I need to mount an item in some plastic/resin for machining, but need to dissolve the plastic/resin afterwards? Question: The item is made from metal and needs to be held in a very small clamp during machining since it is very delicate and i want to use the support of the plastic/resin to prevent damage to the item. After machining I need to dissolve away the plastic/resin to recover the item. What plastic/resin can I use for this purpose? Answer: You can also use low melting point metals such as Wood's Metal or Field's Metal to do fixtureing. Some melt at below 70 deg C and all you need is a jig with a cavity filled with the metal. Heat the jig, place part into molten metal and wait for it to solidify machine part and heat it again to remove part. Waxes are useful and used in gemstone work, they are conveniently heat reversible and many different grades of waxes are available. Bitumen/tar mixtures are used by lens grinders to mount glass while grinding and polishing. Many epoxies and resins have a weakness for some or other solvent, check the incompatibility lists. The strong solvents are often not so nice to humans though like Methylene Chloride and Trichloro Ethylene so you need to establish suitable handling protocols. Acetone is reasonably safe but not as active, any solvent takes time to breakdown good quality epoxies and resins. Expanding construction foam (and the two part stuff used for filling fibreglass surf boards) may be strong enough if they are used in a small gap. Powdered Polystyrene is melted to mount metal specimens for cutting, grinding and polishing for metallographic work (microphotography and spark spectroscopy) but the specimens are generally not expected to be removed though you could usually melt the plastic off carefully. Perhaps not suitable for your application Using a compressible solid like Masonite/hardboard or rubber to clamp the part may be an option even if you use a new piece each time you clamp it assuming the clamping forces are not too strong. Magnetic chucks are popular for ferrous metals and vacuum chucks for flat surfaced parts, surprising holding forces are possible. |
