Reaction injection molding (RIM) is similar to injection molding except thermosetting polymers are used, which requires a curing reaction to occur within the mold. Common items made via RIM include automotive bumpers , air spoilers , and fenders .
Impinging mixers combine and disperse resins within each other, and are often used in reaction injection molding (RIM). Mixing occurs as two high velocity streams collide in a mixing chamber. High velocity results in a turbulent rather than a laminar flow. Impingement mixing is most effective when it occurs at the center of the mixing chamber.
Injection moulding (U.S. spelling: injection molding) is a manufacturing process for producing parts by injecting molten material into a mould, or mold. Injection moulding can be performed with a host of materials mainly including metals (for which the process is called die-casting ), glasses , elastomers , confections , and most commonly ...
Left: individual linear polymer chains Right: Polymer chains which have been cross linked to give a rigid 3D thermoset polymer. In materials science, a thermosetting polymer, often called a thermoset, is a polymer that is obtained by irreversibly hardening ("curing") a soft solid or viscous liquid prepolymer (). [1]
Methods include whisking-in air or other gases or low boiling volatile liquids in low viscosity lattices, or the injection of a gas into an extruder barrel or a die, or into injection molding barrels or nozzles and allowing the shear/mix action of the screw to disperse the gas uniformly to form very fine bubbles or a solution of gas in the melt.
The closed-mold process, more commonly known as reaction injection molding (RIM), injects the mixed components into a closed mold under high pressures. [30] Gallery
The basic concept of the gas-assisted molding process is quite similar to the regular injection molding process. In gas-assisted molding, the plastic material is injected into the mold cavities like the regular injection molding process but only up to 70%~80% of the mold volume. The melted plastic in contact with the mold walls begins to ...
