With the continuous development of science and technology, people's requirements for building materials are getting higher and higher. In construction, doors and windows are an indispensable part, and the choice of door and window materials directly affects the safety, energy saving, environmental protection and other aspects of the building. At present, the common door and window materials on the market include aluminum alloy, wood, steel, PVC and so on. Among them, UPVC Profile and plastic profiles are gradually being widely used because of their excellent performance and applicability. This article will make a comparative analysis of UPVC Profile and plastic profiles to help consumers choose the right door and window materials.

1. Basic concepts of UPVC Profile and plastic profiles

UPVC Profile is a plastic profile based on vinyl chloride, also known as non-PVC profile, because it does not add additives, it has the advantages of not easy to age, corrosion resistance, and excellent heat insulation performance. The plastic profile is a kind of door and window material made of synthetic resin as the main raw material through extrusion, injection molding and other processing techniques.

2. Comparison of UPVC Profile and plastic profiles

1. Performance comparison

UPVC Profile has excellent properties such as non-aging, anti-ultraviolet, corrosion resistance, heat insulation, etc., making it an ideal choice for door and window materials. In contrast, the weather resistance and chemical corrosion resistance of plastic profiles are poor, and they are prone to problems such as cracking and deformation, resulting in the loss of thermal insulation effect of doors and windows.

2. Strength comparison

UPVC Profile has higher strength than plastic profiles. It has good wind pressure resistance, can withstand relatively large wind force, and makes doors and windows more stable and reliable. However, plastic profiles are relatively fragile, have low strength, and are prone to deformation under the action of strong winds, thereby affecting the service life of doors and windows.

3. Appearance comparison

The surface of UPVC Profile is smooth, has good corrosion resistance, is not easy to change color and fade, and has a long service life. However, the surface of plastic profiles is relatively rough, which is easy to absorb dust and dirt. After a period of time, the surface will turn yellow, deform, and crack, which seriously affects the aesthetics of doors and windows.

4. Environmental protection comparison

UPVC Profile does not contain harmful substances such as lead and cadmium, and can also be 100% recycled. These characteristics make UPVC Profile far superior to traditional plastic profiles in terms of environmental protection.

In contrast, traditional plastic profiles use polyvinyl chloride resin, which will contain a certain amount of lead salts, lead stabilizers and other substances, which will cause harm to the environment and human health. In addition, a large amount of waste will be generated during the production, use and disposal of plastic profiles, which seriously pollutes the environment.

Therefore, UPVC Profile performs better than plastic profiles in terms of environmental protection. In addition, due to the long service life, high durability and recyclability of UPVC Profile, it is widely used in construction, home furnishing, transportation and other fields around the world.

5. Price comparison

In terms of price, UPVC Profile may be slightly more expensive than traditional plastic profiles. However, considering the excellent performance and long-term return on investment of UPVC Profile, its price is more cost-effective than traditional plastic profiles.

In addition, the price of UPVC Profile is also affected by many factors, such as profile size, thickness, surface treatment, color and so on. When selecting UPVC Profile, it is necessary to select the corresponding model and specification according to the actual needs in order to achieve the best cost performance.

To sum up, compared with traditional plastic profiles, UPVC Profile has better performance and wider application prospects. At the same time, UPVC Profile also performs better in terms of environmental protection. Therefore, UPVC Profile is a more ideal choice when choosing materials for construction, home furnishing, transportation and other fields.
