Typical maximum residence time should be 8 - 10 minutes at processing temperature.
SEBS formulations release from cool surfaces more easily than hot surfaces.
Overmolded parts will take longer to cool because the TPE is only cooled from one side as the plastic substrate has poor thermal conductivity.

Change one variable at a time.
Clear TPEs have higher Coefficients of Friction (COF) and tend to be more difficult to eject from low draft cavities or cores.
Due to this unique viscosity/shear rate dependency, normal melt index testing (done at shear rates as low as 50 1/sec) will not reflect how the TPE will process at higher shear rates.
