28、plated metal plate and cover with a similar plate.Place spacers, 1.91 6 0.03 mm (0.075 6 0.001 in.) thick,between the chrome-plated metal plates and far enough apartso that they do not interfere with the flow of the resin duringmolding. Place the plates, with spacers and resin in place,between the p
29、latens of the press, the platens having beenheated to a surface temperature of 265 6 5C. Close andcontinuously load the platens, following the rate of melting sothat the plates reach the stops within 3 min after closing thepress. Then apply sufficient pressure for 3 min more to mold asheet of the re
30、quired thickness. Immediately after completionof the pressing, relieve the load, remove the plates and plasticsheet together, and at once quench them in cold water (15 65C) for 5 min, supporting the sandwich in a vertical positionin the water. Then strip the 1.58 6 0.08-mm (0.062 60.003-in.) thick s
