Polyethylene or polythene (abbreviated PE; IUPAC name polyethene or poly (methylene)) is the most commonly produced plastic. [ 7] It is a polymer, primarily used for packaging ( plastic bags, plastic films, geomembranes and containers including bottles, etc.).
There were some accessories produced for the AKS-74U including a plastic thigh holster and (shorter than standard) 20-round AK-74 type magazines. The rifle utilizes a proprietary 25 mm wide sling that differs from the standard 35 mm AK sling also in construction.
Polyethylene terephthalate (or poly (ethylene terephthalate), PET, PETE, or the obsolete PETP or PET-P ), is the most common thermoplastic polymer resin of the polyester family and is used in fibres for clothing, containers for liquids and foods, and thermoforming for manufacturing, and in combination with glass fibre for engineering resins.

A thermoplastic, or thermosoftening plastic, is any plastic polymer material that becomes pliable or moldable at a certain elevated temperature and solidifies upon cooling. [ 1][ 2] Most thermoplastics have a high molecular weight. The polymer chains associate by intermolecular forces, which weaken rapidly with increased temperature, yielding a ...
These curtains, made of a polyvinyl chloride plastic film, shield people outside the welding area from the UV light of the electric arc, but cannot replace the filter glass used in helmets. [64] Depending on the type of material, welding varieties, and other factors, welding can produce over 100 dB(A) of noise. [ 65 ]
Polyolefin. A polyolefin is a type of polymer with the general formula (CH 2 CHR) n where R is an alkyl group. They are usually derived from a small set of simple olefins ( alkenes ). Dominant in a commercial sense are polyethylene and polypropylene. More specialized polyolefins include polyisobutylene and polymethylpentene.
Plastic welding is welding for semi-finished plastic materials, and is described in ISO 472 [1] as a process of uniting softened surfaces of materials, generally with the aid of heat (except for solvent welding). Welding of thermoplastics is accomplished in three sequential stages, namely surface preparation, application of heat and pressure ...
Short video on injection molding (9 min 37 s) Plastics extrusion is a high-volume manufacturing process in which raw plastic is melted and formed into a continuous profile. Extrusion produces items such as pipe/tubing, weatherstripping, fencing, deck railings, window frames, plastic films and sheeting, thermoplastic coatings, and wire insulation.
