On-Line Optical Monitoring of the Mixing Performance in Co-Rotating Twin-Screw Extruders

The use of real-time techniques to evaluate the global mixing performance of co-rotating twin-screw extruders is well consolidated, but much less is reported on the specific contribution of individual screw zones. This work uses on-line flow turbidity and birefringence to ascertain the mixing perfor...
