Compression Molding

The book presents a well-rounded overview of the underlying theory and physics that control the various compression molding processes without losing the practical flavor that governs the manuscript between its covers. The first chapter presents a historical background and the fundamentals covering the various compression molding processes and materials. Chapters 2 and 3 discuss the materials and processing fundamentals. Here, a unified approach is used pulling in the influence of processing on the properties of a finished product. Chapter 4 covers in depth design of compression molded parts. The last chapter presents extensive process and material troubleshooting procedures that will be useful to anyone in the industry at any stage of process and product design.
