Insufficient flow length ratio in PVA '2079851475616104452
Problem Phenomenon
PVA '2079851475616104452 flow length ratio only 80-100, below 150, thin-walled products cannot be filled
Cause Analysis
PVA melt viscosity high, flow distance short; injection temperature too low; injection pressure insufficient; mold runner resistance large
Solution
1) Increase injection temperature to 140-200°C; 2) Increase injection pressure to 80-100MPa; 3) Enlarge runner and gate sizes to reduce resistance; 4) Add 0.3-0.5wt% flow aid to reduce viscosity
Key Takeaway
Insufficient flow length ratio is caused by PVA high viscosity; high temperature, high pressure and large gates are key
