Process for producing sheet-like structures from vinyl alcohol polymers

摘要

A sheet-like structure is produced from a vinyl alcohol polymer by a method wherein, in a self-cleaning multi-screw extruder, the polymer is mixed with a small amount of water, the mixture is melted, homogenized, devolatilized and finally extruded as a melt, and the extrudate is shaped in a conventional manner into the sheet-like structure.
