Pellet extrusion is under increasing pressure to reduce energy use and material waste while maintaining consistent pellet ...

The equal channel angular extrusion (ECAE) process has emerged as a versatile technique to enhance the microstructure and mechanical properties of polymers. Through severe plastic deformation, ECAE ...

A presentation at the Leistritz Pharmaceutical-Nutraceutical Extrusion Seminar explained how simulation tools benefit the development process. Twin-screw extruders (TSE) are used in multiple ...

Guill Tool, an extrusion tooling company, has expanded its lab capabilities to better serve the global extrusion market with ...

Aluminum is particularly well suited to the extrusion process due to its excellent plasticity at extrusion temperature. Only a minor degree of work-hardening takes place at this temperature and ...

A new extrusion process could make it more feasible for the automotive industry to incorporate magnesium alloys into structural components. Magnesium is 75 per cent lighter than steel, 33 per cent ...

Graphite sheets that are rolled into seamless tubes are called carbon nanotubes. With diameters of just a few nanometers and lengths up to centimeters, carbon nanotubes have received a great deal of ...
