  1. Most Popular Plastic Material In Industry Plastic & their Properties

  2. Worldwide plastic production has been growing as the durable, primarily petroleum-based material gradually replaces materials like glass and metal. Today, an average person living in Western Europe or North America consumes 100 kilograms of plastic each year, mostly in the form of packaging.

  3. 99.6 Global demand for polyethylene will rise 4% per year to 99.6 million metric tons in 2018, valued at $164 billion. Million

  4. POPULAR PLASTIC MATERIAL

  5. #1 POLYETHYLENE PLASTIC

  6. Polyethylene plastics are some of the most common and most used materials in general production worldwide. It is used for a multitude of uses from bottles, food, and general packaging, to more industrial uses such as wear guides, rollers, bushes, chute liners and cutting boards.

  7. Abrasion resistance Very low coefficient of friction Very high surface release properties High chemical resistance Properties

  8. #2 NYLON PLASTIC

  9. Nylon plastic is one of the most commonly used polymers. Today it can be found in high load bearings, wear pads, support and guide wheels, conveyor and tension rollers, wire rope sheaves, buffer, pads, gears to guitar strings, and many other applications.

  10. Excellent bearing properties High impact strength and toughness Low power factor requirements High wear resistance Properties

  11. #3 POLYPROPYLENE PLASTIC

  12. Polypropylene plastic is often used for reliable storage of liquids and foodstuffs. Given its great resistance to chemicals, impact and scratching combined with its resistance to moisture and oxygen permeation, polypropylene is one of the most used materials for keeping areas where food and liquid are being used or stored.

  13. Very high chemical resistance Excellent fatigue resistance Excellent impact resistance Higher scratch resistance compared with Polyethylene HDPE Properties

  14. #4 PVC PLASTIC

  15. PVC plastics have also been known as 'vinyl' when used as flooring or a covering for surfaces. PVC's waterproof and rigid qualities allow it to be used for other applications such electric cable housing, playground equipment, signs, covers and fume cupboards.

  16. Excellent electrical insulating properties Excellent chemical resistance Ease of fabrication Non-conductive Properties

  17. #5 POLYCARBONATE PLASTIC

  18. Polycarbonate plastic is a popular replacement for applications where glass would often be used. Polycarbonate can also be coated to be used as bullet-resistance glass and has been used in banks, cars and fighter jets due to its similarity to glass as well as its intense durability after a coating has been applied.

  19. Excellent impact resistance (250 times stronger than glass) Very good optical properties Can be cold formed in thinner gauges Self-extinguishing Properties
