White Paper: Selecting the Right Thermoplastic Material for Injection Molding

Engineers know that when it comes to picking a material for any application, analyses of the loads, stresses, strains and environments are key.


Engineers know that when it comes to picking a material for any application, analyses of the loads, stresses, strains and environments are key. This is particularly true when safety, reliability and effectiveness are required.

Unfortunately, material selection is often a guessing game. This white paper breaks down many of the important variables it’s necessary to consider when picking the right injection molding material for your application.

In this eight-page white paper, you will learn:

  • The physical properties crucial to a material’s performance
  • The relationship between physical properties and the surrounding environment
  • The most common causes of field failure in plastic parts
  • A guide for quickly picking a material
