Abstract
The first consideration in the design of a flat extrusion die system to convert polypropylene (PP) feed stocks is to determine the design and processing parameters for the final extruded product(s). The basic parameters that have to be defined are the final product width if the final product is a monolayer or coextruded structure, the thickness range, the polymer(s) rheology, the processing temperature range and the desired through-put range.
