Nylon 6,6 is a thermoplastic polymer with high mechanical strength, high resistance to chemical environments, and good stability under heat. Therefore, it is well suited to be used in 3D structural objects. A cylindrical nylon 6,6 pipe is made by injection molding. The pipe is 1 m long with an outer diameter of 8cm, and a thickness of 2mm. The crystallinity of the pipe is 25%. The density and associated percent crystallinity for two nylon 6,6 samples are measured as below: ρ(g/cm3) crystallinity (%) 1.190 67 1.155 44 If the degree of polymerization is 500, calculate the number of chains in the pipe. (Assume the chains are equal in length).
Compression molding is a manufacturing process in which the molding material is preheated then placed in an open mold cavity where the compressive action of the punch forces the polymer into the desired shape as shown in the figure below. Based on your understanding of the behavior of polymers, which of the statements below regarding compression molding of polymers are accurate? Punch Cavity C. -Upper mold half Charge 41 (1) -Lower mold half Knock-out pin V, F |x.F (2) and (3) Molded part a. Lower operating temperatures are more desirable as they reduce viscosity making it easier to fill the cavity b. This process can only be used for thermosets as they can thermally cure from monomer state This process can be used for both thermosets and thermoplastics as they can both be thermally shaped d. This process is suitable for rubber, PVC and polymethyl methacrylate
