- Processing Information
- In order to obtain the maximum efficiency from CRAYVALLAC® PA3 BA 20, it is necessary to disperse this product without destroying the crystalline fibres.
- It is therefore preferable to incorporate CRAYVALLAC® PA3 BA 20 under low to medium shear conditions over as short a time period as possible.
- When using a high-speed disperser, it is recommended that CRAYVALLAC® PA3 BA 20 be added during the final stages of production, when the coating has been partially thinned to a viscosity of 600-800 mPa.s (ICI cone and plate at 10000s-1) and the peripheral speed reduced to approximately 4 ms-¹.
- Too high a speed results in destruction of the active fibres and reduced performance, whereas, too low a speed will result in extended incorporation times.
- In general, the time required for incorporation should be kept to a minimum in order to minimize damage due to overshear.
