Injection Molding and Mechanical Properties of Bio-Based Polymer Nanocomposites
2018
The use of biodegradable/bio-based polymers is of great importance in addressing several issues related to environmental protection, public health, and new, stricter legislation. Yet some applications require improved properties (such as barrier or mechanical properties), suggesting the use of nanosized fillers in order to obtain bio-based polymer nanocomposites. In this work, bionanocomposites based on two different biodegradable polymers (coming from the Bioflex and MaterBi families) and two different nanosized fillers (organo-modified clay and hydrophobic-coated precipitated calcium carbonate) were prepared and compared with traditional nanocomposites with high-density polyethylene (HDPE…
El futuro de los plásticos o los plásticos del futuro
2020
espanolEn los ultimos tiempos politicos, activistas ambientales, periodistas y otros lideres de opinion han dirigido sus armas contra los plasticos. Este mal concepto nace como resultado de los cambios en el entorno como consecuencia de la utilizacion de nuevas fuentes de energia, tanto nuclear como la de combustibles fosiles y el desarrollo de la industria petroquimica en especial la de los plasticos que se da a partir del descubrimiento del petroleo. Sin embargo y a pesar de las consideraciones ambientales el plastico ha construido nuestro mundo hasta el punto en que hoy es dificil imaginar nuestra vida sin el. Muchos disenadores han sostenido desde mediados del siglo XX, que los articulo…
A study via simulation of solidification during injection molding
2011
The final properties of an injection-molded part are strictly dependent on the solidification dynamics occurring during the processing. The experimental derivation of information about polymer solidification throughout the injection molding cycle is still an open challenge. To overcome the practical issues, the process simulation is proposed as a mean to derive useful data, and especially for identifying the most influencing parameters. The no-flow temperature (NFT) is a parameter used in most of injection molding simulation packages as a mean to determine whether the polymer flows or it is solid. With this simple parameter it is possible to take into account the rheological solidification …
