Extrusion is a process widely used in the polymer processing industry. It involves pushing material through a die with a specific cross-sectional shape, resulting in products like profiles, thin ...

Polyfuze Graphics has introduced a technology that “fuses” permanent labels into the plastic during the extrusion process, eliminating the risk of peeling or detachment. The innovation offers ...

Scientists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory have developed a vacuum-assisted extrusion method that reduces internal porosity—by up to 75%—in large-scale 3D-printed polymer parts. The paper is ...

Foster Corp.'s direct-extrusion process reduces heat and shear history in the manufacture of combination products, improving the stability of both the polymer and the drug. Traditionally, combination ...

Changes such as the transition from crystalline to amorphous phases or shifts in vibrational modes can be used to customize the end-polymer's mechanical, thermal, and optical properties to specific ...

Polymer extrusion is a cornerstone of modern manufacturing, employed to produce films, pipes, profiles and advanced composites at industrial scale. The mechanical properties of extruded ...

Reactive processing in polymer extrusion harnesses the extruder as a continuous reactor, enabling in situ chemical modification of polymers while they are conveyed and melted. By integrating ...

Real-time visibility into polymer melt viscosity during the extrusion process results in improved quality of the end product and minimizes material waste. However, existing monitoring technologies ...

While countless tubes are extruded or injection molded each year, these manufacturing techniques are neither the most optimal nor the most cost-effective methods available to medical device ...
