Polypropylene Degradation on Co-Rotating Twin-Screw Extruders

Nowadays, usable plastic materials with defined properties are created by blending additives into the base polymer. This is the main task of compounding on co-rotating twin-screw extruders. The thermal and mechanical stress occurring in the process leads to a mostly irreversible damage to the materi...
