Description
Key Benefits
- Eliheat partially or fully eliminates the need for preheating, depending on the polymer being processed.
- It delivers substantial power consumption savings by cutting 3–4 hours of oven or hopper drying energy per batch.
- It delivers substantial processing time savings, removing the 3–4 hour wait before production can start.
- It prevents silver streaks by addressing trapped moisture inside the polymer matrix.
- It prevents pinholes by stopping vapour escape during processing.
- It prevents porosity, producing a cleaner internal structure in finished parts.
- It improves processing efficiency, delivering shorter cycles and higher throughput.
- It improves product quality, with fewer defects and more consistent output.
- It protects polymer properties by avoiding the degradation caused by prolonged physical drying.

FAQ
What is Eliheat?
Eliheat is an additive that reduces or eliminates the need for preheating polymers before processing. It is designed for ABS, HIPS, Nylon, filled PP, and other polymers that traditionally require 3–4 hours of oven heating or hopper drying before injection moulding or extrusion.
How does Eliheat eliminate preheating?
Conventional preheating addresses only surface moisture. Eliheat works inside the polymer matrix, addressing the trapped moisture and volatiles that physical drying can’t reach. This means polymers can be processed without — or with significantly reduced — preheating time.
Which polymers can Eliheat be used with?
Eliheat is positioned for ABS, HIPS, Nylon, and filled PP, with different grades currently available specifically for PP, HIPS, and ABS. It is also referenced for use in “other polymers” requiring preheating.
How much power can Eliheat save?
By reducing or eliminating the 3–4 hour preheating cycle, Eliheat delivers substantial savings in power consumption. Exact savings depend on your existing preheating process and the specific polymer being processed.
Why does conventional preheating cause silver streaks and pinholes?
Physical preheating (oven, hopper drying) removes volatiles only from the surface of polymer pellets. Moisture trapped inside the polymer matrix remains — and during processing, this trapped moisture turns to vapour, escaping the melt and causing silver streaks, pinholes, and porosity in the finished part.
Does Eliheat protect polymer properties?
Yes. Prolonged use of physical preheating methods can lead to polymer degradation and deterioration of final product properties. By reducing or eliminating preheating time, Eliheat helps protect polymer properties and final product quality.
Are there different grades of Eliheat?
Yes. Different grades of Eliheat are available for different polymers, with named grades currently specified for PP, HIPS, and ABS.
How is Eliheat supplied?
Eliheat is available in 25 kg packaging.
Is Eliheat manufactured in India?
Yes. Eliheat is manufactured in India by Vin Group, an ISO 9001:2015 certified plastic and rubber additive manufacturer operating since 1997.
