Plastic or better glass fiber reinforced plastic better?
Glass fiber reinforced plastics, usually glass fiber reinforced unsaturated polyester, epoxy resin and phenolic resin matrix. Because of the different kinds of resins used, they are called polyester glass fiber reinforced plastics, epoxy glass fiber reinforced plastics and phenolic resin glass fiber reinforced plastics. Its characteristics are: light and hard, non conductive, stable performance, high mechanical strength, less recycling and corrosion resistance. It can be used instead of steel to make machine parts, automobiles, ship shells, etc..
Plastic steel profiles referred to as plastic, the main chemical composition is PVC, so also known as PVC profiles. It is a new type of building material which is widely used. Because of its physical properties such as rigidity, elasticity, corrosion resistance and excellent aging resistance, it is usually used as a good substitute for nonferrous metals such as copper, zinc and aluminum.In housing construction is mainly used for the application of push and pull, flat open doors and windows, rails, pipes and ceiling materials, through the process of the new protection board is also widely used in automobile engine, not only light weight, excellent properties and good toughness, stiffness.
Plastic steel and glass fiber reinforced plastic have their own advantages, in the mechanical manufacturing and vehicles, ships and other industrial fields, glass fiber reinforced plastic is used; in furniture decoration, the use of plastic steel profiles.
