Extrusion notes:
Processing
Polidan® T/A-HF pregrafted base must be added with Catalyst Masterbatch PS/2 at 5% by weight to promote curing. Other
Catalyst Masterbatch grades can be used accordingly to information given in the specific technical literature. Blending must be
done just before using (2-3 hours max.). Catalyst Masterbatch doesn't need any predrying if stored in dry conditions in the
original closed bags; in case, predrying can be made at 50-60°C for 4-8 hours.
Polidan® T grades are sensitive to moisture; open bags must be used within 4 hours. Polidan® T grades must be not predried in
any case.
Extrusion equipment
- standard extruders for thermoplastics equipped with screw having compression ratio between 2.3 and 2.7 and 25÷40 L/D ratio
should be used
- don't use screw thermoregulation
Coloring
- Polidan® T compounds can be coloured with PE based masterbatches. Padanaplast suggests the predrying of all colour
masterbatches prior to use.
Curing
- by immersion in hot water at 60-95°C
- by circulation in hot water inside the pipe at 60-95°C
- by exposure to steam
- by exposure in ambient, crosslinking time depends on ambient temperature and relative humidity
- in all cases curing time depends on the thickness; for pipes 18*2 mm 4-6 hours in immersed hot water at 95°C are generally
necessary.
