Experimental Investigation and Molecular Dynamics Simulation on the Anti-Adhesion Behavior of Alkanethiols on Nickel Insert in Micro Injection Molding

Due to the adhesion between the polymer melt and nickel (Ni) mold insert in the micro injection molding process, deformation defects frequently occur when the microstructures are demolded from the insert. In this study, self-assembled alkanethiols were applied to modify the surface of Ni mold insert...
