Demoulding behaviour

Process analysis for the determination of the demoulding behaviour of internal and external release agents for reactive plastics

 

Temperature controlled (up to 200 °C) laboratory mould for smallest material amounts

 

Force or displacement controlled press with 35 bar moulding pressure

 

Vacuum application in the mould possible

 

Detection of the demoulding force depending on the mould temperature, amount of release agent, number of demouldings, moulding pressure, cleaning cycles, etc.

 

Influence of metering and dosing as well as material conditioning

 

Evaluation of the parting plane

 

For: polyurethane, epoxy, polyester and phenolic resins, silicones, rubbers and foams
