  Investigation of Heat Transfer for Extruded Polymers Cooled in Water

  By Rakesh Kumar, Rajnish Kumar, Osei Ofosu

  Abstract: The commodity articles from polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) are widely used in today’s world. To reduce the carbon footprint, biopolymers such as polylactic acid (PLA) as commodity plastics are also explored. Often, these polymers have to be extruded before they are fabricated for end users. The work described in this paper has been divided in two parts. In the first part PE, PP and PLA are subjected to extrusion …
