510 – 520 °F

Melt Temperature 221 – 271 °C

430 – 520 °F

Melt temperatures above 530°F are not recommended, and may result in color shifts and or thermal instability.
Mold Temperature 76.7 – 82.2 °C

170 – 180 °F

Higher mold temperature can aid flow in processing, provides a better surface finish, and creates less residual stress in the finished products.
