Japan's plastic antibacterial agents cover all types of plastics, with an annual consumption of more than 1.5 million tons. It is the market with the largest per capita use of antibacterial agents, and it will focus on the antibacterial product markets in Europe, America and China.

My country's plastic antibacterial agents have developed rapidly in recent years, and their application fields have been continuously expanding. In 2008, the State Administration of Technology, Quality Supervision and Quarantine successively promulgated and implemented a series of standards for antibacterial and sterilization of home appliances. In 2011, the promulgation of national standards for antibacterial home appliances further regulated the application of antibacterial plastics in the home appliance industry. At present, the domestic demand for antibacterial plastics is 150,000 tons/year, and antibacterial polypropylene occupies an important share in antibacterial plastics, and domestic consumption exceeds 50,000 tons/year.　　

"This amount is not large, because my country did not have compulsory legislation and unified standards on the use of antibacterial materials for home appliances. With the introduction of antibacterial standards for home appliances, the concept of'antibacterial' will become more and more popular. The demand for antimicrobial polypropylene will also increase, and the annual demand is expected to increase by 20% or more." Zhang Shijun, deputy chief engineer of the Beijing Research Institute of Chemical Industry, Sinopec, is confident in the market prospects of antimicrobial polypropylene.

With the increasing awareness of product safety and hygiene, the scale of the global antimicrobial plastics market continues to expand. Related research reports predict that by 2015, the global industrial application market for antimicrobial plastics will reach 1.4 billion pounds, and the value of consumer products will be 1.03 billion pounds, and 20% of global plastic products have antimicrobial functions.

Do you know what an omnidirectional conductive sponge is?

The omnidirectional conductive sponge is a conductive metal plating process based on the sponge. The back of the conductive sponge uses a conductive cloth as the substrate to combine the conductive adhesive with the sponge material, thereby achieving an omnidirectional conductive effect. It uses electroplating on the surface of the sponge to ensure good electrical conductivity, and the outermost nickel layer also increases the corrosion resistance of the material.

Do you know the relationship between conductive cloth tape and conductive cloth?

Conductive cloth adhesive tape is also a kind of adhesive tape made of conductive cloth. Its characteristics are the addition of "glue" characteristics to the conductive cloth, and its important characteristics can be referred to the term "conductive cloth". The "glue" that is commonly desired in the industry is conductive glue, which has a "nickel" component, in order to provide a magnetic shielding effect. However, there are also ordinary acrylic or hot melt adhesives that do not require conductive adhesive, in order to make the conductive cloth have good adhesion.

Where are conductive sponges widely used?

Conductive sponge is a material that mainly uses flame retardant sponge as the base material during the production process; An electronic material made by wrapping a layer of conductive cloth on the surface of the sponge and using a special process.

Are plastic products safe? Can they be heated and used?

Plastic products can be seen everywhere in daily life, but like Ms. Wang, many citizens know very little about the basic knowledge of plastic products. The author interviewed 20 citizens in a number of supermarkets and residential communities and found that 80% of the citizens often use plastic products in their lives, but they do not know how to use plastic materials and how to be safe.

The U.S. plastics processing industry is in a good situation with more optimism

Troy Nix, executive director of MAPP, said that the plastics manufacturing industry has officially recovered from the recession and is moving steadily towards exceeding the pre-recession sales level.
