EVOH Performance Degradation After Repeated Processing
Fenómeno do problema
After 3-4 recycling and reprocessing cycles, EVOH tensile strength decreases by 25-30%
Análise das causas
Molecular chains break and degrade under repeated high-temperature shearing; antioxidants are completely consumed during multiple processing cycles; cumulative effect of thermo-mechanical degradation
Solução
1) Recycled material ratio not exceeding 20-30%; 2) Supplement 0.1-0.2wt% antioxidant at each re-extrusion; 3) Reduce processing temperature by 5-10°C; 4) Reduce screw speed to decrease shear
Conclusão principal
Performance degradation from multiple processing is caused by thermo-mechanical degradation; limiting regrind and supplementing antioxidant is key
