As a result, the polymer will like the filler more, the filler will adhere better to the Antistatic additives are capable of modifying properties of plastics in such a way that they become antistatic, conductive, and/or improve electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding. Carbon fibers, conductive carbon powders, and other electrically conductive materials are used for this purpose. When two (organic) substrates rub against each other, electrostatic charges can build up. This is known as tribocharging.
This Another way plastics may degrade is by exposure to UV light. UV can initiate oxidation. Plastics that are used outdoors or exposed to lamps emitting UV radiation are subject to photooxidative degradation. UV stabilizers are used to prevent and retard photooxidation. Pigments and dyes may also be used in applications not requiring transparency. Photooxidative degradation starts at the exposed surface and propagates throughout the material. 9 Optical Brighteners Many polymers have a slight yellowish color.
Amorphous plastics typically have better impact strength, less mold shrinkage, and less final part warping than crystalline materials. Higher crystallinity usually leads to lower permeation rates. End-use requirements usually dictate whether an amorphous or crystalline resin is preferred. 4 Orientation When films are made from plastic polymers, the polymer molecules are randomly intertwined like a bowl of spaghetti. They are amorphous. They are coiled and twisted and have no particular alignment, unless they are crystallized during cooling or aging.
