DME Company Coratex™ Purging Compound

Powerful Overall Cleaner When changing your molding machine to run a different material and/or switching the color of the mixture, you need a purging compound that will not only remove all traces of the previous mix, including degraded material from the screw and barrel, but accomplish this with as little downtime as possible. CORATEX® liquid purging compound cleans the entire plasticator, mixed with a minimum amount of plasticizing material. It can be used immediately after the molding process to avoid costly delays in production. It will clean not only the pigments and plastic residue from the barrel and screw but, when used without a carrier, is also an excellent polishing medium for removing oxidation from metal. CORATEX® contains approximately 30% solvents so should not be used near food or food preparation equipment or be allowed to drain into ground water. It is not water soluble, has a slight odor of ammonia and is barely, not explosively, flammable.
