This article describes the copolymerization of styrene-butylmethacrylate (St-BMA) and the homopolymerization of styrene (St) in a counterrotating twin screw extruder. The effect of prepolymerization on both the product properties and process was studied. It turned out that the process of reactive ex

Simulation of monomeric material transport in reactive extrusion revealed that two different situations can be distinguished in the partially filled zone of a twin-screw extruder. Material is transported from the bottom of the barrel to the top of the screw by drag or material remains on the bottom
A new sampling device is used to perform near-real-time investigations of physical and chemical processes occurring inside a laboratory twin-screw extruder. Polyamide-6 -ethylene propylene rubber (PA-6 -EPM) blending and styrene-maleic anhydride (SMA) imidation experiments are reported in terms of m
In this study, the finite element method was used to investigate the effects of screw speed, entering peroxide distribution, and pressure-to-drag flow ratio on the mixing characteristics of steady non-isothermal reactive flows in a forward conveying element of a self-wiping twin screw extruder. The
The laser Doppler anemometer (LDA) technique has been successfully applied to measure the local velocities in the nip region of a twinscrew extruder. Tangential and axial components of velocity for heavy corn syrup were measured below and on either side of the nip. The experimental data show that th
