Third,Stabilizers act to prevent the deterioration and decomposition of plastics due to heat, oxygen and light during processing and use in order to prolong the life of plastics. Stabilizers include antioxidants, ultraviolet absorbers and heat stabilizers. Stabilizer in the plastic molding process should not decompose, water resistance, oil resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, easy to mix with resin.

Forth, The effect of colorants is to give certain colour to plastics. Colorants are also divided into inorganic pigments and organic pigments. Inorganic pigments are stable, but opaque, poor dyeing; transparent plastics need to be matched with organic dyes to make them colorful.
