Extensional, flow-induced crystallization (FIC) of a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) melt has been studied using a four-roll mill flow cell. Simultaneous measurement of the birefringence and scattering dichroism are used to quantify the crystallization process during and following transient flow de

Poly(vinyl alcohol) was crystallized from its aqueous solution under a steady-state flow with different conditions. Using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), the thermal properties of PVA precipitates obtained by the flow-induced crystallization were measured, showing a single melting peak in
## Abstract The nonβNewtonian flow of silicone fluids in capillaries was investigated with special emphasis on the viscoelastic nature of entrance and exit effects. At low pressures the power law was obeyed, while at high pressures considerable deviations were observed, particularly with short capi
Self-reinforced polypropylene (PP) sheets have been prepared from melt flow-induced crystallization through a conical slit die fed by a conventional extruder. Their structure and properties, influenced by the die pressure ranging from 20 to 50 MPa and die outlet temperature, are studied by scanning
