China SABIC LEXAN HPH4504 Manufacturer, Supplier, Factory

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.

​Recently, domestic polymer materials leader VISA officially released its innovative application solutions for polyphenylene oxide (PPO)-based materials in the automotive sector. This series of products, based on high-performance blends of PPE and PS, has developed over 20 differentiated grades tailored to the needs of new energy vehicles and traditional automotive components, demonstrating breakthrough progress in lightweighting, safety, and functional integration.

BASF compounds are advanced materials used in various industries for manufacturing high-performance products. But what exactly is a BASF compound, and why is it so important in the production of plastics, automotive parts, and other components? In this blog, we’ll explore the significance of BASF compounds and how they are changing the way products are made.

Since New Year's Day in 2025, the trading atmosphere in the plastics market has gradually weakened, and there is a strong wait - and - see sentiment in the market. However! The ex - factory quotation of Zhenjiang Chi Mei ABS has been raised by 400 yuan per ton. The ex - factory quotation of Ningbo Formosa Plastics ABS has been raised by 100 yuan per ton. Ultimately, this trend is driven by the three major raw materials. Not only has butadiene achieved a single - day increase of 1000 yuan, but the price of acrylonitrile has also been rising continuously, making it difficult for the price of ABS to decline. Butadiene: Soaring by 1000 yuan in a single day

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.

In modern industry and everyday life, friction and wear of mechanical components consume energy, shorten equipment life, and can also cause annoying noise. How can you achieve smoother gears, more durable bearings, and quieter equipment? The application of self-lubricating plastic materials provides an innovative solution to this dilemma. This material not only retains the advantages of traditional plastics, such as light weight and easy molding, but also "self-lubrication", becoming an effective means for mechanical engineers to solve friction and wear problems.
