First, let’s establish that every process must follow normal scientific molding protocol. With pack and hold at zero, the shot should be 95 to 98% full. Temperatures and pressures should be kept as ...

Extrusion and injection molding are the most important conversion techniques used by the thermoplastics processing industry. Certain factors need to be considered before a thermoplastics material is ...

To improve the application of carbon black (CB)-filled polymer composites, we investigated the relationship between the processing parameters, microstructure and electrical properties of injection ...

The plastics industry continues to seek solutions to help it meet circular economy demands. As pressure builds for the industry to increase the amount of recycled plastics used in manufacturing, ...

An injection molding plant is a type of material-processing plant. Injection molding plants may serve as secondary processors that take raw plastic and form it to create parts for other end ...

Purging a plastic injection molding machine with resin or regrind for color changes or carbon removal often leads to costly waste and lost production time. Along with the right purging compound, there ...

Researchers succeed in producing rapid, cost-effective and environmentally friendly material. Glass is ubiquitous, from high-tech products in the fields of optics, telecommunications, chemistry and ...
