- Recommended Processing Condition
We recommend that material is pre-dried at 80⁰ C for 4 hours for best performance.
As a start up, we recommend the following temperature profile.
170/185/190/205/220//230/230/240/240 ⁰ C with minimum draw down ratio between1:1.2 for pressure tooling. For tube tooling draw down ratio between 2 to 8 is recommended.
However, actual temperature profile will depend upon the screw compression ratio, L/D ratio, type of extrusion sleeve or pressure.
