POE '2079851475616104452 weld line strength low
Problem Phenomenon
POE injection molded multi-gate product strength at weld line is only 30-40% of the whole
Cause Analysis
The temperature of the two melt fronts has dropped, resulting in small molecular chain diffusion depth and insufficient entanglement; dispersed phase orientation at the weld line is discontinuous
Solution
1) Raise injection temperature 10-15°C to increase diffusion depth; 2) Increase injection speed to keep front temperature higher; 3) Increase holding pressure to ensure compaction at the weld; 4) Set an overflow well at the weld line and cut it off afterwards
Key Takeaway
Low weld line strength is caused by insufficient molecular entanglement; high-temperature high-speed injection and overflow well are effective countermeasures
