Common small household appliances are electric pressure cooker, induction cooker, noodle maker, steamed bread machine, soybean milk machine, cooking machine, juicer, water boiler, hairdryer, hair straightener, razor and so on. How to rationally apply modified plastic materials to reduce the cost of small appliances and ensure product quality is one of the important ways to occupy the market, a look at the small appliances with material system solutions.
Small appliances with material requirements
Small appliances in the use of the process of frequent contact, easy to wear and tear, long-term contact with water, oil, salt, easy to corrode, long-term use at high temperatures, easy to aging, long-term exposure to light, easy to discoloration, loss of luster, and thus require a strong appearance of the material performance, scratch-resistant performance, easy processing, cost-effective and so on.
Commonly used materials for small appliances
ABS: high gloss, easy to spray, but not high temperature resistance.
PP: low cost, good fluidity, but poor dimensional stability.
PC: high strength, high temperature resistance, good transparency, but easy to crack.
PC/ABS alloy: excellent overall performance, but higher prices.
PET, PBT: high strength, heat resistance, reinforced flame retardant
PPO: low warpage, high heat resistance, boil resistance
PA: heat-resistant, wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant
Spray-free materials for small appliances
Spray-free technology for home appliances reduces pollution and is safer and more environmentally friendly on the one hand. On the other hand, it can also save costs. At the same time rich colors can meet the demand for fashionable and colorful development of home appliances.
Currently on the market a wide range of small appliances, commonly used electric pressure cooker, induction cooker, pasta machine, steamed bread machine, soybean milk machine, cooking machine, juicer, water boiler, hairdryer, hair straightener, razor and so on. These small appliances shell are increasingly using spray-free plastics.
Soybean milk machine, water dispenser, rice cooker: no-spray products with excellent aesthetic effect and excellent appearance, the material has good heat resistance, good dimensional stability, creep resistance, excellent processing performance, reasonable cost-effective and better mechanical properties.
Development trend of small household appliances
Low noise, energy saving and environmental protection, nutrition and health, intelligent Internet of things, convenient and easy to use, humanized and fashionable industrial design.
