Answer to Question 1

The molds will likely be separated by the injection pressure and excess flash will result.

Answer to Question 2

In a transfer molding operation the cull, runners, and sprue are made from thermoset materials that cannot be remelted, which is required for reprocessing as regrind material. In injection molding the runners and sprue are made from thermoplastics that can be remelted and reprocessed as regrind.
