Gracious Living Innovations Inc.

$250,499.00

Process development of foamed plastic extrusions

FY 2019-20 · 2019-05-01

Summary
GLI plans to develop technology to allow us to improve and expand our current foamed polystyrene (PS) process through new die technology, materials, processing parameters and finishing techniques. The basis of the project will be to create a cellular structure with much smaller, and more uniform cell sizes as well as higher cell densities (number of the cells) for our foamed extruded profiles while improving the surface finish and/or mechanical properties of the profiles.

Description (French)
GLI prévoit développer une technologie, qui nous permettra d'améliorer et d'étendre notre procédé actuel de polystyrène mousse au moyen de nouvelles technologies de matrices, de nouveaux matériaux, de nouveaux paramètres de traitement et de nouvelles techniques de finition. La base du projet sera de créer une structure cellulaire avec des tailles de cellules beaucoup plus petites et plus uniformes ainsi que des densités de cellules plus élevées (nombre de cellules) pour nos profilés extrudés en mousse tout en améliorant la finition de surface et / ou les propriétés mécaniques des profils.
