- 60. 2.008x In other words… § Polymers shrink during cooling; that’s a fact. § If the shrinkage is constrained by the mold, residual stresses are ‘trapped’ because the part cannot relax as the polymer shrinks. § During injection molding, the variation in shrinkage both globally and through the cross section of a part creates internal stresses or residual stresses that act on a part with effects similar to externally applied stresses. § These residual stress can cause the part to will warp upon ejection from the mold or crack when loaded during use.
