Modified plastics are widely used across multiple industries, including home appliances, automotive, electronics and electrical equipment, medical devices, rail transportation, and photovoltaics.

  Modified plastics are widely used across multiple industries, including household appliances, automotive, electronics and electrical equipment, medical devices, rail transportation, and photovoltaics, among others.

  Household appliances

  Modified plastics are primarily used in components such as housings and covers for home appliance products, including plastic parts for appliances like refrigerators, air conditioners, and washing machines. In 2024, the demand for modified plastics in the home appliance industry continued to grow, driven mainly by consumer upgrades and trade-in programs aimed at encouraging the replacement of older models with newer, more efficient ones.

  Automotive industry

  Modified plastics, leveraging their lightweight advantages—where 1 kg of modified plastic can replace 2–3 kg of steel—are already being used in automotive applications such as car dashboards, bumpers, and charging station components. Demand from the domestic automotive industry is projected to reach 5.98 million tons by 2026.

  Electrical and Electronics

  Used to manufacture electronic product housings, cables, plugs, and more, meeting the dielectric properties required for high-frequency signal transmission as well as demands for long-term stability.

  Healthcare

  Modified plastics meeting biocompatibility requirements are used in medical devices such as syringes and surgical instruments, as well as in biomedical materials like artificial organs and synthetic joint implants.

  Rail Transit

  Modified plastics are used in components such as door and window frames, and piping systems for rail transit vehicles, offering excellent wear resistance and flame-retardant properties.

  Photovoltaic Industry

  Primarily used as an encapsulating material for photovoltaic modules, it must possess weather resistance and insulating properties.

  Industrial equipment

  Includes wear-resistant gears, pipe seals, and other components, suitable for the industrial equipment manufacturing sector.

What are the processing techniques for modified plastics?

By adding small-molecule inorganic or organic materials (such as fillers, reinforcing fibers, flame retardants, etc.) to polymers, performance can be enhanced through a simple and cost-effective process—making it ideal for improving properties like strength, toughness, and flame resistance.
