Besides the main depolymerization reactions, side reactions should also be considered in the kinetic description of a PET recycling process. This is emphasized by the results obtained from a PET extrusion model [85] shown in Figures 2.19-2.23. The complete set of reactions summarized below in Table 2.10 have been used, but shear effects have not been taken into account. Chain degradation, accompanied by a significant reduction of intrinsic viscosity, occurs even within residence times of a few minutes. Carboxyl end groups, vinyl end groups and acetaldehyde are formed in amounts depending on residence time, temperature and initial moisture content of the PET flakes. 

In order to simulate an extrusion process or design a screw, the mathematical description of the screw geometry must be understood. This section provides the basic details that describe a screw and the complex mathematics that describe the channels. 

Performing numerical simulations of the extrusion process requires that the shear viscosity be available as a function of shear rate and temperature over the operating conditions of the process. Many models have been developed, and the best model for a particular application will depend on the rheological response of the resin and the operating conditions of the process. In other words, the model must provide an acceptable viscosity for the shear rates and temperatures of the process. The simple models presented here include the power law. Cross, and Carreau models. An excellent description of a broad range of models was presented previously by Tadmor and Gogos [4].

Thermoplastic extrusion technology has been used to texturize many defatted vegetable protein ingredients, and produce many fibrous structures and meat-like textures. Such processes have been used extensively to prepare meat analogs (1, which have found their widest application in formulation of foods for institutional markets (3). A primary disclosure of extrusion texturization of vegetable proteins was made by Atkinson ( ). General descriptions of various extrusion processes have also been reported (1, 5-14). ... 

A few patents have been issued covering the use of screw presses [39], but they do not include details of the design of the presses. However these do not differ from the screw presses widely used for extrusion of plastic rods, tubes and other shapes. A detailed description of the screw presses used in plastics technology can be found in monographs [40, 41]. A diagrammatic representation of a screw press is given in Fig. 266. 

General descriptions of the cold working process are given in Refs 3, 4, 5, 6 7. Its modification known as impact extrusion has been used mostly for shaping nonferrous metals (Ref 11), but can be used also for iron or steel... 

Flow through a slit head has been studied also in polymers using the power-function flow principle (Ostwald-de Villes model). Some of the first works in this field were carried out in 1967-1968 by N. V. Tyabin et al.21,22). Tests were arranged with molten polyethylene in an extrusion head having a rotary conic core. The divergence between theory and experiment was comparatively significant which, apparently, is accounted for, primarily, by the basence of a necessary similarity between the conducted experiment and the theoretical description of the flow in a flat slit. 

Extrusions are the reverse of migratory insertion reactions. These are a- and -eliminations, decarbonylations, and fragmentations of metallacycles with more than five members. Their general descriptions are given in Table II by Reactions 13 through 17. The evaluation table is given by Matrix 7.

Since the Navier s slip hypothesis of the last century, most experiments have failed to obtain positive evidence for a slip boundary condition on macroscopic scales in low molar mass liquids. However, Navier s notion of slip turns out to be extremely useful and convenient for the latest description of flow anomalies of highly entangled polymer melts including linear polyethylenes (LPE). The ability of a melt/solid interface to possess two profoundly different states as shown by Fig. 4a,b clearly reveals the potential role of interfacial slip in governing various melt flow phenomena in high pressure extrusion. Before reviewing recent experimental studies that have elucidated the molecular origins of different flow... 

In conclusion, it may be useful to highlight our current explanations for the first three types of extrudate distortion (sharkskin, oscillation and spirals) in polymer extrusion in a tabulated manner. In Table 2, using the example of linear polyethylenes, we not only list their molecular origins but their description from... 

The final product may take any one of a vast multitude of final forms. These include, but are not limited to, construction materials, toys, automotive parts, kitchen aids, industrial parts, sports and recreational equipment, containers of all sizes and description, and an unlimited variety of packaging products for foods, drugs, cosmetics, and other consumer products. The processes that are used to produce or mold or fabricate the final products are also varied and depend on the design and purpose of the product. Some of these processes include extrusion, compression molding, roto-molding, blow molding, sheeting, and films.
