Melt breakage during extrusion

Problem Phenomenon
Melt breakage during extrusion, the product cannot be continuously formed, production interrupted
Cause Analysis
Extrusion temperature too low (below the lower limit of 170-230°C), insufficient melt strength Poor screw plasticization, discontinuous melt Raw material moisture content exceeds standard Screen pack blocked Haul-off speed too fast, tensile breakage
Solution
Increase the extrusion temperature to the 170-230°C range Ensure continuous screw plasticization Fully dry the raw material Replace the screen pack Appropriately reduce the haul-off speed
Key Takeaway
Extrusion breakage requires increasing temperature and ensuring continuous plasticization
