Common Applications of Plastic Parts

The application of plastic products is getting wider and wider due to their good performance which the other materials don't have. The plastic product has all kinds of good properties, which has been widely used in various industries such as agriculture, animal husbandry, construction, cars, avionics and freight logistics packaging. The application development and trend of various plastics is explained in the article.
 
Industrial Fields
In the electrical equipment and electronics industry, the plastic is widely used as insulation materials and packaging materials. In mechanical engineering, the plastic is used to make transmission gears, piston pins and many parts in stead of metal materials, and plastics are used to manufacture vessels and other anticorrosive materils in various chemical engineering.
 
Construction engineering fields
In construction engineering, plastic parts are used as auxiliary parts of other building decoration materials, such as injection molding plastic steel doors and windows, stair guardrails, floor tiles, suspended ceilings, thermal insulation materials, drainage pipes, decorative panels and bathroom accessories. Plastic building materials can not only replace steel and soil, but also have many characteristics that are better than stainless steel plates, aluminum profiles, wood and traditional raw materials, which can save resources, maintain ecological environment protection, improve natural living environment and standards, functions of the building and have good corrosion resistance, light weights and convenient construction. The plastic is an environmentally friendly raw material, which can not only save energy consumption in production, but also avoid waste of energy consumption.
 
National defense technology fields
Whether they are strategic weapons, fighters, ships and warships, rockets, cruise missiles, satellites or other industries, plastics used for injection molding products are indispensable raw materials.
 
Agriculture and animal husbandry fields
With the regulations of the development trend of modern agriculture, the use of plastic parts is also very wide and the variety of plastics is complete in specific applications. The common raw materials at the agriculture and animal husbandry are plastic film, pipes, sheets, ropes, textile bags, etc., most of which are made from polyethylene or PVC, high-pressure polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene or PP through injection molding, extrusion molding and other forming processes.
 
Automotive industries
Plastic parts used in automobiles have become more and more common. Because of the uniqueness of raw materials used in automobiles, plastic parts for automobiles have high requirements on raw materials. There are special requirements on process performance, destructiveness, compressive strength and other aspects.
 
Household appliances fields
The household appliance industry is a key industry for durable goods. China's household appliances will also join the global electrical products to further develop towards the direction of intelligence, intelligent system, zero pollution, environmental protection and energy saving.
