ABS resin: It can achieve texture of piano lacquer and mirror lacquer without painting.
As long as you choose right plastic material and processing method, it can present a mirror-like texture without painting or grinding.

PS Polystyrene: Transparent and easy to color like PVC.
It is a common material for CD cases or plastic models. Disadvantage of PS is that it has poor heat resistance and is easy to break when dropped on the ground.

POM polyoxymethylene resin: It has high resistance to repeated compression or stretching, and has good wear resistance and toughness.
It has characteristics of high hardness, high rigidity, and high wear resistance.
It is mainly used for products that act as skeletons, such as gears, bearings, automotive parts, machine tools, and instrument internals.

PA Polyamide (Nylon): Good mechanical properties such as tensile, compression, bending and mechanical impact.
PA has excellent performance. Its performance can be further improved after being modified by filling, strengthening, toughening, flame retardant, etc.

PE Polyethylene: Raw material is cheap and easy to shape during production
Although it is not fire-resistant or heat-resistant, it has high cold resistance and will not become brittle even at -20℃.

PP Polypropylene: Lighter than PE and more heat-resistant, with a glossy surface and easy to color:
Due to its excellent bending resistance, it is often used in manufacture of one-piece containers.

PVC Polyvinyl Chloride: Different additives can be added to create different soft and hard textures.
Low cost and high transparency. Also suitable for coloring and printing.

PC polycarbonate: preferred material for making transparent and high-strength products.
Colorless and transparent, heat-resistant, impact-resistant, and has good mechanical properties within normal use temperatures.
Often used in plastic chairs.
