Restore Faded Plastics
Fading and discoloration of plastic are common issues that can affect the appearance of plastic. The main culprits behind deterioration include exposure to UV, intense heat, and oxidation. Additionally, plastics’ susceptibility to acidic or alkaline conditions can lead to even more degradation. Read more below on how you can restore faded plastics.
Why Does Plastics Fade?
Here are a few reasons why plastics tend to fade after a while:
Exposure to UV
UV radiation from the sun can break down the chemical bonds in plastic materials, which results in discoloration and fading.
Exposure to Heat
High temperatures of heat causes the plastic to expand and contract. This process can lead to warping and fading.
Oxidation
As plastic reacts with air, oxidation occurs, causing the plastic to loose its colour and become dull. This process can be gradual, but it can highly impact the plastic’s appearance.
Acid and Alkali
Plastics that are exposed to acid and alkali can change their colour and structural properties. This can lead to the plastic surface becoming weaker and fading.
