Melting of PP/PA6 polymer blends in single screw extruders: an experimental study

A prototype modular single screw extruder fitted with a screw extracting device is used to monitor melting of an immiscible polymer blend (PP/PA6, with different weight ratios) in this widely used processing equipment. As anticipated, the phenomena observed are much more complex than those involved...
