Liquid Crystal Polymers are Very Unique

► Melting range rather than sharp melt point and very low heat

of fusion. ► High chain continuity, ordered molecular structure in both solid and melt phase. ► Flows extremely well under shear within the melting range. ► Inherently flame resistant. ► High heat deflection temperatures. ► Reinforcement reduced anisotropy increases load bearing capability.

Molding

Processing Recommendations ► Drying ► General Processing Guidelines ► Equipment ► Additional Considerations

Vectra® Liquid Crystal Polymers (LCP)

15

Molding Drying Conditions ► LCP resins must be dried before molding to reduce the possibility

of hydrolytic degradation. ► Dry LCP at 150 - 170°C for a minimum of 6 hours; overnight

drying of LCP is preferred. Drying for up to 24 hours is acceptable and will not harm LCP. ► A dehumidified hopper dryer must be capable of maintaining

-40°C dew point. Insure that filter element is clean and there is good air flow (>1 ft/sec. space velocity across the surface of pellets). Hopper dryers with dual desiccant cartridges (one active while the other is regenerated) are highly recommended for all grades.
