1.ABS（Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene）

Low melting point and easy to shape. It comes in a variety of surface finishes and textures, and its opacity supports the use of colorants. It is considered one of the best materials for Plastic Injection molding due to its impact resistance and strength.

Advantages：Acid resistant, relatively cheap

high strength

2.PA（Nylon polyamide）

PA is a natural synthetic polyamide. It is commonly used in different mechanical parts such as bearings, gears, sliders and bushings.

Advantages: high temperature resistance, wear resistance, low friction coefficient

3.PE（polyethylene）

PE is the most widely used plastic material in the world, injection molded polyethylene is used in Tool boxes, children's toys, cable insulators, wires and components in different medical devices

Advantages: Resistant to chemicals and moisture, wide range of optical clarity

4.PC（polycarbonate）

Polycarbonate plastic is used as a common plastic injection molding material because of its strength, toughness, and clarity. Its properties facilitate its use in transparent windows, light-emitting diodes, mechanical guards and transparent pipes.

Advantages: Very durable, lightweight design, easy to move, supports optical transmission
