Vacuum forming is a process that requires thermoplastic materials that can be heated and shaped using the vacuum forming process. The most commonly used plastics for vacuum forming include:

1. Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS): This is a versatile plastic that is known for its strength, durability, and impact resistance. It is commonly used to make automotive parts, toys, and electronic housings.

2. Polycarbonate (PC): This is a strong and transparent plastic that is often used to make items such as safety glasses, medical devices, and electronic components.

3. Polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG): This is a clear and tough plastic that is often used to make food packaging, retail displays, and medical equipment.

4. High-density polyethylene (HDPE): This is a strong and durable plastic that is often used to make industrial containers, trash cans, and pipes.

5. Polypropylene (PP): This is a lightweight and flexible plastic that is often used to make food packaging, medical equipment, and automotive parts.

The selection of plastic material depends on the specific application and requirements of the product being produced. The choice of plastic can affect factors such as strength, durability, flexibility, and transparency, among others.

Thermoforming is a process that requires thermoplastic materials that can be heated and shaped using the thermoforming process. The most commonly used plastics for thermoforming include:

1. Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS): This is a versatile plastic that is known for its strength, durability, and impact resistance. It is commonly used to make automotive parts, toys, and electronic housings.

2. Polycarbonate (PC): This is a strong and transparent plastic that is often used to make items such as safety glasses, medical devices, and electronic components.

3. Polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG): This is a clear and tough plastic that is often used to make food packaging, retail displays, and medical equipment.

4. High-density polyethylene (HDPE): This is a strong and durable plastic that is often used to make industrial containers, trash cans, and pipes.

5. Polypropylene (PP): This is a lightweight and flexible plastic that is often used to make food packaging, medical equipment, and automotive parts.

6. Polystyrene (PS): This is a versatile and inexpensive plastic that is often used to make disposable cups, plates, and packaging.

7. PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride): This is a plastic that is known for its resistance to chemicals and weathering. It is commonly used to make pipes, window frames, and medical tubing.

The selection of plastic material depends on the specific application and requirements of the product being produced. The choice of plastic can affect factors such as strength, durability, flexibility, and transparency, among others.
