Syensqo (Solvay Specialty Polymers) Kalix® 2930 HFFR High Performance (HPPA), Bio-sourced
Categories: Polymer; Renewable/Recycled Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyphthalamide (PPA)

Material Notes: Bio-sourced, meets UL 94V2 at 0.4 mm for electronic devices

Kalix® 2930 HFFR is a bio-sourced polyamide-based material specifically formulated to meet UL 94V2 @ 0.4 mm requirements for electronic devices. The material uses an advanced halogen-free flame retardant package expressly designed to minimize blooming, plate out, and other process related issues commonly associated with flame retardant materials.

- Black: Kalix® 2930 HFFR BK 000

Applications: Cell Phones; Electrical Parts; Electrical/Electronic Applications; Thin-walled Parts

Features: Fast Molding Cycle; Flame Retardant; Good Dimensional Stability; Good Impact Resistance; Good Surface Finish; High Flow; High Stiffness; High Strength; Hot Water Moldability; Low Warpage; Paintable; Platable

- Typical values shown tested on Dry as Molded samples.

- Standard Packaging and Labeling: Kalix® HFFR resin is packaged in foil lined, multiwall paper bags containing 25 kg (55 pounds) of material. Individual packages will be plainly marked with the pr

Injection notes: Storage:
- Kalix® compounds are shipped in moisture-resistant packages at moisture levels according to specifications. Sealed, undamaged bags should be preferably stored in a dry room at a maximum temperature of 50°C (122°F) and should be protected from possible damage. If only a portion of a package is used, the remaining material should be transferred into a sealable container. It is recommended that Kalix® resins be dried prior to molding following the recommendations found in this datasheet and/or in the Kalix® processing guide.
Drying:
- Kalix® compounds are supplied in sealed bags. It should be dried before molding because excessive moisture content will result in reduced mechanical properties and processing issues, such as excessive nozzle drooling, foaming and splay visible on the molded parts.
- Drying temperatures of up to 100°C may be used for dark colored resin (such as black) to achieve shorter drying times, if necessary. For lighter colored resin, 80°C drying temperature is recommended to minimize the risk of oxidative discoloring.
- Use of a desiccant dryer with -40°C dewpoint is strongly suggested to ensure Kalix® material has reached optimum moisture content before processing.
Injection Molding:
- Set injection pressure to give rapid injection. Adjust holding pressure to one-half injection pressure. Set hold time to maximize part weight. Transfer from injection to hold pressure at the screw position just before the part is completely filled.
Tooling:
- This material is not typically recommended for use in hot runner systems due to the possibility of tooling corrosion and wear. If hot runner systems must be used please engage a tooling vendor having adequate experience with flame-retardant, glass-filled polyamides. Ensure that appropriate corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant tool steels and coatings are utilized to increase tooling life cycles.
- Excessive pellet moisture, melt temperature, residence times will accelerate the possibility of corrosion. It is critical that recommended processing parameters are followed to minimize corrosion potential.
