Chapter 73 Plastic Products
Weapons are extensions of limbs. Humans do not have sharp minions, but with weapons, they can turn wild beasts with sharp claws and sharp teeth into food.
Now, Yang Yi is that person, and the boxing champion is that beast.
So Yang Yi needs weapons, very, very much, but he has no weapons and no way to obtain weapons. So... it's a big deal to make it yourself.
Being a garbage disposaler is the most convenient way for Yang Yi to obtain weapons. If he cannot get the job of a garbage disposaler, he will naturally think of other ways to obtain weapons. The ability to obtain garbage is just the most convenient and most troublesome way.
After packing up the prepared few things. After finishing preparation, Yang Yi took a big shovel like a shovel and began to clean up the dirty things on the shovel. He wanted to make the shovel clean as much as possible.
Chris swallowed and whispered: "Can the drink bottle be used? It will become very crisp after it melts and hardens. It won't work well, right?"
Yang Yi smiled, and then he said confidently: "There are many types of plastics. Not all plastics will become very brittle after melting and hardening, at least polyethylene will definitely not."
Yang Yi carefully placed the plastic bottle on a shovel and inserted it into the furnace. At a high temperature of more than 1,000 degrees, the plastic bottle deformed extremely rapidly and started to burn.
He quickly took out the shovel. Yang Yi wanted to blow out the burning plastic bottle, but the fire was too big and he couldn't blow it out with his mouth. So Yang Yi had to put the shovel into the furnace until the plastic bottle stuck to the shovel was burned out.
The melting temperature of polyethylene is between 160 degrees and 80 degrees. It is actually not easy to melt the bottle instead of burning it.
The shovel quickly burned red in the furnace. Yang Yi placed the shovel on the ground and waited without any haste to wait until the color of the shovel changed from bright red to dark red, and then returned to black. Yang Yi placed the plastic bottle directly on the shovel.
The temperature of the shovel was about 400 degrees. The plastic bottle started to melt quickly when it was put on, but it soon began to emit blue smoke and then it started to burn again.
He blew out the flame with his mouth, but the plastic bottle soon stopped melting. Yang Yi shook his head and said, "No, I still have to burn it."
Chris watched from the side, he was just doing the work he deserved.
Yang Yi put the plastic bottle on the shovel again and placed it in the furnace to burn it, but this time he would not wait for the plastic bottle to burn. He put the shovel into the furnace and then quickly took it out, repeating the same action.
Soon, the plastic bottle turned into a pool of melting liquid, emitting a blue smoke and exuded an unpleasant smell.
After looking at the current shape of the plastic bottle, Yang Yi nodded with satisfaction, then put the shovel into the furnace to burn the plastic liquid.
Chris couldn't help but say, "Why did it burn again?"
Yang Yi shrugged, "Just doing an experiment, using plastic alone is not reliable, because it cannot be made too thick, and it is not easy to pierce in if it is made too thin and soft, it will become bent, and if it is too crisp, it may break. I need plastic with enough strength and hardness but not too crisp, so I need a little addition."
Picking up the wooden stick that had been prepared long ago, Yang Yi smiled and said, "That's it."
"Mujiu, what can this do?"
Yang Yi put the wooden stick into the furnace, and the wooden stick quickly burned, and then Yang Yi pulled the wooden stick out of the furnace.
After waving the burning stick a few times in the air and extinguishing the burning stick, Yang Yi said lightly: "It's not a stick, but charcoal. I don't know what will happen if I add charcoal to plastic, but according to the characteristics of polyethylene, it's still too soft even if it melts once, so after adding impurities, it may become hard."
After burning all the Ximu sticks, waiting to be extinguished and cooled, Yang Yi began to crush the fine wooden sticks, and then crushed the small pieces of charcoal on the ground little by little.
Yang Yi only got a small handful of charcoal powder, but it should be enough.
In fact, Yang Yi didn't know whether adding toner to melted plastic can increase hardness, but logically speaking, adding other impurities to the plastic will definitely change the form. Other things except toner can also be used, but Yang Yi can only find powdery objects such as charcoal powder, and if there is no toner, then even a stone can be crushed into powder can be tried.
Anyway, it was all experiments. Yang Yi had never done it himself or read it to others, so he would know it by trying it.
After preparing the toner, Yang Yi once again turned several plastic bottles into semi-liquid and semi-solid state. With experience, this time it went much smoother.
He poured the liquid with smoke and pungent smell into the paper tube containing potato chips. Then Yang Yi quickly threw the toner in, and then he stirred it hard with a wooden tube. When the plastic liquid could not be stirred, he pulled out the wooden stick and waited for the plastic to cool down.
It was still hot until the plastic liquid was touched, but when it could be touched with your hands, Yang Yi quickly destroyed the paper tube and then started to slap with his hands with gloves.
Soon, a black plastic stick about 30 cm long was formed, and then it was easy to pinch a pointed stick with your hands.
The plastic stick is as thick as a thumb. No matter how thick it is, the resistance is too great. It is not easy to penetrate deep when stabbing people. If it is too thin, it will break, or it will be too soft and it will bend when it is poked. However, Yang Yi didn't want to just have a stick, he wanted a triangular pyramid.
A triangle is the most stable shape, and as a weapon that can only be stabbed, the triangular pyramid is undoubtedly the most stable shape. It is too simple to make three edges on a stick that can be kneaded at will with your hands.
While the plastic was not hard, Yang Yi tried to make the tip of the triangular pyramid smoother. Because it was made of spikes made of plastic, Yang Yi did not dare to make the triangular pyramid too sharp, but the shape he chose was to have the maximum strength while trying to ensure strength.
The triangular pyramid finally cooled down completely, and Yang Yi exploded to the ground beside him. He would rather do it again than use a weapon that had no idea of its performance.
The plastic pyramid is not broken or bent, but the tip of the cone is deformed by the top, but it can definitely pierce a person's belly with the same force.
Yang Yi was very satisfied, very very satisfied. Now, he has a deadly enough weapon, and it is longer than the weapons made by prisoners in most prisons.
But Yang Yi was not satisfied. One inch long is one inch stronger, so he decided to make a longer and more useful weapon, and he had already made plans for anything to do.
