Engineers, chemists, physicists, and managerial personnel involved with plastics extrusion, applied rheology, blow molding, mixing and compounding, reactive processing, production of synthetic polymers, recycling and process equipment design and manufacturing will find this course beneficial. Some knowledge of fluid mechanics would be helpful but not essential. Engineers will gain an increased understanding of rheological behavior including the role of molecular structure and will learn some of the unique engineering problems associated with polymer extrusion. Chemists will learn about fluid flow and heat transfer involving polymers and the design, scale-up, operation and troubleshooting of process equipment. Managers will obtain an overview of the technical problems associated with plastics extrusion.
Everyone will benefit from learning problem solving techniques based on rheological characterization and polymer flow considerations.
