Processing Procedure for Veromor Purge

1. Mix 20% Veromor® Purge with medium flow HDPE, polypropylene or polymer you plan to process next. (This avoids polymer contamination).
   Virgin or regrind can be used.
   
   
2. Starve screw & barrel.
   
   
3. Temperature: Purge between 200-300 Celsius. Lower temperatures can be used. Ensure carrying polymer will flow through equipment at the lower temperatures.
   
   
4. Polymer will be stiffer when mixed with Veromor® Purge
   
   
5. RPM: You do not need to adjust the RPM in most cases prior to purging.
   It is recommended that the amp meter be observed to ensure purge is flowing satisfactorily through the barrel.
   
   
6. Add Veromor® Purge polymer/purge mix to hopper & process through equipment

For Injection Moulding

For  Injection moulding. Add 1 – 2 kg (2.2-4.4 lb) of Veromor® Purge -XT polymer/purge mix for every 25 mm (1 inch) barrel diameter. If openings are smaller than 1.5mm use Veromor® Purge -XS.

For Hot Runner Systems

Add 1 – 2 kg (2.2-4.4 lb) of Veromor^® Purge -XR polymer/purge mix for every 25mm (1 inch) barrel diameter.

For Extrusion Systems

Remove screen packs. Add 2 - 4 kg (2.2-4.4 lb) of Veromor® Purge -XS polymer/purge mix for every 25 mm (1 inch) barrel diameter.

Flush out Veromor® Purge  with polymer you plan to process next

Note:

If the screw & barrel have very bad carbonization, increase amount of Veromor® Purge processed through the barrel.Veromor® Purge can be used at higher addition level but must not exceed 35%

Veromor® Purge -XT and Veromor® Purge -XS are not suitable for hot runner systems.
