Avient Versaflex™ FFC 2882-87 Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE)
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Elastomer, TPE

Material Notes: Versaflex™ FFC 2882-87 is designed to pass several fatty food extraction conditions identified in EU Directive 2002/72/EC, FDA 21 CFR 177.2600, and GB 4806.1-94. Versaflex™ FFC 2882-87 will also overmold and co-extrude to polypropylene.

Rear: 380-400F Center: 390-420F Front: 400-440F Screw: 100-500rpm

Color concentrates based on polypropylene (PP), ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), or low density polyethylene (LDPE) are most suitable for coloring Versaflex™ FFC 2882-87. 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. Liquid color can be used, but mineral oil based carriers may have a significant effect on the final hardness value. Concentrates based on PVC should not be used. A high color match consistency can be obtained by the use of precolored compounds available from GLS. 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™ FFC 2882-87 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™ FFC 2882-87 has excellent melt stability. Maximum residence times may vary, depending on the size of the barrel. Generally, the barrel should be emptied if it is idle for periods of 8 - 10 minutes or longer. Drying is not Required Injection Speed: 1 to 3 in/sec 1st Stage - Boost Pressure: 500 to 700 psi 2nd Stage - Hold Pressure: 10 to 30% of Boost Hold Time (Thick Part): 2 to 4 sec Hold Time (Thin Part): 1 to 2 sec
