Plastic Polymers: What are they?


Plastic polymers are materials composed of long chains of repeating molecules called monomers, bonded together by strong chemical bonds. These unique molecular structures give plastic polymers a wide range of properties, making them extremely versatile and suitable for many industrial and everyday applications.

Characteristics of Plastic Polymers

  • Versatility: Due to their chemical structure, polymers can be designed to have different characteristics, such as flexibility, rigidity, or chemical resistance.
  • Lightweight and durable: Plastic polymers are generally lightweight yet durable, ensuring a long lifespan even in challenging conditions.
  • Ease of processing: Polymers can be easily molded, extruded, or molded, making them suitable for a variety of products, from bottles to electronic components.

What are plastic polymers used for?

Plastic polymers find application in a wide range of uses thanks to their ability to be customized for specific needs:

  • Packaging: Used to create protective films, containers, and bags due to their flexibility and strength.
  • Construction: Used for pipes, insulation, and windows due to their resistance to weather.
  • Automotive industry: Employed to produce internal and external vehicle parts due to their lightness and durability.
