Abstract

We use so many plastic products in everyday. Because polymer materials have a lot of merits including low cost and easiness of forming, they are widely used in many manufacturing industries. Microcellular foaming process was developed at MIT in 1980's to save a quantity of materials and increase mechanical properties. The improvement of strength is very important factor in relation with the reduction of mass. So the first purpose of this research is to improve the strength of the microcellular foamed plastics as variation of glass-fiber's volume friction. Also the characteristic of filler such as glass-fiber was presented in a microcellular foaming process.
