Improper processing temperature window selection of polyolefin plastomer polyolefin plastomer (Variant: strengthened measures)
Problem Phenomenon
The barrel or die head temperature setting is unreasonable, resulting in poor plasticizing quality, degradation or incomplete melting of the material.
Temperature window selection directly affects melt quality and final product performance.
Especially on the original basis, additional attention is needed, and this problem is more prominent and requires key attention.
Cause Analysis
(1) Temperature setting too low, melt viscosity high and plasticization insufficient
(2) Temperature setting too high, material thermally degraded and molecular weight reduced
(3) Unreasonable temperature distribution of each section, feeding section temperature too high or plasticizing section temperature too low
(4) Material grade differences and MFR changes not considered
(5) Ambient temperature changes not adjusted in time
(6) On the original basis, additional attention is needed: process parameter fluctuations or equipment state changes aggravate this problem
Solution
(1) Reasonably set the temperature range according to polyolefin plastomer characteristics: 180-230°C
(2) Barrel temperature gradually increases from feeding section to homogenizing section, but does not exceed the upper limit temperature
(3) Regularly calibrate the actual barrel temperature with a thermometer or infrared temperature gun
(4) Test MFR of each batch of raw material and fine-tune temperature as needed
(5) Establish standardized process parameter cards to reduce manual operation differences
(6) And strengthen process monitoring; on the original basis, additional attention is needed, paying special attention to parameter stability
Key Takeaway
Temperature window selection is the basis of processing and needs to be set reasonably according to material characteristics and actual operating experience.
Targeted preventive measures need to be taken in different production scenarios.
