Post-Processing Time Dependence of Shrinkage and Mechanical Properties of Injection-Molded Polypropylene

Dimensions of the injection-molded semi-crystalline materials (polymeric products) decrease with the time that elapses from their formation. The post-molding shrinkage is an effect of secondary crystallization; the increase in the degree of polymer crystallinity leads to an increase in stiffness and...
