What are the Differences among Plastic, Resin and Rubber?

The ABS plastic locker is made of ABS plastics, and a large-scale injection molding machine is adopted for producing the ABS plastic product by injecting the plastic material into a mould.

The ABS plastic locker has characteristics of being waterproof, moistureproof, anticorrosive, wear resistant, non-toxic and tasteless, bright in color but not easy to fade, never rusty and having long service lives. This kind of plastic locker can be disassembled, so it is convenient to deliver it across the country. Besides, the ABS plastic locker has attractive styles and beautiful appearance, and it's easy to transport the ABS plastic locker. Therefore, the ABS plastic locker has become the main choice of public locker rooms in the last two years.

What is the ABS plastic?
ABS resin is one of the five synthetic resins, and it has impact resistance, heat resistance, low temperature resistance, chemical resistance and good electric performance. It also has advantages of stable product sizes, glossy surfaces and being easy to be processed. In addition, the ABS resin can be processed for the second time. The ABS resin is a kind of thermoplastic engineering plastic which is widely used for mechanical, automobile, textile, construction and other industries. ABS is a kind of terpolymer, and it is usually pale yellow or milk white. It is one of the most widely used engineering plastics.

Broadly speaking, any polymer that can be the processing materials for plastic products is called resin. Resin can be divided into natural resin and synthetic resin. Natural resin is the amorphous organic substance such as rosin and amber coming from the secretion of flora and fauna in nature. Synthetic resin is made from chemosynthesis of simple organics or chemical reaction of some natural product.

Plastics
Plastic is a kind of material that mainly contains resin, and elasticizer, fillers, lubricants, colourants and other additives are auxiliary elements.

Plastics is a synthetic high-molecular compound, and it is made from synthesis or condensation reaction of the plastic monomer. It contains synthetic resin, fillers, elasticizer, stabilizers, lubricants, colourants and other additives, and its main element is synthetic resin. Thus, synthetic resin usually refers to the raw material, while plastic is made from resin through physical or chemical processing.

Rubber
Rubber is a kind of high elastic polymer material with reversible deformation. It has good elasticity at room temperature. Rubber can have great deformation by very small external force, and it can regain its shapes after removing the external force. Rubber belongs to completely amorphous polymers.
