Applications of Plastic Beads in Production and Life

Plastic beads are known for many great applications in modern life. In the article below, TAELIM will introduce the material and structure as well as the application in many production days for you to understand clearly.

Overview of plastic beads

Plastic beads, also known as plastic in English, are high molecular compounds that play an important role in modern life. They are the basic raw materials for the production of many types of products serving daily needs, such as tables, chairs, bottles, raincoats, plastic bags, cups, plates, bowls, electrical pipes, and synthetic resins... In addition, plastics are also widely used in modern industries, from domestic production to import and export.

The term “plastic” comes from the Greek word “plastikos,” meaning “suitable for molding,” emphasizing the material’s flexibility and malleability during manufacturing. Plastics can be molded, extruded, or compressed into a wide variety of shapes, from thin films, fibers, sheets, tubes, to bottles, boxes, and more.

Basic structure of plastic beads

Most plastics are organic polymers, the main components of which are similar to wood, paper, or wool. Raw materials for the production of plastic pellets include natural products such as cellulose, coal, natural gas, salt, and especially crude oil. With its durable, lightweight, unbreakable, and diverse color properties, plastic has become one of the modern materials, widely used to replace traditional materials such as fabric, wood, leather, metal, and glass.

More than 50% plastics in plastic products are organic and inorganic compounds, including additives. These additives are often added during the manufacturing process to improve performance, such as increasing the toughness, hardness, softness, or flexibility of the plastic. They also help reduce manufacturing costs by adding inexpensive materials or fillers, making the product cost less per unit weight. Flame retardants are also often added to reduce the flammability of the material. The most common fillers are minerals such as chalk, while dyes are also common additives, although in small amounts, usually in powder, powder, or liquid form.

Applications of plastic beads in life

Plastics are an incredibly versatile material, suitable for a wide range of applications in life and industry. They appear in almost every field, from packaging, construction, textiles, consumer products, to transportation, electronics, and industrial machinery.

Aerospace industry

For the transportation industry, reducing the weight of vehicles such as cars, planes, ships and trains is extremely important to reduce fuel consumption. Plastics, with their light weight and high durability, have become an indispensable element, contributing to optimizing operating performance and saving fuel.

Construction materials

In the construction industry, plastic pellets are increasingly popular due to their versatility and ability to combine a high strength-to-weight ratio. Plastic products such as construction tarpaulins, safety nets, and dust screens are widely used due to their durability, low cost, ease of maintenance, and corrosion resistance.

Applications in electricity and electronics

Plastics are ubiquitous in the electrical and electronics industry and the use of plastic resins also helps save a lot of production costs. From household appliances to complex industrial systems, this material can be used thanks to its good electrical insulation, high durability, and heat resistance.

Plastic packaging

Plastic is an ideal material for the packaging industry. With its versatility, lightness and durability, plastics account for a large proportion of the production of packaging such as bottles, drums, trays, and protective packaging.
