    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_forming

    A simple visualization of the forming process Vacuum forming machine to produce inner liner/food liner of refrigerator. Vacuum forming is a simplified version of thermoforming, where a sheet of plastic in various forms of High Impact Polystyrene Sheet (HIPS) for low impact products, or ABS for bathroom shower trays, and HDPE for exterior vehicle parts, plus various other types of vacuum ...

  3. Acrylate polymer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrylate_polymer

    Acrylic elastomer is a general term for a type of synthetic rubber whose primary component is acrylic acid alkyl ester (ethyl or butyl ester). [3] Acrylic elastomer possesses characteristics of heat and oil resistance, with the ability to withstand temperatures of 170–180 °C. It is used primarily for producing oil seals and packaging related ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poly(methyl_methacrylate)

    PMMA is also known as acrylic, acrylic glass, as well as by the trade names and brands Crylux, Hesalite, Plexiglas, Acrylite, Lucite, and Perspex, among several others . This plastic is often used in sheet form as a lightweight or shatter-resistant alternative to glass. It can also be used as a casting resin, in inks and coatings, and for many ...

    Acrylic acid (IUPAC: prop-2-enoic acid) is an organic compound with the formula CH 2 =CHCOOH. It is the simplest unsaturated carboxylic acid , consisting of a vinyl group connected directly to a carboxylic acid terminus.

  7. Resin casting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resin_casting

    Specialist equipment can enable closed molds to be filled whilst under vacuum, a process known as resin vacuum casting, where air and gas bubbles are completely removed from the cast part. Pressure and/or centrifugal force can be used to help push the liquid resin into all details of the mold. The mold can also be vibrated to expel bubbles ...

  8. Thermoforming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoforming

    Its simplified version is vacuum forming. In its simplest form, a small tabletop or lab size machine can be used to heat small cut sections of plastic sheet and stretch it over a mold using vacuum. This method is often used for sample and prototype parts. In complex and high-volume applications, very large production machines are utilized to ...

  9. Chemical bath deposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_bath_deposition

    Chemical Bath Deposition has a long history but until recently was an uncommon method of thin-film deposition. [1]In 1865, Justus Liebig published an article describing the use of Chemical Bath Deposition to silver mirrors (to affix a reflective layer of silver to the back of glass to form a mirror), [5] though in the modern day electroplating and vacuum deposition are more common.
