Usage Information
| Temperature Range | 180°C-330°C (335°F-625°F) |
| Minimum Clearance | Requires a 0.75mm (0.030') clearance for hot runner gates and extrusion dies. |
| Amount of Purge | Typically 1-2 system capacities (actual amount depends on degree of contamination |
| Applications |
Injection Molding - including hot runners Extrusion - profile, sheet. blow molding, cast film & compounding |
| Types of Resin | Most commodity and engineering grade resins within the processing temperature range |
Tips
-
For maximum performance, Asaclean® NH Grade should not be diluted with other materials.
-
Asaclean® NH Grade does not work by chemical reaction, so there is no soak time or hold-up time required for an effective purge.
-
Asaclean® NH Grade works best with maximum agitation - use the maximum safe screw speed and, for thermoplastic injection molding, also use maximum safe back pressure with the screw in the most forward position.
