Pre-crosslinking in cross-linked polyethylene XLPE extrusion process (Variant: strengthened measures)
Fenómeno del problema
During XLPE extrusion, the material pre-crosslinks in the screw or die head, producing gel particles and clogging the die head.
Pre-crosslinking causes extrusion difficulty, rough product surface and even scorched particles.
Especially on the original basis, additional attention is needed, and this problem is more prominent and requires key attention.
Análisis de la causa
(1) Extrusion temperature too high, exceeding the peroxide decomposition temperature
(2) Material residence time in the extruder too long
(3) Improper screw design, stagnation dead corners exist
(4) Peroxide decomposition temperature and processing temperature window narrow
(5) Screw rotation speed too high, shear heat generation aggravates pre-crosslinking
(6) On the original basis, additional attention is needed: process parameter fluctuations or equipment state changes aggravate this problem
Solución
(1) Strictly control extrusion temperature within 170-200°C, must not exceed 200°C
(2) Reduce material residence time in the barrel
(3) Optimize screw design, eliminate stagnation dead corners
(4) Select peroxide varieties with moderate decomposition temperature
(5) Reduce screw rotation speed to 30-60rpm to reduce shear heat generation
(6) And strengthen process monitoring; on the original basis, additional attention is needed, paying special attention to parameter stability
Conclusión clave
Pre-crosslinking is the most common process problem in XLPE processing; the key is to strictly control the temperature not to exceed the peroxide decomposition temperature.
Targeted preventive measures need to be taken in different production scenarios.
