The activity generating the emissions is injection moulding. The reference product is injection moulding. This is delivering the service of injection moulding. Injection moulding is the most important process for producing moldings from thermoplastics, elastomers, and thermosets. Injection molding is a discontinuous process in which plastic pellets, granules or powder is melted and injected under pressure into the cavity of a mold, where it is solidified by cooling or thermally cross-linked.  In the service of injection moulding, 1 kg of this process corresponds to 0.994 kg of injection moulded plastics. The converted amount of plastics is not included into the dataset. Thus, this service should be used along with 1 kg of thermoplastics, elastomers, and thermosets material. The reference product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary ordinary transforming activity. Please refer to the ecoinvent documentation here for full details: https://ecoquery.ecoinvent.org/3.11/cutoff/dataset/11934/documentation.

Emission intensity of the supply chain per Canadian dollar spent on: basic organic chemicals. Retrieved from the OpenIO-Canada v2.9 model which is a Canadian Environmentally Extended Input-Output (EEIO) model. The emission factor is provided in purchaser price including taxes retail margins and distribution costs. Endogenization is included meaning the emission factor also accounts for capital goods.
