4、hMuCell_ Technology ABSTRACT: In this study two molds were designed and used in MuCell_technology to generate implants with a porous structure. To arrive the desiredpore structure many process parameters were investigated for indicating theeffects of process parameters on the pore morphology.
5、This process parameterinvestigation was performed on each mold respectively, so that the influencesof the mold design on the pore morphology have been researched by the sameprocess parameter setting. It was found that the mold design also had effectson the pore structure in MuCell_ technology. A pro

KEY WORDS: mold design, cell morphology, MuCell_, injection molding,medical implant, porous polymer, polyurethane. INTRODUCTION MuCell technology, as an effective microcellular injection
7、 moldingprocess, is widely used in automobile and furniture industries.In most cases, MuCell_ technology is used to save raw materials, but itis also used to produce implants with closed porous structure 1. It usesCO2 as blowing agent, which is injected in the plasticization section ofthe injection
8、molding machine (Figure 1). The blowing agent is injectedinto the polymer melt through the gas supply line and injector, in itssuper critical state, by the plasticization phase of the injection moldingmachine. After the plasticization the mixture of polymer melt and gas isinjected through the nozzle
9、 into the mold, where the foam structure canbe generated due to the quick pressure drop in the mold. The mainproducts which are produced today with MuCell_ technology have closedcellular foam 24. The MuCell Microcellular Foam injection molding technology is a complete process and equipment technolog

11、ses of less than 3mm.The MuCell Process generally offers a 50-75% improvement in key quality measures, such as flatness, roundness, and warpage, also eliminating all sink marks. These improvements result from the fact that relatively uniform stress patterns are created in the molded part rather than
12、 non uniform stress characteristic of solid molding.As a direct result of the uniform stress and shrinkage associated with the MuCell Process (which occurs because the pack and hold phase of the molding cycle is eliminated), the parts that are produced tend to comply far more closely with the mold s
13、hape and, presumably, the dimensional specifications of the part itself. This means that when using the MuCell Process, fewer mold iterations are needed to produce a compliant part, saving time and cost.The quality advantages of the MuCell Process are complemented by certain direct economic advantag
14、es, including the ability to produce 20-33% more parts per hour on a given molded machine, and the ability to mold parts on lower tonnage machines as a result of the viscosity reduction and the elimination of the packing requirement that accompanies the use of supercritical gas.

16、ell Injection Molding Process involves the highly controlled use of gas in its supercritical state (SCF) to created millions of micron-sized voids in thin wall molded parts (less than 3mm). With the correct equipment configuration, mold design, and processing conditions these microcellular voi
17、ds are relatively uniform in size and distribution.The voids are created or nucleated as a result of homogeneous nucleation that occurs when a single-phase solution of polymer and gas (commonly nitrogen, but occasionally carbon dioxide) passes through the injection gate into the mold.The single-phas
18、e solution is created through the operation of a conventional injection molding machine which has been modified to allow the creation of a single-phase solution. The key modifications to the system involve the use of a precision SCF delivery system to deliver SCF to special injectors based on
19、mass flow metering principles. The SCF is then injected into the barrel where it is mixed with the polymer via a specially designed screw. A shut off nozzle maintains the single phase solution while the injection molding screw maintains sufficient back pressure at all times to prevent pr

Unlike chemical foaming agents, the physical MuCell process has no temperature limitation and does not leave any chemical residue in the polymer; making consumer products perfectly suitable for recycling within the original polymer classification and allowing re-grind material to reenter the process flow. The numerous cost and processing advantages have led to rapid global deployment of the MuCell process primarily in automotive, consumer electronics, medical device, packaging
