The selection of plastic or polymer material in the industry requires considering many factors, and identifying the right material is crucial.

Material selection requires careful evaluation of the below factors and is usually done by engineering experts or materials scientists. The right material selection significantly impacts the quality, performance, and reliability of the product.

Here are some key factors to consider in material selection:

• Application Requirements: The conditions in which the material will be used, such as environment, temperature, pressure, chemical interactions, and mechanical loads, should be determined. The material must be suitable for these conditions.


• Physical Properties: The physical properties of the material, such as durability, hardness, elasticity, wear resistance, impact resistance, and surface characteristics, should be considered. The material should meet the requirements of the application.


• Chemical Compatibility: The material must be resistant to the chemical substances in the environment where it will be used. Chemical resistance is an important factor in material selection.


• Machinability: The machinability of the material ensures ease and cost-effectiveness in production processes. The material's machinability should be considered in machining processes such as turning, milling, and routing.


• Cost: The cost factor is also important in material selection. A cost-effective material should be chosen both initially and in the long term. Operational costs, production processes, and material supply costs should be taken into account.


• Sustainability: Sustainability is an important factor today. Recyclable, renewable, or environmentally friendly materials may be preferred.


• Regulatory Requirements: Regulatory requirements and standards must also be considered in material selection. Choosing a material that complies with industrial standards and regulations is essential.


• Performance Expectations: The long-term performance and durability of the material should also be considered. The material should align with the expected performance of the application.
