- Some ‘recycled’ product claims are mostly garbage In 2015, recycling is sorted at the Sims Municipal Recycling Facility in New York City. Spencer Platt/Getty ImagesRecent laws encourage recycling old plastic into new products. But verifying recycled content relies on tricky math. The post Some ‘recycled’ product claims are mostly garbage appeared first on Popular Science....
- Fire, Vol. 6, Pages 125: A Review of Combustion and Flame Spread over Thermoplas... As thermoplastic materials are widely used in buildings, the fire hazards of thermoplastic materials are increasingly becoming a central issue in fire safety research due to their unique pyrolysis and melting mechanisms. In this paper, the features and common types of thermoplastic materials are introduced first. Then, the combustion behavior...
- Net Zero Goals: Cintas Transitions Facilities To LED Lighting LED lighting retrofits, along with other facility-related energy-reduction projects, are part of the company’s ambition to achieve Net Zero GHG emissions by 2050.

- Laser Welding Explained Laser welding uses a high-precision laser beam to fuse metals and thermoplastics. The accuracy and precision of the process produces low thermal distortion, making it perfect for welding sensitive materials. […] The post Laser Welding Explained appeared first on Fractory....
- Welding – 12 Types Explained Welding is a fabrication process that joins two or more metals using heat, pressure, or both to form a strong, permanent bond. Weldable materials generally include metals and thermoplastics, but […] The post Welding – 12 Types Explained appeared first on Fractory....
- A New Era for Additive Manufacturing Durability In the early days of 3D Printing, fragile parts that could only be used for prototyping was the norm. Now, in 2022, the emphasis from material developers has shifted to resins and thermoplastics focused of making strong parts, capable of being used in actual real-world applications. In many situations, new...
