The process of Injection Moulding Cycle has the following 4 stages:- 1. Clamping- The multiple parts of the mould are securely clamped. 2. Injection- The raw plastic material, usually in the form of pellets, is fed into the machine. During this process, the pellets are melted by heat and pressure. The molten plastic is then injected into the mould by injection unit very quickly and the build-up of pressure packs and holds the material. 3. Cooling- The molten plastic that is inside the mould begins to cool as soon as it makes contact with the interior mould surfaces. As the plastic cools, it will solidify into the shape of the desired part. However, during cooling some shrinkage of the part may occur. The packing of material in the injection stage allows additional material to flow into the mould and reduce the amount of visible shrinkage. The mould can not be opened until the required cooling time has elapsed. 4. Ejection- After sufficient time has passed, the cooled part may be ejected from the mould. When the mould is opened, a mechanism is used to push the part out of the mould. Force must be applied to eject the part because during cooling the part shrinks and adheres to the mould.
Thermoplastics plastics can be heated and then moulded into a shape or form, but thermosetting cannot. Each plastic can be moulded into a 'shape or form', it is just that thermoplastics, once they have been moulded, they can be re-heated and moulded again, where-as once thermosetting plastics have been moulded, if re-heated and you try to remould it, it will just make it brittle and snap instead.
Plastic cups are made through a process called injection molding. Plastic resin pellets are heated and injected under high pressure into a mold in the shape of a cup. The plastic cools and hardens, and is then ejected from the mold as a finished cup.
i am a GCSE student in Southport and in chemistry i am learning all about plastic's. "Thermosetting" plastic is used because once it is heated and moulded into a shape it can not be reheated and moulded again. However "thermoplastic" plastics can. The particular use of your laptop casing does not require and reshaping or remoulding so to give the laptop most stability and strength the "thermosetting" plastic is used as they are stronger.

Polymers are plastic. Thermosoftening is hard when it is cold and flexible when it is warm. Thermosetting is flexible when cold and hard when hotThermosetting plastics are polymers that, once heated, melted and moulded, cannot be re-moulded as the bond between their molecules are too strong. Thermosoftening plastics are polymers which can be re-moulded many times as the bonds between the molecules are very weak. Thermosetting plastics can only be shaped once. Thermosoftening plastics can be shaped and re-shaped many times. :) hope this is helpful x
No, it is not an injuction moulded plastic item. it is manufactured by using wet lay up or hand lay up moulding process
Blow moulding is when plastic granules are injected into a mould after being melted, and then compressed air is blown into the mould to hollow it out. This can make shapes like bins and bowls.

There are many different types of plastic moulding, most of which is manufactured in China. Depending upon which type of plastic moulding is used would determine the way the moulding is fitted.

The resulting moulding with incomplete filling of the plastic resin is called in practice as short moulding.
It is made out of plastic and is injection moulded, ie, a metal mould is made with an empty space in the shape of the PSP's outer plates, then melted plastic is injected into that gap so it can set in the shape of the plates.
If it wasn't all you have is a blob.
a plastic pen is made out of a special type of plastic that is moulded to the shape of a pen! :)
Thermoplastic injection moulding is the process of injected hot plastic or glass into a mould to form a specific shape or product. Often used to make smaller parts for toys or machinery.

it means that plastic can easily change shape. You can easily change the shape of a plastic object.
