PROCCESING PARAMETERS

The recommended temperatures for ATABOND® resins are as follows;

ZONE PE –BASED GRADES PP –BASED GRADES
ZONE 1 170 - 200 (°C) 200 - 230 (°C)
ZONE 2 170 - 200 (°C) 200 - 230 (°C)

ZONE 4 200 - 230 (°C) 200 - 250 (°C)
AD 200 - 230 (°C) 200 - 250 (°C)
DİE 200 - 230 (°C) 200 - 250 (°C)
MELT TEMPERATURE 200 - 230 (°C) 200 - 240 (°C)
8-300x198
  • Maximum temperature: 280-300°C
  • Temperatures above the upper limit or long residences times of molten resin may lead to decomposition of the polymers.
  • Decomposition products may be Carbondioxide, Carbonmonoxide, Hydrocarbons and water.

SHUTDOWN

The following procedure is recommended whilst the extrusion process is either interrupted or terminated.
  • Less than 2 hours: Screw rotation can be stopped while maintaining temperature.
  • More than 2 hours: Purge out and shut down in accordance with common procedure.

PURGİNG

Below, you will find the recommended purging materials and their extrusion temperatures for a permanent shutdown.

STORAGE

ATABOND® resins are supplied in form of small, free flowing pellets and can be easily handled with commercially available equipment.
  • Store and transport at a temperature below 50 °C
  • Protect from moisture
  • Store the tightly sealed containers in a dry, cool, and well-ventilated location
