Nitrofreeze® cryogenic deflashing for plastic insert molding gently removes flash from parts and products like electrical connectors and surgical tools. During insert molding, a plastic or rubber material is molded over a substrate that has been inserted into the mold. In the case of an electrical connector, this substrate is an electrically conductive metal. The […]
Glass-Filled Nylon Deflashing Introduction Glass-filled nylon, also known as glass-reinforced nylon or nylon composite, is a type of engineering thermoplastic that is reinforced with glass fibers. It is created by incorporating short or long glass fibers into a nylon polymer matrix during the manufacturing process. The addition of glass fibers enhances the mechanical properties of […]
Introduction to Cryogenic Deflashing Cryogenic deflashing is a process used to remove excess material or flash from molded components. Flash refers to thin protrusions or excess material that are often formed during the manufacturing process due to mold imperfections or parting lines. Cryogenic deflashing is particularly useful for removing flash from plastic and rubber components. […]
Deflashing PPS Molded Parts Introduction PPS, also known as Polyphenylene Sulfide, is a high-performance thermoplastic polymer known for its excellent thermal and chemical resistance properties. It is a type of engineering plastic that belongs to the family of sulfide polymers. PPS plastic has several notable characteristics that make it suitable for various applications: Thermal Resistance: […]
Deflashing Nylatron Introduction to Nylatron Nylatron is a brand name for a family of engineering thermoplastic materials that are based on nylon (specifically, nylon 6 or nylon 6/6). It is a type of nylon with enhanced mechanical properties, making it suitable for demanding applications that require high strength, wear resistance, and dimensional stability. […]
