Epoxy is a class of thermosetting resin derived by the polymerization of epoxides. It is capable of forming tightly linked cross-polymer structures, and can be either made into an adhesive or cured to form high-strength polymers. Its areas of application range from Construction to Aerospace. Manufacturing Process Epoxy resins can[…]
Thermoplastics are polymers that become mouldable upon application of heat and solidify upon cooling, without undergoing any disintegration of molecular structure or mechanical properties. Acrylic, ABS, nylon, PLA, polyether sulphone, polyether ether ketone, polyetherimide, polyethylene, polyphenylene oxide, polyphenylene sulphide, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride, and Teflon are some of the most[…]
Polypropylene is always cited as the polymer of future. There is a growing demand for recycled polypropylene in various industries, according to the latest survey conducted by the Association of Plastic Recyclers. Recycled Polypropylene (PP) Polypropylenes are plastics polymers that are members of the ‘polyolefin’ family. It is a highly[…]
Right from NASA to the streets, everywhere we see Photovoltaics for different purposes and noticeably for electrical power generation for converting solar radiation into direct electricity using semiconductors. So, photovoltaic power generation equips solar panels made of solar cells containing a photovoltaic material. These materials presently used for photovoltaics includes[…]
