Extruded plastics are a type of plastic material that is produced through the extrusion process. This process involves melting raw plastic material and forcing it through a die to create objects of a fixed cross-sectional profile. The resulting products are widely used across various industries, including construction, automotive, packaging, and consumer goods, due to their versatility, durability, and cost-effectiveness.

Here are some key types of Extruded Plastics:

• Polyethylene (PE)
  • High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE): Used in pipes, bottles, and plastic lumber.
  • Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE): Commonly used in plastic bags, film wraps, and tubing.
• Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)
  • Widely used in building and construction materials such as pipes, window frames, and vinyl siding.
  • Also used in consumer goods, packaging, and medical products.
• Polystyrene (PS)
  • Used in packaging materials, disposable cutlery, and insulation.
  • Available in both solid form (used in products like CD cases) and foam form (e.g., Styrofoam).
• Polypropylene (PP)
  • Used in automotive parts, packaging, textiles, and consumer products.
  • Known for its chemical resistance and toughness.
• Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS)
  • Commonly used in automotive components, electronic housings, and consumer goods like toys (e.g., LEGO bricks).
• Polymethyl Methacrylate (PMMA)
  • Also known as acrylic, used in applications like signage, light diffusers, and display stands.
