Discover how polymer upcycling through reactive extrusion and FTIR microscopy enables enhanced blend compatibilization for ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Angel investors understand the high stakes of funding new technologies. The journey is fraught with financial, technical and market risks—but when a groundbreaking well-designed innovation meets the ...

The authors examine the influence of glass-transition temperature, melt viscosity, degradation temperature, and process settings. Hot-melt extrusion (HME) technology is prominent in the pharmaceutical ...
