Cooling compression behavior

For example, a volume change of about 10 percent occurs when cerium is subjected to high pressures or low temperatures. Cesium s valence appears to change from about 3 to 4 when it is cooled or compressed. The low temperature behavior of cerium is complex.

In another case where the twin-screw extruder was used, the rubber and plastic were melt mixed with all ingredients in a similar manner as described in blend compositions for static vulcanizations. The product was then dumped, cooled, and granulated. The premixed granules were then fed into a twin-screw extruder where a very narrow temperature profile was maintained with a relative high compression (2 1), and the screw speed was adjusted depending on the final torque and the flow behavior of the extruded stock. The stock was cured by shear force and temperature enforced by the twin-screw extruder. The dynamically crosslinked blend was taken out in the form of a strip or solid rod to determine the... 

The model correctly simulates the qualitative behavior exhibited by the EOCN. Stress retention upon cooling after both the 125°C and 200°C cures is noted, with a decreased Ea when more fully cured. A compressive stress which relaxes out is observed on heating the partially cured resin to 200°C. Both cool-down curves exhibit curvature near the cure temperatures due to the dependency of modulus, thermal expansion, and stress relaxation on temperature, Tg, and crosslink density.
