Abstract

An option to modernize the worm of the strand extrusion machine is proposed. The technical solution of this worm of the string extrusion machine is the improvement of the mixing section of the extruder worm, which is located in the gap of the screw line in the homogenization zone of the extruder. This design of the mixing section of the worm of the strand extrusion machine allows to intensify the process of dispersion of agglomerates and mixing of the dispersed phase in the dispersed medium and as a result to obtain a homogeneous structure of the polymer, which in turn allows to improve the quality of the final product.
