Product Texts
Ultramid® 8202 is a low viscosity, general purpose Polyamid 6 injection molding homopolymer exhibiting excellent melt fluidity for filling thin sections. It is also available in heat stabilized (Ultramid® 8202 HS) and/or pigmented versions. It combines good strength, stiffness and toughness as well as excellent heat, chemical and abrasion resistance.
Ultramid® 8202 is generally recommended for applications such as gears, fittings, casters, beatings, clips, fasteners, plugs, caps, and filter bowls.

PREPROCESSING
Pre/Post-processing, max. allowed water content: .15 %
Pre/Post-processing, Pre-drying, Temperature: 80 °C
Pre/Post-processing, Pre-drying, Time: 4 h
PROCESSING
injection molding, Melt temperature, range: 250 - 270 °C
injection molding, Melt temperature, recommended: 260 °C
injection molding, Mold temperature, range: 40 - 60 °C
injection molding, Mold temperature, recommended: 60 °C
injection molding, Dwell time, thermoplastics: 10 min
PREPROCESSING
Max. Water content: 0.2%
Product is supplied in sealed containers and drying prior to molding is not required. If drying becomes necessary, a dehumidifying or desiccant dryer operating at 80 °C (176 °F) is recommended. Drying time is dependent on moisture level.
Further information concerning safe handling procedures can be obtained from the Material Safety Data Sheet. Alternatively, please contact your BASF representative.
PROCESSING
Melt T emperature 240-280 °C (464-536 °F)
Mold Temperature 80-95 °C (176-203 °F)
Injection and Packing Pressure 35-125 bar (500-1500 psi)
A mold temperature of 80-95 °C (176-203 °F) is recommended, but temperatures of as low as 10 °C (50 °F) can be used where applicable.
Injection pressure controls the filling of the part and should be applied for 90% of ram travel. Packing pressure affects the final part and can be used effectively in controlling sink marks and shri nkage. It should be applied and maintained until the gate area is completely frozen off.
Fast fill rates are recommended to insure uniform melt delivery to the cavity and prevent premature freezing.
