Relaxation properties of polyoxymethylene and ethylene–octene copolymer blend in solid and melt states
(2012-08-30)
Rheological properties of polyoxymethylene (POM) and ethylene–octene copolymer (EOC) in solid and melt states were investigated. Blends were prepared with a twin screw extruder at broad component wt-to-wt ratios (10, 30, 50, 70, 90 wt% of EOC). The morphology as well as calorimetric, rheological, and elastic properties of the blends were studied. The investigation showed that POM/EOC blends were heterogeneous in nature and had a broad phase transition region between 30 and 70 wt% of POM. Because during processing ...

Pull and Foam - Injection moulding method: Foamed ribs for stiffening plane components
(Society of Plastics Engineers, 2012)
The pull and foam method is a foam injection moulding method which is currently being developed at the Institut für Werkstofftechnik (IfW) (Institute of Materials Engineering) at the University of Kassel. The processing principle represents an alternative to the existing foam injection moulding special procedures and introduces the possibility to partially foam a component. In so doing, thin-walled, hardly foamed components with foamed ribs can be made in one processing step, thus also components with graded ...
