Useful Information About Plastic Raw Materials
1. What are Plastic Raw Materials?
Plastic raw materials are the base polymers used to manufacture plastic products. They are often supplied in the form of granules, powders, or resins, and can be thermoplastics (re-meltable) or thermosets (permanently hardened).
2. Common Types of Plastics in Indian Markets
| Type | Full Form | Major Uses |
|---|---|---|
| PP (Polypropylene) | PP Raffia, Injection, Film, Copolymer, RCP | Woven sacks, packaging, containers, toys |
| HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) | HDPE Raffia, Injection, Blow Moulding | Crates, bottles, drums, pipes |
| LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene) | LDPE Film | Carry bags, films, liners |
| LLDPE (Linear Low-Density PE) | LLDPE Film | Stretch wrap, pouches |
| HMHDPE (High Molecular HDPE) | Stronger HDPE for bags, pipes | Industrial & carry bags |
| PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) | Soft & Rigid PVC | Pipes, window frames, electrical cables |
| EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) | EVA | Footwear, sports goods, hot melt adhesives |
| Metallocene LLDPE | mLLDPE | High-performance films |
3. Plastic Market Terms You Should Know
- Resin: The base form of plastic before processing.
- Granules: Small pellets used in injection molding or extrusion.
- Compound: Blended resins with additives for better properties (e.g., PVC Compound).
- Virgin Material: First-use material (pure polymer).
