials are widely used in all aspects of household products due to their unique properties, from packaging materials to daily necessities, to furniture and electrical appliance casings. When selecting and using, reasonable choices should be made based on specific needs and material characteristics.
