Incomplete Fill
Melt and/or mold
temperature too cold
• Increase nozzle and barrel temperatures
• Check thermocouples and heater bands
Shot size
• Increase shot size
• Adjust transfer position to 98% full
• Increase cushion
• Enlarge or widen vents and increase number of vents
• Check that vents are unplugged
• Check that gates are unplugged
• Enlarge gates and/or runners
• Perform short shots to determine fill pattern and verify
proper vent location
• Increase wall thickness to move gas trap to parting line
Brittleness
Degraded/overheated
material
• Decrease melt temperature
• Decrease back pressure
• Use smaller barrel
Gate location
and/or size
• Relocate gate to non-stress area
• Increase gate size to allow higher flow rate and lower
molded-in stress
Wet material
• Check moisture.

SPECTROPHOTOMETER CONFIGURATION FOR COA
Type: Datacolor
Illuminate: D65 Daylight
Observer: 10 degree, large area view, specular included
EXPLANATION OF SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC VALUES
DL* Lightness/Darkness Difference (Delta L*)
The shade of gray (black/white)
+ = Lighter
- = Darker
Da* Red/Green Color Difference (Delta a*)
+ = Hue is redder (or less green than)
- = Hue is greener (or less red than)
Db* Yellow/Blue Color Difference (Delta b*)
+ = Hue is yellower (or less blue than)
- = Hue is bluer (or less yellow than)
DC* Difference Attributed to Chromaticity (Delta C*)
+ = More saturated than (more color intensity)
- = Less saturated than (less color intensity)
DH* Difference Due to Hue Only (Delta H*)
DE* Total Color Difference (Delta E*)
DE is a mathematical calculation utilizing the DL*, Da* and Db*, and therefore, used alone this number can be
misleading as to the true color of a material.
