In this case, the spiral flow test was conducted using two different injection speeds (3 in/sec and 5 in/sec).
Some part designs may benefit from the use of higher thermal conductivity materials such as beryllium copper.

Cesa™ Stat Antistatic Additives PRODUCT SELECTION GUIDE Polymers are typically non-conductive, allowing the buildup of a static charge on the surface that can attract dust or damage electronics stored within packaging.
Cesa™ Stat temporary antistatic additives create a conductive network on polymer surfaces permitting dissipation of the electrical charges.
Permanent antistatic additives, which function regardless of the relative humidity by creating an internal conductive network, are also available as custom masterbatches.
