In addition to the plastics that I shared with you in the last issue, what other new materials are there?
New Plastic New Bulletproof Plastic: A Mexican research team has recently developed a new bulletproof plastic that can be used to make bulletproof glass and bulletproof clothing at 1/5 to 1/7 the quality of traditional materials. This is a specially processed plastic substance that is super ballistic compared to normal structural plastic. Tests have shown that the new plastic can withstand bullets with a diameter of 22 mm. The usual bulletproof material will be damaged and deformed after being hit by a bullet, and can no longer be used. This new material is temporarily deformed after being hit by a bullet, but it quickly returns to its original shape and can continue to be used. In addition, this new material can evenly distribute the impact of bullets, thereby reducing damage to the human body.
New plastic noise reduction plastic: Recently, a US company has used renewable polypropylene and polyethylene terephthalate to create a new base material for moldable auto parts that can reduce noise. The material is mainly used in the body and wheel well liners to create a barrier layer that absorbs the sound inside the car cabin and reduces noise by 25% to 30%. The company has developed a special one-step production process. , organically combine recycled materials and untreated materials, and make the two materials become a whole through lamination and acupuncture methods.
The development of new plastics is changing with each passing day. With the development of science and technology, we will enjoy more and more convenience brought by new plastics to life. In addition, we should continue to maintain the rational use of plastic products to prevent environmental pollution and waste!
