What Is Urea Formaldehyde Resin Injection Molding?
Urea Formaldehyde (Uf) Resin Injection Molding is a specialized thermoset manufacturing process that uses a resin blend of urea and formaldehyde. Im Gegensatz zu Thermoplastik, UF resin cures permanently under heat and pressure, forming rigid, dimensionally stable parts. Es fällt unter die breitere Kategorie vonamino-plastic injection, known for its balance of affordability and performance.
Key defining traits of this process:
- Thermoset Nature: Einmal geheilt, UF parts cannot be melted or reshaped, ensuring long-term stability in harsh conditions.
- Core Applications: Dominant in sectors requiring electrical insulation and cost-efficiency, such as electronics and household goods.
- Material Vielseitigkeit: Blends with fillers (Z.B., alpha-cellulose, glass fibers) to enhance strength or reduce costs.
Below is a breakdown of core terms to clarifyUF definition molding:
| Begriff | Beschreibung |
|---|---|
| UF Resin Molding | The overall process of shaping urea formaldehyde resin into parts via injection. |
| Thermoset UF Process | The curing-driven cycle where UF resin hardens permanently under heat/pressure. |
| Urea Resin Injection | The step of forcing molten UF compound into a mold cavity at high pressure. |
| UF Plastic Molding | A casual term for UF resin injection molding, emphasizing the plastic-like final part. |

The Urea Formaldehyde Injection Molding Process
DerUF injection cycle is a streamlined sequence of steps that leverages heat and pressure to transform raw UF compound into finished parts. Unlike melamine-formaldehyde processes, UF molding prioritizes speed and cost-efficiency, making it ideal for high-volume applications.
Schritt-für-Schritt-Prozessaufschlüsselung
- Materialvorbereitung: Mischung urea formaldehyde resin (granular or powder) with fillers (Z.B., alpha-cellulose filled UF) and pigments (for pigmentable urea resin) to create a homogeneous compound.
- Injektion: Feed the compound into a heated barrel, then inject it into a mold at high pressure (1500-2800 Bar) und Temperatur (160-190° C).
- Heilung: Hold the mold closed to allow urea formaldehyde curing—typically 20-60 Sekunden (cure time UF) at 170-185°C (UF mold temperature).
- Degasieren: Verwenden Sie a degassing urea mold system to remove trapped air, preventing bubbles in parts like electrical housings.
- Entformen: Eject the cured part. Für komplexe Designs (Z.B., snap-fit connectors), Wir verwenden BMC-UF compression-injection hybrid technology to improve mold filling.
- Nachbearbeitung: Optional post-cure urea (120° C für 30 Minuten) to enhance hardness, or secondary ops like drilling or printing.
Key Thermoset Injection Parameters for UF
| Parameter | Typische Reichweite | Auswirkungen auf die Teilqualität |
|---|---|---|
| UF Mold Temperature | 160-190° C | Higher temps speed curing; lower temps reduce shrinkage |
| Clamp Pressure UF | 1500-2800 Bar | Ensures full mold filling (critical for tight tolerances) |
| Cure Time UF | 20-60 Sekunden | Shorter times boost output; longer times improve strength |
| Einspritzgeschwindigkeit | 50-100 mm/s | Faster speeds reduce cycle time; slower speeds prevent flash |
