Injection Notes
Purge thoroughly before and after use of this product with a low flow (0.5 - 2.5 MFR) polyethylene (PE) or polypropylene (PP). Regrind levels up to 20% can be used with Versaflex™ 9570-9 with minimal property loss, provided that the regrind is free of contamination. To minimize losses during molding, the melt temperature should remain as low as possible. The final determination of regrind effectiveness should be determined by the customer. Versaflex™ 9570-9 has good melt stability. Empty the barrel for idle periods of fifteen (15) mintes or longer. Drying is not Required Injection Speed: 1 to 5 in/sec 1st Stage - Boost Pressure: 300 to 700 psi 2nd Stage - Hold Pressure: 30% of Boost Hold Time (Thick Part): 4 to 10 sec Hold Time (Thin Part): 1 to 3 sec
