The determination of the local residence time distribution (RTD) in a co-rotating twin screw extruder was performed using a UV tracer method. This method was used to test the RTD response to a pulse input into the different elementary screw elements such as right-and left-handed screw elements and m

## Abstract The stereoselective substitution of chlorine atoms was used to graft anthracene and phenyl groups onto the poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) backbone as ultraviolet (UV) tracers for the assessment of the residence time distribution (R.T.D) of PVC chains during the extrusion of rigid and plasti
The residence time distribution of poly(viny1 chloride) (PVC) polymers in a counterrotating twin screw commercial extruder was determined and analyzed. The experimental technique involved the use of manganese dioxide as a tracer after being neutron activated and was injected into the extruder during
