14 Feb, 2025 5:09pm

The commonly used materials for plastic hangers include polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene copolymer (ABS), polycarbonate (PC), and polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
Polypropylene (PP): non-toxic and odorless, with low density, good insulation properties, and is not affected by humidity. Commonly used for plastic suit hangers, shirt hangers, suit hangers, etc.
Polystyrene (PS): easy to process and shape, good stability, and not easily deformed. Suitable for plastic foam suit hangers, jacket hangers, coat hangers, etc.
Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene copolymer (ABS): resistant to high temperatures, impact, and easy to process. Suitable for taller plastic suit hangers, pants racks, T-shirt hangers, etc.
Polycarbonate (PC): colorless, odorless, non-toxic, strong toughness, and good dimensional stability. Commonly used functional components for plastic clothing racks, such as plastic hooks, springs, buckles, etc.
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC): Good heat resistance, toughness, ductility, and high chemical stability. Suitable for plastic clothing accessories such as gaskets and pressure strips.
These materials each have their own characteristics and are suitable for different types of hangers to meet different needs. For example, polypropylene is suitable for hangers that require good insulation and are not affected by humidity; Polystyrene is suitable for hangers that require good stability; ABS is suitable for hangers that require high temperature resistance and impact resistance; Polycarbonate is suitable for functional components that require high toughness and dimensional stability; Polyvinyl chloride is suitable for accessories that require good chemical stability.
