摘要:
A process for reducing die drool during extrusion of highly filled polymeric resins for production of jacketing insulation for wire and cable by incorporating into the surface of the die in contact with said resin a compound which decreases the adhesiveness between the polymeric resin and the die surface, said compound being employed in an amount sufficient to reduce die drool.
摘要:
A process for producing polymeric film substantially free of draw resonance under conditions and at rates which would otherwise cause draw resonance in polymeric film susceptible to draw resonance wherein a fluid medium is directed against the moving film at a location between the extrusion die and the film take-up zone.
摘要:
An extrusion coating composition and a process for the extrusion coating of a substrate or article. The extrusion coating composition is comprised of greater than 20 and less than 98 weight percent of a high pressure low density polyethylene homopolymer and/or copolymer and greater than 2 and less than 80 weight percent of at least one linear low density ethylene hydrocarbon copolymer.
摘要:
A process and apparatus are disclosed for forming blown film of a low strain hardening polymer, such as a low pressure polymerized-low density ethylene copolymer, including an improved film bubble cooling technique which permits high production rates to be achieved with good film bubble stability. The disclosed process comprises cooling a molten film bubble by contacting the outside of the film bubble with separate annular streams of cooling fluid fed through at least two stacked annular cooling rings disposed around the film bubble, wherein all or substantially all of the cooling fluid exits the system through a common plane formed by the last cooling ring.The disclosed apparatus comprises means for forming a molten film bubble and means for cooling same including at least two separate annular cooling rings disposed around the bubble, each provided with means for feeding an annular cooling fluid stream against the bubble and further including means whereby all or substantially all of said cooling fluid exits the system through a common plane formed by the last cooling ring.
摘要:
Low level irradiation of narrow molecular weight distribution, linear, low density ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer sufficient to introduce crosslinks into the copolymer but insufficient to provide for significant gelation produces improved copolymer rheology providing superior film fabrication.
摘要:
A process for reducing melt fracture formed during extrusion of a molten narrow molecular weight distribution, linear, ethylene polymer, which comprises extruding said polymer through a die having a discharge outlet defining an exit die gap formed by opposing die lip surfaces and wherein one surface of the die lip and/or die land in contact with the molten polymer extends beyond the opposing surface of the die lip and/or die land in the direction of the axis of flow of the molten polymer through the die exit and wherein said extended die lip has a groove extending around said extended die lip, said groove being disposed opposite the leading edge of the opposing die lip surface whereby melt fracture is reduced on both surfaces of the polymer leaving said die exit.
摘要:
A process for reducing melt fracture formed during extrusion of a molten narrow molecular weight distribution, linear, ethylene polymer, which comprises extruding said polymer through a die having a discharge outlet defining an exit die gap formed by opposing die lip surfaces and wherein one surface of the die lip and/or die land in contact with the molten polymer extends beyond the opposing surface of the die lip and/or die land in the direction of the axis of flow of the molten polymer through the die exit whereby melt fracture is reduced on the surface of the polymer leaving the extended die lip surface.
摘要:
In a single screw extruder mixer head for mixing high viscosity linear polyolefins materials employing a plurality of alternate longitudinal mixing and wiping barriers, the improvement of providing longitudinal radially-stepped regions on the opened bevelled leading edge portions of the outer surface of the wiping barriers to act as hydrodynamic wedges to the passage of polyolefin material passing between the surfaces and the inner walls of the extruder barrel; and radially-stepped opened bevelled leading edge portions of the outer surfaces of the wiping barriers and the outer circumferential surfaces of full diameter of the mixer head supporting an outer coating of gall-resistant material.
摘要:
A method is disclosed for the extrusion of low-density linear polyolefin materials having high viscosities, wherein such materials are continuously fed to and through a rotary extruder having feeding, transition and metering sections which comprises employing, in the extruder screw forming such sections in cooperation with the cylindrical interior of the extruder housing, opened leading edges for the screw flights of said sections; and gall-resistant coated surfaces on the screw flights of said sections.
摘要:
A method for reducing the melt fracture during extrusion of a molten narrow molecular weight distribution ethylene polymer which comprises extruding said polymer through a die having a die gap greater than about 50 mils and wherein at least a portion of one surface of the die lip and/or die land in contact with the molten polymer is at an angle of divergence or convergence relative to the axis of flow of the molten polymer through the die.
