Injection‑Molding Parameters
表格
| Process | Item | Recommendation | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Predrying | Drying temperature | 70‑80 ℃ / 85‑90 ℃ | Desiccant dryer required |
| Drying time | 4‑6 h | Target moisture<0.1%, avoid bubbles & silver‑streaks | |
| Barrel setting | Melt temperature | 238‑272 ℃ / 240‑270 ℃ | Melt temperature dominates filling performance, strictly control residence time to prevent degradation |
| Mold temperature | 34‑71 ℃ / 35‑70 ℃ | Higher temperature improves gloss yet lengthens molding cycle | |
| Injection pressure | High injection pressure | High‑viscosity material; melt temperature has greater influence than injection pressure | |
| Injection speed | Medium | Excessive speed may induce surface defects and internal stress |
