  2. Plastic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plastic

    For example, since 2010 over US$200 billion has been invested in the United States in new plastic and chemical plants, stimulated by the low cost of raw materials. In the European Union (EU), too, heavy investments have been made in the plastics industry, which employs over 1.6-million people with a turnover of more than 360 billion euros per year.

  3. List of synthetic polymers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_synthetic_polymers

    The plastic kits and covers are mostly made of synthetic polymers like polythene, and tires are manufactured from polybutadienes. [1] However, due to the environmental issues created by these synthetic polymers which are mostly non-biodegradable and often synthesized from petroleum, alternatives like bioplastics are also being considered.

  4. Plastic extrusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plastic_extrusion

    Plastics extrusion is a high-volume manufacturing process in which raw plastic is melted and formed into a continuous profile. Extrusion produces items such as pipe/tubing, weatherstripping , fencing, deck railings , window frames , plastic films and sheeting, thermoplastic coatings, and wire insulation.

  5. Plastics industry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plastics_Industry

    Besides plastics production, plastics engineering is an important part of the industrial sector. The latter field is dominated by engineering plastic as raw material because of its better mechanical and thermal properties than the more widely used commodity plastics.

  6. Polyester - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyester

    With 18% market share of all plastic materials produced, it ranges third after polyethylene (33.5%) and polypropylene (19.5%) and is counted as commodity plastic. There are several reasons for the importance of polyethylene terephthalate: The relatively easy accessible raw materials PTA or DMT and MEG

  7. Polyhydroxyalkanoates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyhydroxyalkanoates

    More than 150 different monomers can be combined within this family to give materials with extremely different properties. [2] These plastics are biodegradable and are used in the production of bioplastics. [3] They can be either thermoplastic or elastomeric materials, [citation needed] with melting points ranging from 40 to 180 °C. [citation ...

  8. Recycling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recycling

    Plastic Pyrolysis can convert petroleum based waste streams such as plastics into quality fuels, carbons. Given below is the list of suitable plastic raw materials for pyrolysis: Mixed plastic (HDPE, LDPE, PE, PP, Nylon, Teflon, PS, ABS, FRP, PET etc.) Mixed waste plastic from waste paper mill; Multi-layered plastic

  9. Polycarbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycarbonate

    Thermally processed material is usually totally amorphous, [7] and as a result is highly transparent to visible light, with better light transmission than many kinds of glass. Polycarbonate has a glass transition temperature of about 147 °C (297 °F), [ 8 ] so it softens gradually above this point and flows above about 155 °C (311 °F). [ 9 ]
