Engineering Plastics is rapidly developed in the the 1950s, engineering plastics with excellent comprehensive performance, rigidity, creep small, high mechanical strength, good heat resistance, good electrical insulation, can be used in the more harsh chemical, physical environment for long-term use, can replace the metal as engineering structure of materials used in the field of materials occupy an important position. Compared with General plastics, Engineering Plastics can achieve higher requirements in terms of mechanical properties, durability, corrosion resistance, heat resistance, and can be processed more conveniently and replace metal materials.
Engineering Plastics are widely used in electronic and electrical, automotive, construction, office equipment, machinery, aerospace and other industries, with the development of materials technology and design technology, Engineering Plastics to replace the use of metal materials more and more, to plastic substitute for steel, to plastic wood has become an international trend.
Engineering Plastics has become the world's fastest growing field of plastics industry, its development not only for the national pillar industry and modern high-tech industry plays a supporting role, but also promote the traditional industrial transformation and product structure adjustment.
The application of engineering Plastics in the automotive field is increasing, mainly used for bumper, fender, fuel tank, instrument panel and other interior, car body, door, car lampshade, fuel pipe, radiator and engine related parts and so on.
In the field of machinery, engineering Plastics can be used for bearings, gears, screw nuts, seals and other mechanical parts and housings, covers, Handwheel, handles, fasteners and fittings, such as mechanical structural components.
In the field of electronic and electrical appliances, engineering Plastics can be used for wire and cable cladding, printed circuit boards, insulating films and other insulating materials and electrical equipment structural parts.
In the field of household appliances, engineering plastics can be used in refrigerators, washing machines, air conditioners, televisions, fans, vacuum cleaners, electric irons, microwave ovens, rice cookers, radios, home theater equipment and lighting fixtures.
In the chemical field, engineering Plastics can be used in heat exchangers, chemical equipment lining and other chemical equipment and pipe and pipe fittings, valves, pumps and other chemical pipelines. The application of engineering plastics to metal substitutes is increasing
