The largest demand for thermoplastics in this market sector is for pipes and conduits; PVC, HDPE, LDPJZ, and polypropylene are used, for example, in potable water pipe and gas pipe. Polystyrene is also used for various building and construction needs, such as light fwures and ornamental profiles. Thermoset resins, on the other hand, are used for the bonding and laminating of plywood, wood products, and protective coatings. For the volumes of each plastic used in this market (by percentage of the total market), see Figure 2-2.
