Low Voc Processing Conditions

To avoid residual humidity from transport or storage, the material should be pre-dried approximately 2h at 80°C.


Following parameters should be used as guidelines:


Holding pressure                 50% – 70% of the injection pressure
Injection speed                     Low to medium
Mold temperature                30 - 50 °C
Injection mass temperature   220 - 260°C
Screw speed                          Slow to medium

  • Injection machine barrel must be cleaned carefully during startup to remove possible degraded remains and impurities.
  • Shot size is suggested to be kept at 30-70% of machine shot capacity to avoid long material residence time.
  • Lower shear rate of plastic material is recommended to achieve lower VOC and odor. Injection speed is recommended to be kept at lower level if part filling is not an issue. Bigger gate size is recommended and try not to use small pin point gate and banana gate.
  • Upon successful filling without appearance defect, low barrel temperature is preferred to achieve lower VOC.
  • Avoid using mold release or lubricant agent during molding process, which will possibly generate undesirable volatiles and odor.
