报告摘要：
This presentation will cover recent developments and innovations in controlling the microstructure and mechanical properties of microcellular injection molded polymer foams. By employing either gas-laden pellet technology or microcellular injection molding to produce a unique microstructure and morphology in polymer blends, the tensile ductility and toughness of the injection molded plastic parts can be significantly improved. In another approach, core retraction was used with the micro cellular injection molding process to overcome the restriction of density reduction and foam thick injection molded plastic parts with high density reductions of more than 50% with a well-controlled microcellular structure, uniform density, and improved mechanical properties.
报告人简历：
Professor Lih-Sheng (Tom) Turng received his B.S. degree from the Taiwan University, and his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees from Cornell University. He worked in industry for 10 years before joining the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 2000. He has been working in the area of injection molding and microcellular injection molding, and has extended his research into nanocomposites, bio-based polymers, tissue engineering scaffolds, and digital design and manufacturing. Professor Turng is the Co-Director of the Polymer Engineering Center at UW-Madison, a Fellow member of the Society of Plastics Engineers (SPE) and the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). He has published nearly 300 peer-reviewed technical papers since joining UW-Madison in 2000 and has authored or edited many books, book chapters, patents, conference proceedings, and special issue journals. Professor Turng has recently been selected to lead an interdisciplinary tissue engineering theme at the Wisconsin Institute for Discovery (WID). He is also the UW-Madison Principal Investigator for the Department of Defense (DOD) Digital Manufacturing and Design Innovation (DMDI) project, one of the President Obama’s National Network for Manufacturing Innovation (NNMI) Institutes.
