Processing Recommendations

Before processing, material needs to be dried at 80-90°C for 3 hours, preferably using a dehumidifying drier fed by air with a dew point lower than -30°C.

Suggested moulding temperature profile:

Zone Temperature
Zone 1 205°C
Zone 2 210°C
Zone 3 215°C
Nozzle 210°C

Being affected by the type of machine used, processing conditions and downstream equipment, the suggested temperature profile has to be considered as just indicative.
