What is Thermoplastic Alloys / Blends?
→ Alloying Modification Purpose & Capabilities:
◆ Plastic alloy refers to two or more polymers with different molecule structures and properties blended into a multi-component compound, which combines the characteristics of each original polymer and impart new properties to the compound. Plastic alloys (also known as plastic blends) by physical compounding or chemical grafting technologies, the original polymers modified to achieve high performance, functionalization and specialization for the end-use applications. Plastic alloys are widely used in automotive, electrical & electronics, home appliances, office equipments, medical and many other fields. Plastic alloying can improve or enhance the properties of original polymers and cut down the material costs, which has become one of the most active species and the rapid growth of consumption in the plastic industry.
