  Hydrogen Technology – An Emerging Technology in Mechanical Engineering Introduction Hydrogen technology is an emerging technology that can play an important role in the future of transportation, power generation, and industries. Hydrogen is a very light gas. It can be used as a fuel to produce energy. When hydrogen is used in a fuel cell, the main by-product is water , making it an attractive clean-energy option. 🔹 What is Hydrogen Technology? Hydrogen technology means the technologies used to: Produce → Store → Transport → Use hydrogen Simple flow: Water / Natural Gas / Renewable Energy → Hydrogen Production → Storage → Transportation → Application 🔹 How is Hydrogen Produced? There are several methods of producing hydrogen. 1. Electrolysis In electrolysis, electricity is used to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. Water + Electricity → Hydrogen + Oxygen When renewable electricity such as solar or wind power is used, the hydrogen is commonly called Green Hydrogen . 2. Stea...

Common Plastics for Injection Moulding(GL)

Common Plastics for Injection Moulding There are over 90,000 types of plastic injection moulding feed materials , presenting a vast array of options that can make it challenging to identify the ideal one for a specific application. Injection moulding service providers frequently encounter issues when clients select incompatible plastic materials, often needing to suggest more suitable alternatives. Choosing the right resin is crucial for achieving cost-effectiveness, high material efficiency, optimal product performance, and compatibility with mass production requirements. These tens of thousands of plastics can be categorised into approximately 45 polymer families . More broadly, they’re typically divided into two major categories: thermoplastic and thermosetting polymers , used across different injection moulding processes . Thermoplastic polymers are reusable, while thermosetting polymers are intended for single-use applications. In this article, we’ll explore 13 of the most common ...
