To get familiar with polymer products, it is necessary to first know what polymer is, and in general, useful and brief information about this topic will be provided to you in this article.

What is a polymer?

It is a kind of macromolecule substance

which is

made of very large molecules and repeating subunits.

The natural and synthetic type of this substance because

Its diverse features are

abundantly used in daily life. Therefore

They are

found everywhere. Made from synthetic plastics such as polystyrene

to natural biopolymers such as DNA and

Proteins are all polymers

which play an essential role in our human lives.

Types of polymers

In general, we have two types of polymers: homo polymers and copolymers

Homo polymer: Polymers made from one type of monomer are classified as homo polymers.

Copolymer: Polymers made of two or more monomers are classified as copolymers.

Copolymers also have two subcategories: random copolymer and block copolymer

Random Copolymer:

In this type of copolymer,

the monomers

are

repeated without any particular order along the polymer chain.

The polymer product that we bring for example for this category of polymers, Therefore

Polypropylene is a random copolymer

which is

significantly used in

the production of construction plastic pipes.

Block copolymer:

In this type of copolymer,

monomers of the same

shape are

attached to each other.

For example, the polymer product that we can bring for this category of copolymers, Therefore

Polypropylene is a block

copolymer used in the automotive industry

which is significantly

used in the

production process of bumpers, dashboards and trims inside the car.

What are polymer materials and what are their uses?

As mentioned, polymer

materials are called materials

whose molecular structures have repetitive components. Therefore

For example, polyethylene is one

of the most widely used polymer materials

which has many uses in different industries and is produced from ethylene gas. Therefore

Another one of the most widely used polymer materials around the world is PVC pipe

which is used in various industries. Polymer materials

They have unique physical, chemical and mechanical properties

which cause their use to increase and develop every day.

Among the most important uses of polymer materials, the following can be mentioned:

Use in all types of rail, public, air and military transportation
Construction industry in order to reduce energy consumption, insulation and fireproof coatings
Use in petrochemical industries, dyeing, coating, etc.
Automotive industry for the production of seats, glass, tires, sealants, etc.
Use in the food industry to produce various packaging and consumption containers
Used in the textile industry for the production of polymer fibers, heat-resistant polymers, protective clothing and shoes
Use in the electrical industry to produce composite pipes and various conductive polymers
Medical industry for the production of all kinds of Nano polymers, tissue regeneration, wound dressing, etc., for use in the civil, road construction, aviation, military, etc. industries.

 

Classification of polymers

In general, they are divided into two major sub-categories: thermoplastics and thermosets

Thermoplastics:

They include a large part of polymers

which are also known as plastics or plastic materials.

Thermoplastics are melted by heat

And due to the cold, they become solid again. Therefore

This category of polymers because of the ability

The recycling they have is also beneficial for the environment.

Thermostats:

Unlike thermoplastics, thermosets do not melt and harden due to heat.

Therefore, they cannot be recycled

and because of the damage they can do to the environment

have, their production is decreasing. Therefore

Different types of polymer products that include

Adhesives, resins and paints

are also included in this category.

Polymers and environmental concerns

The reason for the sensitivity of reset environmental activists is about its polymer materials

which humans cause by leaving plastic parts and polymer products in the lap of nature

So that animals like birds have problems by swallowing these polymer products

And also because polymer products remain in nature for thousands of years

And if they are not practiced,

they cause problems for the environment. Therefore

To solve these concerns, the production of polymer products

which are made

of thermostats

It is greatly

reduced and more

plastics are

used Because

plastics can

be

recycled

And they can

be

reused. But it should be

noted that increasing

the culture of correct use of polymer materials and products

To be at the top of affairs so that the environment is safe from pollution.

polymer

Polyethylene film grade

Polyethylene is a derivative of ethylene,

which is

formed by the combination of crude oil and natural gas. Abbreviated, this polymer group is known as PE. Polyethylene are usually used purely and of course have a wide range of usage and applications. Therefore

Polyethylene are those polymer materials that are called thermoplastic. Therefore Thermoplastics are materials that turn into a pasty and liquid state in the presence of heat and reach the melting point, and solidify in the absence of heat and freezing point. Therefore  Read more…

Injection grade polyethylene

Injected heavy granule, or injected heavy

polyethylene, is

a type of polyethylene granule

that is

included in the

heavy polyethylene polymer group. Therefore

As it is clear from the name

of this product, it is

used for the injection molding process. Polyethylene have different models. Some are flexible and others are rigid. Injected heavy polyethylene has high hardness, chemical resistance, non-permeability, and dielectric properties. Therefore

The higher the density of this product, the stronger, stiffer and heat resistant the plastic becomes.

Although this product has

less impact resistance than light polyethylene,

its resistance to chemicals is good as well as

its resistance to environmental breaking stresses;

In other words, it can be said that injected heavy polyethylene has good performance in terms of tensile strength, chemical resistance, heat, surface hardness and wear resistance. Therefore Read more…

Polyethylene grade film with special weight

Polyethylene is one of the most

widely used polymers in the plastic industry,

which is

produced from linear

monomer polymerization. This polymer is

divided into

three main groups: heavy, linear and light polyethylene. Therefore Read more…
