Plastic resins are the raw materials used to create plastic products. They vary in composition, properties, and applications, playing a crucial role in industries worldwide.
Common types include PET (bottles), HDPE (containers), PVC (pipes), LDPE (bags), PP (packaging), and PS (foam). Each has unique characteristics suited for different uses.
Plastic resins differ in strength, flexibility, heat resistance, and recyclability. Choosing the right resin impacts durability, sustainability, and environmental footprint of plastic products.
Advancements in biodegradable resins and improved recycling methods are shaping a greener future. Innovations in plastic production focus on reducing waste and environmental harm.
