CPE Melt Fracture Causing Surface Defects
Problem Phenomenon
Periodic irregular wrinkles on extrusion and injection surfaces
Cause Analysis
Die exit shear stress exceeds the critical value, causing elastic instability
Solution
Reduce extrusion speed, raise die temperature, and increase the gap
Key Takeaway
A typical rheological problem in extrusion processing
