Introduction of plastic mold
Apr 14, 2022
Plastic mold, a combined plastic mold for compression molding, extrusion molding, injection molding, blow molding and low-foaming molding The cavity-modifying die is a punch with a variable core, which is composed of a punch combination base plate, a punch component, a punch combination card board, a cavity cut-off component and a side section combination plate. Coordinated change of mold convex, concave mold and auxiliary forming system. It can process a series of plastic parts of different shapes and sizes.
In order to improve the performance of plastics, various auxiliary materials, such as fillers, plasticizers, lubricants, stabilizers, colorants, etc., must be added to the polymer to become a plastic with good performance.
1. Synthetic resin is the main component of plastic, and its content in plastic is generally 40% to 100%. Due to the large content and the properties of resins that often determine the properties of plastics, people often regard resins as synonymous with plastics. For example, polyvinyl chloride resin is confused with polyvinyl chloride plastic, phenolic resin and phenolic plastic. In fact, resin and plastic are two different concepts. Resin is a raw, unprocessed polymer that is used not only to make plastics, but also as a raw material for coatings, adhesives, and synthetic fibers. In addition to a very small part of plastics containing 100 resin, the vast majority of plastics need to add other substances in addition to the main component resin.
2. Fillers Fillers are also called fillers, which can improve the strength and heat resistance of plastics and reduce costs. For example, adding wood powder to phenolic resin can greatly reduce the cost, making phenolic plastic one of the cheap plastics, and at the same time, it can significantly improve the mechanical strength. Fillers can be divided into organic fillers and inorganic fillers, the former such as wood flour, rags, paper and various fabric fibers, etc., the latter such as glass fiber, diatomaceous earth, asbestos, carbon black and so on.
3. Plasticizers Plasticizers can increase the plasticity and softness of plastics, reduce brittleness, and make plastics easy to process and shape. Plasticizers are generally miscible with resins, non-toxic, odorless, high-boiling organic compounds that are stable to light and heat. Phthalates are commonly used. For example, when producing polyvinyl chloride plastics, if more plasticizers are added, soft polyvinyl chloride plastics can be obtained. .
4. Stabilizer In order to prevent the synthetic resin from being decomposed and destroyed by light and heat during processing and use, and prolong the service life, stabilizer should be added to the plastic. Commonly used are stearate, epoxy resin and so on.
5. Colorants Colorants can make plastics have various bright and beautiful colors. Organic dyes and inorganic pigments are commonly used as colorants.
6. Lubricant The function of the lubricant is to prevent the plastic from sticking to the metal mold during molding, and at the same time make the surface of the plastic smooth and beautiful. Commonly used lubricants are stearic acid and its calcium and magnesium salts. In addition to the above additives, flame retardants, foaming agents, antistatic agents, etc. can also be added to the plastic.
