    The document provides troubleshooting information for mould corrosion in plastic processing. Mould corrosion appears as hard brown or black deposits on the mould surface or eroded material contaminating the moulded article. It can be caused by material degradation, inadequate mould venting, susceptible mould steel, or inadequate mould protection when not in use. Recommended remedial actions include reducing melt temperature and time, improving venting, using corrosion-resistant mould steel, and applying a mould preservative.

    Alternative terms

    Description
    Hard, usually brown or black deposits on the mould surface, or eroded material contaminating all or part of the surface of the moulded article

    Possible Causes 1. Material degradation 2. Inadequate mould venting and poor weld line formation 3. Mould steel susceptible to corrosion 4. Mould inadequately protected when not in use

    Remedial Actions Reduce melt temperature and residence time Improve mould venting and optimise weld line formation Use mould steel which is resistant to corrosion and wear Use a suitable mould preservative
