In modern firefighting equipment, the choice of material for helmet visors is of utmost importance. Today, we will delve into two high-performance plastics—PPSU and PSU—and their outstanding performance in firefighter helmet visors and other high-end applications.

Facing rising material costs, manufacturers can significantly cut expenses by switching from traditional painted or two-shot molded automotive B/C pillar trims to high-gloss PC/ASA/PMMA—a paint-free, single-shot solution. This eliminates painting defects, reduces equipment needs, and saves 101 RMB per vehicle (20M RMB/year at scale), while improving heat resistance and design flexibility. Success depends on material-performance alignment, process optimization, and supplier collaboration. Strategic material substitution, not just cheaper alternatives, drives sustainable cost reduction.

In the rapid development of electric vehicles (EVs), battery system safety remains the "Sword of Damocles" hanging over the industry. Thermal runaway, electrical spark ignition, metal corrosion—every minor risk could escalate into a fatal hazard. While traditional flame-retardant materials partially address these issues, their high costs, processing challenges, and corrosive side effects have hindered industry progress. As a global leader in chemical and material science, BASF has revolutionized this safety battle with its Red Phosphorus Flame-Retardant Ultramid® PA6. This breakthrough not only redefines performance standards for flame-retardant materials but also emerges as the ideal choice for EV core components, combining high safety, cost efficiency, and seamless mass production.

​When Unitree H1 from YUSUR Technology twisted in Yangko dance on Spring Festival Gala’s grand stage, Tesla’s Optimus Gen2 deftly assembled circuit boards, and Figure 01 flawlessly crafted latte art, the global tech community witnessed an unprecedented revolution. Let’s explore the polymer material innovations behind seven humanoid robots:

The PC/ABS alloy combines the high strength and heat resistance (110°C) of PC with the easy processability of ABS, widely used in automotive (dashboards, door handles), 3C electronics (laptop casings), communications (5G base station covers), and home appliances. It features UV resistance, flame retardancy (V-0 rating), and dimensional stability. Defects like silver streaks and warping are addressed through drying (120°C ×4h), mold temperature optimization, flow promoters, and structural design. Nano-enhanced (thermal conductivity 1.2 W/m·K) and bio-based modifications (40% carbon reduction) are expanding its applications in new energy and medical fields.

Engineering plastics are better than ordinary plastics in thermal stability, mechanical properties and chemical resistance, and are widely used in automotive, electronic and electrical, aerospace and other fields. Ordinary plastics dominate the field of daily necessities and packaging materials because of their low cost. Both have their own advantages and work together to promote industrial development.
