As sustainability becomes a global priority, biopolymers derived from bacteria are emerging as an eco-friendly alternative to traditional oil-based plastics.

Understanding how the process’s nature may induce deviations from the part design is crucial to meeting quality requirements in any molding project.

LOWPOLY repurposes spent coffee grounds (SCGs) into functional furniture through large-format 3D printing.

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.

Look for opportunities to shorten each step of the molding cycle. To understand these opportunities, learn how the material behaves inside the mold.

The rotomolding industry is transforming technologically, enabling manufacturers to achieve higher precision, efficiency, and sustainability.

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.

Researchers have developed a breakthrough technique to improve the durability of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), one of the most widely used plastics.
