Well, although 3D printers can work with different types of materials nowadays because you can
00:00:04
also use the 3D printer for example with chocolate or even with some human cells, the most common
00:00:17
are plastic because they come there are a one type of plastic that can soften with the temperature
00:00:31
so this is the main reason why we are going to study something about plastic in this unit in at
00:00:41
introduction as introduction of 3d print this is more or less the the indies of this
00:00:48
lesson. So the first thing is some important definition connected with the plastic contents.
00:00:56
For example, what is a plastic? Plastic is indeed a non-natural polymer because in nature there are
00:01:05
a lot of polymers. A polymer is a macromolecule formed by the unit of several very light molecules
00:01:14
which are usually called monomers. So the main characteristic of a polymer is
00:01:24
that it is macromolecular, it has a very high molecular weight and a monomer is a
00:01:34
very light molecular weight but capable to join with itself or with another
00:01:43
light molecular to have a bigger molecule. The number of monomers are the
00:01:52
polymer ratio degree. The polymers can also interlink one with
00:02:06
this doing nets which are more we have more resistance of mechanical resistance
00:02:17
well we have different polymerization processes but mainly we can distinguish
00:02:25
two which are a condensation one and addition one in addition polymerization
00:02:36
process, a monomer can be joined to itself to result a very large and very heavy molecule,
00:02:46
as you can see in this expression.
00:03:02
So this number is the number of monomers which more or less this structure of this chemical
00:03:06
composition.
00:03:18
S can be whatever, can be for example chloride, can be methyl, can be different things.
00:03:19
But we can also have condition reaction between two different monomers which can join but
00:03:30
in this union, in this linker, they can also form another light molecule such as water
00:03:41
or more or less the same some very very light molecules and then they inform they they they
00:03:55
they don't result the polymer one example is bucket that we are going to to talk about it later
00:04:04
So the process, the polymerization process usually is thermodynamic, it can be because the energetic balance is in favor of this reaction but several times the time that you need to finish the reaction is impossible
00:04:14
because as other chemical reactions it needs to overcome a barrier of an energetic barrier
00:04:47
with some activation energy. It's Arrhenius law. So sometimes this barrier is so high they usually
00:05:00
need catalytic stations to overcome this barrier and all of these processes usually take place
00:05:10
in reactors with pressures and temperatures, some agitation and so on, to finish the reactions.
00:05:27
Main properties of plastic, as a result of its own composition, we can see that they
00:05:44
they are very ductile, they are plastic, plastic is a mechanical property, so you can give
00:05:53
the shape that you want very easily just only with force, but on the other hand the resistance,
00:06:06
the mechanical resistance is very low, so the mechanical properties are not very very
00:06:15
good but on the other on the other hand they for example are very they have a very low density
00:06:22
so they can can be used in transport and so on and they are also
00:06:37
thermical and electric insulators, so sometimes they are used as electric insulators.
00:06:45
And finally, they can not react with alkalis or actives, they are good as fuels, but on
00:06:58
either hand, as they are synthetic, they are not biodegradable.
00:07:13
So nowadays this is a problem.
00:07:22
I think everybody has known that we have a very important problem with the plastic in
00:07:25
the sea because of this.
00:07:34
So we need to change something in the composition, chemistry composition of plastic to transform
00:07:40
something that can be environmental friendly. Plastic can be classified into
00:07:48
four types which are thermoplastic that one they are formed so if you heated them
00:08:07
they can change they don't they don't the soft soft soften anything and
00:08:18
thermoplastic that can soften with temperature elastomers which can be we
00:08:28
can elastic properties and finally fevers which are very important they are
00:08:37
very large. The best example of thermoset plastic is bakelite. Bakelite is a plastic
00:08:47
that you can get by a condensation reaction between phenol and formaldehyde and you can
00:09:07
use for example to do different pieces. But you can also have different types of
00:09:25
resin. Melanin is very important as adhesive. Thermoplastic, on the other hand, can be
00:09:34
subject with temperature. Maybe the most important of them can be polyethylene
00:09:50
that can have different densities but you can also have for
00:09:59
example other important such as polypropylene. Both of them are usually
00:10:05
use as pipes but they have another important uses as you can see here the
00:10:13
most important the most the plastic that we usually use for everything is
00:10:22
polystyrene and well the main disadvantages of polystyrene is it can
00:10:28
be also toxic. But on the other hand it is very easy to give them different shapes.
00:10:37
Finally we have elastomers such as rubber. In fact the first plastic is a
00:10:48
type of rubber is from the natural rubber and it was used to do wheels but
00:11:02
well we have a different elastomer here. Plastic are very important nowadays
00:11:16
because you can give them shapes that are conforming very easily and
00:11:24
very cheap. So we have different processes for the plastic. The first is
00:11:32
pressed moulding. It is used to thermoset plastic because you can do the
00:11:39
polymerization inside of the moulding. You can see the moulding is
00:11:48
mixed with the catalysts and then you do pressures and temperatures and the part,
00:11:58
the object is polymerized inside of the molding. For a thermoplastic you
00:12:08
usually you can use for example extrusion molding as you can see in this
00:12:19
picture and the extrusion machine is very important it has as you can see a
00:12:23
different part and the fit hopper you give a grenade and at the end you have
00:12:31
the move of the polymeter. Another very important and similar is
00:12:41
is injection. In this case, you push the plastic when it is soft to mold them, so the parts,
00:12:51
the pieces are more complicated in shapes. To bottles, for example, we usually use conforming
00:13:03
by blowing, as you can see in this picture. Thermoforming is another important way that
00:13:20
that can help you to give forming to thermoplastic ones and I think the picture shows you how
00:13:34
you can do it.
00:13:47
You have a plastic and you heat it and then by pressure of doing vacuum you can get the
00:13:49
piece or the part. Calendaring is just only used to elastomer. It needs a special machine
00:14:02
and at the end you have a very large part, for example rubber or so, or neoprene.
00:14:19
Adhesives are one of the uses of plastic nowadays and it is very important because we usually use different types of adhesive instead for example welding and it is solved for today.
