The two-step extrusion method was used to manufacture pipe-grade high density polyethylene (HDPE) material from recycled HDPE. With the two-step extrusion method, dicumyl peroxide (DCP) can completely ...

With its diverse portfolio of polymer testing and sensing equipment, Dynisco is bringing rheology to the masses. Rheology is the investigation of the ­flow and deformation behavior of materials when ...

On the right, a vacuum-assisted extrusion is leveraged in large-scale additive manufacturing to reduce porosity in printed parts. The inset image, on the left, is a close-up of the vacuum-assisted ...

Drawn fiber is used in a wide range of applications including over-braiding for hoses, medical braiding, weaves as mist eliminators, strengthening for industrial belting applications, instrument and ...

MarqMetrix probes can be inserted into extruder barrels, enabling continuous monitoring of the extrusion process and allowing for quantitative and qualitative judgments to be made in real-time. PCA is ...

Extrusion is a process used for the creation of fixed cross-sectional profiles. Materials, such as plastic or thermoplastic, are pressed through a die of desired shape and cross-section. Plastic ...

A presentation at the Leistritz Pharmaceutical-Nutraceutical Extrusion Seminar explained how simulation tools benefit the development process. Twin-screw extruders (TSE) are used in multiple ...
