Among many products, Plastic shell is widely used because of its advantages such as lightness, low cost and easy molding. However, its wear resistance and whether it is easy to get scratches on the surface after long-term use are issues that we need to focus on when choosing and using it.
The wear resistance of Plastic shell depends on many factors. The first is the type of plastic. Different plastic materials have different hardness and toughness. For example, polycarbonate (PC) usually has good wear resistance, while polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) are relatively weak.
Secondly, the surface treatment process of the shell will also affect the wear resistance. Plastic shell that has been hardened or added with a wear-resistant coating can improve its ability to resist scratches to a certain extent.
During long-term use, whether the surface of Plastic shell is easy to get scratches is closely related to the use environment. If it is often in contact with sharp objects or rubbed on a rough surface, the possibility of scratches will be greatly increased. For example, a mobile phone is easily scratched when placed in a pocket with keys, coins and other items.
In addition, the frequency and intensity of use will also affect the generation of scratches. Frequent and vigorous use of a product will cause the Plastic shell to bear more friction and impact, making it more prone to scratches.
In order to evaluate the wear resistance of the Plastic shell, we can conduct some simple tests. For example, gently rub the surface of the shell with sandpaper for a certain number of times and observe the changes on the surface; or simulate the actual use scenario and conduct repeated friction and collision experiments.
Some high-quality Plastic shells are designed with full consideration of the need for wear resistance. For example, the shell of a laptop is usually made of wear-resistant plastic material and is specially treated to ensure that it is not easy to have obvious scratches in daily use and maintain the beauty and integrity of the appearance.
However, even for Plastic shells with good wear resistance, it is difficult to completely avoid scratches. During use, we can take some protective measures, such as using a protective cover and avoiding placing it together with sharp objects, to extend the service life of the Plastic shell and reduce the appearance of scratches.
In short, the wear resistance of the Plastic shell is a complex issue and is affected by many factors. When choosing a product, we need to comprehensively consider the material, process, and our own usage needs and habits to ensure that the selected Plastic shell can maintain a good appearance and performance in long-term use.
