  2. Thermoplastic elastomer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoplastic_elastomer

    TPE is commonly used to make suspension bushings for automotive performance applications because of its greater resistance to deformation when compared to regular rubber bushings. Thermoplastics have experienced growth in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning ( HVAC ) industry due to the function, cost effectiveness and adaptability to ...

  3. Heat-shrink tubing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat-shrink_tubing

    Heat-shrink tubing (or, commonly, heat shrink or heatshrink) is a shrinkable plastic tube used to insulate wires, providing abrasion resistance and environmental protection for stranded and solid wire conductors, connections, joints and terminals in electrical wiring.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Video_of_Heat_shrink...

    English: Heat shrink tubing applied using hot air gun, the type of tubing used was a polyolefin based, irridation cross-linked and adhesive lined - called TTP Heatshrink, the tubing was shrunk using a 2000 watt hot air gun

  5. Plasmapheresis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasmapheresis

    Plasmapheresis (from the Greek πλάσμα, plasma, something molded, and ἀφαίρεσις aphairesis, taking away) is the removal, treatment, and return or exchange of blood plasma or components thereof from and to the blood circulation. It is thus an extracorporeal therapy, a medical procedure performed outside the body. [1]

  6. Shrink-fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shrink-fitting

    Shrink-fitting is a technique in which an interference fit is achieved by a relative size change after assembly. This is usually achieved by heating or cooling one component before assembly and allowing it to return to the ambient temperature after assembly, employing the phenomenon of thermal expansion to make a joint.

  7. Thermoplastic polyurethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoplastic_polyurethane

    TPU is the right choice when flexibility at low temperatures and/or an abrasion resistant thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) is requested. Polyether-based TPU in cases where additional excellent hydrolysis and microbial resistance is required, as well as in cases where extreme low-temperature flexibility is important. Ester-based TPU in cases where ...

  8. Heat-shrinkable sleeve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat-shrinkable_sleeve

    Heat-shrinkable sleeves are applied onto the cutback at the field weld or "field joint" during the construction of a pipeline. As described above, the heat-shrinkable sleeves have an adhesive that sticks the sleeve to the cutback and the factory applied mainline coating and also acts as a corrosion protective layer.

  9. Polyethylene terephthalate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyethylene_terephthalate

    While at room temperature the molecules are frozen in place, if enough heat energy is put back into them afterward by heating the material above T g, they can begin to move again, allowing crystals to nucleate and grow. This procedure is known as solid-state crystallization.
