Answer

1. For compression molding, both heat and pressure are applied, and the necessary additives are situated between the mold members. 2. For injection molding, the raw materials are impelled by a ram through a heating chamber and into the die cavity. 3. For transfer molding, the solid materials are first melted in the transfer chamber prior to being forced into the die.

Work Step by Step

1. For compression molding, both heat and pressure are applied after the polymer and the necessary additives are situated between the mold members. 2. For injection molding, the raw materials are impelled by a ram through a heating chamber and into the die cavity. 3. For transfer molding, the solid materials are first melted in the transfer chamber prior to being forced into the die.
