Processing Notes:

A、Drying before processing, it is recommended to dry for 3-5 hours at 80 degrees centigrade. If it is damp, the drying
time will be lengthened.

B、Cleaning the screw and die with PP or PE before and after processing.

C、The gate and runner can be recycled, but less than 15%.

D、PE/EVA base color masterbatch is better for coloring.
