Hot embossing of polypropylene micro-tubes into functional tubular components with controlled inner-pore sizes

Abstract: To meet ever-increasing demands on the micro-components for medical and non-medical applications, a new micro-shaping technology - “hot embossing of micro-tubes”, had been developed for the forming of polymeric tubular micro-components. The paper presents the results from the forming of Polypropylene(PP) micro-tubes with outer diameters of 1.3mm and inner diameters 0.6mm, to achieve various reduced inner-features. The study was effected by combining experiment, numerical simulation and SEM analysis. FE simulat… Show more
