PolyOne Versaflex™ 9570-1 Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE)

Versaflex™ 9570-1 has exceptional flow properties and surface aesthetics for a variety of applications. - Excellent Flow for Long, Thin Flow Paths - Exceptional Colorability - Overmold Adhesion to Polypropylene - Superior Surface AestheticsColor concentrates with polypropylene (PP) carrier are most suitable for coloring Versaflex™ 9570-1. Improved color dispersion can be achieved by using higher melt flow concentrates (with a melt flow from 25 - 40 g/10 min). Typical loadings for color concentrates are 1% to 5% by weight. Concentrates based on PVC should not be used. The final determination of color concentrate suitability should be determined by customer trials. Purge thoroughly before and after use of this product with a low flow (0.5 - 2.5 MFR) polyethylene (PE) or polypropylene (PP). Regrind levels up to 20% can be used with Versaflex™ 9570-1 with minimal property loss, provided that the regrind is free of contamination. To minimize losses during molding, the melt temperature should remain as low as possible. The final determination of regrind effectiveness should be determined by the customer. Versaflex™ 9570-1 has good melt stability. Empty the barrel for idle periods of fifteen (15) mintes or longer. Drying is not Required Injection Speed: 1 to 5 in/sec 1st Stage - Boost Pressure: 300 to 700 psi 2nd Stage - Hold Pressure: 30% of Boost Hold Time (Thick Part): 4 to 10 sec Hold Time (Thin Part): 1 to 3 secInformation provided by PolyOne
