Abstract A computer simulation model was established to analyze the reaction injection molding process of nylon 6. A numerical calculation was carried out to predict the temperature, conversion, and crystallinity profile within a disc type mold. The effects of the feed temperature, wall temperature, and overall reaction constant on the eject time were discussed for searching the optimum processing conditions.
