Introduction to Plastic Materials
Plastic materials
Learning about plastic materials can be intimidating. Even with the best of intentions, it is hard to teach yourself. There are many good books available but they go into too much detail so you can’t see the wood for the trees. Also, they tend to teach tedious theories with plenty of mathematics thrown in. Well, the good news is that there is a better way. By distilling the basics down into a one hour lecture, it is possible to learn everything you need to get started with plastics. In my career, I have often had the pleasure and challenge of teaching people about plastic materials so that they could get a fast start in their new job. That experience has allowed me to build a set of tools, stories and metaphors that will explain plastics in a simple and fun way. I can promise you there will be no mathematics whatsoever and no theories that make your head spin. You will learn just what you need to know to succeed in your job.
