Investigation of mixing in the melting regime during polymer compounding
Morphology evolution in the melting regime during compounding of immiscible polymer blends. where most of the size scale reduction occurs. is studied. Starting from an initial solid pellet mixture of two components. the progression to the final two-phase viscoelastic melt involves an intermediate …

Dispersion and dissolution kinetics of API particles in pharmaceutical hot melt extrusion
… Extrusion (HME) is essentially a special case of polymer compounding. The elementary steps involved in traditional plastics melt processing are handling of particulates, melting, dispersive and distributive mixing, devolatilization and stripping, and finally pressurization and pumping. However, …

Flow field analysis of some mixing and conveying screw element regions, within a closely intermeshing, co-rotating twin-screw extruder.
Grafting of antioxidants and other modifiers onto polymers by reactive extrusion, has been performed successfully by the Polymer Processing and Performance Group at Aston University. Traditionally the optimum conditions for the grafting process have been established within a Brabender internal …
