The difference between acrylic packaging material and glass products

The first point: look at the product structure

The glass process is generally fired, so its plasticity is relatively strong, and it can make glass products of different shapes, some of which are even extremely irregular. But the acrylic packaging material is more standardized, because it is made of injection molding, and the mold has certain limitations, so its shape cannot be freely created at will. It is generally relatively standardized, and the inner liner is generally straight cylindrical. , And will be equipped with PP liner, generally glass bottles are bare, without plastic liners.

The second point: than product weight

The density of glass is 2.5 kilograms/cubic meter, while the density of acrylic is 1.2 kilograms/cubic meter. That is to say, two products of the same size are more than double the weight of glass, so they are generally of the same shape. The heavier ones are generally glass products.

The third point: look at the color of the product

The transparency of acrylic packaging materials is generally relatively high, so it is called "artificial crystal". Presumably, the transparency of glass is not as good as that of acrylic, and general glass products are a little yellowish or bluish. Both are also very It can be easily distinguished.

Fourth point: burn with fire

Acrylic is made of plastic, so it will burn with fire, while glass products generally do not.
