Condensation
Vol. 27 #1, March 2000

Condensation can cause surface imperfections, "chicken tracks", craters, and if severe, can cause voids, blowouts and product/part breakdown. Condensation is normally a problem where the pellets are stored outside or in colder areas before using. Condensation on the pellets can also occur during periods of high humidity. Be sure material is properly dried to prevent this occurrence.
