Types of Engineering plastics In last blog I discussed about the types of plastics the main type in its engineering plastics, why because it’s only mostly used in wide range in present life. Thermoplastics only play an important role the engineering plastics are derived as engineering thermoplastics.             Engineering Thermoplastics are a subset of plastic materials that are used in applications generally requiring higher performance in the areas of heat resistance, chemical resistance, impact, fire retardancy or mechanical strength. Many kinds of thermoplastic are used for engineering purpose here I’m going the discuss about most important type of thermoplastics which is used in wide range they are. Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene (ABS): ABS ( Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene) is an opaque thermoplastic polymer material made from the monomers Acrylonitrile, 1, 3-Butadiene and Styrene. Strong and durable even ...

Types of plastics Bio-based plastics: These polymers are synthesized by living organisms, essentially in the form in which they are finally used. Examples of naturally produced bio-based polymers include; • cellulose / starch • proteins • bacterial polyhydroxyalkanoates after extraction and purification, direct industrial exploitation is possible. Mainly Used in automotive interior and exterior, consumer electronics and furniture. Biodegradable plastics: Biodegradable plastics are plastics that are capable of being decomposed by bacteria or other living organisms. Two basic classes: Plastics made from petrochemicals with biodegradable additives which enhance biodegradation Bio plastics, whose components are derived from renewable raw materials, Thermoplastics: A thermoplastic is a type of plastic made from polymer resins that becomes a homogenized liquid when heated and hard when cooled. When frozen, however, a thermoplastic becomes glass-like and subjec...
