Wetting Behavior of Polymer Melts on Bulk Metallic Glasses

Article Preview

Abstract:

The wetting behavior of polymer melts such as HDPE, PP, PC, POM and COC on bulk metallic glass material substrates that are used in polymer micro fabrication like micro injection molding was investigated by sessile drop method at a temperature above the corresponding melting temperatures. Contact wetting angles have been determined on three kinds of bulk metallic glasses: Pd40Cu30Ni10P20, Zr64.8Cu15.5Al8.3Ni11.4 and La57.5Al17.5Ni12.5Cu12.5. The equilibrium contact angle has the monotone decrease with the increasing temperature for most polymer melts. Two kinds of wetting behaviors are observed, spanning from 126°, over neutral wetting, to 6°, almost complete wetting. Estimations of the contact wetting angles are presented in different polymer melt temperature. Optimization of process parameter can be chosen according to the wetting ability.
