Bottle body whitening after stretching (stress whitening)

In the stretch '2079851475616104457 production process, the product exhibits the quality defect of "Bottle body whitening after stretching (stress whitening)". The specific manifestation is that stress whitening areas appear on the bottle body after stretch '2079851475616104457. This defect is relatively common when processing materials such as PET, PP, PC, and its occurrence conditions are usually related to the unreasonable settings of stretching temperature, stretch ratio, blowing pressure, and preform heating uniformity. When the "Bottle body whitening after stretching (stress whitening)" situation is severe, it will cause a series of chain quality defects in the product in terms of appearance, dimensional accuracy, mechanical properties, etc., which not only reduces the functionality and safety of the product in use, but also directly increases the scrap rate and production cost. Therefore, this problem requires systematic diagnosis and optimization from multiple dimensions such as material selection, the status of the stretch '2079851475616104457 machine, heating oven, stretch rod, and blow mold, and stretching temperature, stretch ratio, blowing pressure, and preform heating uniformity.

1. Stretching temperature too low. Temperature is the core factor affecting melt fluidity and viscosity. A temperature set too high will cause the melt viscosity to decrease, insufficient melt strength, and even thermal degradation; a temperature that is too low results in poor melt fluidity and insufficient plasticization, making it impossible to fill or form smoothly. A reasonable temperature window should be optimized and determined within the recommended range according to the melting characteristics and thermal stability of the material. 2. Stretch ratio too large. This factor causing the problem reflects that certain process conditions or material characteristics in stretch blow '2079851475616104453ing have not met the optimal molding requirements. Such problems are often cumulative and hidden, and should be investigated and verified as key focus items during process debugging and finalization to ensure that hidden dangers are eliminated at the source. 3. Excessive resin orientation. The selection and handling of materials is the foundation of molding quality. The intrinsic characteristics of the resin, such as molecular weight, molecular weight distribution, and melt index, determine its processing window and final properties. Factors such as raw material moisture content exceeding the standard, impurity mixing, and improper regrind ratio will all cause various defects during processing. In terms of equipment maintenance, the regular overhaul and precision confirmation of the stretch '2079851475616104457 machine, heating oven, stretch rod, and blow mold are not in place, causing the actual operating parameters of the equipment to deviate from the process requirements, which will also become a potential inducement of the "Bottle body whitening after stretching (stress whitening)" problem.

1. Increase the stretching temperature. When implementing adjustments, it is recommended to adopt the single-factor variable method, adjusting only one parameter at a time and fully evaluating the effect, to avoid simultaneous changes of multiple parameters making the cause of the problem untraceable. The adjustment amplitude should be small rather than large; each adjustment is recommended to be controlled within 5%~10% of the original value, and after adjustment, run stably for at least 3~5 mold cycles to observe the effect. 2. Adjust the stretch ratio. Optimization work must be based on an accurate diagnosis of the root cause of the problem, and blind attempts must be avoided. It is recommended to first determine the key influencing factors and their interactions through the process DOE test method or historical production data analysis, and then carry out parameter optimization and structural improvement in a targeted manner to achieve twice the result with half the effort. 3. Optimize the blowing timing. Optimization work must be based on an accurate diagnosis of the root cause of the problem, and blind attempts must be avoided. It is recommended to first determine the key influencing factors and their interactions through the process DOE test method or historical production data analysis, and then carry out parameter optimization and structural improvement in a targeted manner to achieve twice the result with half the effort. In terms of material management, incoming inspection of raw materials upon arrival and in-process inspection of work-in-progress should be strengthened, and the key performance indicators of PET, PP, PC should be strictly controlled to ensure the stability of molding quality from the source.

In summary, the causes of the "Bottle body whitening after stretching (stress whitening)" problem can be attributed to the combined action of multiple factors such as Stretching temperature too low, Stretch ratio too large. Solving this problem requires starting from aspects such as Increase the stretching temperature, Adjust the stretch ratio and adopting systematic governance measures. In actual production, it is recommended to establish a prevention and rapid response mechanism for this problem, and achieve stable production and continuous improvement through preform heating uniformity and biaxial stretch orientation control.
