A new double-slit rheometrical die for in-process characterization and extrusion of thermo-mechanically sensitive polymer systems

The twin-slit rheological die can be operated in such a way that the total pressure drop is maintained constant while the shear rate in the measuring slit is changed. The device is particularly useful when coupled to an extruder and used to characterize materials that are sensitive to thermo-mechani...
