사출성형은 고분자성형법 중에서 가장 광범위하게 활용되고 있다. 사출성형은 전형적인 사출성형 외에 가스사출, 물사출, 그리고 사출압축성형 등과 같이 특수한 사출성형방법들이 쓰인다. 사출압축성형은 사출과 압축공정이 합쳐진 것으로 균일한 물성 및 성형의 정밀도를 향상시키기 위하여 사용된다. 또한 사출압축은 잔류응력을 줄이는데도 효과적으로 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 성형품의 형상에 따라 다양하게 나타나는 사출압축성형의 특성에 대해서 컴퓨터 해석을 통해 분석하였다. 성형품에 벽이 있는 제품은 벽의 두께가 압축의 방향과 직각이므로 압축효과가 작게 나타났다. 사출압축성형을 일반사출성형과 비교하였을 때 수축의 균일성 및 수축량 또는 성형수축률이 작게 나타나서 정밀성형에 유리하게 나타났다. 실험계획법을 통해 실제로 제작되고 있는 렌즈에 대해서 최적 사출압축조건을 구하고 이의 결과를 사출성형의 결과와 비교분석하였다.

A finite element program is developed to analyze the flow phenomena in SMC compression molding as a viscoplastic model. The calculation of temperature distribution is also carried out by uncoupling the thermal analysis from the flow analysis. SMC molding processes with a flat plate substructure and the one with a T-shaped rib are considered in numerical simulation. The numerical results provide deformed shapes, temperature distribution in a SMC charge, and the forming load. The simulation of compression molding of a flat plate with a T-shaped rib requires a remeshing technique for the whole process.

SMC(Sheet Molding Compound), a thermoset composite material which consists of unsaturated polyester resin, fiberglass strands, fillers, and various chemical additives for curing agent, has been widely used in fabrication of structural components. The mechanical properties of molded SMS parts are strongly dependent on material flow results during compression molding process, while such flow in molds is affected by material characteristics. For numerical simulation of SMC molding process, estimation of material property of SMC must be accomplished. In this study, flow resistance of SMC was estimated through a simple compression test using a lubricant with grease oil under the constant strain rate condition at various temperatures and the result was compared with other material data available in the literature. The accuracy of the experimentally determined flow resistance was tested by finite element analyses of compression molding of SMC. Simulation results were compared with experimental results under the plane strain condition.

The compression molding of SMC (sheet molding compund) at room temperature was analyzed based on rigid-viscoplastic approach by three dimensional finite element program. The developed program was tested by solving the three dimensional compression of wedge type specimens of aluminum alloys at various processing conditions. The simulation results were compared well to the experimental results available in the literature. based on this comparison the program was proved to be valid and was further applied in solving compression molding of SMC, which is a thermosetting material reinforced with chopped fiber glass. To investigate the effects of friction conditions and mold closing speeds for compression molding of SMC charge at room temperature, compressions of the cylindrical and rectangular shaped SMC were analyzed for various friction conditions and mold closing speeds. The calculated load values were compared to the experimental results for the compression molding of cylindrical specimen.

Novel compression molding system for preform has been developed in this study. The preforms for injection blow molding and injection stretch blow molding are being manufactured by injection molding. However it contains gate mark that affects the bottom crack in the PET bottle. The compression molded preform does not contain gate mark, thus the appearance quality of bottle has been increased and the residual stress near gate(bottom of the bottle) has been reduced. The thickness distributions, haze, and transmittance are well accepted for the preform. Also, flow characteristics of the resin between a core and cavity could be analyzed through computer simulation.

Injection compression molding (ICM) is an advantageous processing method for producing thin and large polymeric parts in a robust manner. In the current study, we employed the ICM process for an energy-related application, i.e., thin and large polymeric battery case. A mold for manufacturing the battery case was fabricated using injection molding. The filling behavior of molten polymer in the mold cavity was investigated experimentally. To provide an in-depth understanding of the ICM process, ICM and normal injection molding processes were compared numerically. It was found that the ICM had a relatively low filling pressure, which resulted in reduced shrinkage and warpage of the final products. Effect of the parting line gap on the ICM characteristics, such as filling pressure, clamping force, filling time, volumetric shrinkage, and warpage, was analyzed via numerical simulation. The smaller gap in the ICM parting line led to the better dimensional stability in the finished product. The ICM sample using a 0.1 mm gap showed a 76% reduction in the dimensional deflection compared with the normal injection molded part.

A computer code was developed to simulate the filling stage of an injection/compression molding process using a finite element method. The constitutive equation was the compressible Leonov model and the PVT relationship was assumed to follow the Tait equation. The flow-induced birefringence was related to the calculated flow stresses through the linear stress-optical law. Simulations of a disk under different processing conditions, including variations of the compression stroke and compression speed, were performed to determine their effects on the flow-induced birefringence. Simulated pressure traces were also compared to those obtained in conventional injection molding and with experimental data from the literature.

In recent years, compression molding of fiber-reinforced thermoplastics has been increased in commercial aspects. During a compression molding process of composites, the flow analysis must be developed in order to accurately predict the finished part properties as a function of the molding process parameters. In this paper, a new model is presented which can be used to predict the flow under consideration of the slip of mold-composites and extensional & shear viscosity ratio M and slip parameter$\alpha$ on the mold filling parameters are discussed.

본 논문의 목적은 사출압축성형을 적용하여 13 메가 픽셀을 갖는 휴대폰 카메라용 플라스틱 비구면 렌즈를 개발하는데 있다. 사출압축성형 실험을 위하여 이동 가능한 상부 형판과 4 개의 스프링을 사용하여 금형이 제작되었다. 두께비 2를 갖는 비구면 렌즈를 대상으로 캐비티 충전 실험을 수행한 결과, 일반 사출성형에서는 웰드라인이 발생하였으나, 0.3mm의 압축스트로크가 적용된 사출압축성형에서는 웰드라인이 발생하지 않았다. 또한 미성형 실험을 통하여 얻은 충전패턴은 해석결과와 잘 일치하였다. 복굴절은 압축스트로크가 증가함에 따라 감소하였으며, 사출압축성형에서 발생한 복굴절은 일반 사출성형에 의한 값에 비하여 매우 낮고 균일한 분포를 나타냈다. 그리고 4 장의 플라스틱 렌즈로 구성된 조립체의 평균 복굴절은 장착되는 렌즈의 방향에 의하여 크게 영향을 받았다.
