Answer to Question 1

Blister packaging forms a pocket of stiff plastic material in a standard thermoforming method. The pocket is filled with the product and then sealed. Skin packs are made with a flexible plastic that is formed over the top of the part and the display card by drawing a vacuum through holes in the card. The skin pack is, therefore, tight against the product and the card whereas the blister pack is not tight against the product, but allows some movement of the product inside the pocket

Answer to Question 2

The desired material is extruded through a die creating a tube of melted resin. At the center of this tube is an air nozzle that inflates the extrudate out to the sizing basket. The sizing basket helps to contain the blown film along with the regulation of the air pressure. Once the material has cooled to an appropriate temperature it runs through collapsing guides that help to fold the blown film in preparation for labeling, sealing and trimming. After the collapsing guides, the film goes through the nip rollers that remove as much air as possible. The film then goes through whatever processes are necessary for that particular film; these processes may include perforation, labeling,

sealing or slitting. After this post process the film is generally rolled onto a take-up roll and shipped to customers.

Answer to Question 3

Shot size and clamping pressure. If shot size is not sufficient, the part will not be filled. If clamping pressure is not sufficient, the mold will leak and flash will occur.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).

Drug abusers experience the following scenario: The pleasure given by their drug (or drugs) of choice is so strong that it is difficult to eradicate even after years of staying away from the substances involved. Certain triggers may cause a drug abuser to relapse. Research shows that long-term drug abuse results in significant changes in brain function that persist long after an individual stops using drugs. It is most important to realize that the same is true of not just illegal substances but alcohol and tobacco as well.
