50% glass fiber, approved for food applications Amodel® FC-1150 and FC-1150 L is an FDA compliant, 50% glass fiber reinforced resin designed for high strength and stiffness (and improved demolding properties for the L grades). This combines with its excellent thermal properties, low water absorption and good hydrolytic stability to make it particularly suited for components used in food service and consumer applications such coffee machines and ovens. - Natural: FC-1150 (L) NT - Black: FC-1150 (L) BK 946 Applications: Appliances; Housings; Non-specific Food Applications; Plumbing Parts; Pump Parts Features: Chemical Resistant; Chlorine Resistant; Creep Resistant; Good Dimensional Stability; Good Stiffness; High Stiffness; High Strength; High Temperature Strength; Low Moisture Absorption Injection notes: Mold Temperature: - Higher tool temperatures might be required for thin wall sections - Minimum mold temperature for typical article thickness is 150°C (302°F) Storage: - Amodel® compounds are shipped in moisture-resistant packages at moisture levels according to specifications. Sealed, undamaged bags should be preferably stored in a dry room at a maximum temperature of 50°C (122°F) and should be protected from possible damage. If only a portion of a package is used, the remaining material should be transferred into a sealable container. It is recommended that Amodel® resins be dried prior to molding following the recommendations found in this datasheet and/or in the Amodel® processing guide.
