Purge thoroughly before and after use of this product with a low flow (0.5 - 2.5 MFR) polystyrene (PS) or polypropylene (PP). Regrind levels up to 20% can be used with Versaflex™ OM 9-801N with minimal property loss, provided that the regrind is free of contamination. To minimize losses during molding, the melt temperature should remain as low as possible. The final determination of regrind effectiveness should be determined by the customer. Versaflex™ OM 9-801N has good melt stability. Maximum residence times may vary, depending on the size of the barrel.
