Investigation of Injection Parameters on Mechanical Properties of Injection Molded ABS
Faculty Sponsor
J. McCall, Gonzaga University
Research Project Abstract
Tensile test specimens were injection molded under a range of conditions. The effect of gate location, injection pressure and temperature were studied. The results correlate well with industry expectations. The purpose of the investigation was to determine the ultimate tensile strength of injection molded ABS with varying gate locations.
