Water‐assisted injection molding of thermoplastic materials: Effects of processing parameters

The objective of this study was to experimentally investigate the effects of various processing parameters on the water‐assisted injection molding of thermoplastic materials. Experiments were carried out on a lab‐developed water‐assisted injection molding system, which included a water pump, a water injection pin, a water tank equipped with a temperature regulator, and a control circuit. Two types of water injection pins designs were proposed to mold the parts. After molding, the lengths of water penetration in molded parts were measured. The effects of different processing parameters on the lengths of water penetration were determined. It was found that the shrinkage rate and the viscosity of the polymeric materials, and the void shapes of the hollowed cores mainly determined the water‐penetration lengths in molded products. In addition, a comparison has been made between the parts molded by water assisted injection molding and gas‐assisted injection molding. It was found that water‐assisted injection molded parts exhibit less uniform void sizes along the water channel. The cycle time for water‐assisted injection molded parts was shorter than that of conventional injection molded parts and gas‐assisted injection molded parts.     

Morphology of gas‐assisted and conventional injection molded polycarbonate/polyethylene blend

The skin‐core structure of the gas‐assisted and conventional injection molded polycarbonate (PC)/polyethylene (PE) blend was investigated. The results indicated that both the size and the shape of the dispersed PC phase depended not only on the nature of PC/PE blend and molding parameters, but also on its location in the parts. Although the gas‐assisted injection molding (GAIM) parts and conventional injection molding (CIM) part have the similar skin‐core structure, the morphology evolution of PC phase in the GAIM moldings and the CIM moldings showed completely different characteristics. In the section perpendicular to the melt flow direction, the morphology of the GAIM moldings included five layers, skin intermediate layer, subskin, core layer, core intermediate layer as well as gas channel intermediate layer, according to the degree of deformation. PC phase changed severely in the core layer of GAIM moldings, as well as in the subskin of CIM moldings. In GAIM parts, PC phase in the core layer of the nongate end changed far more intensely and aligned much orderly than that in the gate end. The morphology of PC phase in the GAIM part molded with higher gas pressure changed more severe than that in the GAIM part molded with lower gas pressure. In a word, PC phase showed more obvious fibrillation in the GAIM moldings than that in the CIM moldings. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 102: 3069–3077, 2006

Morphology of Fluid Assisted Injection Molded Polycarbonate/Polyethylene Blends

This study aims to examine the morphological development in fluid assisted injection molded high density polyethylene (HDPE)/polycarbonate (PC) blends. Samples for microscopic observation were prepared by an 80‐ton injection‐molding machine equipped with a tube cavity and with both gas and water injection units. It was observed that the shape and size of the dispersed phase depended on the position both across the part thickness and along the flow direction. Water molded parts with a smaller PC particle distribution than gas. Additionally, high fluid pressures were found to mold parts with a smaller PC particle distribution. For both gas and water assisted injection molding, small and large particles coexisted in the skin and subskin layers, indicating that both coalescence and breakup of the dispersed phase occurred in that layer.

Computer simulation of the filling process in gas‐assisted injection molding based on gas‐penetration modeling

Gas‐assisted injection molding can effectively produce parts free of sink marks in thick sections and free of warpage in long plates. This article concerns the numerical simulation of melt flow and gas penetration during the filling stage in gas‐assisted injection molding. By taking the influence of gas penetration on the melt flow as boundary conditions of the melt‐filling region, a hybrid finite‐element/finite‐difference method similar to conventional‐injection molding simulation was used in the gas‐assisted injection molding‐filling simulation. For gas penetration within the gas channel, an analytical formulation of the gas‐penetration thickness ratio was deduced based on the matching asymptotic expansion method. Finally, an experiment was employed to verify this proposed simulation scheme and gas‐penetration model, by comparing the results of the experiment with the simulation. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

INCREASING FLOW LENGTH IN THIN WALL INJECTION MOLDING USING A RAPIDLY HEATED MOLD

Injection molded parts are driven down in size and weight especially for portable electronic applications. While gains are achieved via cost reduction and increased portability, thinner parts encounter more difficulty in molding due to the frozen layer problem. To increase moldability in thin wall molding, a rapid thermal response (RTR) mold was investigated. The RTR mold is capable of rapidly raising the surface temperature to the polymer melt temperature prior to the injection stage and then rapidly cooling to the ejection temperature. The resulting filling process is done inside a hot mold cavity and formation of frozen layer is prohibited. Concepts of scalable filling and low-speed filling are discussed in the article to address the benefit of this molding method. Simulation results showed that significant reduction in injection pressure and speed can be achieved in RTR molding. In contrast to the filling behavior in conventional molding, the injection pressure in RTR molding decreases as the injection speed decreases, and therefore, extremely thin parts can be molded at lower injection speeds. Filling lengths of both RTR and conventionally molded polycarbonate samples, with two levels of thickness, under two levels of injection speed were experimentally studied. The experimental results demonstrated the advantage of the new molding method.
