How can moldings be prevented from breaking apart on ejection?

At optimum draft angles (c. 2°, but at least 1°) and with well-polished molds, PLEXIGLAS^® moldings can usually be demolded without any problems. If there are problems with demolding owing to unfavorable mold or molding design, PLEXIGLAS^® molding compounds can also be supplied in special "le" grades for easy mold release. If the requirements to be met by the part allow it, grades of PLEXIGLAS^® molding compound with higher impact strength can be used instead of standard molding compound.
