Injection Molding Processing Conditions

Drying	PC grades are hygroscopic and pre-drying is important. Recommended drying conditions are 100 - 120 C (212 - 248 F) for 3 to 4 hours. Moisture content must be less than 0.02% prior to processing.
Melt Temperature	260 - 340 C (500 - 644 F); higher range for low MFR grades and vice-versa
Mold Temperature	70 - 120 C (158 - 248 F); higher range for low MFR grades and vice-versa
Material Injection Pressure	As high as possible for rapid molding
Injection Speed	Slow injection speeds when small or edge gates are used; high speeds for other types of gates

Chemical and Physical Properties

Polycarbonate is a polyester of carbonic acid. All general-purpose polycarbonates are based on bisphenol A. The bisphenol A component of the molecule contributes to the high glass transition temperature (150 C / 302 F). The rotational mobility of the carbonyl group within the molecule contributes to the high ductility and toughness of the material.

PC is an amorphous engineering material with exceptionally good impact strength, heat resistance, clarity, sterilizability, flame retardancy, and stain resistance. The notched Izod impact strength of PC is very high and mold shrinkage is low and consistent (.1 -.2 mm/mm).

High molecular weight PCs (which translate to low melt flow rate) have higher mechanical properties, but processibility of such grades becomes difficult. The type of PC chosen for a particular application should be based on the desired criteria (for high impact properties, use a low-MFR PC; conversely, for optimal processibility, use a high-MFR PC).

The melt viscosities are typically Newtonian up to shear rates of 1000 1/s and decrease beyond that. The Heat Deflection Temperature Under Load is typically between 130 -140 C (266 - 284 F) and the Vicat Softening Point is typically around 155 C (311 F).
