PLA Flowing Agent F-S1100

F-S1100 is a novel flowing agent developed specifically for polylactic acid (PLA). The flowability of PLA is improved by over 30% with 0.2‰ of F-S1100. Meanwhile, the thermal and mechanical properties are not affected obviously.

1. Materials

  • PLA: Pliith PT-101
  • Flowing agent: Inovia F-S1100

2. Processing

  • Drying: 85℃, 2~3h.
  • Extrusion temperature: 160/190/190/185/185/180/180/180/185/190℃
  • Injection temperature: 180~200℃; mold temperature: 40~60℃

Note: "PLA" in the diagram refers to PLA pure resin after extruding.
