CONTROL OF THE SHEAR STRAIN IN THE HOMOGENIZATION ZONE OF THE DISK EXTRUDER

A simple method for determining the quality of a polymer melt is very important in production. that provides simplicity and quick use, making it valuable optimizing extrusion processes.
 This work describes how mixing effect can be improved by changing velocity fields thereby shear strain values. The has been calculated all four channels homogenization zone disk extruder. It was found rotation frequency allows mean value channel rate from 3324 to 4966 with constant performance entire zone. impact different on evaluated, first, second, third, fourth contributing 21%, 57%, 15%, 7% respectively overall zone's effectiveness mixing. Additionally, second experiences highest In case third channel, although values are relatively high, short residence time element results comparatively smaller average remain given speed. indicated possible assess amount energy supplied, which simplifies process melt, as well its regulation.
