MP Surface Snakeskin Pattern
Problem Phenomenon
Snakeskin-like irregular texture on the surface of MP extruded products
Cause Analysis
Extrusion temperature too low with non-uniform melt elastic recovery; uneven die temperature distribution
Solution
1) Increase extrusion temperature to the processing temperature range; 2) Homogenize die temperature to ±2°C; 3) Reduce extrusion rate to reduce elastic recovery
Key Takeaway
Snakeskin pattern is caused by low-temperature extrusion and elastic recovery; increasing temperature and reducing speed are key
