Microcellular Plastics (MCP) is definedas the plastic that has a large number ofsmall bubbles, typically less than 30microns.
What is a Microcellular Plastic?
MuCell Technology: Simultaneousnucleation of an extremely largenumber of cells.
![Page 7: s Contributions in LMP Manufacturing Process Research · 2013. 10. 30. · Hopper with Pellets Gas/Polymer Solution Formation System Polymer Processing System Heaters Barrel Two-Stage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060519/604d0974eb01ef1a9540602a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
(1) Rapid dissolution of gas into molten,flowing polymer to form a solution,
(2) Nucleation of a large number of cells,(3) Control of the cell size, and(4) Control of the geometry of the final
product.
