CONCRETE

BOYSENBAR

Thanks to its concrete structure, which consists of natural air bubbles and changes, it makes each flower pot unique.

General Features 

(+) High compressive strength
(+) Heat resistant
(+) Easy to work
(-) May show permanent deformations over time under constant loads.
(-) May show some volume change in response to changes in the environment.

Why did they choose this material for this product?

Concrete flower pot because,
There is no need to have a drainage hole under it. Concrete material naturally adapts to the temperature of the environment. In other words, it provides insulation to the plant in the extreme heat that can be harmful for the plants in the summer months, keeping the roots cool and not rotting, and in the winter when the temperature drops, it feeds the soil by trapping the limited sun rays and heat, and ensures the plant to live and grow in a healthy way. Concrete flower pots are also suitable for indoor and outdoor use and are long-lasting.

Usage Areas

• Use in Commercial Buildings
• Roads or Driveways
• Use in Marine Construction
• Grilles and Sewers
• Fences

Concrete Handrail:This material was preferred due to weather conditions.
Concrete Ornamental Pool
Concrete Floor Laying: It is used here because it is durable.

Manufacturing Techniques

Cement is only one of the components used in the production of concrete.

Other materials used while producing concrete are aggregate, namely sand or piece stones and water.

Plastic > Thermoplastic > ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene)

It is a product made of ABS material, created by injection molding method.

General Features;

  • (+) shockproof
  • (+) easy to mold
  • (+) easily colored
  • (+) chemical resistance
  • (+) surface quality
  • (-) Not suitable for use with food products
  • (-) it is harmful to the environment.

ABS

Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) is an opaque thermoplastic polymer material obtained from Acrylonitrile, 1,3-Butadiene and Styrene monomers. Thanks to its strong and durable structure even at low temperatures, it has good resistance to heat and chemicals and is easy to process.

Usage areas of ABS;

  • bodies of electrical devices
  • kitchenware
  • toys
  • automotive interior and exterior parts
  • furniture, construction, electricity sectors

Injection Molding

The injection molding method is basically based on the molten die casting method.During production, granular plastic materials are melted and injected into high precision processed metal molds. The injection molding unit consists of two elements: the injection unit and the clamping unit. Injection molding is the most cost-effective way to mass-produce a plastic part.  Thus, while thousands of plastic parts are produced with a single metal mold, each part is produced with the same quality.

General features;

  • (+) no need for a second operation
  • (+) mass production
  • (+) surface quality
  • (-) high cost
  • (-) high pressure

Usage areas;

  • automotive
  • medical
  • clothes
  • electronic
  • aviationIt is used in many industries such as rapid prototyping and the production of multi-part parts.

Since a sharp material is used, it is covered with a durable material, abs, in order to be safe. One of the most important reasons for this product is the use of injection molding method, since the material is not easily worn and is durable.

Safety is very important in this product, as the knife is a dangerous tool, so ABS, a durable material that is easy to hold, is used. Injection coating method is used for the same shape and mass production convenience for knıfe.

Similar Materials:


PE: It is a plastic type with good electrical insulation, low friction resistance, very resistant to acid-base and chemical substances.

PS: It is a polymer with ease of processing, good colorability, heat stability, good optical properties, and very good electrical insulation.

Product Review: Dish Sponge

In this article, I will talk about the synthetic dish sponge used in the kitchen, which most of us know.

The dish sponge consists of two layers. The top layer has a harder structure than the bottom layer so that permanent dirt can be easily removed.

It foams easily and has a water-absorbing structure.

The problems we experience with dish sponges; Due to the water-absorbent and soft structure of the sponge, it wears out easily.
