Selecting and Molding High-Performance Thermoplastics
Molding these high-temperature thermoplastics requires processing equipment capable of melt temperatures up to 400°C and mold temperatures up to 200°C.
As in conventional molding, these materials have specific requirements for success in manufacturing.

Another suggestion is to use a mold surface that has been treated with a release coating or has been sand blasted to trap air next to the mold surface.
GLS can provide special grades with internal mold release agents to minimize the problem.
Keep this in mind when you think of a new part mold for SBC based TPEs.
