...ical and mechanical properties as new PA 6, being fully equivalent to the virgin material. Opel's raw material supplier, Honeywell, is now offering a repolymerised PA 6 from post-consumer waste for the first time. This has the designation "Infinity" and is produced by a depolymerisation process. It meets the stringent requirements placed on the airbag housing, as is shown by the test results set out below. The depolymerisation process offers uniform material properties, which means t...

...the Von Mises reference stress. This makes it possible to assess the loads prevailing in the part in relation to the plotted hypotheses. Table 1 shows the values of the stress appearance for different typical stress states. A value of infinity shows that a uniform, three-axis stress state prevails: σ1=σ2=σ3≠0 (5) Under this load state, the Von Mises model gives a reference stress of zero. The material cannot therefore creep under these loads. This behaviour is not confirmed...

...eta describes the viscosity [Pa x s], gamma the shear rate [1/s], A the zero-point viscosity [Pa x s] , B [s] the so-called reciprocal transition velocity and C [-] the slope of the viscosity curve in the non-Newtonian region for gamma versus infinity. The shear viscosity of the various materials is compared with the representative shear viscosity (in the case of the experimental geometry, gammarep = 400s-1). The magnitude of the pseudoplasticity is described by parameter C, with increasing pseu...

...engineers made it possible to mount a complex welding head with a circular halogen source onto the fifth axis instead of a co-rotating housing. This and the laser beam which shines through the center are imaged at infinity via a complex, gold-coated reflector. The two radiation sources are then focused onto a single point by a shared lens. These are the new and very sophisticated features of this system,” explains Sieben. The tensioning roller needed for the laser welding technique is also locat...

...enting those personal inspirations that the coming season’s colors inspire (Title figure). In doing so, they tie onto wonderful memories and fantasies of very different people that in turn raise them to an intoxicating variety. Infinity-Nature tells adventurous tales of the African savannah, whereas Silent-Grey (Fig. 1) summons up the peaceful silence of an icy winter day, and Burning-Steel calls on that indescribable strength that the triathlon demands. Combinations of individual colors, such a...

... and is being addressed by the Mauser Group as part of its eco-cycle sustainability initiative. Thus, after the establishment of its own recycling center in Erkelenz, Germany, in February 2014, it launched a new product range called the Infinity series, a UN-approved hazardous goods packaging made from high quality recycled industrial packaging plastic, as shown in Figure 8. The Infinity plastic barrel won the "PackTheFuture" award in the "Ecodesign" category at Interpack 2014. This product appr...

...creasing filling ratio due to the limited freedom of movement in the collective. Phan-Thien et al. are convinced instead that the interaction coefficient for low values of Φ∙r increases strongly and approaches the limit of 0.03 at infinity. With fiber orientation models, good results could be achieved both for fibrous, as well as platelets additives [1–5]. However, there still is no suitable model for additive mixtures, nor have there been any systematic investigations relating to the interacti...
