Characteristics Of Plastic

Plastic is a kind of polymer compound. According to its different characteristics, it can be used to make objects for different purposes. What are its main characteristics?

1. Most plastics are light, chemically stable, and will not rust.

2. Good impact resistance.

3. It has good transparency and abrasion resistance.

4. Good insulation and low thermal conductivity.

5. General formability, good colorability, and low processing cost.

6. Most plastics have poor heat resistance, high thermal expansion rate, and are easy to burn.

7. Poor dimensional stability and easy to deform.

8. Most plastics have poor low temperature resistance, become brittle at low temperatures, and are easy to age. Some plastics are easily soluble in solvents.
