Analytical techniques for plastics

Objectives: Presentation and familiarization of the participants with plastic analysis techniques (polymers) for the quality control of parts obtained by injection-processing - spectroscopy and thermal analysis. These techniques help identify physical-chemical changes in the material that can occur during the injection process and can influence the performance / quality of the finished product.

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