The temperature that the polymer experiences upon entering the mold and during solidification directly affects several part properties, ranging from surface appearance to mechanical performance.

Bioinspired hydrogels show promise in developing artificial photosynthesis. This can provide solutions to complex challenges in sustainable energy and hydrogen generation.

The tooling digitalization during the whole supply chain is vital for maximizing productivity, improving operational efficiency, and minimizing downtime. But how and with what tools?

Fatigue failure prediction methods of elastomers help estimate product service life and play a critical role in preventing catastrophic failures.

Manufacturers increasingly use lightweight yet durable plastics to replace metals, with new applications emerging regularly.

As the demand for electric vehicles (EVs) grows, efficient, safe, and long-lasting batteries become critical to meet energy and performance needs. Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) power most EVs, but they face energy density, safety, and long-term reliability limitations.

Reverse engineering (RE) in plastics processing has become an essential method for product reproduction, improvement, and optimization. It involves a thorough understanding of the design, manufacturing, assembly, and maintenance stages.

The demand for sustainable, low-carbon materials is rising, driven by the global push toward decarbonization and the increasing focus on reducing carbon emissions.

Sustainable polymer-based anticorrosive coatings offer technical, economic, and environmental advantages. Continuous advancements in this technology aim to overcome current challenges.

Incorporating recycled rubber as a filler in carbon black for NR/BR/SBR ternary blends offers a sustainable solution for the automotive tire industry, enhancing both performance and environmental impact.
