Product handling

This product is supplied in sealed containers and drying prior to processing is not required.

However, high moisture is the primary cause of processing problems. If drying becomes

necessary a dehumidifying or desiccant dryer operating at 80 °C (176 °F) is recommended.

Drying time is dependent on moisture level. Further information concerning safe handling

procedures can be obtained from the Material Safety Data Sheet. Alternatively, please contact

your Honeywell representative.

Typical Profile

Melt Temperature 240-280 °C (464-536 °F)

Mold Temperature 80-95 °C (176-203 °F)

Injection and Packing Pressure 35-125 bar (500-1500 psi)

Mold Temperatures

A mold temperature of 80-95 °C (176-203 °F) is recommended, but temperatures as low as 10 C

(50 F) can be used where applicable.

Pressures

Injection pressure controls the filling of the part and should not be applied for 90% of ram travel.

Packing pressure affects the final part and can be used effectively in controlling sink marks and

shrinkage. It should be applied and maintained until the gate area is completely frozen off.

Fill Rate

Fast fill rates are recommended to insure uniform melt delivery to the cavity and prevent

premature freezing.

These values are for natural color resins only. Colorants or other additives may alter some or all

of these properties. The data listed here fall within the normal range of product properties, but

should not be used to establish specification limits nor used alone as the basis for design.
