摘要
An experimental correlation between the non-linear behaviour of commercial polyethylene melts in LAOS flow, and the pressure fluctuations associated with melt flow instabilities developed in capillary rheometry are presented. Polyethylene melts with enhanced non-linear behaviour under LAOS conditions present larger pressure fluctuations during capillary extrusion, and consequently, larger surface distortions on the extrudate. The combination of both methods can be a tool to predict the development of melt flow instabilities in the extrusion process of polyethylene melts, and can elucidate their correlation with material structural properties ((M) over bar (W), MWD and topology).
