Reduce Energy Consumption
SmartHeat RHC increases the heat-up rate for preforms, enabling energy reductions
for the heating lamps used during the bottle blowing process.
Care must be taken to optimize the bottle
blowing process due to the increased
heat-up rate of the preform, to take
advantage of the many benefits offered
by this product range.

Geon™ Bold vinyl solutions are dark, richly colored materials that stand up to the elements, especially heat build up, without losing their intensity or performance for windows, fencing, decking, and siding.
Caption: This prototype heat sink for an LED ceiling light was molded in PVC from 3D printed inserts produced at the PolyOne Innovation Center in Avon Lake, Ohio.

Externally heated manifolds are best.
Internally heated systems, which use torpedo heaters, are not recommended because they have hot spots, stagnation zones and partially solidified material clinging to the walls.

The material was found to be very slippery, resistant to high heat, and chemically inert.
For example, the heat and chemical resistance of a fluoropolymer will greatly influence the pigment selection process.
