PE (Polyethylene) – Polyethylene is a general thermoplastic with good chemical resistance and elongation properties. PE also have good insulation properties and is one of the material choice for plastic welding application. HDPE and UHMWPE are available for applications with more demanding material properties in terms of mechanical strength. Some of its properties includes:

– Good chemical resistance
– Easy to work on
– Low frictional coefficient
– Good electrical insulation
– High toughness and Stiffness (HDPE/UHMWPE)
– Low moisture absorption (UHMWPE)
– High impact strength (UHMWPE)

Polyurethane(PU) is a material that encompass both the properties of rubber and plastic. PU is highly resistance to abrasion and impact, it also offers a certain degree of elasticity similar to rubber It is also resistant to flex fatigue and have the ability of bear heavy load.

-High Elasticity, Tear Resistance
-Good Load Bearing Capability
-Excellent Abrasion Resistance
-Good Impact Resistance
-Weather Resistance
-Does not react well with Oil and Solvent

PVC is one of the most used general plastic, it has one of the best ratios of economic cost to performance. Application for PVC ranges from applications in daily life all the way to specialized industrial applications. Some of PVC properties include:

– Good dimension stability
– Self-extinguishing
– Electrical insulation
– Corrosion resistance
– Light Weight
– Low Moisture Absorption
