The President of Polydynamics Inc., and Professor Emeritus of McMaster University, Dr. John Vlachopoulos will present his 67^th  INTERNATIONAL INTENSIVE SHORT COURSE ON POLYMER RHEOLOGY AND EXTRUSION on APRIL, 19-20, 2012 in BRUSSELS, BELGIUM. This course will include detailed presentations on unusual rheological phenomena, shear viscosity, melt flow index, melt strength, extensional (elongational) viscosity, relations to molecular structure, viscoelasticity, normal stresses, G' and G'', rheology of composites, mixing of polymers, frictional heating, extrudate swell (die swell), die lip build-up (die drool), sharkskin, melt fracture, solids conveying in single screw extruders, melting, drag flow, surging phenomena, instabilities, weldlines, flow lines, gels, troubleshooting, identifications of root causes of extrusion defects and much more.
