Plastics are a diverse group of synthetic or semi-synthetic materials that primarily consist of polymers. Their malleability allows them to be molded, extruded, or pressed into a variety of solid shapes.
The raw materials used in plastic manufacturing include substances like polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene, along with other polymer-based materials. Plastics are widely utilized across numerous sectors, including packaging, home goods, textiles, films, healthcare, pipes, and in industries such as automotive and electrical.
This industry also incorporates a broad range of chemicals involved in the production of plastic-based products.
