Application:
Lusin® Clean 1500 is suitable for colour and material change as well as for removal of black spot contaminations and carbon residues especially on transparent parts.

We recommend the following cleaning procedure::
1. Prepare a mixture of PC containing 25% of Lusin Clean 1500 (see dosing table)
2. Empty cylinder
3. Fill the mixture into the hopper
4. Fill the cylinder with the plasticized mixture. Stop the screw for 3 - 5 minutes in case of strong and resistant contaminations.
5. Purge the cleaning mixture or in case of cleaning the hotrunner system inject into the mould
6. Refill cylinder with new material
7. Restart production

In case of changing from polycarbonate to other resins like ABS, PP or PA the processing temperatures should be adjusted to the new material after the purge was performed. On restart of the following material the processing temperatures should not be below 250°C.
