Polyethylene resin
Polyethylene has a structure in which ethylene is polymerized, and has various properties such as low-density polyethylene and high-density polyethylene depending on the manufacturing method and molecular weight.
It is used for applications such as films and containers.
-
Polypropylene resin
Polypropylene is a thermoplastic resin obtained by polymerizing propylene in which one hydrogen of ethylene is substituted with a methyl group.
Cold resistance, transparency, and mechanical properties vary depending on the type of polymerization catalyst and copolymer composition. Among general-purpose resins, it boasts the highest heat resistance, has the lowest specific gravity, and floats on water.
As a general-purpose resin, it has excellent chemical resistance and good heat resistance and water resistance.
It is used in a wide range of applications such as stationery, home appliances, automobile parts, packaging materials, and textile products.

Polystyrene resin
Polystyrene includes transparent general-purpose polystyrene obtained by polymerizing styrene in which one hydrogen of ethylene is replaced by a benzene ring, and milky white High-impact polystyrene whose impact resistance is improved by adding styrene-butadiene rubber.
It is used in packaging films, home appliances such as televisions, and office equipment. Foamed polystyrene is used for blocks and fish boxes.
-
Polyvinylchloride resin
Polyvinyl chloride is a thermoplastic resin obtained by substituting one hydrogen of ethylene with chlorine and polymerizing it. Vinyl chloride resin is classified according to the amount of plasticizer added, and there are two types, hard and soft.
For hard plasticizer, the amount of plasticizer added is small. A large amount of plasticizer is added to the soft material. A typical plasticizer is DOP, but the type of plasticizer is changed according to the required performance.
It is often used for housing construction and civil engineering, and is used for pipes and gutters for hard materials, and for flooring and hoses for soft materials.

Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene resin
ABS resin is an acrylonitrile, butadiene, and styrene copolymer resin with excellent design, mechanical properties, and chemical resistance.
There are various impact grades depending on the blending ratio of butadiene.
It is used for vehicles, sports equipment, leisure equipment, toys and other miscellaneous goods, vacuum cleaners and other home appliances, and OA equipment.
-
Acrylonitrile-Ethylene-Styrene resin
AES resin uses ethylene propylene rubber instead of butadiene rubber, has the same basic characteristics as ABS, and has improved weather resistance.
It is used in applications such as automobile parts, OA equipment, and housing parts.
-
Acrylonitrile-Styrene resin
AS resin is a copolymer resin of acrylonitrile and styrene.
A transparent non-crystalline plastic with excellent rigidity and impact resistance like ABS resin.
Although it is sensitive to heat, it is easy to process.
It is used in home appliances such as refrigerator trays, automobile parts, and daily necessities that take advantage of its transparency and impact resistance.
-
Thermoplastic elastomer
Thermoplastic elastomer is a general term for polymers that have elastic and stretchable properties such as rubber.
It is molded by injection molding and extrusion molding because it softens when heat is applied and returns to a rubber shape when cooled.
There are various types of elastomers such as styrene type and olefin type.
It is not suitable for applications that require heat resistance because it is easily deformed by heat. However, due to its nature, it is used in a wide range of applications from automobiles to daily necessities.
