While plastic manufacturing combines the possibility of mass production and wide design variability, there are still opportunities within the plastic engineering field which have not been fully adopted in the medical industry. In addition, there are numerous additional challenges related to the development of products for this industry, such as ensuring tolerance to disinfection, biocompatibility, selecting compliant additives for processing, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book enables product designers, polymer processing engineers, and manufacturing engineers to take advantage of the numerous upcoming developments in medical plastics, such as autoregulated volume-correction to achieve zero defect production or the development of 'intelligent' single use plastic products, and methods for sterile manufacturing which reduce the need for subsequent sterilization processes. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFinally, as medical devices get smaller, the book discusses the challenges posed by miniaturization for injection molders, how to respond to these challenges, and the rapidly advancing prototyping technologies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Markus Schönberger,Marc Hoffstetter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0323370233\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780323370233\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e William Andrew\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/19\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 302\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.00w x 0.80d","brand":"Markus Schönberger","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48013730349311,"sku":"9780323370233","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4383a1c5-ecb1-4c5d-9443-61527408be83.jpg?v=1767744411","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/emerging-trends-in-medical-plastic-markus-schzinberger-9780323370233","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
