PROCESSING CONDITIONS (Vacuum casting machine)

• Preheat isocyanate to 23 - 30°C in case of being stored below 20°C .

• Preheat polyol and part C to 40°C before using. It is necessary to stir the polyol until both color and aspect become homogeneous.

• Weigh the components according to the mixing ratio, put isocyanate into the upper cup, add part C in polyol to premix.

• Pour isocyanate into polyol (containing Part C) and mix for 1 - 2 minutes after degassing for 10 minutes seperately.

• Cast under vacuum in silicone mould preheated to 70°C.

• Demould after 60 - 90 minutes at 70°C (The more Part C is used, the longer demoulding time is needed)..
