Thermosetting Compression Moulding is a crucial plastics processing technique that has revolutionized the manufacturing industry. It offers an efficient and cost-effective method of creating complex plastic parts with high dimensional accuracy.
The process of thermosetting compression moulding begins with the heating of a thermosetting resin, which is a reactive material that undergoes a chemical reaction upon heating. As the resin is heated, it softens and becomes moldable, allowing it to be poured into a mold. The mold is typically made of metal and has the desired shape of the final plastic part.
Once the resin is poured into the mold, it is compressed using pressure. This pressure ensures that the resin fills every crevice and corner of the mold, ensuring a uniform distribution of material. As the resin cools, it undergoes a chemical crosslinking reaction, converting it from a liquid to a solid material with excellent mechanical properties.
