Using Optical Image Real-Time Analysis Software to Characterize Polymer Processing

Abstract:

A special optical approach for the study of polymer melts in a slit die is presented in this article. A light scattering imaging system, which is the most suitable for digital evaluation of flow field of polymer melts, is put forward. Bright image of polymer melts against in dark slit die which is suitable for binary processing can be obtained by the CCD. Optical image real-time processing software for recording light intensity matrix at different screw rotate speed and for computing maximum intensity projection area has been developed. And the relationship between maximum intensity projection area and vibration frequency can be predicted by the software. The technique allows the visualization of the light scattered by optical image real-time analysis software to characterize polymer processing. The software brought the qualitative analysis of the flow field of polymer melts success.
