Material Notes:
Capron 8232G HS FR is a 25% glass fiber reinforced, heat stabilized, flame retardant nylon 6 injection molding compound exhibiting excellent melt stability characteristics. It combines flame retardant ability with an excellent balance of high strength, stiffness and heat distortion temperature.Capron 8232G HS FR is generally recommended for applications such as connectors, terminal blocks, switches and receptacles, coil bobbins, and appliance housings.Data provided by Allied Signal.Processing: Max. water content 0.16%. 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: 250-280 degC (482-536 degF). Mold Temperature: 80-95 degC (176-203 degF). Injection and Packing Pressure: 35-125 bar (500-1500psi) This product can be processed over a wide range of mold temperatures; however, for applications where aesthetics critical, a mold surface temperature of 80-95 degC (176-203 degF) is required. 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. Back pressure can be utilized to provide uniform melt consistency and reduce trapped air and gas. A maximum of 3.5 bar (50 psi) is recommended to minimize glass fiber breakage. Fast fill rates are recommended to insure uniform melt delivery to the cavity and prevent premature freezing. Surface appearance is directly affected by injection rate.Capron® is no longer a part of the BASF standard line. The BASF nylon products have been consolidated in the Ultramid ® line.
