GETTING STARTED TIMING IS THE KEY TO A RUNNING COLOR CHANGE Hand Blend • Have the purge blend ready to load • If hopper contains a mixture of resin, color and/ or regrind, it should be run dry or drained before beginning the color change, keeping the screw full so press cycle continues • Run the main resin hopper dry or shut off hopper to hand feed at the throat • Once press is clean, slide hopper in place and proceed with next color-resin blend • The next color can be added while Cesa Clean is still in the barrel • When splay is no longer visible in parts, reset shot size, parts should be ready to pack (Single) Volumetric/Gravimetric Metering Unit at the Throat • Empty and clean feeder while press continues to run • Add Cesa Clean to the feeder color hopper and calibrate to a 3.0% use rate • When press is clean, start next color • When splay is no longer visible in parts, reset shot • Note: If an open/unused secondary feeder is installed, use it for the Cesa Clean concentrate Central Blending Unit • Thoroughly clean unit while continuing to mold parts, keeping a resin feed to the press • Using a clean open hopper or regrind hopper, add the Cesa Clean concentrate • Set blender for additive/color to 3.0% • Once press is clean, drain hopper and/or central blending unit while continuing to mold parts • Begin new color and continue to mold parts • When splay is no longer visible in parts, reset shot Process Adjustments That Can Help • Increase back pressure • Increase screw speed • Increase injection speed (in some tools maximum injection speed can facilitate cleaning) • Reduce mold close time (faster cycle) • Always remember a stock temperature of 400°F is essential When press and tool are clean, return all settings to standard production process profile.

TPE Knowledge Base TPE Technical Bulletin The most common scale for TPE’s is the Shore A scale.

Adding TPE production enables the company to support customers in the country even more quickly and with a broader portfolio of domestically manufactured materials. With the most recent addition of TPE production, PolyOne enables manufacturers to source all of their specialty polymer requirements from a single domestic source. We’re very excited to build upon our momentum in India with domestic production of TPEs,” said Vikas Vij, managing director India at PolyOne.

All grades are formulated for durability, delivering property retention and UV resistance comparable to traditional TPEs. With an opaque natural color, all reSound OM materials can either use traditional TPE colorants or be paired with sustainable colorants from PolyOne. Caption: PolyOne introduces reSound™OM, bio-derived TPEs with 40 to 50 percent bio-renewable content derived from sugarcane.

TPE Knowledge Base TPE Technical Bulletin Many rubbers, soft plastics, urethanes and TPE’s are rated on the “Shore A” scale.
