Lightweight and tough PP/talc composite foam with bimodal nanoporous structure achieved by microcellular injection molding

Carbonized Starch Microcellular Foam-cellulose Fiber Composite Structures

The production of microporous carbon foams from renewable starch microcellular foam-fiber (SMCF-Fiber) composites is described. Carbon foams are used in applications such as thermal insulation, battery electrodes, filters, fuel cells, and medical devices. SMCF-Fiber composites were created from an aquagel. The water in the aquagel was exchanged with ethanol and then dried and carbonized. Higher...

Primary Experimental Study on Microcellular Injection Molding Using Newly-developed Equipment

Microcellular injection molding using supercritical fluid (SCF) as blowing agent attracts more and more interests. There are still many difficulties in microcellular injection molding, such as decreasing equipment cost, controlling cellular morphology, and increasing feasibility. In this work, primary microcellular injection molding experiments were carried out on newly-developed equipment, whi...

Optimization of the injection molding process of Derlin 500 composite using ANOVA and grey relational analysis

Warpage and shrinkage control are important factors in proving the quality of thin-wall parts in injection modeling process. In the present paper, grey relational analysis was used in order to optimize these two parameters in manufacturing plastic bush of articulated garden tractor. The material used in the plastic bush is Derlin 500. The input parameters in the process were selected according ...

Precision Injection Molding PRECISION PROCESS CONTROL OF INJECTION MOLDING

1 INTRODUCTION The technical requirements of precision injection molded components demand a heightened level of process performance, and with corresponding process monitoring and control technologies. To obtain the desired critical to quality attributes (CTQs) of the molded products, the injection molding process must be consciously designed such that the key process variables (KPVs) are observ...
