The application of PCR raw materials from the smart home appliance exhibition


 

 

The three-day "Guangdong made Guangdong strong Guangdong trade global" joint action to promote consumption of Zhongshan smart home appliances in Huangpu International Convention and Exhibition Center is in full swing. More than 600 enterprises participated in the event, Galanz, Omar, Changhong, TCL, Gree, Huadi and other local home appliance giants were all present. It is estimated that more than 50000 new products will be displayed on the spot, and more than 35000 professional visitors will visit, negotiate and cooperate.

 

This special event for smart home appliances has a scale of 35000 square meters and has 6 theme pavilions. In order to create a large platform for domestic and foreign trade, production, supply and marketing, efficient docking between upstream and downstream, and mutual drive, the organizer has specially set up Hall 6 as a boutique kitchen and bathroom and home appliance supply chain pavilion. Our booth is located in Hall D46, Hall 6. As the only supplier of PCR raw materials, our booth has attracted the attention of exhibitors and visitors, leaving business cards and adding WeChat... with a wave of interaction.

 

Shi Zong introduced the application case of PCR raw materials in smart home appliances to the onlookers. Environmentally friendly recycled material products through the terminal customer practical application feedback, after several technical and formula improvement and optimization, has been applied to a large number of end products of many customers, resulting in good social value and economic benefits. On May 12, 2022, it passed the scientific and technological achievements appraisal of Dongguan High-tech Industry Association and obtained the authoritative scientific and technological appraisal certificate. At present, the high-purity separation and utilization of PP,HIPS and ABS in household appliances can reach 98% purity. The recycled plastics industry has opened up a recycling road from dismantling waste household appliances to modification of recycled plastics. Take our company as an example, the annual output of environmentally friendly recycled materials will reach 3000 tons in 2021, which can reduce carbon emissions by about 1680 tons. In the future, we will increase investment and explore the development of renewable materials, use less materials and energy as much as possible, emit less carbon, walk out of our own green and low-carbon road, and create higher product value.

 

The author observes that this exhibition has given a clear signal. With the further development of intelligent trend, intelligent household appliances have gradually penetrated, with the penetration rate of intelligent color TV reaching 55% and intelligent air conditioning reaching 24% in 2022. Home appliance intelligence is still the key means of product innovation, with the further development of intelligence, home appliance replacement cycle or will shorten, industry incremental demand or will accelerate the promotion. With the need for thinness and cost reduction of home appliances, the application and proportion of environmentally friendly modified plastics in home appliances is increasing. It is conservatively estimated that the growth rate of demand for modified plastics in the home appliance industry in the next few years will at least maintain the average growth rate of the three major white goods in the previous years. Especially in the field of small appliances, kitchen utensils, personal care and other products, are used in modified plastics. Looking ahead to 2023, a new round of home appliances to the countryside and the new trend of smart home appliance consumption, ABS as a key component material for home appliances, the demand side or will be strong support.

There are many categories of small household appliances at this smart home appliance exhibition, including microwave ovens, rice cookers, electric irons, electric heaters, vacuum cleaners, electric fans, hair dryers, drinking fountains, induction cookers, electric hot pots, electric kettles, air humidifiers, electric shavers, Soymilk machines, juicers, coffee machines, etc., are endless. The appearance is also full of tricks, dazzling people's eyes. Appearance parts mainly with plastic materials are:

 

ABS: high gloss, easy to spray, ABS ordinary grade can be used in washing machines, TV housings, printers, telephone housings, toys, fax machines, audio housings, vacuum cleaner housings, cosmetic boxes, etc. XL100A fire rating can be applied to the computer peripheral products shell; Home appliance controller shell; Other contact parts with the power supply electrical switch, circuit breaker shell, etc.

 

PP: low cost, good fluidity, PP plastic has good electrical properties to make many electrical parts.

 

PC: High strength, high temperature resistance, good transparency, used in home appliances, including TV, radio, washing machine, refrigerator, telephone, air conditioning and other shell and internal components.

 

PC/ABS alloy: excellent comprehensive performance, but the price is higher. Mainly used for TV shell thin-walled products, automotive audio and video systems, anti-screw hole burst, electronic appliances, electroplating grade, helmets, sporting goods, charger shell, power adapter shell, outdoor energy storage products, new energy vehicle piles, mobile phone shell, computer shell, etc.

 

Decorative parts of small household appliances are mainly made of transparent materials: transparent ABS, PMMA, PC, etc. Electroplating material: electroplating grade ABS; Film material: PET film, PC film.

 

The main materials used for 3C key parts are flame retardant PBT, flame retardant PP and flame retardant PPO. Other key structural parts are mainly made of POM, glass fiber reinforced nylon, PPS, PPA and PEI.
