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 ...

Nicolet Plastics LLC, a Wisconsin-based custom plastic injection molder providing manufacturing and engineering support for a range of industries, today announced the addition of a 360-ton two-shot ...

Most of the plastic products we use are made through injection molding, a process in which molten plastic is injected into a ...

The injection blow moulding process is a key conventional process that enables the production of hollow plastic parts from a pre-moulded semi-finished piece, commonly referred to as a preform. It ...

Waste conversion. A process that converts end-of-life plastics into carbon nanotubes is the subject of a patent application from Trimtabs Ltd. of Swansea, Wales. The patent application points out ...

A radical new process “vaporizes” plastic bags and bottles to help make recycled materials. American scientists say the innovative chemical procedure turns ubiquitous waste items into hydrocarbon ...

There are essentially three widely used technologies for manufacturing plastic products: Injection molding, extrusion, and blow molding. Injection molding is the most commonly used process for the ...

Polyethylene plastics -- single-use bags and general-purpose bottles -- are indestructable forever plastics. That also makes them hard to recycle. Chemists have found a way to break down the polymer - ...

A new way of chemically recycling single-use plastics might offer an incentive to keep them out of landfills. Ivan Radic via Flickr under CC BY 2.0 New research may offer a way to keep single-use ...
