Notes
Conditions of Tensile Stress and Elongation values are: 50 mm/min, Type IV specimen.
Conditions of Flexural Modulus values are: 0.5 inches/min or 12.5 mm/min.
Conditions of Tensile Modulus values are: 50 mm/min, Type I Specimen.
Spiral Flow measures the number of inches of flow produced when molten resin is injected into a long, spiral
channel (0.0625″ insert), at a constant injection pressure of 1000 psi with a melt temperature of 440 °F.
Deflection Temperature Under Load and Low Temperature Brittleness data are for control and development
work and are not intended for use in design or predicting performance at elevated or sub-ambient temperatures.
These are typical property values not to be construed as specification limits.
Processing Techniques
Specific recommendations for resin type and processing conditions can only be made when the end use,
required properties and fabrication equipment are known.
