1. Different types of molds

1.1 Principle

Polymer injection molding relies on temperature-dependent changes in polymer properties: in the press barrel, molten polymers are viscoelastic, compressible fluids, and are transferred in this state to the mold cavities.

The mould is maintained at a temperature below the glass transition temperature. $T_{g}$ for amorphous polymers and below the crystallization temperature $T_{c}$ for crystalline...
