Development of a noble aluminum-pigmented metallic polymer: Recommendations for visible flow and weld line mitigation

We investigated the appearance of flow and weld lines when metallic pigments are used in polymer blends and how such lines can be eliminated by improving the pigment particle shape and optimizing pigment loading. Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene copolymer and two types of aluminum flakes, lamellar and three-dimensional (3D), were blended in a twin-screw extruder with a screw diameter of 25 mm. The temperatures from the hopper to the nozzle were 140, 180, 220, 220, 220, 220, and 220°C. Weld and flow lines were observed using field-emission scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy of specially manufactured injection specimens. In the flow line region, traditional lamellar flakes were randomly oriented, while 3D flakes exhibited a distinct and stable orientation. Based on these observations, flow and weld lines in a finished metal/polymer blend can be minimized by using 3D metal particles in place of lamellar flakes. We also investigated the effects of aluminum flake loading on weld and flow line visibility. At low loading, weld lines were clearly visible due to the lack of pigmentation in the front of the polymer flow. Conversely, high loading resulted in relatively high concentrations of pigment near the weld line area, reducing weld line visibility. These findings suggest that there is an optimum metal loading level where the visibility of flow and weld lines is minimized.     

A study on weld line morphology and mechanical strength of injection molded polystyrene/poly(methyl methacrylate) blends

In this work, the mechanical strength and weld line morphology of injection molded polystyrene/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PS/PMMA) blends were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and mechanical property test. The experimental results show that the tensile strength of PS/PMMA blends get greatly decreased due to the presence of the weld line. Although the tensile strength without the weld line of PS/PMMA (70/30) is much higher than that of the PS/PMMA (30/70) blend, their tensile strength with weld line shows reversed change. The viscosity ratio of dispersed phase over matrix is a very important parameter for control of weld‐line morphology of the immiscible polymer blend. In PS/PMMA (70/30) blend, the PMMA dispersed domains at the core of the weld line are spherically shaped, which is the same as bulk. While in the PS/PMMA (30/70) blend, the viscosity of the dispersed PS phase is lower than that of the PMMA matrix, the PS phase is absent at the weld line, and PS particles are highly oriented parallel to the weld line, which is a stress concentrator. This is why weld line strength of PS/PMMA (30/70) is lower than that of PS/PMMA (70/30) blend. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 84: 1856–1865, 2002; DOI 10.1002/app.10450     

Weld‐line sensitivity of injected amorphous polymers

The effects of the processing parameters on the weld‐line mechanical properties of polystyrene (PS) and polycarbonate (PC) were investigated. PS was very sensitive to the presence of a weld line, showing property reductions of up to 70%. However, this sensitivity was mainly connected to the surface notch at the weld line. When this notch was removed, behavior close to that of unwelded specimens was obtained. The injection temperature was the main processing parameter because it affected the macromolecular diffusion speed and, therefore, influenced the weld quality. A direct relationship between the distance of molecular diffusion and the fracture mechanism was established. PC had a low weld‐line sensitivity, despite being an amorphous polymer like PS. The difference between these materials was connected to the different sizes of the surface defects and to the different entanglement densities, which influenced the relaxation time and the global behavior (brittle–ductile). © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
