Blow Moulding is a manufacturing process used to produce hollow plastic parts by inflating a heated plastic tube until it takes the shape of a Mould cavity. This method is particularly effective for creating products with consistent wall thickness and complex shapes. Developed in the mid-20th century, blow Moulding has become an integral part of many industries, including automotive, packaging, and agriculture. In agriculture, the process has seen significant advancements and is used for making various products, such as containers for pesticides, irrigation equipment, and even large tanks. This blog will explore the blow Moulding technique, its current practices, applications in agriculture, and future perspectives. Blow Moulding Technique: Process and Variants The blow Moulding process involves several steps: 1. Parison Formation: A plastic tube, called a parison, is extruded. The parison is then pl...
Polymeric materials consist of molecules of higher molecular weight, varying from 10 3 to 10 7 . All polymer have recurring structural molecular units that comprises large molecules. Four major industries 1. Plastic 2. Fibre 3. Rubber and 4. Paint and Varnish. Naturally occurring polymers are a) Cellulose b) Lignin C) Proteins and d) Resins and rubbers. On account of their inherent advantage in properties and versatility in adaptation and use, Plastic have come to play vital role in variety of application in world over Plastics are used in making essential consumers goods of daily use for common man such as Basket, water bottle, tiffin box, toothbrushes. They also find application in field like agriculture, automobile, transportation, engineering, electronics, defense, medicine and building construction. Plastic is growing impo...
