After PS toughening, it is called HIPS (High Impact Polystyrene), which refers to high impact polystyrene. Modification improves its impact toughness and reduces brittleness.

Modified plastics are materials with uniform appearance obtained by filling, toughening, strengthening, blending, alloying and other technical means with primary form resin as the main component and additives or other resins that can improve the mechanical, rheological, combustion, electrical, thermal, optical, magnetic and other aspects of performance.

Polypropylene (PP) as an important raw material in the plastics industry, its price fluctuation has been concerned by the market. However, recent polypropylene prices have not risen as expected, and the reasons behind this are worth exploring in depth.

From January to August, the plastic machinery industry completed a total profit of 6.4 billion yuan! Exports were up 18 per cent year on year.

In October 2024, the price index of recycled plastic particles in China was 758.9 points, down 1.6% year-on-year and down 0.1% month-on-month.

Multilayer packaging (MLP) plays a central role in the FMCG industry due to its superior protective properties and ability to extend product shelf life. This packaging technology combines the properties of a variety of materials to form a variety of functional layers, demonstrating excellent water and gas penetration resistance (such as oxygen and carbon dioxide), as well as strong mechanical strength and excellent low temperature resistance. These characteristics give MLPS a distinct advantage in protecting food and reducing food waste.

Are you still struggling to choose packaging materials? We'll explore the pros and cons of PET (polyethylene terephthalate) and PVC (polyvinyl chloride), two popular plastic packaging materials, to help you choose the one that best suits your packaging needs!
