Material Notes:
Capron BG50XFI is an injection molding type 6 nylon graft copolymer with superior impact resistance and flow especially for thinner walled parts and long flow lengths. It is also available in natural and pigmented versions. Copolymerization results in varying levels of toughness and flexibility combined with excellent thermal and chemical properties. Exhibits higher impact performance than that of conventional nylon homopolymers while maintaining good strength, chemical resistance and stiffness.Capron BG50XFI is generally recommended for applications such as cellular phone housings, handheld device, caps, furniture rails, escutcheons, covers, mower decks and tool.Data provided by Allied Signal.Processing: Max. water content 0.25%. Product is supplied in sealed containers and drying is not required. If drying becomes necessary, a dehumidifying or desiccant dryer operating at 85°C (185 °F). Is recommended. Drying time is dependent on moisture level.Melt Temperature: 240-280 degC (464-536 degF). Mold Temperature: 80-95 degC (176-203 degF). Injection and Packing Pressure: 35-125 bar (500-1500psi) A mold temperature of 80-95 degC (176-203 degF) is recommended, but temperatures of as low as 10 degC (50 degF) can be used where applicable. Injection pressure controls the filling of the part and should be applied for 90% of ram travel. Packing pressure affects the final part and can be used effectively in controlling sink marks and shrinkage. It should be applied and maintained until the gate area is completely frozen off. Fast fill rates are recommended to insure uniform melt delivery to the cavity and prevent premature freezing.Capron® is no longer a part of the BASF standard line. The BASF nylon products have been consolidated in the Ultramid ® line.
