Abstract
An injection molding machine is utilized to develop PVT constants for a given material by pressurizing the material in the barrel against the blocked outlet nozzle, measuring the volume during pressurization, and then weighing the pressurized shot after it is purged from the barrel in order to calculate the specific volume of the material. Plotting specific volume against a variety of pressure and temperature values produces a plot of PVT relationships from which the constants can be derived.
