China SABIC ULTEM MD141 Manufacturer, Supplier, Factory

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

First plastic gas tank for commercial vehicles made of BASF's high-performance Ultramid® polyamide, which weighs up to 20 percent less than an aluminum alternative

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 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.

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.

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.
