The First Snap-FitHandbook 2ECrea ng and Managing A achments for Plas c Parts


The ‘system level’ knowledgeand design skills needed tocreate good snap- t interfacesexisted in the minds of self-taught snap- t experts but wasnot captured in the literature.

New designers of plas c parts

wishing to use snap- t hadnowhere to turn unless theywere fortunate enough to haveaccess to an experienced snap-

Plas cs manufacturing is ahighly interdisciplinary endeavorrequiring knowledge relatedto materials science, physics,engineering, and manage-ment. Because of this diversity,the plas cs process engineerinteracts with many stake-holders, including customers,designers, materials suppliers,machine builders, mold/die

suppliers, systems integrators,operators, quality engineers,and managers. With so manystakeholders involved, it isn’tsurprising that many plas csmanufacturing processes are notprecisely engineered systems.The resul ng processes can bepoorly designed, requiring toomuch investment to achieve tooli le produc vity. This book waswri en for plas cs processingengineers, but it is also highlyuseful to others involved withplas cs manufacturing who areperforming process develop-ment, research, and evenmachinery design.

Hollow Plas c PartsDesign and Manufacture


Hollow plas c parts range in sizefrom small unit dose liquor bot-tles, doll heads and syringe bulbsto large gasoline tanks, pallets,and playground equipment.Designers and design engineersare o en familiar with one wayof making these parts but maynot be aware of other methodsthat may o er greater designand performance exibility.

The book provides comprehen-sive design and manufacturingcomparisons of three majormethods—blow molding, rota-

Thermal Analysis ofPlas csTheory and Prac ce


Thermal analysis has proven tobe one of the most importantand meaningful test methodsin the plas cs industry and intes ng laboratories. Althoughthermal analysis is used forfundamental studies related tomaterials science of polymers,its power lies in understandingthis behavior during manufactur-ing processes. This understand-ing aids in process op miza on,reduc on of manufacturingcycle mes, failure analysis, andthe overall improvement of thematerial proper es of the n-ished product. In this book, thedi erent test methods and theirvaria ons are described in detail,emphasizing the principles andtheir applica on in prac ce. Us-ing prac cal examples, di erentapproaches to problem solvingare presented with a focus onthe interpreta on of the experi-mental results.

Scanning electron microscopy(SEM) is o en used in plas csfailure analysis when lightmicroscopy cannot provide im-ages of high enough resolu on.SEM images also provide highercontrast, in par cular of surfacetextures. SEM is also advanta-geous with very dark surfaces

and transparent materials.This book is an unrivaledcomprehensive collec on ofSEM images covering topicssuch as surface proper es,adhesion, joining, fracture, andother types of failure of plas cparts, which are of decisiveimportance for the economicsuccess of plas cs manufactur-ing opera ons.

Tes ng of plas cs provides aninsight to the behavior of thematerial in response to appliedloads or exposure to the envi-ronment and me. In order todetermine the true performanceof a plas c material, a compre-hensive understanding of thebroad range of plas cs behavior,such as its me chanical, thermal,electrical, rheological, physicaland chemical proper es as well

as environmental resistance isnecessary. In industrial prac ce,fabricated parts are o en testedas part of the design valida onstep to ensure that end useperformance requirements areadequately met.

This book provides a com-prehensive discussion of testmethods for various proper esof plas cs, related to di er-ent material types and forms,with reference to na onal,interna onal and applica on/industry speci c test methods ina prac cal, easy to understandmanner.

“...the most comprehensive andimportant work ever writtenon the aging process that takes place with polymers under vari-ous circumstances.”

Structure and Rheologyof Molten PolymersFrom Structure to FlowBehavior and Back Again


Developments in recent yearshave made it possible topredict the detailed molecularstructure of a polymer based onpolymeriza on condi ons andto use this knowledge to predictrheological proper es. Newtechniques for using rheologicaldata to infer molecular structurehave also been developed. Soonit will be possible to use this newknowledge to design a molecularstructure having prescribedprocessability and end-productproper es, to specify thecatalyst and reac on condi onsnecessary to produce a polymerhaving this structure, and touse rheology to verify that thestructure desired has, in fact,been produced.

This book is a comprehensiveintroduc on to the study ofpolymers. Special emphasis isgiven to the characteris cs thatset polymers apart from smallmolecules, as studied in classicchemistry courses. The variousbranches of polymer scienceare introduced and discussedin a systema c manner, star ngfrom basic chemical structures,con nuing through supermo-lecular organiza on, and physicalproper es. Speci c examplesare used throughout to illustratehow end use relates to the prin-ciples under discussion. A seriesof chapters is devoted to casestudies describing the principleclasses of synthe c polymers.

This introduc on to polymermaterials science is divided intothree major sec ons: Basic Prin-ciples, In uence of Processingon Proper es, and EngineeringDesign Proper es. The rst edi-

on of this textbook was praisedfor its vast number of graphsand data that can be used asreference. The new secondedi on further strengthens thisa ribute with a new appendixcontaining material propertygraphs for the commonly usedpolymers. However, the mostimportant change implementedin this edi on is the introduc onof real-world examples and avariety of problems at the end ofeach chapter.
