Plastic compounding is a process that allows the melting of a polymer with an additive. The result is a plastic material called special compound. The latter is available in solid, powder, ball or granular form
Acrylic products are primarily composed of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) polymers. These are versatile and indispensable materials in many sectors due to their unique properties. They offer a combination of transparency, durability, and ease of fabrication, making them particularly well-suited for a wide range of applications, from construction to art, including medical devices and packaging.
Thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) are polymer materials that combine the elastic properties of rubber with the melting and moulding properties of thermoplastic plastics. They are flexible and stretchable at ambient temperatures, and can be easily recycled and reprocessed under heat.
