Which plastic processing materials are suitable for melt metering pumps?

Melt metering pumps are suitable for a variety of plastic processing materials, including but not limited to the following:

I. Thermoplastic Resins

Polypropylene (PP): A common thermoplastic widely used in packaging, automotive, electronics, and other fields.

Polyethylene (PE): Including low-density polyethylene (LDPE), high-density polyethylene (HDPE), and linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), which exhibit excellent physical and chemical properties.

Polystyrene (PS): A transparent, rigid thermoplastic often used for making tableware, toys, electrical appliance housings, etc.

Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS): Known for its high strength, impact resistance, and good processing properties, it is commonly used in automotive, electronics, construction, and other fields.

Polycarbonate (PC): With high strength, high transparency, and impact resistance, it is widely applied in optical materials, electronics, electrical appliances, medical devices, and other fields.

II. Thermoplastic Elastomers

Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU): Exhibits excellent elasticity, wear resistance, and chemical resistance, often used in footwear, sports equipment, automotive interiors, etc.

Thermoplastic Polyester Elastomer (TPEE): Combines the rigidity of polyester with the elasticity of rubber, offering high strength, high toughness, and chemical resistance.

III. Other Polymers

Nylon (PA): Known for its high strength, wear resistance, and chemical resistance, it is commonly used in fibers, engineering plastics, films, etc.

Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC): With excellent processing properties and chemical resistance, it is widely used in construction, wire and cable, packaging, and other fields.

Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET): Primarily used for making beverage bottles, food packaging, synthetic fibers, etc.

Additionally, melt metering pumps are suitable for processing polyester for chemical fibers, acrylic fibers, celluloses, spandex, and many specialty fibers. These materials have a wide range of applications in textiles, apparel, medical, aerospace, and other fields.

In general, melt metering pumps are suitable for almost all polymers used in the plastics industry, meeting the processing needs of different plastic materials. In plastic extrusion processing, melt metering pumps can provide stable and precise melt flow rates and pressures, thereby improving the quality and production efficiency of extruded products.
