Small quantities should be tested before large quantities are used.
Full-round runners or a modified trapezoid runner are the
best designs.
Well depths approximately 1.5 times the diameter of the runner
provide the best results.

Many premixed inks are sufficient—if you QC their levels with opacity cards—but the best way to control opacity levels is to create your inks using mixing systems designed for that purpose.
The best chance of simulating this color module is with a translucent set of evenly opaque colors.

For best results manufacturers should understand the material’s processing benefits and limitations before designing a mold.
The best way to solve this problem is to use air ejection, although a high draft may also be helpful.

Trilliant™ HC high performance formulations were
developed for specific healthcare enclosure needs,
including:
• Chemical resistance to common disinfectants
• UL 94 ratings of 5VA at 3.0, V-0 at 1.5 mm &
V-1 at 0.75 mm
• Retained color aesthetics after chemical
exposure
• Ability to utilize existing PC/PET & COPE tooling
Tested using an adaptation from ASTM D543 for
environmental stress cracking resistance (ESCR),
15 bars of each material were placed into jigs at
1% and 2% strain.
