There was no shortage of interesting materials developments at K 2013, in particular high-performance engineering thermoplastics and thermoplastic composites—much of them geared to automotive/transportation.

Technical capabilities of the process have advanced to erase former cycle-time penalties, and ongoing developments address creation of a materials database and new applications in hybrid composite injection overmolding.

For Wilbert Plastic Services, it’s all about bringing together design and engineering to add value for customers.

Specialty house avoids commodity markets and has entered the proprietary processing business with new product offering.

Natural Fibers in Plastics Up 60%/YrNatural-fiber composites will surge by 60% annually over the next five years, according to a new study from Klein & Co., Inc., Little Falls, N.J.

Lots of Recent Acquisitions In Resins & AdditivesA number of major businesses have changed hands recently.

Thermosets have been on my mind lately.

Advanced materials and high-speed molding machines comprise a new turnkey system for thermoplastic composites.

New machine utilizes ultrasonic waves to melt plastics for micromolding, as opposed to the shear and conductive heating used in standard processes.

Ultrasonic technology is not new to plastics, applied widely as a welding technology for joining parts, but what if it could be used to completely rethink the injection molding process?
