Thermoplastics is molded by first subjecting them to heat which makes them melt. In their molten state, they can then be molded to make the products of choice.

Can you re-use thermoplastic?

Basically there are two types of thermoplastic, thermoset and thermoform. Thermoset becomes hard when heated an example would be Bakelite. A thermoform plastic gets soft when heated and can be reformed. An example would be abs such as used in plastic pipe. Gil


What manufacturing processes were applied to SS Forged Fittings?

There are four processes of manufacturing a SS forged fittings. First is Mandrel method, as the name suggests a curved mandrel is inserted into a length of pipe. Extrusion Method consists of a machine that has the mould of the fitting into which the pipe inserted and come out in the shape of a fittings.Next is the UO method in which a piece of sheet is cut out and then it is pressed on an anvil that has the inverted shape of a fittings. Hot Forming Method is somewhat similar to Extrusion Method, here a piece of pipe goes through a mould of the fittings and come out in the needed shape.


Can you melt metal?

Yes you can, although some more eaisily than others as they all have different melting points. To find out the exact melting points you can google, for example:: 'Melting point of Iron' Melting metals is quite commonly used in industries to shape the metal into a mould, which is called 'Casting'.


What are the industrial uses of polyethene?

a polythene is a plastic and in industry its use for a holding container for food, plastic shopping bag, to make bread bags, in news paper bags, to make toilet paper packaging, paper towel plastic packaging, grocery bags and air cushion bags. also they all have slightly different chemical properties.


What is D2 tool steel?

D2 steel is a steel that is vacuum heat treated i.e raised to a high temp and rapidly cooled by a vacuum process it is an ideal steel to use for punch and dies or injection mould tools. It is a difficult material to machine and requires a special wheel for surface grinding after heat treatment. It also hardly moves during the treatment process so you can manufacture parts as thin as 2mm and leave only 0.004 for finish grinding. D-2 is a high-carbon high-chromium tool steel manufactured for high abrasive wear applications. D-2 can be heat treated to RC 64. This grade as a low tempering temperature. Many of the common coatings can not be applied because the process temperature used to apply the coating is higher than the tempering temperature of the D-2 tool steel. For this material, D2 tool steel, you can find detailed data check list at www dot astmsteel dot com/product/d2-tool-steel-1-2379-x153crmo12-skd11/. The high chromium content gives this grade some stainless properties, although, it is not classified as a stainless steel. D-2 is used for barrel liners in the plastic molding industry, die components in the metal stamping industry, and many other applications requiring high wear resistance in many other industries.
