Which Plastics Are Common Plastics for Injection Molding
Injection molding is a cycle process, each cycle mainly includes: quantitative feeding - melting and plasticizing - pressure injection - mold filling and cooling - mold opening and parts removal. And then take out the plastic parts and then close the mold for the next cycle. 1. Thermoplastics are commonly used in rubber injection molding The resin molecular chains in thermoplastics are linear or branched. There is no chemical bond between the molecular chains. When heated, they soften and flow. The process of cooling and hardening is physical change. Therefore, injection molding is suitable for almost all thermoplastics. Nylon (nylon), polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), polystyrene (PS), Polyoxymethylene (POM), polycarbonate (PC), polyurethane (PU), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) are all thermoplastic injection materials, and they are common plastics for injection molding . 2.
