[design-engine]

Anyone have any experiance in bio-degradable plastics? The corn
based materials we are looking at have a high shrinkage rate and cause
our moulder to create a new mould. comments?
Websites? more info?

Hi.


Check this Site for PSM MAterial.Recently I attended a training where I came accross this material.I Dont know abt the material property but from the training I understand that it can be used for molding purpose.As far as my understanding goes it is not included in the moldflow material list.
