Gas-assisted injection molding process is much complicated,the process parameters have multiplied. In this paper, a product with typical character of gas-assisted injection molded part is employed as the object of study. With the mould of gas-assisted injection molding and MPI/3D GAS in Moldflow software,the influence rule of the 6 important process parameters on gas penetration length in gas-a...

background: the shielding methods in radiotherapy due to delivering an accurate radiation dose to cancer tissues and avoiding unnecessary dose to normal tissues are very important. these methods include lead standard blocks, individual molding and multi leaf collimator (mlc). the mlc method is not still common in iran radiotherapy centers. individual molding is better than the lead block shield...

This Communication describes the use of patterned elastomeric stamps to mold, release, and stack hydrogels into three-dimensional microstructures. Molding of gels against stamps derivatized by a hexa(ethylene glycol)-terminated self-assembled monolayer or by an adsorbed monolayer of bovine serum albumin allowed the application of several soft lithographic techniques (replica molding, microtrans...

acrylic resin denture bases undergo dimensional changes during polymerization. injection molding techniques are reported to reduce these changes and thereby improve physical properties of denture bases. the aim of this study was to compare dimensional changes of specimens processed by conventional and injection-molding techniques.sr-ivocap triplex hot resin was used for conventional pressure-pa...

The present study aims to determine the risk of early secondary nasal revisions in patients with complete unilateral and bilateral cleft lip and palate (U/BCLP) treated with and without nasoalveolar molding (NAM) and examine the associated costs of care. A retrospective cohort study from 1990 to 1999 was performed comparing the risk of early secondary nasal revision surgery in patients with a C...

injection molding is one of the most important and common plastic formation methods. combination of modeling tools and optimization algorithms can be used in order to determine optimum process conditions for the injection molding of a special part. because of the complication of the injection molding process and multiplicity of parameters and their interactive effects on one another, analytical...

PURPOSE The aim of this in vivo study was to compare the single-step border molding technique using injectable heavy viscosity addition silicone with sectional border molding technique using low fusing impression compound by evaluating the retention of heat cure trial denture bases. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ten completely edentulous patients in need of prostheses were included in this study. Two...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate and summarize the evidence comparing nonsurgical therapies in the treatment of infants with deformational plagiocephaly. DATA SOURCES Scientific articles and abstracts published in English between January 1978 and August 2007 were searched from 5 online literature databases, along with a manual search of conference proceedings. STUDY SELECTION Studies were selected and...

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...

During the recent years powder processing technologies have gained much attention due to the less energy consumption and recyclable powders. Manufacturing of complicated parts by the conventional powder metallurgy (PM) method is hard due to the uniaxial pressure, which leads to the low design flexibility. In order to prevail these constraints, powder injection molding (PIM) process, which inclu...
