In one embodiment, the thermoplastic end is composed of a PP-RCT material and is securely formed over the port by way of an over molding technique. The valve unit further includes a ball valve accommodated within the valve body and a handle for actuating the ball valve. The isolation valve unit is configured to couple to a larger polymeric pipe and to control the flow of fluids in a plumbing system via actuation of the ball valve.

A valve assembly includes a cartridge configured to be removably coupled to a valve body. The cartridge includes a hub. The valve assembly further includes a sleeve encapsulating at least a portion of the hub and having an internal sleeve surface defining an interior cavity.

Discloses is a method for manufacturing a dual cosmetic container. The method includes: molding an inner preform 40 or 40a formed with a patterned portion having one or more shapes selected from characters, pictures, figures, and helical grooves on the outer surface thereof using an upper mold 10 for the inner preform having a molding space 11 and formed with a pattern molding portion 12a on the inner circumferential surface thereof and an lower mold 14 for the inner preform having a molding space 15 for a discharge portion; inserting the inner preform 40 or 40a into a molding space 21 of an upper mold 20 for an outer preform, fixing a discharge portion 41 of the inner preform 40 or 40a to a lower mold 23 for the outer preform, feeding a liquid raw material into the molding space 21 of the upper mold 20 for the outer preform, and molding the outer preform 50 in close contact with the outer surface of the inner preform 40 or 40a formed with the patterned portion 42; and simultaneously heating the inner preform 40 or 40a and the outer preform 50 molded in close contact with each other, inserting the two heated preforms into a molding space 31 of a blow mold 30, inserting a blow tube 32 into the discharge portion 41 of the inner preform 40 or 40a, and simultaneously expanding the inner preform 40 or 40a and the outer preform 50 by blow molding to manufacture the desired dual cosmetic container in which an inner container 100 or 100a and an outer container 200 are in close contact with each other.

The invention relates to an injection molding method of manufacturing a two-wheeler frame in which a melt of a thermoplastic is injected into a cavity of an injection molding tool before a portion of the plastic melt is displaced from the cavity again by a subsequent fluid injection to form the inner hollow space of the tubular frame, with the fluid flowing upward in the course of the displacement process.

A method of forming a container from a tubular member comprises the steps of positioning a tubular member on a support structure, moving a platen of an injection molding die to engage the tubular member to form a cavity and injecting material into the cavity.

A method manufacturing a spacer for a pipe-in-pipe system includes mixing aerogel particles with a polymer to form a mixture in which the particles are dispersed in the polymer. The resulting mixture is moulded and the polymer is solidified to form the spacer or a component of the spacer, in which the dispersed, particles are suspended in a matrix of the solidified polymer.

The invention relates to a manufacturing process for a reinforced conveyor belt and product thereby obtained comprising a plurality of plastic modules wherein each module comprises at least one opening that houses a roller and is configured to rotate with respect to a shaft, which consists of a metal tube able to be filled with plastic material; and which comprises the stages of (i) inserting the shaft in an injection mold for a plastic module in the region corresponding to the opening; and (ii) a single stage of injecting the plastic module such that said injected plastic fills the inside of the shafts forming a single assembly or structure with the body of the module.

A neuromodulation catheter in accordance with a particular embodiment includes an elongate shaft and a neuromodulation element operably connected to the shaft. The shaft includes a proximal hypotube segment at its proximal end portion and a jacket disposed around at least a portion of an outer surface of the hypotube segment. The jacket may be made at least partially of a polymer blend including polyether block amide and polysiloxane. The neuromodulation element includes a distal hypotube segment and a tubular jacket disposed around at least a portion of an outer surface of the distal hypotube segment. The jacket has reduced-diameter segments spaced apart along its longitudinal axis. The neuromodulation element further includes band electrodes respectively seated in the reduced-diameter segments and respectively forming closed loops extending circumferentially around the jacket.

The present invention relates to a method of coating a pipeline field joint comprising the steps of (a) applying a layer of a coating material composition comprising (i) a propylene polymer and (ii) a substantially linear ethylene copolymer, a linear ethylene copolymer, or mixtures thereof, to the uncoated region of the field joint, preferably the coating is applied by injection molding.

Provided are a device and method for molding an FPC and a plastic part, which belongs to the field of FPC processing technology. The method for molding an FPC and a plastic part includes preprocessing a preform and connecting an FPC to the outer cylindrical surface of the preform; and forming a coating on the outer cylindrical surface of the preform by using the device for molding an FPC and a plastic part.
