Is nylon rope plastic? The difference between the two!

Many people may not know what material the nylon rope we bought is made of, because I heard that nylon is plastic, so is this rope also made of plastic? In fact, they are essentially different. The following is the difference between the two.

Nylon ropes are made of plastic or not. Actually, the materials are different, just like red copper and red copper.Nylon is a tough angular translucent or milky white crystalline resin. As an engineering plastic, the molecular weight of nylon is generally 15,000 to 30,000. Nylon has high mechanical strength, high softening point, heat resistance, low friction coefficient, wear resistance, and self-lubricating. It has good electrical insulation, self-extinguishing, non-toxic, odorless, good weather resistance, and poor dyeing properties. The disadvantage is that the water absorption is large, which affects the dimensional stability and electrical properties. Fiber reinforcement can reduce the water absorption of the resin, so that it can work under high temperature and high humidity. Nylon has a very good affinity with glass fiber. The way of difference: very simple way: plastic rope should be hard, nylon rope should be soft. Test the compressive strength and it is clear that the difference depends on ductile repair and tensile elongation. The wear resistance of high pressure polyethylene rope is correspondingly better than that of nylon rope. In terms of moisture-proof properties alone, nylon ropes are naturally better, and must be considered comprehensively. Nylon rope is not sea-resistant, but high-pressure polyethylene rope can be sea-resistant as a mariculture rope. The main reason is that the compressive strength is different. Nylon rope is better than polypropylene rope, and can be used in areas with higher compressive strength requirements.

Nylon belongs to plastic, and plastic includes nylon. High-pressure polyethylene and nylon are two different plastics. High-pressure polyethylene is good, but nylon will rot for a long time. High pressure polyethylene is resistant to low temperature and corrosion. Melting plastic and etching plastic are two different things. Special plastics can be melted in special organic solvents. Most plastics are relatively resistant to corrosion, and polyester plastics are not resistant to corrosion and corrosion, and will produce hydrolysis reactions. Plastic is a polymer material chemical substance (macromolecules) that is aggregated according to polyaddition or polyaddition reaction. It consists of additives such as tackifiers, thickeners, lubricating fluids, and dyes. Nylon has excellent overall performance, including physical properties, temperature resistance, abrasion resistance, chemical resistance and self-wetting, and low friction resistance, a certain flame retardant grade, easy to produce and process, suitable for glass fiber and Other fillers are added to improve the modified material, improve the properties and expand the scope of application.
