The enterprises producing modified plastics are just like the cooking masters, making different dishes with the same raw materials to meet the personalized needs of different customers. The narrow raw material will be applied to modify it through technology, so that it has a variety of characteristics, and used in different fields, this is modified plastics.
"Home appliance enterprises need what performance of the product, we personalized customized for him what kind of products. This is the common aim of many enterprises of modified plastics. Modified plastics were born to meet the needs of different customers.
Modified plastics refer to the plastic products which are processed by means of filling, blending and strengthening on the basis of general plastics and engineering plastics to improve the properties of flame retardant, strength, impact resistance and toughness. The modified plastic parts can not only achieve the strength of some steel, but also have a series of advantages such as light weight, rich color and easy to shape. At present, the basic plastics used for modification are mainly general purpose plastics and some engineering plastics, such as PP (polyethylene), PA and so on.
Modified PP is the current home appliance industry demand **** of modified plastics. It is known that the application of mineral-filled modified PP in home appliances mainly includes: the inner barrel of the wave wheel washing machine and the roller washing machine, the wave wheel and the clothes pick-up port and other parts.

According to wang Yang, business director of goldilocks technology development co., LTD., plastic with fixed size and high transparency is required for the appearance of home appliances, and PP with filling grade is generally used.
The air conditioning
Panels are generally fiberglass reinforced PP or filled PP. In addition, the refrigerator seal is an important energy-saving component, and any basic plastic is difficult to meet the requirements. At the moment, production companies will typically have to

C modification can save energy.
With the increasing demand of home appliances for plastic properties, modified engineering plastics have gradually become the focus of many plastic enterprises. Zhuhai gree
refrigeration
The engineering technology research center said the modified plastics purchased by the company are determined by the performance requirements of air conditioning parts. "We are constantly introducing new technologies to meet the needs of the household appliance manufacturing industry," said huang jingshan, senior director of business management for the consumer products industry of characteristic materials in greater China of basf polyurethane (China) co., LTD.
According to a technician who has worked in the TV industry for many years, the frame of the TV set is generally PC/ABS alloy containing 15% glass fiber, which makes the TV set more stable in size and thinner in thickness. Used to fixed
The liquid crystal
The module plastic frame material of the TV panel is reinforced PC with 15% glass fiber. The rear cover of the TV set is flame retardant PS. The base of the TV set is made of high-light ABS or PC/ABS alloy.
In addition, PMMA is used on high-end refrigerator panels, but the material is brittle and generally not used alone, and needs to be processed and used with other plastics.
Over the years, the market of high-end modified plastics has been occupied by foreign enterprises. However, with the continuous improvement of the production level of domestic modified plastics enterprises, many products can replace the materials of foreign enterprises for complete machine enterprises. It is understood that at present, the domestic modified plastic enterprises mainly have Shanghai goldilocks technology development co., LTD., poly sailong engineering plastics co., LTD., yangzhou huitong
chemical
Technology limited and many other small businesses.
The business director of Shanghai goldilocks technology development co., LTD., which focuses on the production of modified plastics, said that over the years, goldilocks technology has paid attention to research and development, and the technology has gradually matured, and the properties of modified plastics produced can meet the needs of more and more customers. At present, goldilocks technology supply cycle fast, good service, has the strength to compete with foreign enterprises. Goldilocks has cooperated with many home appliance brands in China, such as gree, whirlpool and galanz.
Juxilong engineering plastics co., LTD., which also focuses on modified plastics, accounts for 60% of the company's household appliance business.
In this context, foreign enterprises in China in recent years modified plastics market share gradually reduced. "The threshold of modified plastics industry is very low, many small enterprises have entered this field, from other companies to buy raw materials, simple modification processing, although the performance basically meet the requirements, but product batch stability and process level is still very big gap. "Domestic companies have a clear cost advantage and foreign companies are far behind Chinese companies in this regard. Solway greater China and southeast Asia special polymer business development manager.
At the same time, some non - modified plastics enterprises also joined the production team. The company, which provides customized color and additive solutions for polymer products, has announced the production of another brand, Infinity modified engineering plastics, at its newly expanded facility in suzhou. It is understood that the brand of products through professional filling, strengthening, internal lubrication, electroactivity and pre-coloring of thermoplastic engineering plastics modified.
As the representative of home appliance enterprises, haier also set up its own modified plastics company -- haier kehua engineering plastics national engineering research center co., LTD. Most modified materials required by haier products are supplied by this internal factory. Qingdao haier refrigerator new product development department information research department said: "the production of modified plastic home appliances enterprises are very few, and this is related to the company's strategy. In addition to its own use, haier also supplies modified plastics to some non-home appliance companies.
The application prospect of modified plastics in home appliance industry is broad. On the one hand, China has become the world's home appliance production center, and has a number of very influential production enterprises; On the other hand, industry competition has also prompted enterprises to apply more cost-effective materials, modified plastics have great potential.
Market statistics show that in 2012, the global demand for modified plastics is 125 million tons. That figure is expected to rise to 170m tonnes in 2019. From 2013 to 2019, the compound annual growth rate of global demand for modified plastics will reach 4.7%. It is predicted that the market demand for modified plastics in the asia-pacific region will further expand in the next few years, and the demand for modified plastics will increase to 65 million tons in 2019.
Talking about the development trend of modified plastics in the future, the modified plastics with good quality, low proportion and high cost performance will be more popular in home appliance enterprises.
In order to avoid fires, many countries require the use of household appliances
electronic
Materials used in electrical components must be flame retardant. With the increasingly strict environmental protection laws around the world, the application of halogen-free flame-retardant plastics is the general trend. To this, the personage inside course of study of a home appliance tells a reporter: "2014, what home appliance company pays attention to quite is the fire prevention sex of material and flame-retardant sex." It is known that lanxine has expanded the PocanPBT product series and added the reinforcement material adopting the flame retardant system of organic phosphorus and nitrogen. Solway's TechnylOne technology can achieve UL94V0 level flame retardant under 0.4mm wall thickness.
In addition, thin and easy to shape is also the development trend of modified plastics.
Although the development prospect of modified plastics is optimistic, many home appliance enterprises still point out the problems encountered in the process of cooperation with plastic enterprises. The personage inside course of study says, the plastic that supplies home appliance enterprise at present exists "function is superfluous" problem. For example, if the service life of the refrigerator is 10 years, and the service life of the plastic is 100 years, the excessive performance leads to the excessively high price of the product, which is difficult for the household appliance enterprises to accept, and such cost waste will finally be reflected to the consumers. "
To this, from the design, the promotion of new products to market applications, is a very long process, need at least 4 ~ 5 years, plastic enterprises will not deliberately performance does not conform to product on home appliance enterprise, many products at the beginning of the research and development is not located in home appliance industry, tend to be applied in other industries after a period of time to the home appliance industry. In addition, as home appliance function is more and more diversiform, put forward new requirement to material ceaselessly, original craft is bound to be able to be washed out, plastic enterprise must consider to be dealt with ahead of time market demand makes technical reserve.
To the material property superfluous problem that home appliance enterprise puts forward, the salesperson of ju sailong does not agree with. "In recent years, the competition in the home appliance industry has become increasingly fierce," he said.
Although most business leaders are optimistic about the prospects of the modified plastics industry, many plastics companies plan to scale back their operations in the home appliance industry due to the thin profit margins in the home appliance manufacturing sector
