PLA Lactic Acid Smoke Precipitation
Fenómeno del problema
There is sour-smelling smoke in the PLA extrusion workshop, and white substance condenses on the cooling roll and die head surfaces
Análisis de la causa
PLA high-temperature degradation generates lactic acid monomer through intramolecular transesterification, forming lactic acid smoke; lactic acid vapor condenses and precipitates on equipment surfaces, contaminating products and corroding equipment
Solución
①Lower the processing temperature to reduce lactic acid generation; ②Strengthen workshop and die head exhaust; ③Regularly clean the condensate on cooling rolls and die head; after adjustment, take continuous samples to verify the effect, and resume mass production only after confirming stability
Conclusión clave
Lactic acid smoke is a visual signal of PLA degradation; cooling, exhaust, and cleaning in a three-pronged approach protect personnel and products; after confirming effectiveness, fix the parameters and practices into the work instruction to prevent recurrence
