What information about plastic material need to provide?
Injection molding process is the process of forming plastic material from molten state into products. The choice of plastic materials needs to be further determined by the environment in which the product will be used, for example UV protection, flame-retardant, etc. What information should be provided to the customer?
Material datasheet
A datasheet of material is a description of the material properties, including physical, and chemical properties, shrinkage rate, etc. The mold designer needs to combine the material properties for mold design, and then control the tolerance of the products.
2. Material safety data sheet
Material safety data sheet, commonly known as MSDS, is a comprehensive regulatory document of product properties provided to customers. It mainly includes the physical and chemical properties, hazards, safety instructions, first aid measures, etc. At the same time. The MSDS file also contains the main components of the material, which can be used to verify the product.
3. Biocompatibility
Biocompatibility report is mainly for medical grade material. Plastic material with biocompatibility report can be used for processing medical devices, the contents include hemolysis, acute systemic toxicity, cytotoxicity, delayed hypersensitivity reaction, and intradermal reaction. Currently, the commonly used medical certification is IDO-10993.
4. Warranty
However, for plastic materials with special functions, the warranty can be used as a guarantee of the quality of the material.
Shanghai Future Mould is an injection mold manufacturer, our company has cooperated with professional plastic material supplier for many years and can provide customers with detailed information on the plastic materials, to ensure that the project moves forward stably.
