Which Plastic Absorbs Little Moisture And Is Unaffected By Aging In Water?

-

 

Plastics are widely used methods in industry and daily life. Properties such as water resistance, moisture absorption rate and durability of indications determine the suitability of plastic materials in various applications. Plastic materials are critically important in areas such as marine, automotive and pipelines due to their resistance to aging when in contact with water and their low moisture absorption properties. This article focuses on plastic types that absorb little moisture and are not affected by aging in water.



The moisture properties and water resistance of plastics depend on the polymer types and production types. Especially water-resistant and low-moisture plastics are preferred in engineering applications. One of the prominent plastics is Polyethylene (PE)

Plastics such as Polyethylene (PE), Polypropylene (PP) and Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) are preferred in many industries due to their low moisture absorption properties and resistance to aging in water. The durable structures of these plastics make them long-lasting and reliable materials. The use of such plastics, especially in applications that are in constant contact with water and moisture, offers significant advantages in terms of long-term performance and cost efficiency.

Discovery of Oil and Its Importance in Human History

-
Resim
Oil is considered one of the most important energy sources of the modern world. However, no one could have predicted that its emergence on the stage of history would play such a critical role in meeting today's energy needs. The discovery and first use of oil heralded major transformations in human history and became one of the cornerstones of the industrial revolution. First Discoveries and Natural Oil Seeps The realization of oil by humanity actually dates back to ancient times. According to historical records, ancient civilizations such as Mesopotamia, Ancient Egypt and China used oil that naturally seeped to the surface of the earth for medical and practical purposes. Especially in Mesopotamia, petroleum derivatives known as bitumen (tar) were used in construction materials for waterproofing, shipbuilding and even religious rituals. It is known that natural gas and oil were extracted in China in the 4th century BC using simple drilling methods. However, these early uses were qu...

Surface Activity: Basic Concepts and Application Areas

-
Resim
Surface activity is an important concept in various fields of chemistry, biology, environmental science and industry. Surface active substances or surfactants play a special role on surfaces where two different phases – such as water and oil – come together. These substances facilitate the mixing of phases or interaction between them by reducing surface tension. This feature allows it to be used in many areas from cleaning to industrial processes. In this article, we will examine what surface activity is, how it works and in which areas it is used. Definition and Working Principle of Surface Active Substances Surface activity is the totality of the properties exhibited by molecules on a surface depending on their interactions on that surface. In this context, surface active substances (surfactants) are chemicals that reduce surface tension by interacting on the surface of liquids or between two different phases (such as liquid-gas or liquid-liquid). Surface active substances have two i...

Why Plastics Harm Nature

-
Resim
 There are many reasons why plastics harm nature. Here are some of them: Difficulty of Biodegradation: Plastics do not naturally dissolve in nature and take a very long time to biodegrade. Some types of plastic can remain in nature for hundreds or even thousands of years. Danger to Marine and Land Animals: Plastic wastes pose a great threat to marine and land animals. Sea creatures can swallow plastic pieces and drown, block their internal organs or enter the food chain, creating toxic effects for other living things, including humans. Pollution of Water Resources: Plastic wastes cause pollution of water resources such as rivers, lakes and oceans. This leads to damage to living creatures and natural habitats living in aquatic ecosystems. Soil Pollution: The mixing of plastic wastes into the soil can cause a decrease in soil quality and damage to vegetation. In addition, chemicals contained in plastics can leak into the soil and cause contamination of agricultural products or ground...
