Solvay Specialty Polymers Ixef® 1524 Polyarylamide (PARA)  (Unverified Data**)

Ixef 1524 is a 50% glass-fiber reinforced, halogen-free flame retardant polyarylamide which exhibits high strength and stiffness, good surface gloss, and excellent creep resistance. - Black: Ixef 1524/9008 - Custom ColorableInjection Notes: Hot Runners: 250°C to 260°C (482°F to 500°F) Injection Pressure: rapid Drying This resin should be dried to a target moisture content of less than 0.10%. When using a desiccant air dryer with dew point of -28°C (-18°F) or lower, these guidelines can be followed: 1-2 hours at 120°C (248°F), 2-4 hours at 100°C (212°F), or 2-8 hours at 80°C (176°F). Injection Molding IXEF 1524 compound can be readily injection molded in most screw injection molding machines. A general purpose screw is recommended, with minimum back pressure. The measured melt temperature should be about 270°C (518°F), and the barrel temperatures should be around 250°C to 260°C (482°F to 500°F) in the rear zone, gradually increasing to 260°C to 275°C (500°F to 527°F) in the front zone. If hot runners are used, they should be set to 250°C to 260°C (482°F to 500°F). To maximize crystallinity, the temperature of the mold cavity surface must be held between 120°C and 140°C (248°F and 284°F). Molding at lower temperatures will produce articles that may warp, have poor surface appearance, and have a greater tendency to creep. Set injection pressure to give rapid injection. Adjust holding pressure and hold time to maximize part weight. Transfer from injection to hold pressure at the screw position just before the part is completely filled (95%-99%).Data is presented for dry polymer unless noted as 'conditioned'.Information provided by Solvay Specialty Polymers.
