Subcategory: Polypropylene; Thermoplastic; Polymer

Material Notes:
10% Wollastonite-Filled, Heat-Stabilized, Homopolymer Polypropylene

Description: Natural

Applications: Primary use is for AC/heater blower wheels.

Specifications: Meets/exceeds Ford Engineering Material Specification WSH-M4D832-A

Comments:
Tensile/Izod Change (1000 hrs./140°C): +6/+10%; WSH-M4D832-A Specification: ±15/-25; ISO 188
Mineral Content: 11 %;WSH-M4D832-A Specification: 10.0-12.0; ISO 3451/1A
Material Pre-dry: Normally it is not necessary to pre-dry this material. However, if conditions dictate drying to optimize material properties and part appearance then dry in a desiccant dryer at 180°F for 2-3 hours or 160°F for >4 hours.
Manifolds: Maintain manifolds, runners and tips 10 to 20°F above the front one temperature to allow easier filling. (Gate drool is best eliminated using screw decompression rather than reducing tip temperature.)
Back Pressure (Range): 20-50 psi. Injection Speed: medium to fast. Screw Speed: medium. Injection Pressure: Adjust to just above a short shot. Injection Time: Adjust to just above a short shot. Cushion (Range): 0.2-0.5 in. Nozzle Type: Free flowing/Standard.
Some conditions may have to be altered to obtain acceptable parts (proper mold filling, dimensional stability, etc.) Please do not run too cold, molded in stress and rough surface may become a problem. If you must run below melt or temperatures recommended for dimensional precision you may compromise impact and esthetics. Retest parts to confirm performance.
