Melt Instability Identification Using Unsupervised Machine Learning Algorithms

Abstract In industrial extrusion processes, increasing shear rates can lead to higher production rates. However, at high shear rates, extruded polymers and polymer compounds often exhibit melt instabilities ranging from stick‐slip to sharkskin to gross melt fracture. These instabilities result in ch...
