Abstract

The chemical structure and the nature of plastics materials have a significant relationship not only to the properties of the plastic but to the ways in which it can be processed, designed, or otherwise translated into an end-product. Throughout this book the reader will find various references to polymer chemistry (e.g., the section entitled “Theory of Injection Molding,” in Chapter 5 on “Injection Molding”).
