• Polystyrene
  insulation and energy absorption. Copolymers of polystyrene formulated into EPS-type foamable resins provide improved beat tolerance, solvent resistant, or cushioning. Expandable PS foams are produced in a two-stage process. The resin particles are first expanded to the density required...

• Better Injection Molding Through Bubbles
  with material choice. Because MuCell cuts melt viscosity and reduces warpage, designers may be able to substitute a lower-grade material for a higher-grade one. Designers of electrical connectors have been able to replace solid-molded syndiotactic polystyrene (SPS) or liquid crystalline polymer (LCP...
• Polyolefins
  strength of each polyolefm may be quite different. Stress-crack resistance and useful temperature range also vary with crystalline structure. In addition to the solid polyolefin resins, these materials are also available as beads from which very low density (1.25 to 5.0 lb/ ft3) foam shapes and blocks...
• Types of Plastics
  , and it also affects its processing characteristics. The major effects of increasing chain length are increased toughness, creep resistance, stress-crack resistance, melt temperature, melt viscosity, and processing difficulty. However, not all polymer molecules can be manufactured to an exact, specified...
• Mastering color
  in personal care items such as Suave hair-care products. To get the desired effect, a multipart masterbatch color system was developed for the blow-molded bottles. The trilayered bottles made from high-density polyethylene feature bright primary colors for children and soft pearlescence for adults...
• Low Smoke Polyphenylene Ether Blends (.pdf)
  char formation and low smoke toxicity when burned. Addition of a proprietary smoke suppressant 'LS-1' to a flame-retarded PPE blend results in low smoke density without significantly affecting smoke toxicity and flame-retardance, possibly owing to the formation of intumescent char. In addition...
• Welding with light
  during the procedure. Melt residue deposited on hot-plate tooling requires frequent cleaning. And the relatively high temperatures required for noncontact, radiant heating and some laser techniques, can degrade materials at the weld joints or overheat sensitive electronics. But a new experimental...
