Static mixers in hot runners improve polymer mixing while 3D simulation accelerates design optimization for injection molding ...

Semi-crystalline polymers containing amorphous and crystalline regions usually have intimately mixed chains. The resulting topological constraints (entanglements) in the amorphous regions limit the ...

Editor?s note: The author, Donald E. De Laney, a consultant in polymer process rheology, worked with GE for 17 years and has worked with Dynisco over the past eight years. The plastics compounding and ...

With its diverse portfolio of polymer testing and sensing equipment, Dynisco is bringing rheology to the masses. Rheology is the investigation of the ­flow and deformation behavior of materials when ...

Hot melt extrusion (HME) formulation development depends heavily on choosing the appropriate polymers. This article reviews HME process parameters and highlights three polymers in HME: polyethylene ...

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 ...

Porvair Filtration Group has announced a major order worth in excess of £1 million to supply leaf disc filters to Lindauer Dornier GmbH. The filters will be used to filter polyester melt prior to ...

Hot-melt extrusion offers many advantages compared with conventional solid dosage form manufacturing, and has consequently received considerable attention from both the pharmaceutical industry and ...
