Important Notes on Typical Data:

  1. Values listed are typical and based on Celanese official data sheets. They do not constitute a product specification.

  2. Batch-to-batch variations may occur. Confirm properties with specific batch certificate for critical applications.

  3. Final product performance depends on part design, molding conditions, and end-use environment.

  4. Celanese original TDS remains the definitive reference. For detailed data, request the latest official TDS for Hostaform C 9021 FC from our team.

Processing Guidelines (Injection Molding)

The following injection molding parameters are recommended for Hostaform C 9021 FC:

Parameter Recommended Setting & Critical Warnings
Pre-drying 80–100°C for 2–4 hours. Required to prevent surface silver streaks.
Barrel Temperature 180–210°C (Nozzle: 190–200°C).
Mold Temperature 80–100°C (Higher improves crystallinity and surface gloss).
Injection Pressure 80–150 MPa (Medium-to-high for thin-wall filling).
Screw Speed Medium speed to avoid excessive shear degradation.

Critical Processing Warnings for Hostaform C 9021 FC:

  • Thermal Degradation: POM can decompose at high temperatures, releasing formaldehyde gas. Ensure adequate ventilation and avoid prolonged residence time in the barrel.

  • Material Purity: Strictly avoid contamination with other polymers or non-food-contact materials, as this will compromise the food contact compliance of the final product.

  • Regrind/Recycled Material: Adding regrind is not recommended for this food contact grade. If necessary, use a very small percentage (<10%) only with prior validation testing and ensure recycled material meets food contact requirements.

  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place and use sealed, original packaging when possible to maintain purity.
