In the plastics industry, what changes will happen to the emergence of 5G technology?


The 5G network is a fifth-generation mobile communication network with three characteristics: extremely high rate (eMBB), large capacity (mMTC) and extremely low latency (URLLC).


Nowadays, 5G technology is developing in full swing and has become one of the hot words in recent years. The birth of 5G technology will also affect more and more industries, from wearable devices and robots to smart homes and smart cities. , interconnected factories, etc., all need access to the network. 5G enables intelligent everything to be interconnected, enabling mutual communication between large-scale machines. 5G commercials are getting closer and closer to our lives, as if they are within reach.


The replacement of plastics will accelerate


The transition from 4G communication to 5G communication is not only an upgrade of technology, but also a qualitative change of lifestyle. Due to the increase of 5G communication transmission rate and signal strength, from the base station to the application side, the performance of the material is also proposed. With higher quality requirements, the implementation of 5G communication will inevitably involve the upgrading of multi-field materials, including support in the plastic field.


The 5G base station is based on multi-antenna Massive MIMO (large-scale input and output) and new 5G advanced technologies such as LDPC/Polar. It cannot be upgraded on the basis of 4G base stations and must be rebuilt. For the RF industry, how to produce high-performance, high-utilization materials to meet the needs of 5G industry construction, the RF equipment, antenna materials and chip materials required for the construction of the 5G industry chain need to be used. It is the most important thing at the moment.


The metal material of the back cover of the mobile phone will be replaced by plastic

The MIMO technology adopted by 5G makes it necessary to deploy a large number of antennas in mobile phones. The metal materials selected by the current mobile phones will interfere with the signals. The mobile phone manufacturers are eager to cater to the general trend of 5G communication, and will gradually abandon the metal materials of the back cover of mobile phones and use them instead. Ceramics, glass or plastics, plastics are a concern for manufacturers as a material with good resistance to breakage, durability, light weight and low cost. Plastic enterprises should speed up the improvement of the quality of plastic materials on the basis of keeping plastics easy to process and low cost.


At present, the process of extending from IML to IMT has made the plastic more beautiful, and its surface can be close to the 3D optical texture of the simulated glass back cover, which has become the choice of many CMF designers.


Even if the manufacturer chooses ceramics and glass as the material to make the back cover of the mobile phone, due to its fragile characteristics, the mobile phone also needs a protective cover made of plastic, and most of them are injection molded, and the demand for plastic is greatly increased.


Future market puts higher demands on the performance of modified plastics


The realization of 5G communication is indispensable for the demand of modified plastics. The dielectric constant of modified plastics is very large for the signal transmission speed, signal delay and signal loss of 5G communication millimeter wave. Plastic enterprises must thoroughly research and improve the modified materials. The performance, reduce its dielectric constant, in order to improve the signal transmission speed, reduce delay and reduce losses of 5G communication terminals.


For plastics companies, how to seize the trend of 5G technology development and produce modified plastics that are more in line with 5G communication requirements will be the stepping stone to meet the 5G era.


3D plastic vibrator is expected to become the mainstream 5G solution


Half-wave oscillators are the most mature product applications in the 4G era and are currently widely adopted. In the 5G era, a new process, the 3D selective electroplating plastic vibrator solution, appeared on the market. The so-called plastic antenna vibrator uses a modified plastic material containing an organic metal composite, and the complex 3D three-dimensional shape is manufactured by injection molding, and the plastic surface is metallized by special techniques. While the plastic vibrator ensures that the antenna meets the performance of the 5G electrical appliance, the weight of the product is greatly reduced, the dangerous process steps are reduced, and the cost is also saved. The 3D plastic antenna vibrator has the advantages of miniaturization, light weight, and good performance, and is expected to become an important choice in 5G Massive MIMO scenarios.


Although the 5G network has not yet achieved full communication, the 5G hot words have been relished for a long time, and the expectations for 5G are gradually improving in the hot search. The plastics industry still needs to maintain an objective and calm attitude, in line with the development of 5G. The trend is to tighten the pulse of the 5G era, respond to the needs of market expansion, and continuously improve the performance of plastic products, thereby achieving the realization of enterprise value and providing more efficient and high-quality services for users of the 5G new era.
