How ApplPoly Products got into the present situation? In our textbook[1]‚ it says to move quickly and also avoid expensive new-product failures‚ companies should follow an organized new-product development process: (1) idea generation‚ (2) screening‚ (3) idea evaluation‚ (4) development (of product and marketing mix)‚ and (5) commercialization. The hypothesis to have marketers to discover product flaws early‚ and find the remedy to it‚ has proven unprofitable. This process requires much analysis

brand of closed-cell extruded polystyrene foam currently made for thermal insulation and craft applications. It is owned and manufactured by The Dow Chemical Company. In the United States and Canada‚ the word Styrofoam refers to expanded (not extruded) polystyrene foam‚ such as disposable coffee cups‚ coolers‚ or cushioning material in packaging‚ which are typically white and are made of expanded polystyrene beads. This is a different material from the extruded polystyrene used for Styrofoam insulation

From the mid-1980s onwards‚ plastic bags became common for carrying daily groceries from the store to vehicles and homes throughout the developed world. As plastic bags increasingly replaced paper bags‚ and as other plastic materials and products replaced glass‚ metal‚ stone‚ timber and other materials‚ a packaging materials war erupted‚ with plastic shopping bags at the center of highly publicized disputes. Although few peer-reviewed studies or government surveys have provided estimates for global

1. Chemical Migration * According to the International Plastics Task Force‚ harmful chemicals -- such as acetaldehyde -- can migrate from plastic packaging to the contents of the package. Plastics associated with this concern include polystyrene‚ PVC and polyethylene. Plastic Packaging Production * Plastic packaging is produced from natural gas‚ which strains a resource that could be put to other uses. During the extended process of plastic packaging production‚ plasticizers are

Styrofoam is also a plastic and it is a light‚ expanded polystyrene plastic. Styrofoam is a very versatile material used in many hobby applications ranging from remote-control airplanes to home remodeling. Like other plastics it takes years to decompose Styrofoam‚ a reason why we should use it efficiently and correctly

Polystyrene can be rigid or foamed. General purpose polystyrene is clear‚ hard and brittle. It is a very inexpensive resin per unit weight. It is a rather poor barrier to oxygen and water vapor and has a relatively low melting point.[4] Polystyrene is one of the most widely usedplastics‚ the scale of its production

Because of these we devised a way to recycle used Styrofoam‚ and this is to make glue out of it. This glue can help reduce the number of Styrofoam that will be thrown away. Styrofoam is made of polystyrene beads which unravel into fine strands whenever it is melted/dissolved. Due to the unraveling of polystyrene‚ the Styrofoam will become a thick like gel. When it is a gel‚ it will be moldable and when it dries it will be very sticky. It is a very effective adhesive to glue things together. But it
