Presentación

The most important aspect when designing a new plastic product is the polymer matrix selection.

Mechanical and thermal properties, aesthetics, processability, long durability, health and food regulations, price or potential modifications have to be balanced to find the better performance in our final products.

Based on these points and studying accurately selection will be good and further processes too, normally plastic selection is free of costs but if selection is not good lot of expenses will occur : wrong equipment, molds, dies, another tools, etc.

Metodología

  • A webinar is an online web-based meeting where participants can see what speakers display in their screens and listen to their explanations. Webinars are made in real time and on a specific date and hour and their main characteristic is interactivity between the teacher and the attendees. Attendees only need a computer with active audio and Internet connection to interact with the teacher by using the chat.
