Hei-Cast 8263 Vacuum Casting Services

When prototypes require extreme durability and resistance to brittle fracture, Hei-Cast 8263 is the material of choice. This high-performance polyurethane resin is formulated to simulate the physical characteristics of High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) and Polypropylene (PP). Unlike standard ABS-like resins that may crack under sudden load, Hei-Cast 8263 absorbs energy, making it virtually "unbreakable" in standard use conditions. At JUCHENG, we utilize this resin to manufacture functional automotive parts and protective casings that must survive rigorous drop tests and assembly strains.

Grundlegende Eigenschaften & Zusammensetzung

Hei-Cast 8263 is designed to bridge the gap between rigid plastics and semi-flexible materials.
  • HDPE/PP Simulation: It replicates the waxy, tough feel of polyethylene and polypropylene.
  • Hohe Schlagfestigkeit: Its defining feature is superior impact resistance. It will dent or deform rather than shatter upon impact.
  • Flexibilität: It offers a lower modulus (stiffness) than ABS simulants, allowing for significant bending and flexing without permanent deformation or cracking.
  • Verschleißfestigkeit: Good resistance to abrasion, suitable for parts that undergo friction.

Farboptionen

  • Standard: White / Milky White.
  • Farbabstimmung: JUCHENG can pigment the resin to achieve specific colors (e.g., Black for automotive bumpers, Safety Orange for industrial guards).
  • Lackieren: Due to its flexibility, we use specialized elastomeric primers and paints to ensure the coating does not crack when the part is bent.

Wichtige technische Parameter

1. Mechanische Eigenschaften (Typische Werte nach dem Aushärten):
Eigenschaft Wert Einheit Standard
Härte 75 - 80 Shore D JIS K 7215
Biegemodul 800 - 1,000 MPa JIS K 7171
Zugfestigkeit 35 - 45 MPa JIS K 7113
Bruchdehnung 20 - 30 % JIS K 7113
Wärmeformbeständigkeitstemperatur (HDT) 65 - 75 °C JIS K 7110
Schlagzähigkeit (Charpy) 8 - 12 kJ/m² JIS K 7191
Linearer Schrumpf 0.3 - 0.5 % -

2. VERARBEITUNG 
  • Vakuumguss: Requires a high-quality vacuum environment to prevent porosity, which could compromise toughness.
  • Topfzeit: Approx. 6-8 minutes at 25°C. The fast reaction time requires efficient process control by our technicians.
  • Entformen: 60 minutes at 60-70°C.
  • Aushärtung: Standard thermal post-cure is necessary to maximize impact properties.
 
3. VORSICHTSMASSNAHMEN 
  • Surface Tacky: PE-like resins can sometimes feel slightly tacky immediately after demolding; JUCHENG employs specific cleaning protocols to ensure a smooth, dry finish.
  • Feuchtigkeit: The hardener component is sensitive to moisture.

4. LAGERUNG 
  • Bedingungen: Store in a cool, dry place. Shelf life is typically shorter than rigid ABS resins, so we maintain fresh stock rotation.
 

Anwendungsszenarien & Bereiche

Hei-Cast 8263 is essential for "crash-proof" prototyping:
  • Automobil: Bumper prototypes, fender flares, interior trim clips, crash-test components.
  • Schutzausrüstung: Helmets, knee pads (hard shell), tool housings that endure job-site abuse.
  • Packaging: Shampoo bottles, flexible containers, flip-top caps.
  • Living Hinges: Functional prototypes of integrated box hinges that need to open and close repeatedly.

Kompatibilität mit Vakuumgussverfahren

  • Silikonwerkzeuge: Compatible with standard molds. Due to the resin's toughness, demolding complex undercuts is easier than with rigid brittle resins.
  • Bearbeitung: Can be drilled and trimmed, but due to its "gummy" nature (like real PE), high-speed cutting can cause melting. We use sharp tools and slow speeds.
  • Endbearbeitung: Best suited for Matte or Textured finishes. High-gloss polishing is difficult due to the material's softness.

Vorteile vs. Einschränkungen

Vorteile Einschränkungen
Extreme Toughness: Excellent shock absorption. Low Heat Resistance: HDT is around 70°C. Not for high-temp zones.
High Elongation: Can bend significantly without breaking. Polishing: Difficult to achieve a mirror finish; matte is best.
Snap-Fit Friendly: Ideal for clipping parts together. Rigidity: Not suitable for structural parts requiring high stiffness (will flex).
Chemical Resistance: Good resistance to common household chemicals.
