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.
PC+ABS
Type: PC+ABS
Impact Resistance, Strength
PC+ABS is a blend-modified material that combines the advantages of both materials. It not only inherits the high impact resistance of PC but also the material strength of ABS, while improving its heat resistance. It is often used in electronic product casings, automotive interiors, consumer products, and more.

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.
PMMA (Acrylic)
Type: PMMA (Acrylic)
Impact Resistance, High Transparency, Weather Resistance
Acrylic (also known as polymethyl methacrylate, PMMA) boasts not only excellent optical performance but also outstanding UV resistance. With a light transmittance of up to 92%—comparable to glass—it has become a popular material in scenarios ranging from neon signs in shopping malls and display case panels in museums to precision optical lenses and stage light covers.
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.
