In the west it is well know, but in the

East cultures have other ideas. You as a problem solver are going to show the

community what is an egg cup

Polyester Resin Stiff, hard, brittle, unless laminated, good electrical insulator, resists chemicals well Car bodies

Melamine Formaldehyde Stiff, hard, strong, resists some chemicals and stains. Electrical situation

Urea Formaldehyde Stiff, hard, brittle, good electrical insulator, strong Handles

Epoxy resin Good electrical insulator, hard, brittle unless reinforce and resists some chemicals Surface coating

Phenol Formaldehyde A colorless polymer colored with artificial pigments to produce a wide range of different colors Bottle tops

Thermoplastic Materials Properties Uses

Polymethyl Methacrylate(Acrylic)

Stiff, hard but scratches easily, durable, brittle in small sections, good electrical insulator, machines and polished well. Signs

High Impact Polystyrene Light but strong plastic. Widely available in sheets softens at about 95 degrees School projects

Polypropylene Light, hard but scratches easily, tough, good resistance to chemicals, resist work fatigue.

Medical equipment

Polythene - Low Density Tough, good resistance to chemicals, flexible, fairly soft, good electrical insulator Toys

PVC Stiff hard wearing. Plasticizer can be added to create a softer more rubbery material. Shoe soles


Design Brief

I am going to make an egg cup for my mom. The egg cup will represent a shape like an egg. It will be made out of acrylic plastic which is a thermoplastic. It will be made in 8 weeks in the DT lab.

Specification


SummaryIdentify the Problem and Brainstorm - We did the brainstorm together as a class and we answer questions.

Case Study - We research 3 egg cup pictures then we talk about the egg cup.

Materials - We talk about plastics.

Design Brief - We talk about the things that we need to make our egg cup and how do we do it.

Design Specification - We make our guide to make the egg cup.

PlanBy: Ivonne


Step by Step


Gantt Chart


Evaluation of PlanA. Was my plan detailed, realistic, understandable and why?

I think my plan is detailed, realistic and understandable because I do my work tidily and simple

B. Could it be followed by someone else and why?

It could be followed by someone else because i think my plan work is good but my Gantt chart isn't that accurate

C. Are the timings accurate?

I think my timing is not accurate enough cause for some of the steps my timing is too fast and some are to slow

D. Did my plan mention the usage of all materials and resources clearly?

My plan mention the usage of all materials and resource clearly like i need plastic acrylic to make my egg cup


CreateBy: Ivonne


Documented Evidence3 October - 7 October

1. Get materials2. Cut 100 mm by

100 mm 3. Peel off the sticker 4. Scratch the acrylic so the glue wouldn't slip

5. Glue the acrylic together 6. Mark the design 7. Cut the design out 8. Sander the acrylic


Documented Evidence10 October - 14 October

1. File the acrylic

2. Wet and dry the acrylic until its smooth

4. Polish the egg cup

3. Make a hole to put the egg


EvaluationBy: Ivonne


Evaluating my performance at each Stage of the design Cycle

Investigation: I think I did a good job in the investigation stage. This year was easier for me to do the investigation stage cause last year I’ve experienced it.

Design: I think I did a good job too in this stage. I think my designs are better than last year and for this year I love three designs but then I decide the most simple one.

Plan: In this plan I don’t think my Evaluation Of Plan is very good cause I answered the questions with only one sentence.

Create: The fun part for me is when the Wet and dry part and the buffing part. The part that I did new is the sanding and it was challenging but last Mr. Riga helped me sanding it.

Evaluate: I’m still doing the Evaluation. This year’s Evaluation stage is harder. We have to make a presentation about this stage. Last year Mr. Julian gave us a document and we only have to fill in the blanks.


Testing: Meeting SpecificationsNo Title Specification Testing1 Material Acrylic Plastic The material is suitable

2 Time 8 weeks Yes, I make it in a correct time

3 Cost $10 Yes, I stay in budget4 Aesthetics Look good It looks good5 Target Audience For my mom It’s appropriate for my mom

6 Function Put an egg on the egg cup It works7 Propose To eat egg Yes, it has helped my mom to eat egg

8 Theme Shaped like an egg It’s shaped like an egg, but bit like a circle

9 Safety Must be safe, no sharp edge Yes, it’s safe10 Durability Must be strong It’s strong11 Size 100 mm x 100 mm Yes, I use the correct size


Successful Points of ProductI think the successful point from this project for me was the designs for an egg cup. I think my design was simple and it was easy to do.

Least Successful Points of ProductI think the least successful point from this project for me was Creating the egg cup. I think my egg cup is not smooth enough and the shape is almost like a circle.


Modifications/Improvements of the product

If I have another chance to make another egg cup, I would draw the design more like an egg not a circle and I would like to make it smoother by wet and drying the egg cup longer.

The impact to society

I don’t think that it impacts the society because they society have nothing to do with the egg cup. Unless it’s the plastic factory, it helps us to make the material to make the egg cup.


The impact to the Environment

I think that it impacts the environment by making the material to make an egg cup using acrylic. Acrylic is a plastic so, they have to make plastic in the factory and the factory produce pollution to the environment.
