T24/0086 - Polymer processing equipment

The University decided to procure a Micro Compounder, an Injection Moulder and a Platen Press to support advanced research into novel nanocomposites-materials that combine nanoscale fillers with polymer matrices to achieve enhanced physical properties. - The Micro Compounder must be capable of processing very small quantities of polymers and additives, ideal for R&D involving expensive or rare substances; - The Injection Moulder must allow for the creation of standardised test specimens with tight control over temperature, pressure, and mould geometry; - The Platen Press must offer programmable pressure and heat settings to form composite sheets or layered samples. The machines will be used…
