Introduction
Plastic
Any of wide range of syhthetic or semi-synthetic organics solids that are malleable
Organic polymer of high molecular mass – contain another substances
Synthetic, most commanly derived from petrochemicals
Used in an enormous and expanding range of product
Etymology : - Derive from Greek ‘plastikos’ means
capable of being shaped or molded. Contain organic polymers.
Plastic Classes
Thermoplastics Elastomer Structual
Electrically Conductive Biodegradable Thermoset
Thermoplastics
Thermosoftening plastics is a plastic material Typically a polymer High molecular weight May be reshaped by heating
Product Selection & Usage
Product Selection
Detergent Bottle
High-density polythylene (HDPE) And Usage
Also known as Polythylene High Density (PHDE)
Polythylene Thermoplastics Made from petroleum Can be recycled Used in production of a plastic
bottles,corrosion-resistant piping,geomembranes and plastic lumber

Density
Volumetric mass density Mass per unit volume Quantity specifically called specific weight Density of material varies with temperature
and pressure. Density(D) / Range from 0.93 to 0.97g/cm³ or 970Kg/m³
Length
Geometric measurement Longest dimension of an project SI units : metre (m)
Melting Point
Temperature at which a solid turns to liquid
HDPE : (i) temperature : 120 c ( for short period) , 110 c (continiously)
Dimension
Min no of coordinates Have a line has a dimension of one because
only one coordinate is needed to specify a point
Mechanical Properties
Modulus Young
Elasticity
Hardness
Modulus Young Tensile or elastic modulus Measure of the stiffness of an elastic
material and is a quantity used to characterize materials.
Most common elastic modulus Tensile Strength MPa (psi) : 17.3 -44.8
(2500-6500) Tensile Modulus MPa (10³ psi) : 620 - 1089
Elasticity Tendency of solid materials to return to their
original shape after being deformed Solid objects will deform when forces are
applied on them If material is a elastic, object will return to
initial shape when these forces are removed.
Hardness
Measure of how to resistant solid matter is to various kinds of permanent shape change when comprehensive force is applied
Depends on ductility, elastic stiffness, plasticity, strain, stress, toughness, viscoelasticity and viscocity.
Different between HDPE & LDPE
HDPE is flexible and more rigid from LDPE.
HDPE is semi-translucent depending on density while LDPE is translucent with high impact strength.
