PCTFE plastic is available in products that conform to ASTM 1430-89 Type 1 (Grades 1 and 2) and is suitable for processing into parts that meet MIL-P 46036 (Federal Specification LP-385C was canceled 1988). Standards for fabricated forms are available for compression molded heavy sections (AMS-3645 Class C), thin-walled tubing, rod, sheet, and molded shapes (AMS-3650). PCTFE plastics have been approved for use in contact with food by the FDA (55).

Mixes were compression molded to form 2-mm thick sheets at a pressure of 10 MPa at 120°C for 20 min. 

TS plastic products that are injection, transfer, or compression molded combine thick and thin sections relatively easily since the hardening process is a chemical reaction (Chapter 6). Annular shapes are best made by compression to gain best dimensional control and freedom from distortion. In the compression process, the molding compound is compressed and reduced to the plastic state in the mold. During this process, portions of the material may lie in hard forms in the mold while other portions are flowing rapidly with great force.

In disc form, when prepared by compression molding, the more hydrophobic polymers, PCPP and PCPP-SA, 85 15, displayed constant erosion kinetics over 8 months. By extrapolation, 1-mm-thick discs of PCPP will completely degrade in over 3 years. The degradation rates were increased by copolymerization with sebacic acid. An increase of 800 times was observed when the sebacic acid concentration reached 80%. By altering the CPP-SA ratio, nearly any degradation rate between 1 day and 3 years can be achieved (4). 

After synthesis, the modified carborane-siloxane gums were fabricated into shaped components using standard siloxane vulcanization and fabrication technology. Di-chlorobenzyl peroxide (1% by wt) was used as the cross-linking agent and mixed into the polymer formed in scheme 7. Shaped rubber components were readily prepared by compression molding operations at 70°C. Postcure operations were typically at 120°C for 24 hours. 

The isosorbide polyurethane based on the aliphatic diisocyanate P(I-HMDI) is flexible. It is a thermoplastic with a glass transition temperature of 110°C and softening temperature of 190°C. Both transitions are well below its degradation onset which occurs at approximately 260°C. It forms good films by evaporation from its solutions and colorless transparent compression moldings. 

The isosorbide polyurethanes based on the aromatic diisocyanates P(I-TDI) and P(I-MDI), possess more rigid structures with both polymers forming brittle films and brittle compression moldings. Their glass transition temneratures are above their decomposition temperature of 260°C. The thermostability of isosorbide polyurethanes correspond to that of conventional polyurethanes with similar structure based on 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol for which degradation temperature of 260°C has been determined. 

An important step in the manufacture of any plastic product is the fabrication or the shaping of the article. Most polymers used as plastics when manufactured are prepared in pellet form as they are expelled from the reactor. These are small pieces of material a couple of millimeters in size. This resin can then be heated and shaped by one of several methods. Thermoset materials are usually compression molded, cast, or laminated. Thermoplastic resins can be injection molded, extruded, or blow molded most commonly, with vacuum forming and calendering also used but to a lesser extent.
