There is a common method of manufacturing parts that are replicated at high volumes. Injection molding is used in the making of things like bottle caps, pocket combs, one-piece chairs and small tables. Certain storage containers and any other plastic product that is available in shops, all fall under this way of manufacturing.
Jons J Berzelius made the first concentration of polymer from a white crystalline organic acid and a thick, odorless and colorless liquid. He came up with terms like allotrope, isomer, polymer and catalysis for all the different chemicals that he used. He named one such chemical "polymer" that described a natural compound that was made up of the same formula but was different in its molecular weight.
Each of these molding machines has many different components and come in different configurations. These can include a horizontal or a vertical configuration. Whatever the design may be each will need to have a power source, injection unit and well as a mold assembly and clamping unit.
Later another material was made and was called Celluliod. These were created from using compounds produced that reacted to nitric and sulfuric acids as well as a strong smelling compound known today as camphor. Dyes and other agents were also added.
The whole cycle is very short normally between two seconds to two minutes and consists of four stages. Before the material is injected into the mold it needs to be very securely closed by a clamping unit. Each mould it attached to the molding machine and the top half is allowed to move.
The material then enters the grooves of the screw and is pushed towards the mold as the screw rotates. The molten is injected quickly through a nozzle at the end of the barrel by pressure that has been building up. This pressure lets the material be packed and held in the mold.
During the Second World War this industry expanded drastically as there was a huge demand for inexpensive and mass produced products. In the middle 1900s the first screw injection machine was made and this one allowed more control over the quickness and superiority of articles produced. The gas assisted process then came about and this permitted a more complex production of hollow articles.
This form of molding has allowed articles to be flexible as well as keeping the strength and finish of the manufactured parts. This also reduced the production time for running these machines. Any off cuts that came out of these molds could be recycled back into usable pellets saving money.
