Flexible resin transfer molding

FeO ferrous oxide (iron oxide) FRTM flexible resin transfer molding... 

Polybutadiene-type resins n. Unsaturated, thermosetting hydrocarbons cured by a peroxide-catalyzed, vinyl-type polymerization reaction, or by sodium-catalyzed polymerization of butadiene or blends of butadiene and styrene. Liquid systems, curable in the presence of monomers, are used for casting, encapsulation, and potting of electrical components, and in making laminates. Molding compounds, often containing fillers and modified with other resins or rubbers, may be compression or transfer molded. Syndiotactic 1,2-butadiene, introduced in 1974 in Japan, is thermoplastic, with semicrystalline nature, with good transparency and flexibility without plasticization. In the presence of a photosensitizer such as p,p -tetramethyl... 

In the rubber industry, polyglycols are used as components of clay-containing rubber formulations to control cure rates. Folyglycols are added to thermoplastics to isprove flexibility as well as to impart antistatic properties to in rova the processing of plastic pellets or resins. Hot baths of polyglycols also act as heat transfer fluids in plastic thermoforming. Polyglycols are used as lubricants to facilitate removal of vulcanized products from molds.
