If transport or storage temperatures are too high the material can agglomerate in its container. In such cases, it is advisable to store the material for 48 hours at below 23c and then to sieve it (mesh size 4mm) before filling the mold. To achieve optimum properties, compression molding should be carried out within a temperature range of 23c to 26c and a humidity range of 45 to 55 percent and a pressure of 70 MPa. The maximum sintering temperature should be 365c.
