For the material selection process to be successful, it should be intimately involved during part design and in selecting the manufacturing process, processing conditions, and post assembly procedures, as well as during mold design. Of course, it is important...

Material selection, part design, deficient tooling, environmental conditions, and user abuse will accelerate part failure even though a manufacturing deficiency may be the primary cause. Specifically, the rate of failure will increase exponentially for a part molded with wet material...
