How to choose a plastic?

Energetic service start from providing customers comprehensive technology consultation. Energetic technical experts will consider & evaluate all the requirements of customer, so as to choose the best materials and production processes. We give the suggestion the most appropriate sheets or rods depending on the application to ensure precise dimensional accuracy.
How to choose a plastic?
  1. Select the material according to its usage, mainly refers to the applications’ classification, also need consider its working environment, type of stresses, mode of actions, and use of objects and so on.
  2. Select the material according to the scope of plastic’s application:
    1 ) Plastic for making containers, casing, cover, catheter
    2 ) Low- friction plastic
    3 ) Using as mechanical parts, such as wheel, cam, rack, coupling section, roller etc.
4 ) Using as a chemical resistant plastics and heat resistant plastic .
5 ) Using as an electrical configuration plastic parts .
6 ) Using as the transparent parts, transparent plate and models, transparent or colored translucent plastic .
  1. Considering each kind of plastic’s each property, compare the performance of each kind of plastic:
    1 ) Density
    2 ) Color
    3 ) Hardness
    4 ) Mechanical properties
Material Selection Points:
To develop a satisfied finished product, the most important requirement is choose the material reasonably, economically, based on lowest cost, it include following points.
  1. Material application analysis: it requires do a research for its application, including the actual requirements of characteristics and the limits of product’s work conditions.
  2. Based on material’s application, make the properties requirements correspond to material’s properties. As the actual problems are a lot and not simple, it need not only to do some prerequisite and simulation function testing, but also use experience and observe other facts to material’s effects also very helpful for actual application.
  3. Candidate materials’ selection:
Once known the required properties, next step is searching the correspondence material.
Choosing candidate materials need check each kind of the material’s technical data firstly.
Of course, it is unable and unnecessary to check thousands of material, based on the experience and prerequisite of simplification, roughly checking and filter the most unsuitable materials group. Hence, in fact, the initial selection usually contain only a portion of the usable materials. Then according to the basic purposes’ requirement, narrow the selection scope of candidate materials, keep them for further detailed assessment. Meanwhile, make sure all the details of the requirements were considered without omitting.

How to deal with the problem of fusion line?

图片
Reason analysis: From the perspective of plastics, the melting line is essentially caused by the incomplete melting of two plastic flow fronts. Solution: To eliminate or reduce the melting line, plastics must have low viscosity, high temperature, sufficient pressure and enough time to melt completely. Usually, in the case of good exhaust, accelerating the filling and feeding speed and increasing the pressure as soon as possible after the combination of two plastic flow fronts will help to solve the melting line problem.

How to solve the problem of surface depression?

图片
Basic Reasons : From the perspective of plastics, when the plastics are cooled and contracted, insufficient feeding will lead to dents on the external surface or holes in the interior of the products. Depression occurs in different locations, and the causes and solutions of the defects are also different. 1. When the depression occurs at the final cooling position of the thick-walled product or at a distance from the gate: Cause analysis: Typical surface depressions or voids at the thick wall and far away from the gate are usually due to the increase of effective viscosity and pressure loss, resulting in insufficient cavity pressure, resulting in insufficient feeding pressure. Solution: Increase the pressure of feeding and speed up the feeding rate 2. Surface depressions or cavitations occur near the gate Cause analysis: Depression occurs near gate, usually due to lack of gate freezing. There are several reasons affecting gate freezing: it may be caused by the decrease of ef...

Analysis of Common Defects in Plastic Products-Size Change

Basic Reasons: From the perspective of plastics, the reasons for the size change are as follows: The change of pressure distribution in U-shaped cavity will cause the change of size. For crystalline plastics, the change of crystallinity due to the change of cooling rate will cause the change of size. After-treatment of U products, changes in ambient temperature and humidity can also cause size changes. Next, the change of pressure distribution in the cavity and the size change are analyzed and discussed. The causes of defects will vary with the size changes. First, defect phenomenon: the overall product size is too small. Cause analysis: the plastic pressure in the cavity is too low. Solution: Increase the feeding pressure to meet the cavity pressure required by qualified products. 2. Defects: Overall product size is too large Cause analysis: the plastic pressure in the cavity is too high. Solution: Reduce the feeding pressure to achieve the cavity pressure require...
