Drying for Moisture Sensitive MaterialsD-017
Description
Pelletized samples are placed in a vacuum oven or fluid bed dryer for the customer specified time and temperature. Small samples are taken at routine time intervals and moisture is measured an Aboni moisture analyzer. Specimens are continually monitored to ensure the material reaches the desired target moisture.
Standards
- DPL-D-017
Data
Moisture Content. This data appears in Matereality as Moisture Content.

Number of times this test is repeated: 2
Samples
Application
Some polymers are moisture sensitive, meaning they absorb moisture. This moisture content can adversely affect the finished molded product. It is critical that samples be dried to the proper moisture level to produce meaningful test data that accurately represents the material.
