Q: What is Reaction Injection Molding (R.I.M.)?
A: It is the process of taking two liquid components – a polymer resin blend and a modified diisocynate – which are blended via a high pressure mixing system, then injected into a closed mold at low pressure. The reaction yields a polymer that takes on the details of the mold cavity with high degrees of accuracy and repeatability.

Q: What are the advantages of (R.I.M.)?
A: The inherent advantages are that it replaces many traditional materials. Pliability can be adjusted by the chemicals used as well as density and texture. The overall look can be altered by the characteristics of the mold. R.I.M. saves time and shorter lead times can be attained. The cost of the mold is generally lower than that of typical injection molding.
