Application of plasticizers in plastics

1. Packaging industry

Plasticizers are widely used in the packaging industry. Plastic packaging films, plastic bags, food packaging and other products usually need to have a certain degree of softness and plasticity to meet the packaging needs of different shapes and sizes. Plasticizers can give these plastic products better ductility and processability, making packaging more convenient and practical.

2. Children's toys

Children's toys are usually made of plastic, and the application of plasticizers makes toys safer. By adding plasticizers, plastic toys can become softer, reducing the brittleness of toys and the possibility of fragmentation, thereby reducing the risk of injury to children.

3. Medical devices

In the manufacture of medical devices, many plastic products need to have good flexibility and durability so that medical staff can better operate and use them. The application of plasticizers can increase the softness and ductility of these plastic products, making them easier to manipulate, such as medical infusion tubes, medical gloves, etc.

4. Construction and building materials

In the field of construction and building materials, plasticizers are widely used to manufacture plastic floors, plastic tiles, plastic pipes and other products. These products need to have a certain degree of flexibility and durability. The application of plasticizers makes these plastic products easier to process and install, and also enhances the durability of the products.

5. Automobile industry

In automobile manufacturing, the application of plasticizers can improve the processability and softness of plastic parts, thereby reducing manufacturing costs and improving the performance of automobile parts. Many automobile parts, such as interior trims and headlight covers, use plasticizers to increase the plasticity and durability of plastics.

6. Electronic and electrical products

In the manufacture of electronic and electrical products, plasticizers are widely used to produce plastic housings, plastic cables, etc. These products need to have a certain degree of softness and plasticity in order to adapt to complex design requirements and assembly requirements.
