Kunststoffe international, 2006-09-27, Film Extrusion: More and More Layers
Extrusion More and More Layers Film Extrusion. Plastic films have become an important part of our daily lives – 50% of all plastic packaging is based on films. The fact that packaging represents one-third of plastics consumption in Germany underscores the exceptional importance of an everyday product. These facts are not likely to surprise experts. Most consumers, however, have no idea of the many requirements that plastic films must satisfy today. The purchaser in a supermarket is almost com...
Kunststoffe international, 2009-10-14, For the Third Industrial Revolution
Twenty years ago, generative production techniques started to conquer design departments all over the globe in the form of rapid prototyping. Despite this, the chief problems inherent in these techniques have still not been (fully) solved. Although the inferior-quality surfaces are now of a somewhat better quality without finishing work, they still cannot be regarded as good. Changes in the material – especially on the surface – and also anisotropy are still the order of the day. The range of ma...
Kunststoffe international, 2010-08-19, Environmental Awareness as a Business Plan
In addition to four material suppliers, five manufacturers of additives, compounds and reinforcing fibers presented their new strategies and products at the pre-K press conference held in Amsterdam, Netherlands, at the end ofMay. Since climate change and its effects are still major topics, the companies have followed this trend, as was the case with the previous plastics fair. For instance, joint ventures have been formed and research projects initiated in order to promote additional development...
Kunststoffe international, 2011-04-25, Multiaxial Textile Grids
In recent years, there has been a large increase in the range of applications of fiber composites with thermoplastic matrices. The main reasons for this fact lie in the potential savings in part weight. Moreover, fiber-reinforced thermoplastic parts can be manufactured inexpensively using high-productivity processes, such as injection molding, compression molding or long-fiber injection molding (LFI). To meet higher requirements on the load bearing strength of such thermoplastic parts, besides c...

Kunststoffe international, 2012-11-26, Lighter in the Air, in the Wind and on the Road
The sharp rise in demand for carbon fiber reinforced composites (Fig. 1) predicted for the years ahead is essentially driven by current developments in the transport sector. To satisfy the requirements of EU legislation to cut average carbon dioxide emissions per car maker to 130 g/km by the year 2015, the automotive industry is increasingly resorting to materials that offer high potential for use in lightweight construction, especially carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRPs). As rolling fricti...
Kunststoffe international, 2013-05-16, Hidden in Plain View
In terms of market share within the family of thermoplastic elastomers thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) stands in third place behind the polyolefins and styrene copolymers. The worldwide market for TPUs (Fig. 1) is still moving towards a consumption of 1 million t/a, however it is not possible to draw a sharp division from the hot melt adhesives based on the same chemistry. For example low melting point TPUs are used in shoes and film whilst grades with hardnesses in the high Shore A range are u...

Kunststoffe international, 2018-02-21, Monomers Coursing through the Veins
Natural fibers are light, economical and renewable. Which is why they are being increasingly considered for structural components. However, when moisture penetrates into the fibers, their mechanical properties suffer. Cavity polymerization can close the fiber cavities and prevent the natural fibers from absorbing as much water. Natural fibers absorb moisture and therefore often possess insufficient mechanical strength. That is why they cannot be used in areas of application such as glass- and ca...
Kunststoffe international, 2018-09-19, Induction Heating of CF-Reinforced Polymers
Induction as contactless heating technology is also attractive for composite materials. The efficiency of the technology has so far been limited by the resulting complex temperature distribution. Therefore, it is necessary to fundamentally investigate the influences of the laminate parameters on the induction heating behavior of CFRP. In 1831, Michael Faraday postulated that the temporal change of a magnetic field causes a current. This principle of induction is used, for instance, in systems fo...
