Abstract:
Reaction injection moldings (RIM) having increased heat resistance are provided by employing a thiapolycyclic polyahl such as dimethyl-9-thiabicyclononane diamine as a chain extender in an otherwise conventional RIM formulation.
Abstract:
Reaction injection moldings (RIM) having increased heat resistance are provided by substituting a thiapolycyclic polyisocyanate such as dimethyl-9-thiabicyclononane diisocyanate for the aromatic polyisocyanate in an otherwise conventional RIM composition.
Abstract:
Material is supplied to a mold by direct application of gas pressure to a liquid material. A method for the shaping of at least two different synthetic resinous materials by providing a predetermined quantity of up to about 100 cm.sup.3 of a first material in a first material reservoir and a second material in a second material reservoir, the first and second material reservoirs each being in communication with a discharge line having a sufficiently narrow inner diameter such that each reactive quantity may, when propelled by sufficient gas pressure, be propelled in plug flow and each discharge line being in communication with a mold; introducing into each of the first and second gas reservoirs a predetermined volume of a gas at predetermined gas pressures sufficient to propel each quantity of material as turbulently flowing plug into the mold.
Abstract:
A method for making a fiber-reinforced thermoplastic polymer composition and forming a fabricated article therefrom. A thermoplastic polymer, a masterbatch comprising an elastomer and a reinforcing fiber material are compounded, extruded and immediately formed into a fabricated article. The fabricated article is formed by compression molding, vacuum forming, thermoforming, injection molding, blow molding, profile extrusion or combinations thereof.
