Designing of a product is an integral aspect in the Plastics industry. There are a variety of ways through which plastics can be designed and this is usually decided before the commencement of the manufacturing process. One of the popular methods is the injection molding process Injection molding process has[…]
A great way to determine if your part will function as designed is by creating a prototype. Prototypes have the amazing ability to transform your work into something tangible and make your idea come to life. Plastic prototyping has opened up a whole new world of possibilities. Unlike previous methods[…]
New innovation is continually energizing yet not generally reasonable. How frequently has an apparently as good as ever contraption hit the market that your wallet basically hasn’t had the capacity to stomach? Since the early improvement of SKETCHPAD in 1963, an ancestor of CAD and CAM programming, the issue has[…]
Technology changes every day. Even in the world of plastics there is continual research and development to arrive at newer and fresher alternatives. In the light of the same, microcellular foam is a breakthrough technology in the plastics industry. The concept or the technology of microcellular thermoplastic foam appears to[…]
Though not a recent phenomenon, wood-plastic composites is posing to be a much sought after and compelling realm within the plastics industry. Also, there is a continually maturing interest in the new design potentialities that this amalgamation of components used, has to offer. It is, at its heart, a composite[…]
Polycarbonate is a versatile tough plastic that is used for a variety of applications ranging from bulletproof windows to compact disks. It is known for its unbeatable strength at light weight and the unbreakable quality made industries use it in wide purposes. Polycarbonate is just one-third the weight of acrylic[…]
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[…]
Flame retardants are a class of chemicals designed to provide passive fire protection to polymers under specific fire risk scenarios. The fire protection provided by the flame retardant can vary from ignition resistance to slowing of flame spread/heat release growth to smoke and toxic gas reduction. Flame retardants can be[…]
