Cryogenic Deflashing Glass-Filled Nylon Introduction Glass-filled nylon is a type of nylon that has been reinforced with short glass fibers. The glass fibers provide reinforcement, making the nylon stronger, harder, and more rigid than regular run of the mill nylon. Glass-filled nylon is often used in applications where strength and durability are important, such as […]
Introduction to Kynar Kynar is a type of polyvinylidene fluoride, also known as PVDF resin, a high-performance thermoplastic material. PVDF is a fluoropolymer, which means that it is highly resistant to harsh chemicals, ultraviolet radiation, and weathering. This makes it an excellent resin choice for outdoor and industrial applications. Kynar is known for its exceptional […]
Rubber deflashing is the process of removing excess rubber known as flash from the surfaces and edges of molded parts. During rubber injection molding, flash is caused by parting line mismatches, improper venting, inadequate clamping pressure, excessively low viscosity, or poor sprue bushing support. Tooling and processing issues can also cause mold flash during injection […]
Deflashing Fortron Molded Parts Introduction Fortron is a trademarked name for a type of polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) resin. PPS is a high-performance thermoplastic that is known for its excellent mechanical, thermal, and chemical properties, including high strength, stiffness, heat resistance, and chemical resistance. Fortron is used in a variety of applications where high performance […]
Introduction Urethane is a synthetic material that belongs to the class of polymers known as polyurethanes. It is a versatile material that can be formulated to have a wide range of properties, including flexibility, toughness, hardness, and resilience. Urethane is known for its durability, resistance to abrasion and chemicals, and its ability to withstand […]
