melt viscosity
3.It was shown if adding a small amount of processing assistants, the melt viscosity of PP could be obviously decreased and if blending LDPE with PP, the melt flow rate(MFR) of the blend is much higher than that of PP and LDPE and MFR of LDPE/PP is maximum when LDPE/PP is 30/70, which indicates that the flow properties of PP may be effectively improved by blending LDPE with PP.
4.This paper introduces the main properties of PP foam, the technology of extruding foam of chemically cross linked PP in one step:PP is crosslinked appropriately while plasticized in extruder, and foaming agent is decomposed at a suitable melt viscosity by controling the processing conditions, then free foaming is finished at the exit of the die and the foam is abtained.
5.A Comparison between the behaviors of PVC compounded with carboxylic ester rare earth salt (CERES) and orsanotin mercaptide respectively was made by means of Haake torque rbeometer and AG—10TA unversal testing machine, It was found that the melt viscosity of PVC/CERES blend was some greater than that of PVC/orsanotin mercaptide blend under same testing condition, which would not bring unfavourable consequences for the processing level.
