TPE silver streak moisture
Problem Phenomenon
Silver streaks on the surface of TPE products
Cause Analysis
TPE silver streaks are mostly caused by moisture; during on-site troubleshooting, verify item by item according to this mechanism, and avoid blindly adjusting the machine based only on experience; this mechanism has been repeatedly verified by industry materials and should be confirmed first during troubleshooting
Solution
Actual moisture content measurement; strengthen drying; if still present check shear heat; after adjustment, continuously sample to verify the effect, and resume mass production only after confirming stability; change only one variable at a time and record parameter changes, so as to locate effective measures
Key Takeaway
For silver streaks check moisture first; after confirming effectiveness, fix the parameters and practices into the work instruction to prevent recurrence; include this case in the defect archive as a troubleshooting reference for similar problems later
