The modelling of processing conditions for polypropylene-nanoclay integral hinges at high heat exposure

This research is about generating models of injection moulding processing conditions, towards quality performance of polypropylene-nanoclay integral hinges, exposed to high heat temperature. The assessment of hinges’ quality performance analyses was translated as the signal to noise ratio values for...
