Engineering Guides

Post by Proto »

Working in the plastics industry you pick up some things. And I thought I would share some of the knowledge.

The first 2 I would like to share, and both are FREE

Minor Rubber: Engineering Guide to Elastomers - http://www.minorrubber.com/Files/Docume ... 0Guide.pdf
Minor Rubber: Elastomer Compatiblitiy Guide - http://www.minorrubber.com/Files/Docume ... rsions.pdf

The Engineering Guide to Elastomers is best viewed in a 2 page format. Simply because all of the tables in the back of the book are 2 pages wide.

I realize that most of you wont need this sort of Information on Elastomeric Rubbers. But I find it interesting to see what rubber is compatible with certain chemicals

More to Come as I find them

Ok, Here is one a bit more in line

Curbell Plastics Engineering Materials Guide - http://www.curbellplastics.com/technica ... urbell.pdf

It has a short overview of each plastic type. But the interesting stuff is in the back. Comparative charts showing the properties of each plastic type, and chemical resistances.


I know I have more in depth printed guides. I would like to find their online counterparts, but if all else fails I could be convinced to get them scanned.
