Many things around us have common names and elegant names. For example, a green plant commonly known as “Lala seedlings” is elegantly called “humus”. In fact, plastics also have elegant names.
Plastics are monomers as raw materials and polymerized by polyaddition or polycondensation. They have medium resistance to deformation and are intermediate between fibers and rubber. They are composed of synthetic resins and fillers, plasticizers, stabilizers, lubricants. , pigments and other additives. The main component of plastic is resin. Resin refers to a polymer compound that has not been mixed with various additives. The term resin was originally named for the lipids secreted by animals and plants, such as rosin and shellac. Resin accounts for about 40% to 100% of the total weight of plastics. The basic properties of plastics are mainly determined by the nature of the resin, but additives also play an important role. Some plastics are basically composed of synthetic resins, with no or little additives, such as plexiglass.
The elegant name of plastic is: synthetic resin. Synthetic resin is a kind of artificially synthesized polymer compound. It is a kind of resin that has or exceeds the inherent characteristics of natural resin. Its most important application is the manufacture of plastics. In order to facilitate processing and improve performance, additives are often added, and sometimes they are directly used for processing, so they are often synonymous with plastics. In practical applications, they are used synonymously with plastics.
So, friends, when people talk about synthetic resin, remember that they are actually talking about plastic~
