Uses / Applications
Twin Screw Extruders (TSEs) can be used to replicate typical processing conditions used in industry to produce commodity polymers such as HDPE, PET, PP etc. By reproducing these conditions, the polymer stability during processing can be studied to see if degradation occurs. Further the effect of recycling of polymers over repeated service lives can be quantified to better understand the recyclability of polymer systems and therefore tailor additive selection.
