This document summarizes an investigation into the initial melting processes of polymers in high-speed twin screw extruders. Experiments were conducted using a test stand that allowed high-speed visualization of a cross-section of the plasticization zone. The experiments showed that plastic energy dissipation during compression and deformation of polymer granules in the intermeshing zone of the screws is the primary mechanism for melting. A parametric study examined the effects of process parameters like screw speed, temperature, screw configuration, and material type on initial melting.
Description originale:
A test stand to observe movement and deformation of thermoplastic polymers in a cross section of the plastification zone of a co-rotating twin screw extruder is presented. Multiple experiments to examine the initial melting processes in dependence of different process parameters such as rotational speed, temperature, kneading disk configuration, polymeric material, granule size and filling degree were conducted. The focus thereby was the visualization of underlying effects by high-speed imaging. This allowed gaining insights into the basic energy dissipation mechanisms and the most significant process parameters for the initial melting process
