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 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.

Driven by the rapid development of the electronics and information industry, high-thermal-conductivity plastics are gradually replacing traditional metal heat dissipation materials, gaining widespread adoption in critical fields such as LED lighting, semiconductor packaging, electronics, and automotive electronics.

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.

In the wave of the low-altitude economy, engineering plastics have become an indispensable "unsung hero" for drones and electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, thanks to their lightweight, high strength, and corrosion resistance. From reinforced nylon used in robust fuselages and landing gears, to polycarbonate forming transparent and impact-resistant canopy covers; from the stable performance of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) in high-temperature motor components, to the exceptional strength that carbon fiber composites provide for rotors and primary structures—engineering plastics play a critical role in reducing weight, extending range, structural design, and safety protection. They quietly support the performance breakthroughs and commercial adoption of low-altitude aircraft, serving as a vital foundation for the ascent of this new economic paradigm.

As 5G technology advances, material requirements for communication equipment are becoming more demanding. BASF and SABIC's high-performance plastics excel in high-frequency signal integrity, thermal management, lightweighting, and structural strength, making them ideal for 5G antennas, base stations, and housings. Partner Shanghai Weisa offers full support from material selection to optimization, empowering next-gen devices.
