Performing at a lower pressure and with less stress enables a smoother surface finish and can increase processing speeds by up to 15% compared to alternative grades.
Gel migration is measured using a quantitative internal method * 6151 can be supplied with UV protection * Values concluded from the simulation of materials rheological data and modelling standard extrusion tooling Pressure: can affect extruder performance, higher pressure gives a lower output at the same rpm Shear rate: has a relation with self-cleaning of the walls and mixing conditions Stress: can affect the surface of the product, less stress gives a better surface aspect MIGRATION OF GEL COMPOUND Gel Compound ECCOH™ 6151* ECCOH™ 6153 UV ECCOH™ 6154 UV Unigel Average Good Excellent Teroson Average Excellent Good Itcogel Average Good Excellent ECCOH™ 6151 ECCOH™ 6153 UV ECCOH™ 6154 UV ∆P (bars) 101 63 60 Shear Rate (1/s) 9 9 9 Stress (kPa) 127 79 75 Application example: Gel-filled stranded loose tube optical fiber cable www.avient.com Copyright © 2020, Avient Corporation.
