Have you ever looked at a cracked plastic part and thought:  “Wow… I definitely did not see that coming.”
Yeah—same.

This is why I’m excited about the upcoming SPE Workshop: Failure in Plastics—a 4‑part online series where we take a deep dive into why plastic parts fail, and more importantly, how to stop them from doing that at the worst possible moment.

 Feb 18, 19, 23 & 25
 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM ET
 Online
 Intermediate • 8 Total Hours

Led by Jeffrey A. Jansen (a man who has probably seen more broken plastic than anyone not working in recycling), we’ll tackle:
 How to actually investigate those failures (beyond staring intensely)
 All the classic failure mechanisms
 Ductile-to-brittle transitions (the plot twist no one asked for)
 Case studies that make you say “Ahhhh… so that’s why it exploded.”

Whether you’re in automotive, medical, consumer goods, aerospace, electronics, or you just want to stop plastic parts from ruining your day—this workshop is for you.
 Can’t attend live? No worries—recordings will be available after each session.
 SPE members get discounted rates (and yes, this is your sign to join SPE).
If you have questions, I’m your guy—just reach out!
