Injection Molding Parameters
Maxxam™ FR flame retardant polyolefin formulations are engineered to meet stringent flammability
performance requirements.
Available in both halogen and
non-halogen products, including grades with UL Yellow Card rating, Maxxam FR products can be customized
for specific performance needs.
Follow up by purging machine with general
purpose PP
• Residence time should not exceed 5 minutes for Maxxam FR products
• General ventilation is suggested
Shut Down
• Purge the equipment with a general purpose PP
• All tooling and equipment must be free of any residual Maxxam FR upon
shut down
• Continue generating parts made from the natural PP until clear
• Wipe down tool steel with mold cleaner
• When using a hot runner system, care must be taken to remove residual
product from the manifold
MOLD DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS
Cold Slug Wells
• Place cold slug wells at the base of the sprue to capture the cold material first
emerging from the nozzle
• Place cold slug wells at every 90° bend in the runner system
• Well depths approximately 2–3 times the diameter of the runner provide best
results
Draft Angle
• Draft angle should be 1/2°–1° per side.
