Plasticizers are like the "softening magic wands" for plastics. They can insert themselves between polymer molecular chains, weakening the forces between molecules.

Stabilizers serve to protect plastics. Heat stabilizers can inhibit the decomposition of plastics during high - temperature processing. Substances like lead salts and organotin compounds can keep plastics stable during processing.

Flame retardants endow plastics with flame - resistance. In the fields of electronics, electrical appliances, and construction, brominated and phosphorus.
Lubricants also have their unique functions. Internal lubricants can reduce the friction between molecular chains and improve the fluidity of the melt. External lubricants form a separation film between the plastic and the processing equipment, preventing the plastic from adhering to the equipment and facilitating the demolding of plastic products.

The unique features of these different plastic processing additives jointly shape the diverse properties of plastic products. They drive the continuous development of the plastics industry, meeting the ever - growing demands of people's lives and production.
