Polymer Processing Techniques Overview by Shalini Virdi is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Polymers are large molecules made of repeating monomer units that can be classified as thermoplastics or thermosets based on their reaction to heat. Common polymer processing techniques include injection molding, blow molding, and calendering. Injection molding uses melted thermoplastic that is injected into a mold under pressure and cooled. Blow molding uses a heated thermoplastic tube that is placed in a mold and inflated with air before cooling. Calendering produces continuous films and sheets by feeding
