reactive polymer processing

https://doi.org/10.1351/goldbook.RT07630
Process whereby a polymeric monolith is produced through an in-situpolymerization or polymer modification reaction.
Notes:
  1. The polymerization or modification reaction and the transformation of the resulting polymer into a shaped product is accomplished in the same processing equipment.
  2. This type of processing is commonly accomplished by extrusion or injection moulding.
  3. Reaction injection moulding and reinforced reaction injection moulding are types of reactive polymer processing.
