Conference Proceedings
Improve The Performance Of Your Retort Flexible Film
In this presentation UBE will talk about the challenges of using flexible barrier films replacing traditional retort packaging and the research done to develop the right structuctures and Nylon materials to overcome these challenges.
Biopolymer Compounds For Applications Requiring Marine Degradation
The development of a biopolymer netting for the establishment of new oyster beds in intercoastal waterways is described. The netting secures the growing oysters for 18 months before biodegrading to allow the oyster bed to grow. The establishment of multiple beds will improve the water clarity and promote the growth of seagrass.
Schulamid High Performance Nylon For Fuel System Applications
Schulamid 612 compounds have low moisture absorption, good chemical resistance, and no oligomers extractions comparing nylon 12. They are suitable for fuel system applications and are good alternatives to nylon 12 compounds. This presentation describes Schulamid 612 compounds portfolio and application examples.
Advances In Wear And Friction Solutions
This presentation reviews some of the basic approaches to improving wear and friction performance in thermoplastic compounds and introduces some newer ideas in non-halogenated wear compounds.
Accelerated Weathering Insights Into Asa Polymer Uv Resistance: Xenon Vs Quv Vs Florida And Arizona
This presentation compares the differences in color and gloss retention between QUV, Xenon, Florida and Arizona testing for 4 different Acrylate-Styrene-Acrylonitrile (ASA) polymers in white, almond and black colors. The results show the similarities and differences between the accelerated weathering test methods versus Florida and Arizona four-year test results leading into a discussion of performance lifetime predictability for the ASA materials studied.
Xenoy™ ENH2900 For High Chemical Resistance & Non-Br/CL FR Applications
SABIC XENOY ENH2900 resin provides a unique value proposition to meet application requirement of excellent chemical resistance and non-Br/Cl flame retardant.
Cooling-Free Valve Gating
Cooling-free pneumatic valve gate hot runners offer all the advantages of air actuation without the limitations associated with water cooling, hydraulic systems or electric actuators. New products like Rheo-Pro® iVG™ internal valve gate nozzles and Rheo-Pro® Black Box™ actuators are ideal for all valve gate hot runner applications, including high-temperature and cleanroom molding. These products perform under even the most extreme operating conditions by doing away with elastomeric seals, lubricants, and cooling. This new technology represents the future of automated, high performance injection molding.
Sabic Thermocomp™ High Modulus Ductile (Hmd) Portfolio
SABI HMD Portfolio Helps Customer Achieve Challenged Structural Design by providing high ductility, long term aging and dimensional stability.
Enhancement Of Protective Packaging Films With Cyclic Olefin Copolymers (Coc)
Cyclic olefin copolymers (COC) provide film manufacturers and converters with an opportunity to create thin, stiff, and high barrier protective packaging products. Protective packaging is an excellent illustrative application to showcase COC as effective and efficient polyethylene modifier. Key COC performance benefits include low nitrogen and water permeability, higher stiffness, lower tear resistance and broad heat sealing window.
The New Discovery DMA850 From Ta Instruments
TA Instruments is the world leader in rheology and thermal instruments. One of our thermal/rheology instruments is the dynamic mechanical analyzer (DMA). For several years, the Q800 DMA has been the leader among DMA instruments, but, in late 2017, TA Instruments introduced the new Discovery DMA850 as the next generation DMA. The capabilities of this instrument, along with a comparison of its performance against the Q800 DMA, will be presented.
Impact PP Copolymers For Home Appliance Applications
Impact PP Copolymers for Home Appliance Applications discusses some of SABIC's offerings for both high flow impact copolymers PP and high glass and scratch resistant impact copolymers pp.

Optical Metrology For Stress Determination
An optical metrology method is presented for determining stresses in thin solids.
New Overmolding Tpes In Applications With Unique Requirements
Increasingly, overmolding is being used to enhance the functionality of a product. This presentation outlines several case studies highlighting Teknor Apex’s unique Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) solutions for overmolding applications, where properties beyond good adhesion and haptics, are required.
Two Component Micro Molding
Wittmann Battenfeld continues to refine Micro Molding with the introduction of a true Two Component Micro Molding machine.Machine features to be presented will be basic two shot intro, tooling applications, material selections and after molding solutions that will show the latest Scara robot that accompanies this machine.Part examples and case studies can be presented.This machine is based on the proven design of the MicroPower machine with refinements to incorporate two shot molding.Visual demonstrations of this progression will be included in our presentation.
Chameleon - An Unique Multiscale Modeling Tool
Chameleon is an unique Monte Carlo based software tool.
A New Grade Of High Melt Strength Polystyrene For The Xps Foam Market
XPS converters are at the limit of being able to further lightweight foodservice packaging and food packaging containers without sacrificing performance.Total has developed a new grade of high heat crystal polystyrene that allows converters to lightweight their packaging applications without sacrificing performance or processing.
Radilon Xtreme: High-Temperature Polyamides
Developing high-temperature polyamides to resist prolonged heat stress, while maintaining aesthetic properties and ease of processing.
Development Of Elongational Mixing Geometries For Twin-Screw Compounding Extruders
A new generation of non-Erdmenger mixing geometries has been developed for the multi-screw Ring Extruder which is based on twelve co-rotating and intermeshing screws to produce elongational flow for improved dispersive mixing. This paper will introduce these new element designs and their implementation on twin-screw compounding extruders.
