Description

Definition and Scope:

Commodity thermoplastics are a category of plastics that are produced in high volumes for everyday applications and are characterized by their low cost and sufficient mechanical properties for non-critical performance applications. These plastics are widely used in mass-produced items and single-use products such as drink bottles or packaging films. The defining features of commodity thermoplastics include their ability to be molded and reshaped multiple times without compromising their integrity, due to their molecular structure that allows them to soften and harden repeatedly when subjected to heat. Examples of commodity thermoplastics include polyethylene (PE), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polypropylene (PP), and polystyrene (PS), which are used in applications ranging from packaging materials to medical devices. These materials are selected for their specific desirable properties, such as chemical resistance, lightweight, and ease of processing, making them suitable for a broad range of consumer and industrial applications.
