In Enplex ABS/PVC blends, ABS contains some a-methyl styrene and a methylmethacrylate, MMA, copolymer. An in-line screw injection machine for molding general-purpose ABS, PS and similar resins can be used. The machine should have multi-stage injection speed control unit and a cooling blower unit to control shearing... 

William Willert filed a patent on the in-line, now more commonly known as the reciprocating screw injection molding machine in 1952. In 1953 Reed Prentice Corp. was the first to use Willert s invention, building a 600-ton machine. The patent was issued in 1956. By the end of the decade almost all the injection molding machines being built were of the reciprocating screw type. 

The rheological properties of molten polymers influence many aspects of processing. In injection molding and extrusion they affect screw pumping efficiency, generation of mechanical heat, and die pressure (and hence output rate). They also influence die and mold weld lines, surface finish, product dimensions, etc.
