2 Troubleshoo*ng Main Categories Raw Material Issues Processing Problems Appearance Problems Field Failures
3 Review Processing Procedures Raw Material Inventory and Storage Prepolymer/Curative Meltdown Prepolymer/Curative Transfer Prepolymer Degassing Mixing Prepolymer and Curative Mold Preparation Casting Cure Demold Postcure Finishing
4 Raw Material Issues
5 Raw Material Issues Prepolymer High Viscosity Prepolymer Difficult Degas Pot Life Changes Gel Time Changes
6 Prepolymer High Viscosity Causes: - Overheated prepolymer Ø Heat history Accumulative - Low prepolymer temperature - Use of inappropriate prepolymer
7 Prepolymer High Viscosity Solutions: - Adhere to melting guidelines - Log heat history of prepolymer - Thermocouple temperature check - Choose proper prepolymer - Manage package size to resin use.
8 Prepolymer Difficult Degas Causes: - High prepolymer viscosity - Insufficient degas vacuum - No degassing agent - Moisture contaminated prepolymer (no N2 cap),excessive degassing time
9 Prepolymer Difficult Degas Solutions: - Check prepolymer temperature and heat history - Check vacuum pump gauge - Add degassing agent - Change prepolymer
10 Pot Life Changes Causes: - Degraded prepolymer - Degraded curative - Improper catalyst addition - Incorrect temperature
11 Pot Life Changes Solutions: - Minimize heat history - Check catalyst addition - Monitor temperatures
12 Gel Time Changes Causes: - Degraded prepolymer - Degraded curative - Improper catalyst addition - Incorrect temperatures
13 Gel Time Changes Solutions: - Minimize heat history - Check catalyst addition - Monitor temperatures
14 Processing Problems
15 Processing Problems Poor Physical Properties Low Hardness
16 Poor Physical Proper*es Causes: - Incorrect stoichiometry - Overheated prepolymer - Incomplete cure
17 Poor Physical Proper*es Solutions: - Calibrate equipment regularly - Minimize heat history - Calculate curative on specific %NCO - Use elemental analyzer (Cl) - Follow supplier guidelines - Test sheets for daily production (ref)
18 Low Hardness Causes: - Overheated prepolymer - Incomplete cure (TDI/ triols) - Incorrect stoichiometry - Inadequate mixing
19 Low Hardness Solutions: - Minimize heat history - Calculate curative on specific %NCO - Mix adequately - Follow curing guidelines
20 Helpful Guidelines Raw Materials & Processing Complete melting of prepoymer - not just enough to use (MW range) Low NCO, (low duro) prepolymers more sensitive NCO content important tool, easy and quick to use Tracking heat history Production check list establishes references for YOUR process Add catayst to bulking agent to accurately meter
21 Helpful Guidelines Raw Materials & Processing II Vacuum trap for degassing (curative like HQEE) Check curative blend compatability / temp dependent (BDO/polyol) Temperature! Temperature! Temperature! v Measure oven temps with thermocouple (Oven hot spots) v Use temperature tape to confirm drum temps v Measure actual mold temperatures at pour. v Know your prepolymer temperature v Measure exotherms for your materials
22 Appearance Problems
23 Appearance Problems Large Voids in Parts Small Bubbles in Parts Excessive Shrinkage, Cracking or Warping Swirls/Streaks in Parts Surface cosmetics
24 Large Voids in Parts Causes: - Air entrapment during pour - Short pot life - Leaking mold
25 Large Voids in Parts Solutions: - Redesign mold/vents - Alter pour technique - Use lower viscosity prepolymer - Add degassing agent
26 Small Bubbles in Parts Causes: - Moisture contamination - Inadequate degassing - Poor pouring technique - Failed seal in machine - Mold leakage (during cure)
27 Small Bubbles in Parts Solutions: - Store products under dry N 2 - Degas all components pre- and post mixing - Mold properly heated - Maintain mix head seals
28 Excessive Shrink/Crack/ Warp Causes: - Incompatible resin and mold temperatures - Localized temperature variation - Low stoichiometry
29 Excessive Shrink/Crack/Warp Solutions: - Balance exotherm and mold temperatures - Heat molds adequately - Monitor raw material temperatures
30 Swirls/Streaks in Parts Causes: - Improper mixing - Unevenly dispersed filler - Knit lines
31 Swirls/Streaks in Parts Solutions: - Ensure mixing all components - Disperse fillers in plasticizer - Use smaller size filler particles - Use high viscosity materials - Use increased pot life systems
32 Surface Cosme*cs Causes - Cool mold temperatures ( lakeing ) surface shrinkage - Leak in mold seal ; drawing air onto surface - Excess mold release
33 Surface Cosme*cs Solutions - Insure mold temps are uniform - Improve seal at mold joints where air intake is located - Monitor/gauge mold release amount and frequency
34 Field Failures
35 Field Failures Part Softening in Use Part Hardening in Use Deformed Part Blowout
36 Field Failures Fatique (cracking/chunking) Polyurethane to Non- Polyurethane Bond Failure Swelling Abrasion Failure
37 Part SoOening in Use Causes: - Contact with solvents - Exposure to excessively high temperatures - Hydrolysis of Ester based resins
38 Part SoOening in Use Solutions: - Shield elastomer from solvents - Insulate elastomer from heat source - Choose proper prepolymer
39 Part Hardening in Use Causes: - Soft segment crystallization - Insufficient cure - Low stoichiometry - Plasticizer leaching
40 Part Hardening in Use Solutions: - Choose correct prepolymer - Use stoichiometry above 90% - Ensure plasticizer compatibility - Follow curing guidelines
41 Deformed Part Causes: - Softening by heat - Poor abrasion resistance - Tendency to be thermoplastic - High compression set
42 Deformed Part Solutions: - Reduce heat exposure - Higher abrasion resistance formula - Reduce load/redesign part - Process at correct stoichiometry
43 Blowout Causes: - Improper system choice - Wrong hardness elastomer - Incorrect stoichiometry - Uneven loading - Too great of a load/speed
44 Blowout Solutions: - Choose correct system - Choose correct hardness - Optimize stoichiometry - Load evenly - Redesign part/application
45 PU to Non- PU Bond Failures Causes: - Poor initial bond - Too much stress at bond line - Overheating - Water/solvent permeation
46 PU to Non- PU Bond Failures Solutions: - Use correct primer/adhesive - Apply adhesive properly (Clean room concept) - Design to minimize stress - Provide cooling - Need correct urethane system
47 Swelling Causes: - Exposure to harmful solvents
48 Swelling Solutions: - Choose proper elastomer - Shield elastomer from solvent - Test elastomer before exposure
49 Abrasion Failure Causes: - Incorrect stoichiometry - Excessive heat buildup - Incorrect system choice
50 Abrasion Failure Solutions: - Choose correct stoichiometry - Minimize heat buildup - Choose correct system
