Injection molding is a manufacturing process for producing parts by injecting molten material into a mold. It is used to manufacture solid objects, such as bottle caps, phone cases, keyboards, toys, automotive parts, mechanical parts, gears, and etc. Injection molding is the most common modern method of manufacturing plastic parts.
These are commonly used plastic injection molding materials:
- Polystyrene (PS)
- Polypropylene (PP)
- Nylon Polyamide (PA)
- Polycarbonate (PC)
- Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS)
- Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)
- Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET)
- Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS)
- Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT)
- Bulk molding compound (BMC)
