We will be keeping a close eye on the ever-evolving super engineering plastics.
In a sustainable society, there is an ever-increasing
demand for improved environmental performance and
value in products.
It has excellent strength, heat resistance,
and flame retardancy.
It is a high-performance material
used as a replacement for metals.
It may even be used in special conditions that
require performance that metals do not have.
Let's take a look at the role of engineering plastics,
a key player in
expanding the possibilities of plastics.
It is a material that can replace metal and glass.
It was developed to mass-produce a variety of
products, in response to the demand for
"cheapness, lightness, and easy processing."
More than 60% of the approximately 400 million tons of plastics
produced annually in the world is general-purpose plastics.
It is widely used around the world because it is easy processing
and inexpensive.
Bioplastics is a general term for biomass
plastics and biodegradable plastics, and are
not made from petroleum-derived resources.
Biomass plastics are made from renewable
biological resources.
Biodegradable plastics are plastics that are
broken down into water and carbon dioxide by
microorganisms in nature after use.
There is one of the way of solving problems
that will allow us to continue using plastics
products in the future.
