Degradation of plastic material is an important issue when it comes to the practical use of plastic materials.

By multiple extrusions we are able to determine how well plastic materials, recipes or blends are stabilised with regards to process conditions and further use.

Small scale laboratory extruders allow us to carry out tests with minimum quantity of material to simulate processing degradation.

We study the polymer degradation can be studied by different methods:

• Melt flow rate and colour deviations
• Molecular weight distribution
• Spectroscopy
• Chromatography
• Differential Scanning Calorimeter
• Morphology by light microscopy

The project plan and specifications will be designed together with our customer in order to ensure appropriate results.
