Metal preformed

Parts made from these materials are formed from sheet metal, or soHd, three-dimensional metal preforms (139). Complex housings, bezels, and equipment covers are typical of the former. AppHcations involving soHd shapes include gears, pulleys, flywheels, and similar parts.

Injection Molding. Matched metal molds are used in the fabrication of plastic closures, specialty packages, and botde preforms. In conventional injection mol ding the plastic resin is melted in an extmder which forces a measured quantity or shot into a precision-machined chilled mold after which the nozzle of the extmder is withdrawn. 

Preformed Two-Piece Metal Containers. Ink vehicles for letterset printing of two-piece aluminum or steel containers are mainly based on special polyester vehicles used in conjunction with melamine cross-linkers. Short cycle ovens which dry inks in 1—5 seconds are now used and operate at temperatures as high as 350 °C. The rheology of these inks must be adjusted to the unique geometry of the press. Desired rheological properties are achieved by the use of additives as weU as extender pigments. 

Alternatively, tows of fibers can be passed through a Hquid metal bath, where the individual fibers are wet by the molten metal, wiped of excess metal, and a composite wine is produced. A bundle of such wines can be consoHdated by extmsion to make a composite. Another pressureless Hquid metal infiltration process of making MMCs is the Prim ex process (Lanxide), which can be used with certain reactive metal alloys such as Al—Mg to iafiltrate ceramic preforms. For an Al—Mg alloy, the process takes place between 750—1000°C ia a nitrogen-rich atmosphere (2). Typical infiltration rates are less than 25 cm/h. 

Acid Dyes. These water-soluble anionic dyes ate appHed to nylon, wool, sUk, and modified acryHcs. They ate also used to some extent for paper, leather, food, and cosmetics. The original members of this class aU had one or mote sulfonic or catboxyHc acid groups in thein molecules. This characteristic probably gave the class its name. Chemically, the acid dyes consist of azo (including preformed metal complexes), anthraquiaone, and ttiaryHnethane compounds with a few azHie, xanthene, ketone imine, nitro, nitroso, and quHiophthalone compounds.

MIR), requires the introduction of new x-ray scatterers into the unit cell of the crystal. These additions should be heavy atoms (so that they make a significant contribution to the diffraction pattern) there should not be too many of them (so that their positions can be located) and they should not change the structure of the molecule or of the crystal cell—in other words, the crystals should be isomorphous. In practice, isomorphous replacement is usually done by diffusing different heavy-metal complexes into the channels of preformed protein crystals. With luck the protein molecules expose side chains in these solvent channels, such as SH groups, that are able to bind heavy metals. It is also possible to replace endogenous light metals in metal-loproteins with heavier ones, e.g., zinc by mercury or calcium by samarium. 

For mass production purposes matched metal moulding techniques are employed. Here the preform or mat is placed in a heated mould and the resin poured on. The press is closed and light pressure ( 501bf/in ) applied. Curing schedules are usually about three minutes at 120°C. It is possible to produce laminates using less resin with pressure moulding than with hand lay-up techniques and this results in better mechanical properties.
