Polymer Specimens. The materials used in this work were polyimide (PI),polyamide-imide (PAl), polyether-ether-ketone (PEEK), polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) and polyether sulphone (PES). The chemical formulas and physical properties of the specimen polymers are summarized in Table I. The specimen polymers, except PPS, were unfilled while the PPS specimen was filled with glass fiber of Uo wt. %. PAI and PES are amorphous polymer with considerably high glass temperature. The polymers, except PI, can flow at hi temperatures and allow the use of injection molding. 

Petra 140 (Allied Signal) is a 40 percent glass-reinforced polyethylene tereph-thalate from recycled soda bottles. It has a tensile strength of 26,000 psi and a heat-deflection temperature of 225°C at 264 psi. PC23MS-200 (MCR Polymers) contains at least 25 percent recyclate from personal computer compact disks and polyethylene terephthalate beverage bottles. DMDA-1343NT polyethylene (Union Carbide) contains 28 percent color-sorted recyclate and has physical properties similar to those of virgin stock. Encore resins (Hoechst Celanese) are a family of plastics based on 100 percent reclaimed thermoplastics such as acetal, polyester, polyphenylene sulfide, nylon 6/6, and liquid crystal polymer. 

Between 1967 and 1973, workers at Phillips refined the new polymerization process, defined physical properties, constructed and operated a pilot plant, established market demand for such a material and designed and constructed a full-scale commercial plant. In late 1972 the world s first polyphenylene sulfide plant came on stream in the Phillips Petroleum Company facility in Borger, Texas. The original plant had a nameplate capacity of 5 MM pounds per year. Subsequently, it has been enlarged and debottlenecked to its present capacity of 12 MM pounds per year. This material is sold under the tradename Ryton Polyphenylene Sulfide.

In another example,1 1 a problem with poor physical properties of molded fluoroplastics was overcome. Transfer molded material was found to have low modulus of elasticity above 150°C and prone to irreversible cold flow. The solution involved embedding a metal or plastic insert as a core material in the mold. The choice of the core material depended on the end use performance requirements. An engineering plastic core was found preferable examples included polyetherether ketone (PEEK), polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), and polyether imide (PEI). Polytetrafluoroethylene bearers were placed in the mold to keep the core material away from the walls of the mold. No special cavity modifications were required. Any hot-melt fluoroplastic could be molded surrounding the insert examples include PVDF, FEP, ETFE, PFA, ECTFE, and PCTFE.
