Parameter recommendation for injection molding based on similarity analysis of injection molded parts
(2023)
Injection molding is a widespread manufacturing process for producing complex plastic shapes. The process is controlled by a large number of parameters, which show interactions with each other. Thereby the determination of an optimal operating point during sampling is a resource-consuming and demanding task. The data, which is generated during sampling, is usually not used for subsequent sampling processes. In the context of Industry 4.0, manufacturing companies attempt to optimize production efficiency to save time ...

Baumwolle als Faserverstärkung
(2023)
Jedes Jahr landen große Mengen Textilen auf Deponien oder in der thermischen Verwertung. Ein Teil dieser Abfälle könnte allerdings auch als Rohstoffe für Verbundwerkstoffe dienen. Baumwollfasern eignen sich etwa als Verstärkungsfasern, die die mechanischen Eigenschaften von biobasierten Kunststoffen steigern. Durch die Nutzung solcher Abfallströme können in Zukunft kostengünstig und biobasiert Materialien verstärkt werden.

UV Surface Treatment of Polycarbonate for Adhesion Improvement to Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR)
(2018)
The adhesion of self-adhesive liquid silicone rubbers to thermoplasts is only possible for a few selected material combinations without a surface pretreatment. A UV pretreatment is effective for polycarbonate and short irradiation periods are sufficient. To clarify the required irradiation conditions that result in an improvement of adhesion, the varying irradiation conditions were assessed. FTIR-ATR spectroscopy was used for surface analysis to characterize the change in the polymer surface.

Textile Waste Becomes Plastic Composites
(2023-09)
Every year, large quantities of textiles end up in landfills or in thermal recycling. However, some of this waste could also serve as raw materials for composite materials. Left-over cotton fibers of the textile industry, for example, are suitable as reinforcing fibers that enhance the mechanical properties of bio-based plastics. By using such waste streams, materials can be reinforced in a cost-effective and bio-based way in the future.
