- Processing
KI – 04IS can be processed on any good extruder designed for PVC cable extrusion at temperature in the range of 140°C- 180°C.This is the guideline temperature range, actual temperature should be optimized by the user depending upon the other processing variables. The screw must have a good homogenizing capacity. Preheating of granules at 80+/-5 °C for 10 minutes is always advisable for better processing.
