Injection Molding Materials
Choosing the right injection molding material can make or break your project. Our comprehensive guide helps you quickly compare options based on strength, flexibility, and heat resistance, so you can confidently select the ideal material for prototypes, production parts, or custom designs—ensuring high-quality results every time.
PC+GF
Type: PC+GF
Impact Resistance, Strength, Aging Resistance
PC+GF (polycarbonate + glass fiber reinforced composite material) is a reinforced engineering plastic made by adding glass fiber (abbreviated as GF) to a polycarbonate (PC) matrix. The addition of glass fiber can significantly improve the mechanical properties and stability of pure PC while retaining some of PC’s excellent inherent properties, making it suitable for scenarios with high requirements for strength, rigidity, and dimensional accuracy. It features high strength, high rigidity, and heat resistance, and is ideal for automotive parts, electrical enclosures, and structural components.
TPU
Type: TPU
Impact Resistance, Wear Resistant, Chemical Resistant, Aging Resistance
TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane), commonly known as urethane rubber, is a thermoplastic elastomer. It features excellent elasticity, abrasion resistance, and chemical corrosion resistance, and is widely used in applications such as mobile phone cases (soft shells), sports shoe soles, and medical catheters.

PTFE
Type: PTFE
Temperature Resistance, Corrosion Resistance, low friction Coefficient, Aging Resistance
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), commonly known as Teflon, is a high-performance fluoropolymer. It is frequently used in mechanical components requiring reduced friction and wear—such as bearings, gears, and piston rings—due to its non-stick properties, low friction characteristics, and self-lubricating capabilities. PTFE also exhibits excellent electrical insulation properties, making it highly suitable for applications like high-frequency cables, high-voltage insulators, and electronic components.
Additionally, PTFE maintains stable performance during long-term use across an extreme temperature range from -200°C (ultra-low temperature) to 260°C (high temperature), enabling its use in harsh environments such as aerospace systems, deep-sea equipment, and high-temperature industrial apparatus.
HDPE
Type: HDPE
Corrosion Resistance, Strength, Electrical Insulation
High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) is a lightweight, chemically resistant, and high-strength material. It is flexible and tough, commonly used in applications such as food packaging (e.g., food containers), agricultural films, daily necessities (e.g., storage boxes), and water tanks.
PC
Type: PC
Impact Resistance, Processability
PC (polycarbonate, commonly known as bulletproof glue) is inherently pale yellow or colorless and transparent, featuring hardness, toughness and luster. It boasts prominent advantages: with a light transmittance of 90%, it not only has good mechanical strength but also excellent impact resistance, along with outstanding heat resistance and weatherability.
PEEK
Type: PEEK
Impact Resistance, Chemical Resistant, Food Grade, High Temp, Sterilizable
PEEK (Polyetheretherketone) is a top-performing thermoplastic engineering plastic, featuring excellent high-temperature resistance, robust mechanical properties, versatile corrosion resistance, top-tier biocompatibility, exceptional dimensional stability, and outstanding electrical insulation and radiation resistance. It is widely used in high-end fields such as aerospace, high-end medical care, and electronic semiconductors.
TPU
Type: TPU
Impact Resistance, Wear Resistance, Chemical Resistant, Aging Resistance
TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane), commonly known as urethane rubber, is a thermoplastic elastomer. It features excellent elasticity, abrasion resistance, and chemical corrosion resistance, and is widely used in applications such as mobile phone cases (soft shells), sports shoe soles, and medical catheters.
