Compared with general plastics, engineering plastics can meet higher requirements in mechanical properties, durability, corrosion resistance, heat resistance, etc., and can be processed more easily and can replace metal materials. Engineering plastics are widely used in electronic and electrical, automobile, construction, office equipment, machinery, aerospace and other industries. Replacing steel with plastics and wood with plastics has become an international trend. Engineering plastics has become a fast growing field in the world plastic industry. Its development not only supports the national pillar industry and modern high-tech industry, but also promotes the transformation of traditional industries and the adjustment of product structure.

Engineering plastics are increasingly used in automobiles, mainly as bumpers, fuel tanks, instrument panels, body panels, doors, lampshades, fuel pipes, radiators and engine related parts.

In machinery, engineering plastics can be used for mechanical parts such as bearings, gears, lead screw nuts, seals, and mechanical structural parts such as shells, cover plates, hand wheels, handles, fasteners, and pipe joints. Ppa manufacturer

In electronic and electrical appliances, engineering plastics can be used for covering wires and cables, printed circuit boards, insulating films and other insulating materials and structural parts of electrical equipment.

In household appliances, engineering plastics can be used in refrigerators, washing machines, air conditioners, televisions, electric fans, vacuum cleaners, electric irons, microwave ovens, rice cookers, radios, combined audio equipment and lighting appliances.

In chemical industry, engineering plastics can be used in chemical equipment such as heat exchangers and chemical equipment linings, and in chemical pipelines such as pipes, pipe fittings, valves and pumps.

Due to the rapid development of automobile, electronics, construction and other industries in China, China has become a country with fast growth of global demand for engineering plastics. According to the analysis, with the continuous development of the domestic economy, the demand for engineering plastics will further increase, and the development prospect of China's engineering plastics industry is very broad. In the household appliance industry, the annual demand for engineering plastics for refrigerators, freezers, washing machines, air conditioners and various small household appliances will reach about 600000 tons. The amount of engineering plastics used for communication infrastructure construction and railway and highway construction is even more amazing, and the total demand is expected to reach more than 4.5 million tons in the next few years.

In 2010, China's consumption of engineering plastics reached 2.443 million tons, up 11% year on year, making it a country with fast growth in global demand; In 2011, China's consumption of engineering plastics was 2.72 million tons, up 11.34% year on year. It is estimated that the consumption of engineering plastics in China will reach 3.37 million tons by 2013 and 4.17 million tons by 2015. Ppa manufacturer
