ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) |
ABS has very good mechanical properties, dimensional stability, processing ability, chemical resistance, and a high-quality appearance |
It has been widely used in manufacturing machinery, electronic components, electrical and home appliances, auto parts, medical products, food and water contact materials, construction materials, toys and sporting goods, and cosmetics containers. |
ASA |
ASA is a copolymerization of styrene, acrylonitrile, and acrylic rubber. Technically, ASA not only maintained the main characteristics of the ABS, but it also combines the weather resistance advantage of acrylic to extend the product application for outdoor purposes.
weather resistance durability, color stability, and good PC/PVC capability |
Can be applied to automotive parts, construction parts, outdoor sporting goods, gardening parts, outdoor antenna parts, electronic and electrical products, toiletries, etc. In addition, ASA also reduces the secondary coating and electroplating processing costs, allowing its products to have cost-reducing and environmentally friendly features. |
PS(Polystyrene) |
PS resin is a solid polymer formed by heat polymerization of styrene. High Impact Polystyrene (HIPS) is composed of SM and butadiene (BD). HIPS is high-impact resistant and non-transparent |
suitable for home appliances, food and water contact materials, toys, construction materials, and especially appliance housings due to its excellent processability |
PMMA |
PMMA resin is a polymer mainly composed of methacrylate (MMA). It features high cleanliness, crystal-clear transparency, and high gloss, earning it the nickname Plastic Queen for its excellent appearance. It also delivers stable physical, chemical, optical, and electrical properties. |
widely used in the application of electronic panels, mechanical parts, surfaces of watches and clocks, vehicle lights, telecommunication equipment, insulation parts, sunglasses, food and water contact materials, cosmetics containers, and toys |
Polycarbonate |
This resin offers glass-like transparency, high heat resistance, ultra-high impact resistance, and dimensional stability, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. It is also compatible with other materials such as ABS and PET, creating diverse alloy products |
suitable for ethylene oxide and gamma-ray disinfection, and can be applied in medical equipment. This material is also suitable for all 3C products, precision machinery, instrument products, automotive parts, sporting goods, sanitary hygiene products, and food and water contact materials. |
Polycarbonate/A BS |
Balances the properties of polycarbonate (PC) and acryloni-trile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS). The PC component provides high heat resistance, high impact resistance, non-halogen flame retardancy, and high rigidity and tensile strength properties. The ABS component gives better processability, higher impact strength in low-temperature environments, and the ability to be electroplated, dimensional stability, and a high-quality appearance |
This material effectively reduces the visible signs of injection, provides a wider range of injection conditions, and improves the maintenance rate for related equipment. Suitable applications range across transportation, networking, 3C electronics products, TV sets, home appliances, toys, and sporting goods. |
PETG (polyethylene terephthalate) |
Very easy to process, high clarity -good for transparent parts, UV protection, high impact, Excellent chemical resistance |
it is widely used in indoor and outdoor signage, storage shelves, vending machine panels, furniture, construction, and mechanical baffles. |
PE |
heat resistant, and cold resistance, High impact, chemical stability |
it is widely used in Arena boards, bulletproof boards, bottle caps, chemical corrosion-resistant pipeline systems, car fuel tanks, food storage containers, safety helmet |
