In resin drying, we\u2019re talking about the point at which water vapor starts to condense back into moisture in the air around your resin. <br \/>Here\u2019s the thing: the lower the dew point, the drier the air.

Resin absorbs moisture from the air, and when it\u2019s heated, that moisture is released as vapor. To dry your resin e\ufb00ectively, the air that\u2019s circulating around the pellets needs to be dry enough to \u201cgrab\u201d that moisture and carry it away.<\/p><p>This is where dew point comes into play. If the dew point is too high, meaning the air contains too much moisture, the air can\u2019t absorb and carry away the water vapor from the resin. As a result, your resin won\u2019t dry properly, leaving you with moisture-related issues like surface imperfections, brittleness, or weakened mechanical properties.<\/p><p>By keeping the dew point low, you\u2019re ensuring that the air is dry enough to absorb the maximum amount of moisture from the resin pellets.

For certain resins, you might want to go a little lower, but that\u2019s typically only for materials like PET, where you\u2019re aiming for a dew point around -50\u00b0F.

Instead of improving the quality of your resin or shortening drying times, you\u2019re just making your bottom line suffer.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3561f81 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"3561f81\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"461\" height=\"282\" src=\"https:\/\/www.novatec.com\/knowledge-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/AdobeStock_651998339.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-3133\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.novatec.com\/knowledge-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/AdobeStock_651998339.png 461w, https:\/\/www.novatec.com\/knowledge-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/AdobeStock_651998339-300x184.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 461px) 100vw, 461px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Running a dryer at an unnecessarily low dew point leads to drastically increased energy bills without any real benefits. <\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-735304f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"735304f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Stick to the Sweet Spot<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f792e79 e-grid e-con-full e-con e-child\" data-id=\"f792e79\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-37dd470 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"37dd470\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"438\" height=\"319\" src=\"https:\/\/www.novatec.com\/knowledge-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/sticking-to-the-sweet-spot.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-3134\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.novatec.com\/knowledge-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/sticking-to-the-sweet-spot.png 438w, https:\/\/www.novatec.com\/knowledge-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/sticking-to-the-sweet-spot-300x218.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 438px) 100vw, 438px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">For most resins -40\u00b0F is your sweet spot.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-eaad825 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"eaad825\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"flex-grow-1 container-fluid p-0 m-0\" role=\"main\"><div id=\"thick\" class=\"mx-auto mb-3\"><div id=\"kcBodyContainer\" class=\"row\"><div id=\"kcbody\" data-gtmid=\"isSC\"><p>For most resins, sticking to a dew point around -40\u00b0F gives you everything you need for optimal drying.

These dryers use a desiccating material (think of it like a super dry sponge) that pulls moisture from the air before that air is sent into the dryer\u2019s hopper. By continuously cycling the desiccating material and reconditioning it, these dryers can maintain that low dew point and ensure the air circulating through your resin is bone dry.<\/p>\n<p><b>But here\u2019s the trick<\/b>: you\u2019ve got to monitor your system. Even with a high-quality dryer, you can experience fluctuations in dew point, especially if the desiccant isn\u2019t maintained properly or if there\u2019s too much moisture in the surrounding environment. Keeping an eye on the dryer\u2019s dew point readings is crucial to maintaining consistent resin drying.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bc16779 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"bc16779\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"320\" height=\"368\" src=\"https:\/\/www.novatec.com\/knowledge-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/magnifying-glass.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-3135\" alt=\"Monitoring your equipment is key.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.novatec.com\/knowledge-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/magnifying-glass.png 320w, https:\/\/www.novatec.com\/knowledge-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/magnifying-glass-261x300.png 261w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Monitoring your equipment is key. <\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6b5dc37 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"6b5dc37\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The Impact of Dew Point on Energy Efficiency<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d1427ea e-grid e-con-full e-con e-child\" data-id=\"d1427ea\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2e81551 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"2e81551\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"244\" height=\"245\" src=\"https:\/\/www.novatec.com\/knowledge-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/AdobeStock_42968267.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-3136\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.novatec.com\/knowledge-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/AdobeStock_42968267.png 244w, https:\/\/www.novatec.com\/knowledge-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/AdobeStock_42968267-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 244px) 100vw, 244px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Maintaining a proper dew point means lower energy bills and faster production. <\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5b14254 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5b14254\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"flex-grow-1 container-fluid p-0 m-0\" role=\"main\"><div id=\"thick\" class=\"mx-auto mb-3\"><div id=\"kcBodyContainer\" class=\"row\"><div id=\"kcbody\" data-gtmid=\"isSC\"><p>Here\u2019s another reason dew point matters\u2014energy efficiency.

Additionally, ensure that your dryer\u2019s air filters are clean and free of clogs, as poor airflow can lead to a higher dew point.<\/p><p><span style=\"font-style: inherit; color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif; text-align: var(--text-align); background-color: var(--ast-global-color-5);\"><b>Fluctuating Dew Point<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif; text-align: var(--text-align); background-color: var(--ast-global-color-5);\">: If your dew point readings are all over the place, it could be due to environmental factors.
