Flow analysis of profile extrusion is essential for design and production of a profile extrusion die. Velocity, pressure, and temperature distribution in an extrusion die are predicted and compared with the experimental results. A two dimensional numerical method is proposed for three dimensional analysis of the flow field within the profile extrusion die by applying a modified cross-sectional numerical method. Since the cross-sectional shape of the die is varied gradually, it is assumed that the pressure is constant within a cross-sectional plane that is perpendicular to the flow direction. With this assumption, the velocity component in the cross-sectional direction is neglected. The exact cross-sectional shape at any position is calculated based on the geometry of standard cross-sections. The momentum and energy equations are solved with proper boundary conditions at a cross-section and then the same calculation is carried out for the next cross-section using the current calculated values. An L-shaped profile extrusion die is produced and employed for experimental investigation using a commercially available polypropylene. Numerical prediction for the varying cross-sectional shape provides better results than the previous studies and is in good agreement with the experimental results.  相似文献

Design of the wide coat-hanger die is of significant importance for melt blowing system because the die plays a key role in the uniformity wider nonwoven webs. In this article, a mathematical method combining finite element and numerical simulation is used to optimize double coat-hanger die with uniform outlet velocity. A numerical approach is developed for design of double coat-hanger die with quadratic geometry manifold. The results indicate that melt flow direction in the manifold is along its lengthwise direction and the CV value of outlet velocity is decreased obviously. In addition, a 40:3 elliptic rate of ellipse cavity is inserted in the double coat-hanger die slot. It shows that the ellipse cavity and slot act together to improve flow distribution and pressure drop. The result of outlet velocity CV value is under 1 % for 3.4 meter width of double coat-hanger die. The current study provides a simple method to obtain wider coat-hanger die suitable for melt blowing commercial production.  相似文献

Epoxy resin containing bromine compound was melt blended with PET to obtain flame retardant polymer. The blend product was characterized by DSC, SEM, intrinsic viscosity and melt index measurements. The reaction between the epoxy group of DGEBBA (diglycidyl ether of brominated bisphenol A) and the carboxyl (or hydroxyl) end group of PET led to cross-linking of PET chains, and the intrinsic viscosity and melt index (MI) were increased in the range of equivalent amount of epoxy resin (within 1 %). DSC data revealed that the epoxy resin was not located in the crystalline region but was appeared in the amorphous region of PET matrix. Good miscibility of epoxy resin resulted in the decrease of crystallization temperature and glass transition temperature of PET. The blend was spun into fiber without any problems such as swelling or draw resonance, however, the mechanical properties were decreased as the amount of the DGEBBA was increased.  相似文献

By melt spinning of incompatible polymer blends, the deformation of the dispersed phase was investigated in the fiber spinning process, for polypropylene/polystyrene (PP/PS) blend fiber and low density polyethylene/polyamide 6 (LDPE/PA6) blend fiber, respectively. Two kinds of the take-up fiber all exhibit the matrix fibrillar morphology, but with the opposite morphology. For PP/PS take-up fiber, the dispersed PS fibrils were finer in the core than near the surface. On the contrary, the dispersed PA6 fibrils were finer near the surface than in the core for LDPE/PA6 take-up fiber. However, for the special fiber in which the extensional flow was absent, there was the uniform morphology in either PP/PS or LDPE/PA6. Thus, fibrils’ non-uniform deformation, occurred in the drawing process, was considered to be due to the radial non-uniform processing conditions across the spin-line cross-section. The distribution of fibrils’ diameter was also investigated on the whole cross section. Rheological properties of each component were measured by the capillary rheometer. The non-uniform phase structure in blend fiber is a new phenomenon in the extensional flow.  相似文献

Several restrictions which are related to extruder machinery and nature of process material exist in the design of plastic extrusion dies. To this respect, it is very important to consider design criteria and limitations in order to operate extrusion dies at desired production rate and temperature. In the current study, flow field characteristics through a conical spiral mandrel die are analysed in detail by 3D Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations. The effects of operating conditions such as production rate and temperature on pressure drop through the spiral mandrel die and the occurence of melt fracture are investigated. The temperature dependent viscosity versus shear rate data for grade QB79P (CarmelTech) polypropylene (PP) melt under study are measured by use of rotational and capillary rheometers. Stress terms in the momentum equations are modeled by Generalized Newtonian Fluid (GNF) Model. For this, Bird-Carreau Model is employed as the viscosity model for the polymer melt. 3D CFD analyses provide comprehensive data and understanding with regard to flow behaviour through complex extrusion dies.  相似文献

In this study, the design and construction of an extrusion equipment with spinning fiber devices has been developed to produce polyester fiber from virgin and recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Several operating parameters (i.e., pressure, temperature, feed flow rate, extrusion speed and extruder design) have been analyzed to identify the best process conditions. In particular, this study has focused on a detailed analysis for the processing of recycled raw material for polyester textile fiber applications considering the variability of the process and identifying alternatives to minimize the impact on the quality parameters such as the fiber diameter and mechanical specifications. The experimental results were compared with the values calculated using a theoretical model, which has been developed for these particular cases. The mathematical analysis of the mass flow showed a very good agreement with respect to the experimental data, where there was a percentage difference < 3 %. It was found that the fiber diameter is a function of intrinsic viscosity (VI) or melt flow index (MFI). Finally, the mechanical properties of the fibers were evaluated and results indicated that the fiber with higher average molecular weight showed higher tenacity and lower Young’s modulus values.  相似文献

Residual stresses were predicted by a flow analysis in the mold cavity and residual stress distribution in the injection molded product was measured. Flow field was analyzed by the hybrid FEM/FDM method, using the Hele Shaw approximation. The Modified Cross model was used to determine the dependence of the viscosity on the temperature and the shear rate. The specific volume of the polymer melt which varies with the pressure and temperature fields was calculated by the Tait’s state equation. Flow analysis results such as pressure, temperature, and the location of the liquid-solid interface were used as the input of the stress analysis. In order to calculate more accurate gap-wise temperature field, a coordinate transformation technique was used. The residual stress distribution in the gap-wise direction was predicted in two cases, the free quenching and the constrained quenching, under the assumption that the shrinkage of the injection molded product occurs within the mold cavity and that the solid polymer is elastic. Effects of the initial flow rate, packing pressure, and mold temperature on the residual stress distribution was discussed. Experimental results were also obtained by the layer removal method for molded polypropylene.  相似文献

Zn phosphinate, organo-modified sepiolite and poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) have been melt blended to develop a new flame retardant system for PET plastics and textiles. The combination of Zn phosphinate and sepiolite have been exploited in order to enhance the flame retardancy of PET for both plastics and textiles. The thermal stability of PET blends evaluated by thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry results remarkably affected by the loaded fillers. The combustion tests by cone calorimetry reveal a relevant decrease of combustion rate and a high increase of fire performance index for both plastics and textiles due to the presence of this novel flame retardant mixture. Analogously, limiting oxygen index has been found increased in a remarkable way.  相似文献

The thermal behavior, morphology, ester-interchange reaction of Poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (PTT)/Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) melt blends were investigated over the whole composition range(xPTT/(1-x)PET) using a twinscrew Brabender. The melt blends were analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (13C-NMR), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Single glass transition temperature (T g ) and cold crystallization temperature (T cc ) were observed in all melt blends. Melt blends were found to be due to the ester-interchange reaction in PTT/PET blend. Also the randomness of copolymer increases because transesterification between PTT and PET increases with increasing blending time. This reaction increases homogeneity of the blends and decreases the degree of crystallinity of the melt blends. In PTT-rich blends, mechanical properties decrease with increase of PET content compared with that of pure PTT. And, in PET-rich blends, tensile modulus decreases with increase of PTT content, but tensile strength and elongation is similar to that of pure PET.  相似文献

Melt blowing is a major process for producing nanofibrous nonwovens. Compared to another technology for producing nanofibrous nonwovens, electrospinning, melt blowing applies high-speed air flow field to attenuate the extruded polymer jet. It is known that the essential electrospinning mechanism is a rapidly whipping jet in an electric field. While there are few studies on the fiber whipping in the melt-blowing process. In this study, a high-speed camera was used to capture the fiber path below a single-orifice melt-blowing swirl die. The spiral path of the fiber was revealed. The characteristics of the whipping amplitude, whipping frequency, and the fiber velocity were obtained. Fiber diameter reduction ratio contributed by the spiral path was calculated by establishing a mathematical model. The study indicates that spiral path of the whipping plays an important role in fiber attenuation near the die.  相似文献

Electron beam irradiation grafting of acrylic acid (AAc), acrylamide (AAm), and dimethyl vinylphosphonate (DMVP) onto poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) fabrics was performed using a high-energy electron accelerator. Parameters affecting the graft polymerization of PET fabrics, including absorbed dose and monomer concentration, were investigated. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis confirmed that the monomers were grafted onto the PET fabrics. The thermal behavior of the grafted PET fabrics was investigated with thermogravimetric analysis. Findings showed that grafting with AAm could improve the thermal stability of PET. The limiting oxygen index values and vertical flammability test results showed that PET fabric graft-polymerized with AAc could improve the flammability and prevent melt dripping. Grafting with AAm and DMVP could improve the flame retardation property of PET fabric. Scanning electron micrographs showed that the surface morphology of the PET fabric samples was significantly influenced by graft polymerization, and that grafting with AAc could promote the formation of residual char and impart an anti-dripping quality to PET fabrics.  相似文献

Melt blowing is a one-step approach for manufacturing microfibrous nonwovens. In slot-die melt blowing, a pair of air jets with high velocity and temperature is applied on the polymer and attenuates the polymer in to fibers. The fiber motion which was called vibration or whipping plays a crucial role in expressing the drag mechanism. In this study, an improved Lagrangian numerical approach was utilized to simulate the fiber whipping in melt blowing. The fiber whipping simulated in this study was significantly improved compared to other previous works. Meanwhile, the fiber diameter, fiber velocity and fiber temperature below the spinneret were simulated. The numerical simulation indicated that the most attenuation of fiber diameter occurred within 0.07 m below the spinneret; the fiber velocity increased gradually while the air velocity decreased rapidly along the spinning line, and the fiber velocity exceeded the air velocity where below a critical z-position; In addition, the fiber temperature decreased tardier than the decreasing of air temperature. This study illustrated that it was important to optimal design the air flow field which was supposed to fully utilize the air velocity and temperature together. In addition, the energy saving of melt blowing deserved to be taken into consideration.  相似文献

Injection molding is one of the most popular manufacturing methods for the cost-effective mass production of the plastic parts. Filling analysis of the molten polymer provides useful information to investigate the process conditions to ensure successful replication. To validate appropriate gate location for a NEEDLE COVER, flow fronts and flow stresses for four different gating options and three different design options are analyzed and compared to the field results. Based on the results, the optimum gate location for the minimum flow stresses and uniform fill patterns appears to be at gate 3. Thus it also provides minimum possibility of part warpage throughout PORT HOUSING and NEEDLE HOUSING. The results of analysis on the increased wall thickness, lower melt temperature, and longer injection time indicated that higher melt temperatures were recommended to achieve successful molding. Injecting the polymer at a longer time (1.2 second) leads to a significant increase in flow stresses throughout the part and the increase of wall thickness achieve successful replication of the parts.  相似文献

Poly(ethylene terephthalate) [PET] based nanocomposites containing three differently modified silica particles were prepared by melt compounding. The influence of type of nano-silica on dispersibility, thermal and dyeing properties of the resultant nanocomposite was investigated by various analytic techniques, namely, polarized optical microscopy (POM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), reflectance spectroscopy (RS), and light fastness. Optical microscopy images illustrated that nano-silica particles tended to increase the number of spherulites in the PET matrix which were dependent on nano-silica type and content. Thermal studies of the resultant nanocomposites showed a slight decrease in the melting temperature compared to a pristine PET. Silica nanocomposites were finally dyed with a disperse dye and their reflectances were determined by the aid of reflectance spectrophotometer. Such reflectances were converted to the corresponding color coordinate values which are indicative of dyeability of such nanocomposites.  相似文献

The effects of graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) and multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) hybrid nanofillers on the mechanical and thermal properties of reinforced polyethylene terephthalate (PET) have been investigated. The nanocomposites were melt blended using the counter rotating twin screw extruder followed by injection molding. Their morphology, mechanical and thermal properties were characterized. Combination of the two nanofillers in composites formulation supplemented each other which resulted in the overall improvement in adhesion between fillers and matrix. The mechanical properties and thermal stability of the hybrid nanocomposites (PET/GNP1.5/MWCNT1.5) were significantly improved compared to PET/GNP3 and PET/MWCNT3 single filer nanocomposites. However, it was observed that GNP was better in improving the mechanical properties but MWCNT resulted in higher thermal stability of Nanocomposite. The transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) revealed uniform dispersion of the hybrid fillers in PET/GNP1.5/MWCNT1.5 nanocomposites while agglomeration was observed at higher filler content. The MWCNT prevented the phenomenal stacking of the GNPs by forming a bridge between adjacent GNP planes resulting in higher dispersion of fillers. This complimentary geometrical structure is responsible for the significant improvement in the thermal stability and mechanical properties of the hybrid nanocomposites.  相似文献

To determine three-dimensional fiber orientation states in injection-molded short fiber composites a CLSM (Confocal Laser Scanning Microscope) is used. Since the CLSM optically sections the composites, more than two cross-sections either on or below the surface of the composite can be obtained. Three dimensional fiber orientation states can be determined with geometric parameters of fibers on two parallel cross-sections. For experiment, carbon fiber reinforced polystyrene is examined by the CLSM. Geometric parameters of fibers are measured by image analysis. In order to compactly describe fiber orientation states, orientation tensors are used. Orientation tensors are determined at different positions of the prepared specimen. Three dimensional orientation states are obtained without the difficulty in determining the out-of-plane angles by utilizing images on two parallel planes acquired by the CLSM. Orientation states are different at different positions and show the shell-core structure along the thickness of the specimen.  相似文献

Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET)/CaCO3 and PET/modified-CaCO3 (m-CaCO3) nanocomposites were prepared by melt blending. The morphology indicated that m-CaCO3 produced by reacting sodium oxalate and calcium chloride, was well dispersed in PET matrix and showed good interfacial interaction with PET compared to CaCO3. No significant differences in the thermal properties such as, glass transition, melting and degradation temperatures, of the nanocomposites were observed. The thermal shrinkage of PET at 120 °C was 10.8 %, while those of PET/CaCO3 and PET/m-CaCO3 nanocomposites were 2.9–5.2 % and 1.2–2.8 %, respectively depending on filler content. The tensile strength of PET/CaCO3 nanocomposite decreased with CaCO3 loading, whereas that of PET/m-CaCO3 nanocomposites at 0.5 wt% loading showed a 17 % improvement as compared to neat PET. The storage modulus at 120 °C increased from 1660 MPa for PET to 2350 MPa for PET/CaCO3 nanocomposite at 3 wt% loading, and 3230 MPa for PET/m-CaCO3 nanocomposite at 1 wt% loading.  相似文献

Profiles development of the melt spinning process of poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (PTT) was simulated by a numerical method. The spinning speed of 3 km/min to 5 km/min was analyzed and the characteristic of PTT spinning process was compared with that of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET). Velocity development of PTT was slower than that of PET. Although PTT’s spinning temperature was lower than PET’s, the PTT solidified slower because of a smaller super-cooling and the large specific heat capacity. The diameter profile of PTT decreases gradually in comparison with that of PET. PTT’s strain rate has a broader distribution than PET’s and its maximum ranged from 541 to 570 s−1 for PET and 136 to 149 s−1 for PTT. PTT’s tensile stress was smaller than PET’s.  相似文献

In order to investigate effects of injection molding conditions on viscoelastic behavior and thermal deformation of film insert molded (FIM) parts, injection molding was performed with various conditions such as injection speed, melt temperature, and packing time. It was shown that variation of the warpage was decreased monotonically with increasing injection speed and exhibited a bell-shaped curve as a function of melt temperature. Warpage variation was not affected by the packing time significantly and the proportional relationship between warpage of the film insert molded part and shrinkage of the injection molded part without film was observed. The FIM specimens produced with unannealed films showed the warpage reversal phenomenon (WRP) during annealing and the magnitude of reversed warpage was affected significantly by the injection parameters and the extent of thermal shrinkage of the unannealed film. Warpage of the FIM specimen was predicted by three dimensional numerical flow and stress analyses and the predicted values showed a good agreement with the experimental results.  相似文献

A durable aroma finishing for PET fabric was carried out by adopting poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) nanoparticles containing lavender oil (LO) in core. Relatively small size of PVAc nanoparticles (ca. 244 nm of mean particle diameter) was expected to resist the frictional destruction of the particles, which is frequently observed in cases of microcapsules. PVAc nanoparticles containing LO in core were prepared by emulsification-diffusion method and their application as an aroma releasing agent for PET fabrics was assessed through the observation of releasing profiles of LO in ethanol for experimental acceleration. Melamine-formaldehyde (MF) microcapsules containing LO were also prepared and treated on fabrics for comparison. PVAc nanoparticles treated on PET fabric showed higher initial releasing amount, which was ascribed to the enhanced surface area. After 2 days of releasing, PET fabric treated with PVAc nanoparticles showed slower and more stable releasing profile and reached about 12 ppm of cumulative release after 16 days, which was under two thirds of that with MF microcapsules. PVAc nanoparticles can be used as an agent for durable aroma finishing of PET fabrics.  相似文献
