摘要：

The melt experiences extremely high shear rates as it travels through the very small gate, in the microinjection molding process. The combination of the high shear rates, extensive viscous heating, and the large thermal gradients has a profound influence on the characteristics of the moldings. However, many of these interactions are not clearly understood. In this study, the morphology of moldings in the gate region was observed using a polarized light microscope. Moreover, the specimens from different regions of micromoldings were analyzed using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). Two materials were selected for the study: polyoxymethylene (POM) and high-density polyethylene. Three special morphological features were observed in the gate region for POM but not for polyethylene. The results obtained using the DSC were explained in light of the microstructural features observed using polarized light microscopy. POLYM. ENG. SCI., 52:787-794, 2011.
