• No stress nylon
  , stabilizers, or lubricants, and the process itself. RIM is most commonly associated with polyurethane (PUR) chemistries but it is also widely applied in more demanding applications with the use of various nylon-based materials. Nylon, along with only a few thermoplastic resins (such as PUR) has the notable...
• Picking A Winning Nylon For The Roller Derby
  location. The part will absorb moisture until it reaches equilibrium, and the resulting swelling will cause dimensions to go out-of tolerance and possibly trigger premature part failure. The common ways of forming nylon, including injection molding, extrusion, and casting, also influence material...

• Casing the extrusion joint
  joining methods, and extrusions can ease the assembly process. Galvanized or stainless-steel bolts make sense should it be necessary to dismantle a product. Nuts can be separate or made part of the extrusion itself. Blind nuts or inserts work when it is impractical to thread thin-walled extrusions or when...
• Continuous-fiber Extrusions Make Strong Thermoplastics
  , and extrusion delivers molten thermoplastic to the reinforcing fibers. Thermoplastics include polypropylene, polyurethane, PET, nylon 6, and PEEK, with other materials to be available in the near future. Reinforcing fibers are primarily glass or carbon fiber, but the process is suitable for aramids...
• Innovative High Strength Glass Microspheres for Extruded and Injection Molded Parts (.pdf)
  High strength, low density glass microspheres (3MTM Glass Bubbles) have been developed and commercialized for use in extrusion and injection molding processes. The new and innovative 3MTM Performance Additives iM30K are low in density, and can survive extremely high compressive forces, providing...
• Plastic industry honors innovative parts
  . ABS serves as the part core to help reduce costs. Injection molding, extrusion blow molding, coinjection molding, and rotationalmolding processes are employed in making the various parts. Gas-counter pressure-injection molding produces shelves, rear wall, paper tray, and paper-tray extension used...
• Fiber Abrasive Finishing Systems for End-Deburring Extruded Aluminum Profiles
  , semi-automated, or fully automated end deburring of aluminum extrusion ends. It is a practical and efficient process which offers increased productivity, safety, and consistently high quality levels. This process has been proven with over 100 installations throughout the United States, Canada...
• 'Plug-and-Play' Weight Reduction Solution by Hollow Glass Microspheres
  of the 1970s (Figure 3). parts without requiring significant material and process changes. 3M glass bubbles can be easily compounded with various polymers. using conventional melt processing operations such as extrusion. 4. The resulting compounds are strong enough that the glass bubbles. will not break, even...
• Medical Device Link .
  Critical Factors in Extruding Catheter Tubing from Polyamide Medical tubing extrusion requires rigorous attention to a number of material and process characteristics. Understanding the importance of these parameters is key to ensuring product quality. Sedigheh Farzaneh, Erik Andersen, and Abbas...
