Abstract

The effects of ultrasonic oscillations on die pressure, productivity of extrusion, melt viscosity and melt fracture of linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) as well as their mechanism of action were studied in a special ultrasonic oscillation extrusion system developed in our Laboratory. The experimental results showed that, in the presence of ultrasonic oscillations, the melt fracture or surface distortion of LLDPE extrudate is inhibited or disappears. The surface appearance of the LLDPE extrudate was greatly improved. The productivity of LLDPE extrudate was increased in the presence of ultrasonic oscillations. The die pressure, melt viscosity and flow activation energy of LLDPE decreased with the rise in ultrasonic intensity. The shear sensitivity of LLDPE melt viscosity decreased due to the increase of its power law index in the presence of ultrasonic oscillations. Inducing ultrasonic oscillations into LLDPE melt greatly improved its processability. A possible mechanism for the improved processibility is proposed.
