PLASTIC TESTING




Introduction
This 2-days class introduces basic principles, techniques, and equipment for the most commonly-used physical and analytical tests on polymeric materials, in mechanical properties

Target Group
Technicians, shop foremen, technical liaisons, professionals new to testing and anyone who needs knowledge of test methods.


Prerequisites
Participants attending this course must have basic knowledge about plastic material or process.


Objectives
Upon completion of the course, the participants should be able to:

Ø  Identify the type of materials use.
Ø  Use proper and safe procedure when do testing
Ø  Evaluate and analyse the result of testing


Course contents
1.    General
Basic Polymer Structure & Explanation of Terms
ASTM Standards
2.    Mechanical Properties
Tensile Test - determine the tensile properties of polymers, such as tensile strength, elongation at break and Young Modulus
3.    Impact Test - determine resistance of plastic to pendulum-type hammers, in breaking standard specimens with one pendulum swing
4.    Hardness Test - is the property of a material that enables it to resist plastic deformation, usually by penetration. However, the term hardness may also refer to resistance to bending, scratching, abrasion or cutting.

5.    Free Falling Test (Dart Drop) - determine a material's impact strength are the falling dart and drop dart tests. To determine the force of  impact, multiply the mass of the dart by the height of the fall.

6.    Thermal Properties
Melt Flow Index – measure of the ease of flow of the melt of a thermoplastic polymer.

7.    Vicat Softening Point – is the determination of the softening point for materials that have no definite melting point, such as plastics.


Training Method
Training will be delivered through a combination between the orentical talk, demonstration and practical lessons.


Course Instructor
The instructor for this course is Mr Badaruddin Bin Md Yunus who is a senior instructor at ILP Jitra. Mr Badaruddin has 25 years experience in plastic technology. He graduated from Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) in 1985 with a Diploma in Mechanical Engineering. He also has a Diploma in Plastic Engineering Technology from Northern Alberta Institute of Technology (NAIT), Canada.

Mr Badaruddin has taught many courses on plastic technology to both local and international participants. His expertise is recognized by the Department of Skill Development (DSD) where Mr Badaruddin frequently take parts in syllabus and material development sessions organized by DSD for plastic technology programs.

TRAINING PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT
All training programs including its curriculum structure developed follow National Occupational Skills Standards (NOSS). NOSS is a document that outlines the dexterity required of an employee working in Malaysia at a certain level of employment to achieve specific skills. This Standard was prepared by industry experts and skilled workers in related fields. Its help Skills Training Institute /Trainer/Instructor:
i. To develop an appropriate training curriculum which meets industry needs
ii. To design a full-time training program or customized program that meets industry needs
iii. To have a clearer understanding of the skills required by the industry
iv. Basic assessment of re- training needs of instructors/trainers to meet current industry needs
v. Proper career advice may be given effectively to trainees.

Describe the approaches implemented by your company in ensuring quality training programs.
i) Identification of training needs of employers/industries(Please attach any study, market intelligence or survey conducted).

All the training contents will be developed base on NOSS requirement to ensure the skill training programs meets the industry needs and eliminating miss match/gap between training provider and industry /employers needs. It’s also giving us a clear and systematic approach on how to provide skill training to help company and employee to enhance their career.


ii) Internal factors, including upgrading of trainers’ skills (Please provide evidence).

We train our Trainer/Instructor on related skills areas to improve their knowledge, skills and attitude to become the best trainer in skill training every year including sponsored their participation in Malaysia Skill Competition.


Briefly explain the effort put for continuous improvement of the training programs.

We are establishing Corporate and Lifelong Learning Division to lead on continuous improvement of the training programs and worked with the industry on how to produce competent workers.
CUDBASS method will help us to develop special and workable training programmes to benefit our clients.
