The difference between resin and plastic
Plastic refers to the resin (or in the process of using monomer polymerization) as the main ingredient, such as plasticizers, fillers, lubricants, additives such as colorants as auxiliary components, can flow in the process of forming materials.
Thus, the resin is one of the raw materials of plastic, plastic is the finished product of resinIn other words, the resin is not formed and molded into plastic
The resin is heated usually a softening or melting range, softening tendency to flow under the external force, room temperature is solid, semi-solid, sometimes can be a liquid organic polymer. Broadly speaking, any polymer can be used as raw materials for plastic products are called resins.
