AN EXTRUDER MIXING ELEMENT

摘要

A dispersive mixing element for co-rotating twin screw extruder is disclosed. The element for co-rotating twin screw extruder comprises of a continuous flight helically formed thereon having a lead 'L', wherein either the flight transforms at least once from an integer lobe flight into a non-integer lobe flight in a fraction of the lead 'L' and transforms back to an integer lobe flight in a fraction of the lead 'L' or the flight transforms at least once from a non-integer lobe flight into an integer lobe flight in a fraction of the lead 'L' and transforms back to a non-integer lobe flight in a fraction of the lead 'L'.
