Degradation during PLA twin-screw extrusion granulation
Problembeschreibung
Severe degradation and molecular weight decrease occur during PLA recycling granulation.
Ursachenanalyse
The twin-screw shear is strong and the temperature is high, and PLA degrades quickly, especially when it contains moisture, hydrolysis and pyrolysis act together.
Lösung
Use a low-shear screw configuration; strictly control the temperature at 160-180°C; fully dry the waste material.
Wichtigste Erkenntnis
PLA granulation is a technical difficulty for recycling.
