• Causes of Excessive Smoke During Elastomer Pelletizing And Preventive Measures in Formulation And Process

  This article discusses the causes of excessive smoke during elastomer pelletizing and the preventive measures to address the issue. Key causes of smoke include raw material quality problems (such as impurities and moisture), improper temperature control in the extruder, excessive extrusion speed, and formulation issues (e.g., low-viscosity or low-flashpoint oils). The article suggests several preventive measures, including optimizing the formulation by selecting high-temperature-resistant materials, improving pelletizing processes by controlling temperature and extrusion speed, maintaining equipment regularly, and using high-quality base materials and oils. These measures help reduce smoke formation, improve safety, and enhance pellet quality during the elastomer pelletizing process.

• Selection of Plastic Additives

  This article discusses the selection principles and specific applications of plastic additives. Additives should be chosen based on the intended purpose, ensuring they can fully perform their functions and meet the required standards and performance specifications. Various types of additives and their applications are listed, including toughening, reinforcing, flame retardant, antistatic, conductive, magnetic, thermal conductivity, heat resistance, transparency, wear resistance, insulation, and barrier properties. The selectivity of additives for different resins is also addressed, highlighting the effectiveness of red phosphorus, nitrogen-based flame retardants, nucleating agents, and glass fiber heat resistance modifiers for specific resins. For example, red phosphorus is effective for PA, PBT, and PET, while nucleating agents work well for copolymer polypropylene.

• Twin-screw Granulator Main Engine Operation Precautions And Shutdown Operation Methods

  When operating a twin-screw pelletizer, special attention must be given to the main machine to ensure stable performance. Key precautions include maintaining proper current levels, monitoring pressure sensors, and checking lubrication oil pressure. Shutdown operations fall into two categories: normal shutdown and emergency shutdown. Normal shutdown involves gradually stopping feeding, reducing screw speed, and turning off auxiliary equipment. In case of an emergency, the operator should press the emergency stop button and cut off power immediately before troubleshooting the issue.

• When Is The Best Dyeing Effect for TPE\TPR? How To Ensure Uniform Dyeing

  There are two main dyeing methods for TPE/TPR: dyeing before granulation and dyeing before molding. Dyeing before granulation ensures better color uniformity and production efficiency, while dyeing before molding offers more flexibility but may result in uneven color distribution. To achieve uniform dyeing, manufacturers should use masterbatch instead of color powder, optimize mold temperature, minimize release agent usage, and ensure high-quality raw materials. Other factors, such as injection speed and mold exhaust, also impact color consistency and should be carefully controlled.

• How To Clean The Extruder Screw!

  This article describes three extruder cleaning methods: 1.Resin Cleaning: Uses polyester or epoxy resin to clean new or used equipment, removing residual materials to prevent extrusion issues like reduced speed or color differences. 2.Disassembly and Cleaning: Involves adding washing material, stopping feeding, and disassembling the extruder to remove residual material and clean the screw and die head. 3.Fire Baking: A blowtorch is used to burn off plastic from the screw, leveraging the screw's heat to clean effectively.

• What To Do If The Die Hole of Underwater Pelletizing Is Clogged? Do These Three Things To Reduce The Frequency of Machine Cleaning

  Compared with strand pelletizing, underwater pelletizing has the advantages of better pellet quality, higher degree of automation and lower cost. However, compared with less sensitive commodity resins such as polyethylene, polypropylene or polystyrene, the risk of mold freezing is greater when producing engineering resins such as those mentioned in the previous paragraph.
