How to increase the heat resistance of plastics | BGS ISD22

The good thing about thermoplastics is that they can be plastically deformed when heated. The bad thing about thermoplastics is that they can plastically deform when heated.

In his talk Professor Bonnet will answer the question "Why do different polymers show different heat resistance?" and why it can be increased by radiation crosslinking. The lecture includes a practical experiment.

The lecture will take place on September 29, 2022, from 12:00 p.m. to 12:25 p.m. Free registration is online. 

BGS Beta-Gamma-Service extends an invitation to the BGS Irradiation Service Days for the second time in a row. The 28 September is about the use of electrons and gamma rays for sterilization of medical devices. On 29 September, experts from science, research and industry will discuss new technologies and findings in plastics technology as well as the potential of radiation crosslinking.

See program and make the registration on BGS Irradiation Service Days 2022.
