There are two processes used to convert polymer resin pellets to a connector housing, compression/transfer molding and injection molding. Before discussing those processes, however, another method of polymerizing the starting resin must be mentioned for completeness, condensation polymerization. Recall that addition polymerization occurs by the addition of individual mers to existing polymer chains under the Read the original post Polymer Processing on inter-connection components blog.
The majority of connector housings are manufactured from thermoplastic polymers due to their combination of electrical and mechanical properties and the manufacturing efficiencies of injection molding. This section will provide an overview...

Scientists from Luxemberg Institute of Science and Technology have developed new “superlattices” that might help build next generation of high energy density capacitors as small as one-hundredth the size of conventional ones. Since capacitor energy density is somewhat low, they are difficult to miniaturize. Antiferroelectric dielectric materials could help solve this problem. Like magnets, which Read the original post Researchers Believe that Antiferroelectric Superlattice...
