POLYFLOW Thermoforming (Non-Isothermal)

Test ID  
G-321

    
Description  
Properties needed to perform a thermoforming simulation are generated. Measurements of visco-elastic data (G' and G" vs. frequency) at three temperatures spanning the processing range, along with properties required for heat transfer calculations (melt thermal conductivity, specific heat, melt density), preferably taken in the cooling mode. KBKZ model fitting for Polyflow is performed.
