Special engineering plastics, as the pinnacle of the field of polymer materials, are a class of high-end engineering plastics with characteristics such as high temperature resistance (long-term operating temperature > 150°C), high strength, and corrosion resistance. Their core value lies in achieving metal substitution through unique molecular structure design, playing an irreplaceable role in strategic industries such as aerospace, new energy, and electronic information. Currently, the global industry is undergoing a structural upgrade from general-purpose plastics to high-performance materials. Special engineering plastics, with their revolutionary advantage of "replacing steel with plastics," have become a key material for the transformation and upgrading of advanced manufacturing.

Here is the English translation of the provided text, maintaining the structure, terminology, and nuances: From the Industrial Revolution to the Rise of the Polymer Industry Since DuPont invented nylon and coined the term "NYLON," launched the ZYTEL brand in 1954, and up to the present day, the modified applications of nylon and high-temperature nylon (HTN) in sectors like automotive, electronics, consumer goods, military, and aerospace have spanned over 70 years. However, the foundational equipment for modifying engineering plastics is certainly not something a 300,000 RMB extruder can handle.

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.

Ether-based thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPUs) with excellent hydrolysis resistance Enhanced performance for a wide range of applications Sample-ready experimental grade product BASF presents a new ether-based thermoplastic polyurethane: Elastollan® 1400. The new TPU series offers excellent hydrolysis and microbial resistance, combined with stable processability and good compression set. The material has excellent burst pressure properties and can be processed by extrusion and injection molding. The aging stability of Elastollan® 1400 ensures long-lasting performance – a versatile choice for a wide range of applications.

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.
