Processing Methods Applicable to Thermoplastic Elastomers

摘要: Polymeric materials come in a variety of forms. They may be solids different hardness, liquids, or dispersed water as latex suspension. Thermoplastics are generally processed by methods shaping them the molten state to desired shapes and sizes. Such often referred melt-processing methods. Most thermoplastics not subjected cross-linking, which means that they can remelted shaped again. Thus, production scrap used parts utilized again, partial replacement virgin materials. Common extrusion, injection molding, compression blow molding rotomolding. Thermoplastic elastomers materials, for plastics. The chapter describes processing fabrication products from thermoplastic Because large number types TPEs, these applicable only some them. Specific conditions individual TPEs other relevant details included chapters.
