Is it possible to change PE liquidity?
Thread Content
Our factory has several film blowing machines. A few days ago, we asked the procurement department to buy materials, but they were deceived by unscrupulous sellers; we ended up purchasing a batch of HDPE with high fluidity that cannot be processed. I would like to ask if there are any additives that can reduce its fluidity
If your requirements are not high, you can try blending in other PE materials (with good flow properties) to improve the flowability
If the final product does not require high strength, you can also try lowering the extrusion temperature. A lower temperature increases the viscosity of the melt, but this may affect the overall processing speed. Buy some good ingredients and mixing them together is also a good option.
It seems the risks in this area are still quite high, right? I was careful
The additive I’m using here might be able to solve the problem. Give me your address and I’ll send you some to try
HDPE prices are not low at all! I guess it’s needed again. If a small amount of polymeric wax is added, it can also improve fluidity.
1. Consider transferring high-flow HDPE to manufacturers that produce injection-molded products； 2. When the product requirements are not high, it is possible to consider adding a small amount gradually for it to be absorbed over time.
It’s completely possible to use PE with good fluidity in combination with regular PE. If strength decreases, a three-component blend can be tried: high-fluidity PE, low-fluidity PE, and the PE whose properties need to be altered, with the proportions of these three components used to make adjustments
A simple and effective solution is to resell the wrong material and then buy the appropriate one! I’m not thinking about him anymore~~~ Hehe
Add a small amount of lubricant – that’s enough; there’s no need to make a big deal out of it. Please!
