Introduction in plastic products

Objectives: Presentation and familiarization of participants in the analysis of plastics (polymers) for quality control of parts obtained by injection processing – spectroscopy and thermal analysis. These techniques help to identify physicochemical changes in the material that can occur in the injection process and that can influence the performance/quality of the finished product.

Target audience: Quality controllers, process and quality engineers, production managers.
