water soluble thermoplastic resin

[popy]

I used to work in investment casting, there we had a water soluble wax for complex internal coring. My question is: Does anything exist to do the same thing in injection molding? If not could someone please start working it.
Thanks

There are a number of methods of making hollow thermoplastic mouldings. Some have been used since before WW11.

As I don't feel inclined to do the basic homework for you, try a google search. If that produces no results, repost here with a bit of an explanation as to what you are trying to do exactly.
