Equipment
• Feed throats smaller than 2.5" may cause bridging due to pellet size
- Larger feed throats will be more advantageous with long fiber EMI shielding resins
• General purpose metering screw is recommended
- Mixing/barrier screws are not recommended
• L/D ratio
- 18:1–20:1 (40% feed, 40% transition, 20% metering)
• Low compression ratio
- 2:1–3:1
• Deep flights recommended
- Metering zone 3.5 mm
- Feed zone 7.5 mm
• Check ring
- Three-piece, free-flowing check ring
• General purpose nozzle (large nozzle tips are recommended)
- Minimum orifice diameter of 7/32"
- Tapered nozzles are not recommended for long fiber EMI shielding resins
• Clamp tonnage:
- 2.5–5 tons/in2
Gates
• Large, free-flow gating recommended
- 0.25" x 0.125" land length
- 0.5" gate depth
Runners
• Full round gate design
• No sharp corners
• Minimum of 0.25" diameter
• Hot runners can be used
PROCESSING
Screw Speed Slower screw speeds are recommended to protect fiber length
Back Pressure Lower back pressure is recommended to protect fiber length
Pack Pressure 60–80% of max injection pressure
Hold Pressure 40–60% of max injection pressure
Cool Time 10–30 seconds (depends on part geometry and dimensional stability)
PROCESS CONSIDERATIONS
Recommended – retain fiber length (maximize conductivity)
• Low shear process
• Low screw speed and screw RPM
• Slow Injection speed
• Fill to 99–100% on first stage of injection
- Reduces potential nesting of fibers at gate location
- Improves mechanical performance near gate location
- Promotes ideal fiber orientation
Resin Rich Surface
• Achieved when using a hot mold temperature and longer cure times
≥ Max mold temperature recommendation
• Improved surface aesthetic
• Reduced surface conductivity
• Could reduce attenuation performance in an assembly
Fiber Rich Surface
• Achieved when using a cold mold temperature and shorter cure times
≤ Minimum mold temperature recommendation
• Improved surface aesthetic
• Reduced surface conductivity
• Could improve attenuation performance in an assembly

We are pleased to announce this latest increase of 12%, which reflects the record adjusted EPS we project for 2021 and the confidence we have in our portfolio of sustainable solutions and future growth projections."
Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those implied by these forward-looking statements include disruptions, uncertainty or volatility in the credit markets that could adversely impact the availability of credit already arranged and the availability and cost of credit in the future; the effect on foreign operations of currency fluctuations, tariffs and other political, economic and regulatory risks; the current and potential future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, results of operations, financial position or cash flows including without any limitation, any supply chain and logistics issues; our ability to achieve the strategic and other objectives relating to the acquisition of Clariant's Color business, including any expected synergies; changes in polymer consumption growth rates and laws and regulations regarding plastics in jurisdictions where we conduct business; fluctuations in raw material prices, quality and supply, and in energy prices and supply; production outages or material costs associated with scheduled or unscheduled maintenance programs; unanticipated developments that could occur with respect to contingencies such as litigation and environmental matters; an inability to achieve the anticipated financial benefit from initiatives related to acquisition and integration working capital reductions, cost reductions and employee productivity goals; our ability to continue to pay regular quarterly cash dividends, including at the increased rate, and the amounts and timing of any future dividends; information systems failures and cyberattacks; our ability to consummate and successfully integrate acquisitions; and amounts for cash and non-cash charges related to restructuring plans that may differ from original estimates, including because of timing changes associated with the underlying actions.
