6.0    POLYMER PROCESSING



                     D.  __________  air  is  ‘blown’  into  the  mould.  This  forces  the  liquid  plastic  against  the
                     sides of the ________. In this example it forms the shape of a plastic __________.












                     E.  The  plastic  is  allowed  to  _____  and  the  mould  is  ‘_____’  and  the  plastic  bottle
                     removed. The entire process is _________ hundreds or thousands of times.



                  6.4 COMPRESSION MOLDING






























                         Figure 6.9 (a) Compression mould (b) Sequence of compression molding process.


                  Compression molding started when pressure is applied by a hydraulic press to the two halves
                  of the mold which puts the material and the mold under a compressive load (Figure 6.9).

                      1.  Compression molding started when pressure is applied by a hydraulic press to the two

                         halves  of  the  mold  which  puts  the  material  and  the  mold  under  a  compressive  load
                         (Figure 6.9).
