Method for distinguishing plastic buttons from resin buttons

Resin buttons and plastic buttons in our daily life often be confused, silly is not clear, often used a smooth surface, shape and color of different, from the appearance looks like plastic buttons.In fact, this type of button is not as simple as we see, it is still a clear difference.First of all, we have to distinguish between resin and plastic buttons from this kind of button.
Plastic button
Resin and plastic differentiate: resin is to point to normally be subjected to heat hind soften or melting range, when softening, under the action of external force there is flow tendency, it is solid state under room temperature, semisiloid, sometimes also can be liquid organic polymer.Broadly speaking, any polymer that can be used as a raw material for processing plastic products is called a resin.And plastic is to point to with resin (or use monomer to be polymerized directly in processing process) it is main component, with the additive such as plasticizer, filler, lubricant, colouring agent is auxiliary component, the material that can flow in processing process shape.This shows, resin is one of the raw materials of plastic, plastic is the finished product of resin.Colloquially, the resin is not formed, after molding for plastic.In terms of the chemical properties of these two materials, plastics are divided into thermosetting and thermal plasticity, among which thermosetting plastics cannot be remold and used, while thermal plasticity plastics can be produced again and again.
Resin buttons
The difference between a resin button and a plastic button is the difference in the processing method, rather than the resin and the plastic itself.Resin buttons are formed by heating, cooling, curing, cutting and other procedures of liquid substances through special tubes and other cavities, or by coating liquid resin on the surface of the roller and other methods to make it solidified, stamping and forming, and then enter into subsequent processing;Plastic buttons are made of solid matter, mostly resin particles, molded by injection molding machines and molds.Because the processing method of two kinds of material is different, the finished product effect that produces thereby is different also.Resin button surface is relatively smooth, thick appearance, should also be more extensive.And plastic buttons can be changed according to the mold shape, the production of a variety of styles of buttons, and relative to resin buttons this is also easier to electroplate.
