Processing Guidelines (Injection Molding)

Critical Processing Warnings:

• Internal Mold Release: This grade contains internal mold release agents for improved demolding and processing efficiency.

• Drying: ULTEM ATX3562R is hygroscopic and must be dried to <0.02% moisture before processing. Dry at 135°C for 4-6 hours.

• High Flow: This grade offers high flow characteristics (MVR 20 cm³/10min) for easier processing and better mold filling of complex parts.

• Shot Size: Recommended shot to cylinder size is 40-60%.

• Melt Temperature: Avoid excessive residence times to prevent thermal degradation.

• Gate Design: Use large gates and runners to minimize flow resistance and reduce molded-in stress.

• Regrind: Regrind can be used up to 20-25% with virgin material, provided it is clean and properly dried.
