In plastics processing, dip molding is a process of shaping of plastics by moulding. The coating of components with PVC has many applications. Plastic dip moulding is a technique where metal parts are coated with a plastic vinyl material. [1] [2] It is used to protect and make the metal parts more resistant to scratches and abrasions. [3]
The main applications are the gloves, balloons, bellows...
Plastisol is the most used material for dip moulding because it is easy to use and affordable. Other materials are used, such as latex, leneoprene, polyurethanes, silicones and even epoxy.
The plastic can be heated or not according to their physical state at room temperature. In the case of a powder, the plastic is fluidized.
The following steps constitute the dip moulding process:
The part may need to be submerged several times to give the desired thickness.
To control the thickness of the workpiece, it is important to control the following settings:
Dip moulding presents advantages and disadvantages. [4]
