Dieblast green - profile deflashing compounds

Offering a new dimension in cryogenic shotblast applications DIEBLAST GREEN media is manufactured from 100% recycled polymers, molecular bonded to produce low temperature mechanical properties exceeding that of conventional polycarbonate based systems.

Developments in polymer engineering have enabled the re-use of, post consumer, water bottle waste to be crosslinked with high performance flouropolymers such as P.T.F.E. The resulting co-polymer combines the high impact and abrasion resistance of polycarbonate with the cryogenic properties of flouropolymer.

The tough, durable blast media DIEBLAST GREEN is ideally suited for the defashing of rubber and rubber/metal bonded components at sub-zero temperatures down to -140°C with reduced media breakdown rates and higher impact strengths than standard polycarbonate blast systems.

Physical Properties Comparison

100% Recycled product logo

  Standard PC Dieblast Green
Impact strength @ -30°C 20kg/m2 43kg/m2 +115%
Abrasion resistance @ -30°C 9mg 6mg +50%
Media Breakdown Rate @ -40°C 3.7% 2.6% -30%
Media Breakdown Rate @ -80°C 4.9% 3.8% -23%
Media Breakdown Rate @ -100°C 7.2% 5.8% -19%

As the size, shape and integrity of DIEBLAST GREEN is retained, then each particle operates at its maximum kinetic energy, the whole blasting process becomes more efficient with lower media consumption, reduced liquid nitrogen usage and shorter blast cycle times substantially reducing deflashing costs.

Higher Performance – Reduced Costs – Eco-friendly
