- Recommended Uses
A flow enhancer/dispersant for TiO2 and other Inorganic fillers and pigments. Improves wetting and loading and reduces torque in mixing. Also for processing thermoplastic resins , especially those molded at high temperatures (above 500ºF/260ºC) Each component in this formulation has been certified by our raw material suppliers as having direct USFDA approval for food contact.
- Application Method
General:
For best results, laboratory tests or pre-production trials should determine the optimum addition level. MoldWiz process aid additives are effective within a range of 1 to 10 parts per 1000 resin excluding reinforcements, pigments and fillers. A high amount of filler may require a higher percentage of additives than the indicated maximum. Always start an evaluation at 5 parts per 1000 (0.5%). The additive may increase the MFI. Reduce the level of additive or the process temperature to raise the resin viscosity and to eliminate screw slippage.
Mixing:
Dry blend the additive by tumbling or use dispenser to meter directly into the resin stream. Additives may be compounded into the resin to make a masterbatch.
