The Miscellaneous directory contains basic information for fluids encountered in the processing industry, ranging from water to metal. A file from the Miscellaneous material database can be imported into Ansys Polyflow using the Read an Old Material Data File menu item, as described in Reading and Writing Material Data Files. For example, the file HDPE.493.mat incorporates typical material data for modelling the viscosity of an HDPE at a temperature of 493 K (220°C).

The Shell_Materials directory contains material data that is appropriate when defining a blow molding or thermoforming application on a membrane element, where the rheology is described by means of an integral KBKZ model (see 3D Viscoelastic Blow Molding Simulations).
