KYDEX V – Black 12" x 12" x 0.125" pack of 1 sheet

Description

KYDEX V KYDEX V sheet has excellent forming properties, which results in
uniform wall thicknesses and crisp detail. KYDEX V sheet forms to deep draws
with low forces when heated to the upper end of the forming temperature range.
Unlike many other thermoforming sheets, KYDEX V sheet has unusually high
resistance to hot tearing. Forming Guidelines – Oven temperatures should be
set differently than the settings used for ABS or FR-ABS. – Typical heater
settings (percentage timers) are 30% – 50% top heaters and 50% – 70% bottom
heaters. – The most frequent problem is trying to heat the sheet too quickly,
particularly on the primary surface. – Cycle times will vary depending on the
oven conditions and grade of KYDEX V sheet being formed. – When forming KYDEX
V sheet, it is better to rely on the sheet appearance during heating than on
fixed cycle times. – Forming temperatures – Guidelines: (Sheet should not
exceed 204°C (400°F). 165 – 177°C (330 – 350°F) for 3.20mm (0.125″) – Ideally the core sheet temperature should be
within 10°F of the surface temperature. Sheet Appearance During Heating As
KYDEX V sheet is heated, the inherent stresses in the sheet will relax. Stage
I: The heating is marked by wide undulations and softening. Stage II: The
material will start to form small ripples (known as oil canning). . Stage III:
The material will start to smooth out and sag (KYDEX V sheet will generally
sag less than other thermoplastics due to its high melt strength. . Stage IV:
The ripples will have smoothed out indicating that most stresses have been
removed. 10 to 30 seconds afterwards the sheet is ready to form.
