Critical Processing Warnings:
-
Drying: ULTEM 1110F is hygroscopic and must be dried to <0.02% moisture before processing. Dry at 150°C for 4-6 hours.
-
Enhanced Flow: This grade offers improved flow characteristics for easier processing and better mold filling of complex parts.
-
Melt Temperature: Recommended melt temperature range is 360-400°C. Avoid excessive residence times to prevent thermal degradation.
-
Mold Temperature: Higher mold temperatures (135-165°C) improve flow and reduce residual stress.
-
Not for Medical Applications: Effective June 2007, this grade is no longer supported with biocompatibility information and should not be used for medical applications which require biocompatibility. For medical applications, please use alternative grade HU1110.
-
Food Contact: Complies with US FDA, EU Food Contact, and NSF 51 listing. Exceptions may exist in some jurisdictions – request a declaration for details.
-
Regrind: Regrind can be used up to 20-25% with virgin material, provided it is clean and properly dried.
