 |
| Predrying Temperature |
Predrying Time |
| 130°C |
5hrs. |
|
 |
Predry under the following conditions. To keep the material dry, use
of hopper dryer is recommended .
To prevent decomposition of material, follow the recommended conditions
below. |
| |
1) Optimum material temperatures
: 260 - 290°C Do not heat above 290°C.
2) Limit in-cylinder retention time :
 |
| Cylinder Temperature |
Maximum Residence
Time |
| Slow Burning Type |
Flame Retarded Type |
| 270°C |
100min. |
20min. |
(The above conditions give a standard, and
may vary under different conditions.) |
 |
|
| |
In case of decomposition of
the material or any fear of decomposition, reduce the cylinder temperature
and purge (discharge) the material from the cylinder. During purging,wear
safety goggles and keep hands and face away from the nozzle section. |
| |
When shutting down the molding
operation, purge FR-PET® and turn the heater
off. |
| |
Do not mix any colorants,
additives or resins of other brands with FR-PET®
except those we recommend. |
| |
When FR-PET®
is replaced by other material, FR-PET®
should be purged by Polyethylene (PE) or Polystyrene (PS). |
| |
Keep the work place ventilated
locally or entirely during operation.
