The Importance of Moisture Content and Viscosity in Plastic Molding for Home Appliances

Reduce molding defects! Quantify the moisture and viscosity of pellets. A must-read comparative article for the molding industry is now available!

In the home appliance industry, the durability of plastic components is crucial to ensure the long-term reliability of products. Particularly for appliances exposed to temperature changes and impacts, it is essential to suppress molding defects and maintain stable quality. Insufficient drying of pellets can lead to shape defects and bubbles in molded products, potentially compromising the durability of the products. This article introduces a method for measuring the moisture content and viscosity of TPU pellets and evaluating their impact on moldability. By utilizing this information, we can contribute to improving the quality of manufacturing home appliances. 【Application Scenarios】 * Molding of housings and components for home appliances * Manufacturing of parts that require durability * Suppressing cost increases due to molding defects 【Effects of Implementation】 * Reduction of molding defects * Improvement of product quality * Enhancement of yield rate
