At present, in all market-oriented, customer-centric environment, in order to improve the competitiveness of their products, manufacturers have invested a great deal of energy in product performance, glue stick quality, low cost, and to maintain good profitability and low cost.
This is mainly through the design, visual appearance or function with the development needs of the new smaller, more sophisticated systems to complete. Part of the economic rationalization is another important industry trends, such as in automobiles,glue gun equipment, electronic and medical fields, as it increases the reliability of end products while reducing overall costs.
For these reasons, plastic alternative to traditional metals and other materials to market products business for many one of the key strategies, and this trend is rapidly accelerating. Because the plastic has more advantages than metal, all of these advantages will bring increased productivity and product advantages.
Plastics replace metal in this huge potential throughout the entire industry, now plastic instead of metal applications have accounted for 15% of the total. With a special shape the development of high performance materials, advanced design and use of tools made to optimize the molding tool, these conditions together will make this alternative greatly promote the development trend.
Medical care.
In the field of functional polymers, medical polymers has become an important branch, and is widely used to diagnose and treat the medical field as the center, a variety of immunological methods currently most used polymer matrix materials, with the artificial physiological function multiple organ systems are also made of polymer materials. According to the practical application of medical plastics, can be divided into production of artificial organs, body repair defects and three categories of medical devices produced materials.
Of medical polymer materials, polyacrylate is the most widely used. Poly methyl methacrylate lightweight, has high mechanical strength, good resistance to moisture performance, long-term use in wet conditions, water-soluble inorganic salts, acid alkali and some have a certain stability, particularly resistance biological aging properties and good biocompatibility, optical performance, high transparency. Commonly used in medicine for cranioplasty materials, artificial bone, artificial joints, chest filling material, artificial joint bone cements, especially in the dentures, denture broader applications.
As a medical plastic materials into fibers and polyester flexible, high strength, heat resistance, bending, corrosion resistance, low water absorption, good biocompatibility, so the fabric widely used in medicine, such as artificial blood vessels , artificial esophagus, artificial tendons, trauma cover protection materials, cardiovascular repair material.
Polyurethane Polyurethane is. Because of micro-phase separation structure, which has good anti-clotting properties, mechanical properties, elasticity, chemical stability, biocompatibility, resistance to bending resistance, fatigue resistance, water resistance, abrasion resistance and radiation resistance.
Life due to silicone has a very close relationship, and the organic silicon compounds can be received with good biological, physiological inertia and resistance to biological aging is the use of a very wide range of medical materials. Such as organic silicone oil used as a blood defoamer, silicone gel for skin scar treatment, silicone medical devices for surface treatment agent.
Sports.
Plastics and rubber in the sports industry, applications include sporting goods, equipment and venue construction. Plastics and rubber materials applied to sports equipment, you can improve the technology content, can help athletes break through the limits of sports and physical fitness. Application of rubber and plastic materials have characteristics, such as rubber and plastic materials in sporting goods with abrasion resistance, slip resistance, flexibility, extensibility and good features, main materials are PU, EVA, TPR, etc.; used in sports equipment like wear rubber material is a strong, comfortable, good elasticity; and venue construction to be used in rubber and plastic materials have to fight, low transparency, good wear resistance and other characteristics, such as acrylic ester emulsion, polyurethane, acrylic compound emulsion.
The use of rubber in the sports industry trend of good elasticity, abrasion resistance, slip resistance and comfort of the polyurethane; anti-heat, cold, snow storms and other multi-functional materials; high elasticity, friction, good, excellent weather resistance and non-toxic green silicon PU.
