The V-notch at weld lines in polystyrene injection moldings

A major factor that weakens the weld line in injection moldings is the V-notch structure. Though the existence of a V-notch is well known, its depth variation with molding conditions has not been detailed. The aim of this paper is to clarify the V-notch structure and its effect on the strength of general purpose polystyrene injection moldings. A dog bone type tensile specimen with a weld line was molded under several molding conditions. The surface of the weld line was partially eliminated by cutting with a milling machine to seven levels of cut depth (D_c). As a result, the weld strength increased with D_c to about 50%. The relationship between the weld strength and D_c made it possible to determine the V-notch depth, which vas defined as the “depth of the weld line.” From these results, a hypothesis is proposed that the V-notch has a structure with a fine groove on the surface and a poorly bonded inner layer. This study considered the relationships among the weld strength, the depth of the weld line, and molding conditions.

Generation of large residual stresses in injection moldings

Large residual stresses have been generated in injection molded bars by ejecting them prematurely and completing the cooling process by quenching into ice water or liquid nitrogen. The stress distribution formed under these conditions was found to be much closer to parabolic than is the case when the moldings cool conventionally. Limited testing on moldings made in this way indicated significant property enhancement and improved resistance to ultraviolet degradation.     

Structure and properties of injection moldings of polypropylene/polystyrene blends

A homoisotactic polypropylene (PP) was melt blended with 0–30 wt % of three kinds of polystyrene (PS) with melt flow indexes lower than, similar to, and higher than that of PP. The blends were injection molded at cylinder temperatures of 200–280°C, and the structure and properties of the injection moldings were studied. With PS blending, although the PP molding whitened, no surface defect such as layer peeling and pearl-like appearance occurred. The rigidity and dimensional accuracy of the molding improved without much deterioration in impact strength and heat resistance. At the same time the fluidity also improved. The injection moldings of PP/PS blends did not show clear skin/core structure under a polarizing microscope. The degrees of crystallinity and crystalline c-axis orientation decreased with PS blending. PS particles were the smallest when the ratio of the viscosity of the PS to that of PP at molding shear rate was slightly lower than unity. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
