Instructional objectives
By the end of this topic, you will get a basic introduction to polymer structure and various routes of processing of polymers, and the factors to be considered during design for polymer processing.
Classification
Polymers are most commonly classified as
Thermoplastics and
Thermosetting polymer.
Processing methods of Polymers and Design Guidelines
The manufacturing process used with polymers take advantage of the unique visco-plastic flow properties of polymers. Compared with the metals, the flow stress is much lower and high strain rate dependent, the viscosity is much higher, and form ability is much greater. Some of the common manufacturing processes of polymers The common production process is given in Pdf.
