Plastic products and rubber products are the two most commonly used products in daily life. What are the differences between these two products? As a professional manufacturer, let me introduce you below. The most essential difference between plastic and rubber is that plastic deformation is plastic deformation, while rubber is elastic deformation. In other words, it is not easy to restore the original state after the plastic is deformed, and the rubber is relatively easy. The elasticity of the plastic is very small, usually less than 100%, and the rubber can reach 1000% or more. The molding process is completed after the molding process is completed, and the vulcanization process is required after the rubber molding process is completed.
Plastic and rubber belong to the same polymer material. They are mainly composed of carbon and hydrogen atoms. Others contain a small amount of oxygen, nitrogen, chlorine, silicon, fluorine, sulfur and other atoms. Their properties are special and their uses are special. At room temperature, the plastic is solid, very hard and cannot be stretched and deformed. The hardness of the rubber is not high, it is elastic, it can be stretched and lengthened, and the stretching can be restored to its original state. This is due to their different molecular structures. Another difference is that plastic can be recycled and reused multiple times, while rubber can not be recycled directly. It can only be processed into reclaimed rubber before it is available. The morphology of the plastic at 100 degrees to 200 degrees is similar to that of rubber at 60 to 100 degrees. Plastic does not include rubber.
The above is the difference between the rubber and plastic products listed for everyone. I hope that you can choose the right products according to your needs.
