New Methods for Solid State Extrusion of Highly Oriented Polymers.
Abstract
Techniques are reviewed and extended for solid state deformation of semicrystalline polymers. Emphasis has been placed on solid state extrusion and its variations that include coextrusion, reversible plasticizers and powder deformation. The properties of extrudates are examined in regard to anisotropy with the goals of maximum orientation, tensile properties and the efficiency of deformation. (Author)
