| Drying | ABS resins are hygroscopic and drying is required prior to processing. Suggested drying conditions are 80 - 90 C (176 - 195 F) for a minimum of 2 hours. Resin moisture content should be less than 0.1% |
| Melt Temperature | 200 - 280 C (392 - 536 F); Aim: 230 C (446 F) |
| Mold Temperature | 25 - 80 C (77 - 176 F). (Mold temperatures control the gloss properties; lower mold temperatures produce lower gloss levels) |
| Resin Injection Pressure | 500 - 1,000 bar (7,250 - 14,500 psi) |
| Injection Speed | Moderate - high |
