How to properly apply Chem-Trend® release agents, sealers, paste waxes in polyurethane moulding processes
The different manufacturing processes in polyurethane processing require very specific demands on the mould release agents to be used. That’s why the choice of a suitable release agent is so crucial.
However, mistakes can be made during the spray application of the release agent, which have a negative impact on the production results in several respects. Applying too much release agent is just as undesirable as applying too little release agent. The video clearly shows misapplication and the resulting disadvantages. Afterwards, you will see how it’s done correctly and the advantages you ultimately receive from the correct spray application of the release agent.
Properly applied, Chem-Trend® mould release agents provide a competitive advantage to the largest and smallest manufacturers alike with water- and solvent-based release agent solutions that can maximize productivity while meeting the most demanding specifications and operating conditions.
