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.

As a global leader in the chemical industry, Saudi Basic Industries Corporation has launched its new LNP™ ELCRES™ CXL polycarbonate (PC) copolymer resins, which possess outstanding chemical resistance. These special materials are highly suitable for helping customers in the mobility, electronics, industry and infrastructure markets deal with environmental stress cracking and premature failure that may be caused by increased exposure to corrosive chemicals. Besides having higher chemical resistance than existing materials, the LNP ELCRES CXL copolymer resins can also enhance the durability and reliability of components with excellent low-temperature impact resistance and weatherability.

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.

As a high-performance engineering material, glass fiber composites have shown wide application value in many fields due to their light weight, high strength, corrosion resistance and other characteristics.

The shrinkage rate of plastic reflects the degree of dimensional reduction in a plastic part after it is removed from the mold and cooled. Factors affecting plastic shrinkage include the type of plastic, molding conditions, and mold structure. Different plastics exhibit varying shrinkage rates. Additionally, the shrinkage rate is significantly influenced by the part's shape, complexity of internal structure, and the presence of inserts.

Basic Concept of CLTE The Coefficient of Linear Thermal Expansion (CLTE) is used to characterize the degree of expansion of a material as temperature rises and to assess its risk of cracking under thermal stress. Understanding the relative expansion/contraction properties between different materials in contact is crucial for successful applications.
