Moreover, the presence of leading manufacturers of plastic and its by-products is also anticipated to propel the industry growth in the region.

 

Plastic Resins: Market Segmentation

Plastic resins are the core of all plastic products. These resins are created by heating hydrocarbons through the cracking process, wherein the released ethylene or propylene monomers undergo polymerisation to create polymer resins. These monomers, under heavy pressure, are mixed with a catalyst to form plastic pellets, also known as resins. These resins are then added to any plastic moulding or baking process, which then makes numerous plastics products.
