The Different Types of Plastics and Their Uses
ABS : a terpolymer made from three monomers, acrylonitrile, butadiene and styrene. Acrylonitrile and styrene provide chemical resistance, butadiene adds impact resistance and makes the plastic suitable for furniture, computer housings etc.
Acrylic: a hard thermoplastic made from acrylic acid or a derivative of acrylic acid. Best known as a glass substitute, typically under the trade names Perspex, Lucite and Plexiglas.
Amino plastics: Plastics made from ammonia based compounds, namely urea formaldehyde and melamine formaldehyde.
Bakelite : really a trade name but frequently used as a generic name for phenol formaldehyde (phenolic).
Cellophane : A Du Pont trade name for film made from regenerated wood pulp (cellulose).
Cellulose : The fibrous matter in all plant cells, with a long chain molecular structure. The most common sources used for making plastics are cotton fibres and wood pulp
Cellulose acetate: A tough thermplastic made from cellulose in the form of cotton linters, treated with acetic acid and acetic anhydride. Used for many domestic mouldings such as spectacle frames, toothbrush handles, and as transparent packaging film.
Cellulose acetate butyrate: A thermoplastic made from cellulose treated with acetic and butyric acids. Transparent, opaque or coloured, with excellent moulding qualities, used where more moisture resistance and dimensional stability than cellulose acetate is required.
Copolymer: A plastic made by polymerizing two monomers, eg styrene and acrylonitrile .
Elastomer: A synthetic plastic with the flexible properties of rubber.
Epoxy resin: A very tough thermosetting resin used as a coating, or reinforced to make mouldings or laminates.
Ester : A compound produced by the reaction between an acid and an alcohol.
GRP : Glass reinforced polyester, ie polyester resin strengthened by glass fibres, making the resin, which has no strength of its own, into a very tensile material. Widely used to build boats, furniture and cars.
HIPS : High impact polystyrene
LLDPE : Linear low density polyethylene, a new type of low density polythene.
Melalmine : Melamine formaldehyde, a thermoset produced by reacting (triaminotriazine) with formaldehyde. A tough glossy plastic usually strengthened with a filler of wood pulp.
Monomer: A simple low molecular weight compound. Polymerization links monomers together to form high molecular weight polymers.
Nylon: Not one material but a group of very tough and flexible materials called polyamides. Thermoplastic and usually found as fibres or used solid, as gears, zips and more recently as dyed jewellery.
Phenolic: abbreviated version of phenol - formaldehyde. Phenolic is usually reinforced with a filler, but cast phenolic has no filler and can be translucent. It can be easily coloured and is used decoratively for jewellery, radio cabinets and all kinds of ornaments.
Polycarbonate : A very tough thermoplastic, usually found as a substitute for glass, eg: vandal proof telephone kiosks,bullet proof shields, baby bottles and picnicware.
Polyesters : Complex ester compounds which are thermosetting and can be polymerized at room temperature, eg GRP.
Polymer : Another word for a plastic material: one which has been made from chains of molecules of one or more monomers. Polymers (plastics) are organic substances, made from hundreds or thousands of molecules linked together in a repeating chain pattern (also known as macromolecules).
Polymerization : The chemical process of linking monomers to form new compounds called polymers. For example,ethylene is polymerized into polyethylene, (polythene for short).
Polypropylene : A thermoplastic polymerized from propene, very close to polythene in molecular structure, but harder, stronger and less flexible.
Polystyrene : A brittle.water white thermoplastic polymerized from styrene - (phenylethylene). The brittleness is overcome by adding some butadiene, which results in toughened polystyrene also known as high impact polystyrene (HIPS), a copolymer of butadiene and styrene. Expanded polystyrene is the rigid white foam used for packaging.

Useful Information About Insulation
Insulation is a material that is used to slow down or reduce the flow of energy. The substances used to produce insulating materials are poor conductors of heat and electricity.
Insulators can be of several types. Thermal insulators slow down the transfer of heat energy, acoustic insulators reduce the flow of sound and electrical insulators prevent the flow of electrical energy.
Materials like fiberglass, rock wool and slag wool are widely used by the insulation industry. A large variety of materials may be used to make the insulators. These include organic, inorganic, rigid, soft, fibrous or granular materials. Generally, organic insulators are produced from petrochemicals and recycled plastic, while inorganic insulators are made from recycled glass and furnace slag.
An interesting research revealed that the insulation industry is among the leading industries in the U.S. It not only strengthens the U.S. economy and increases monetary savings for consumers, but also helps improve the state of the global environment.
The energy savings resulting from good insulation add up to big dollar savings. Interestingly, current insulation levels save U.S. homeowners approximately $74 billion dollars in energy costs each year, or an average of $780 per household. Without insulation, homeowners in the U.S. typically spend about $2,000 on energy each year; whereas, with the use of insulators, they spend an average of only $1,200. Current insulation levels have helped cut residential energy bills by forty per cent. Commercial building owners are also saving money on their heating and cooling bills by over $9.6 billion dollars a year nationwide, or an average of $2,100 a year per building.
Though existing insulation is saving enormous amounts of energy and pollution, there remains a substantial potential for cost-effective investments in building and industrial insulation. Residential buildings, commercial buildings and industrial plants, which are insulated with proper protocols, not only save energy but also help avoid a substantial amount of air pollution as well.

Auditorium Seating
There are a myriad of decisions that need to be made before purchasing seating for an auditorium. Auditorium seating is obviously one of the cornerstones of a good venue. Their aesthetics and comfort level contribute greatly to the overall feel of a venue. Another characteristic of great significance, however, is the acoustic property of the chair.
A poorly constructed chair can wreak havoc on the acoustics of an auditorium space. With acoustic engineers dedicating a significant amount of design time to how walls are constructed or the layout of acoustic panels that are placed on those walls, they sometimes overlook the seats themselves which cover a large portion of the auditorium. Few items in the venue will have as much of an impact on the quality of an auditorium's acoustics as the chairs.
Mitigating the challenges that come with attempting to create an acoustically sound environment means working with a seating solution that will address acoustics in two ways, first is when the seat is occupied and second is when it is not occupied. When the bottom of a chair is folded up it will have entirely different acoustic properties than when someone is sitting in it. Engineers use, for example, wood backings under the chairs with evenly spaced holes to minimize sound wave reverberation. The foam padding employed in the seat is another area of importance to be considered. Most qualified chair manufacturers will list the acoustic properties of their chairs in terms of "absorption coefficients". This number is a great way for engineers to determine how their chair is going to perform once installed. Typically these figures will be attained by performing tests in a certified reverberation room laboratory.
Testing methods employed should be according to ASTM C423-90a and E795-92. The laboratory will test at a series of different frequencies, recording the absorption sabins per unit at each frequency to determine the acoustic properties. It can prove useful to test both an occupied and unoccupied seat. The greater the chair's ability to absorb sound waves, the better it will be for your venue. Chairs that reverberate a great deal of sound end up distorting the sound being produced by the performance or presentation in your venue, decreasing clarity and the quality of your auditorium.
Finding the best auditorium seating for your project isn't just about looks. The acoustic properties of your chair go a long way in determining how successful your project will ultimately be.

Mahogany Furniture
The name Mahogany refers to trees or wood from a family of hardwoods called Swietenia Mahogoni, variants of which can be found in many countries of the world. A Mahogany tree can grow up to 150 feet tall and 6 feet wide so when cut it produces boards with a straight grain with an even texture. The timber has a reddish brown colour which as with most woods will darken over time. It displays a rich reddish sheen when polished which can be achieved without the use of stain, this only adds to the appeal and is part of the reason behind the popularity of Mahogany.
It is often used for musical instruments such as for the backs of acoustic guitars and drum shells as well as a wide variety of electric guitars.
In past years mahogany was a preferred material for boat and ship building due to its ability to resist water and bugs.
Mahogany is a favourable material for fine furniture and cabinet making as it is a highly durable wood able to resist insects and moisture. It is also used in making antique furniture reproductions. When making mahogany furniture it is important that the wood be kiln dried and then inspected for warping before construction so that the finished product does not warp after manufacture. Various species of the tree have become extinct in some areas but most Mahogany furniture makers have a stable source for supply as it is now being cultivated on plantations specifically for commercial purposes.
Using the large boards that the Mahogany tree is able to produce, furniture makers can create desks, tables and many other examples of furniture without seams or join lines. Mahogany is also relatively easy to work with as it is incredibly strong, easy to sand and to cut cleanly. Due to the solid durable nature of the wood, Mahogany furniture is often passed through many generations of families. To maintain the natural look of the wood, coats of furniture wax can be applied three or four times a year. This will enhance the natural grain and help nourish the wood to ensure longevity.
If concerned about purchasing an item made from Mahogany due to any possible environmental impact, look for products certified by the FSC (Forest Stewardship Council). They are an independent non profit agency concerned with responsible forestry. Purchasing wood with the FSC stamp of approval could provide years of enjoyment from a solid wood item along with piece of mind that future availability of the wood is being protected.

How Much Does a Recording Studio Cost?
The cost of setting up a professional recording studio at home can vary from $500 to $20,000. If you don't have an extra room to set up a studio then you will also need to rent a place, which will cost extra. The setup cost will depend on what kind of a studio you are going to build. Are you planning to set up a serious business, which can render services to varieties of customers and charge a high fee? Or is it just a simple a home-based studio to cater to the local bands for a minimum charge? Here are a few tips to help you get an estimate of how much it may cost to set up a recording studio.
Processing the room
First of all, you need to process your room in order to make the sound quality better. Remember, a normal room or your basement was not built for sound recording and therefore will need some work before it can be converted into a good recording studio. You can purchase good quality acoustic foam and stick them on walls by yourself. One case of foam will cost anything between $70 and $300. You may need around 7 cases for a 10'X10' room. You can also take help of professionals and make the room soundproof. This is an additional cost that you can undertake if you want to render a high-quality, professional service. For a low budget studio, you can start much cheaper. There are many ways to improve room acoustics cheaply or for free. These ideas will be discussed in another article.
Hardware and software
Among the hardware equipment, you will need a computer, a soundboard, an interface, and a good microphone with a stand and microphone cable. The whole microphone set may cost you around $500 or less for a decent one. You can also get a MIDI keyboard, which will cost around $100 for a cheap starter keyboard. You will also need digital recording software, which may cost anything between $100 and $800. If you want something free, I recommend Audacity. Do a Google search, and you'll find it easily.
Musical equipment
It is advisable to keep a few pieces of musical equipment handy, in case your customers need to borrow something. This happens quite a bit. If you already have a guitar or any other instrument of your own, keep them in the studio. You may not need to invest in new musical instruments if you don't have much room in your budget for this. You can also consider investing into a few second hand instruments that are in good condition. Mostly, bands just want to have options in the studio. If you have some old beat up guitars, amps, and effects lying around, they are happy to tinker with them. This also increases the value of your studio, which helps you command a higher fee for your services.
