2022-09-23 13:46:19 Industry dynamics 阅读:2

Polymer automotive materials have many advantages that traditional materials have not had before. It is mainly manifested in light weight, good decorative effect, multiple practical application functions, good physical and chemical properties, easy processing and molding, energy conservation, sustainable utilization, etc. The main characteristics of polymer automotive materials are as follows.

1. Light weight

One of the outstanding advantages of polymer automotive material Z is its light weight and high strength. As the average proportion of various plastics is only 15-20% of ordinary steel, it is also lighter than ordinary wood. This feature is particularly outstanding for high-end large cars, which can reduce a lot of dead weight.

2. Good processing performance

Polymer automotive materials have very good processing properties. Due to the plasticity of polymer automotive materials and their good compatibility with other materials, different material components can be used to process polymer automotive materials with different shapes, different properties, different colors and different functions through extrusion, injection molding, calendering, molding, blow molding and other methods with the help of various modern molding processing machines, such as directly extruding into pipes, profiles and plates, Injection into products with various shapes, calendering into films, etc., can also be made into products with various colors, interlayer, hollow, embedded parts and other products according to needs, and can also be processed again according to requirements, such as turning, punching, cutting, welding of mechanical product samples, hot melting, cold sawing, composite, etc.

3. Excellent comprehensive physical and chemical properties

Another advantage of polymer automotive materials is that they have multiple functions and can be used in special occasions. In addition to plasticity, most polymer materials have many excellent physical and chemical properties. Plastic has good insulation performance, excellent anti-corrosion performance, aging resistance, good wear resistance and scrub resistance, good waterproof performance and mechanical performance, and good bonding performance. It is processed into various automotive interior and exterior trim parts that require various properties and functions.

4. Excellent decorative effect

The outstanding advantage of polymer automotive material Z is its excellent decorative effect. It can be processed into products with complex shapes and various colors at one time. Sometimes it also needs to be printed, pasted, embossed, laminated and colored. It can be processed into very realistic images, patterns and patterns. It can imitate the textures of natural wood, metal and animal skin, and can also be gilded, pasted, silvered and inlaid on the surface.

5. Energy conservation and environmental protection

Another advantage of polymer automotive materials is that they can save energy and promote environmental protection. Because it can replace a large number of natural materials, it can save a large number of resources accordingly, play the role of protecting forest and stone resources, and do not damage more ecological environment. It has the social value of energy conservation and environmental protection significance. At the same time, due to the convenience of plastic processing and molding, the energy required for manufacturing polymer cars is far less than that for processing natural materials with the same function, such as steel, animal skin, etc., which can save a lot of labor and energy. The plastic used for most automotive materials is thermoplastic, and its waste materials can be easily recycled and directly remanufactured, which makes polymer automotive materials go on the clean production road of sustainable processing, with extremely positive environmental significance.
