Plastic granules are input materials for the production of plastic products. These plastic beads are divided into three groups, including:
-Primary plastic.
-Recycled Plastic.
-Bioplastics.
Primary plastic granules are plastic products generated from the fractional distillation of petroleum. Unused virgin plastic beads are often natural white and people can add colorants to make the product have the desired color. Some primary plastic resins such as ABS, PP, PC, PS-GPPS, PA, HIPS, POM, PMMA,….
Primary plastic has high elasticity, soft and flexible properties, resistant to warping and pressure. In terms of aesthetics, primary plastic resins are highly appreciated due to their glossy, smooth surface, bright colors and are often used in production that requires high safety, for example: manufacturing medical equipment, food packaging,… Also used in many other manufacturing industries.
Recycled plastic pellets are products produced from recycled collected plastic of old plastic waste products, This process includes steps of sorting, crushing, cleaning, drying, melting to get the final product. the same plastic is pressed into fibers or into tiny particles. The main types of recycled plastic granules are: PP, PE, HDPE, ABS, PVC, …
As recycled and used plastic beads, the properties of plastic beads will also be greatly reduced.
Recycled plastic is often used as a production material and applied in many industrial, construction or environmental fields.
As recycled and used plastic beads, the properties of plastic beads will also be greatly reduced.
Bioplastic beads are products developed from plants such as starch, protein, cellulose, …. This type of plastic is especially capable of biodegradation, which is considered a solution to overcome pollution from plastic waste. Bioplastics are used in the production of fast food containers such as trays, spoons, forks, straws, packaging, plastic bags, water bottles, etc.
