SUMMARY

Polymer melts refer to thermoplastic polymers that have been heated to a point where they flow, allowing for various applications in manufacturing and processing. This discussion emphasizes the need for clear and accessible resources on polymer melts, as existing scholarly documents tend to be overly complex. Understanding polymer melts is crucial for industries that utilize thermoplastics in their production processes.

PREREQUISITES
  • Basic understanding of thermoplastic polymers
  • Familiarity with polymer processing techniques
  • Knowledge of heat transfer principles
  • Awareness of material properties related to melting points
NEXT STEPS
  • Research thermoplastic polymer types and their melting behaviors
  • Explore polymer processing methods such as injection molding
  • Learn about the thermal properties of polymers
  • Investigate resources on polymer science for clearer explanations
USEFUL FOR

Manufacturers, materials scientists, and students studying polymer science who seek to understand the practical applications and properties of polymer melts.

Hi

i wanted to know what are polymer melts. Googling did not help.
just had to read this theses which has me pulling my hair over this

any help/info/links would be appreciated
 
Chemistry news on Phys.org
Plus what is available in the form of "scholarly documents' on the net is too dense and verbose...
 
Heat a thermoplastic polymer until it flows. Label it "Polymer Melt".

Move on...
 
thanks.
 
I came.across a headline and read some of the article, so I was curious. Scientists discover that gold is a 'reactive metal' by accidentally creating a new material in the lab https://www.earth.com/news/discovery-that-gold-is-reactive-metal-by-creating-gold-hydride-in-lab-experiment/ From SLAC - A SLAC team unexpectedly formed gold hydride in an experiment that could pave the way for studying materials under extreme conditions like those found inside certain planets and stars undergoing...
