Optimization of process parameters in polymer extrusion is an important task to reduce manufacturing cost. To determine the optimum values of the process parameters, it is essential to find their influence on the strength of polymer breathable thin film. The significance of six important process parameters namely, extruder cylinder temperature, extruder speed, extruder dies temperature, cooling roll temperature, stretching ratio, stretching roll temperature on breathable film strength of polymer extrusion was determined. Moreover, this paper presents the application of Taguchi method and analysis of variance (ANOVA) for maximization of the breathable film strength influenced by extrusion parameters. The optimum parameter combination of extrusion process was obtained by using the analysis of signal-to-noise ratio. The conclusion revealed that extruder speed and stretching ratio were the most influential factor on the film strength, respectively. The best results of film strength were obtained at higher extruder speed and stretching ratio.

Multilayer co-extrusion blown film construction is a popular technique for producing plastic films for various packaging industries. Automated detection of defective films can improve the quality of film production process. In this paper, we propose a film inspection system that can detect and classify film defects robustly. In our system, first, film images are acquired through a high speed line-scan camera under an appropriate lighting system. In order to detect and classify film defects, an inspection algorithm is developed. The algorithm divides the typical film defects into two groups: intensity-based and texture-based. Intensity-based defects are classified based on geometric features. Whereas, to classify texture-based defects, a texture analysis technique based on local binary pattern (LBP) is adopted. Experimental results revealed that our film inspection system is effective in detecting and classifying defects for the multilayer co-extrusion blown film construction line.

Optimization of process parameters in polymer extrusion is an important task to reduce manufacturing cost. To determine the optimum values of the process parameters, it is essential to find their influence on the elongation of polymer breathable thin film. The significance of six important process parameters namely, extruder cylinder temperature, extruder speed, extruder dies temperature, cooling roll temperature, stretching ratio, stretching roll temperature on breathable film elongation of polymer extrusion was determined. Moreover, this paper presents the application of Taguchi method and analysis of variance(ANOVA) for maximization of the breathable film elongation influenced by extrusion parameters. The optimum parameter combination of extrusion process was obtained by using the analysis of signal-to-noise ratio. The conclusion revealed that stretching ratio were the most influential factor on the film elongation. The best results of film elongation were obtained at lower stretching ratio.

The tensile properties of the extruded PC film were measured in the extrusion direction and perpendicular to the extrusion direction. The measured properties were the elastic modulus and Poisson's ratio at the glass transition temperature of PC. The measured orthotropic properties of the film were used for the computer simulation of vacuum forming. In this simulation, three mold shapes were tested: dome, trapezoid, and cubic, and the vacuum was applied between the mold surface and the heated film. The stress, strain, thickness, and stretch ratio distributions of the film in different mold shapes were observed and compared. The thermoforming simulation method used in this study and the obtained results, considering the determined orthotropic properties, can be applied to the thermoforming of various three-dimensional shapes.

Studies were carried out the phenomenal observation on the effect of corona treated hotmelt laminating film in process of manufacture by 2 kinds of experiments. These are as follow: 1) In order to verify the treatment reducing value of dynes and dynes durability with the lapse of time, it was checked dynes of a pair of 4 bar discharge electrode with 9 one for 144 hr., and it show results that 9 bar discharge electrode has higher initial dynes as well as keep up 48 dynes durability long than 4 one. 2) Drawn an inference from 3 actions -Chemical-Physical-Mechanical, on laminating film in terms of SEM's observation that are the adhesive status in boundary of corona treated base film, extrusion coating hotmelt layer, and configuration of hotmelt surface after corona treated. In tandem system, EVA layers adhesion keep its stability without corona discharge treatment.

In this study, three different die geometries were selected to understand the die characteristics in the film casting extrusion processes. First, large and small-scale T-dies were numerically simulated to observe the scaled-down effect on the flow inside the dies. Second, three different dies-keyhole, linear tapper coat-hanger die (LTCD), and curved tapper coat-hanger die (CTCD)-were numerically observed and discussed according to the mass flow rate. Finally, the die exit velocity profiles and die characteristics were observed and discussed based on the power-law index for the LTCD die. These numerical simulations and numerical data will aid the optimization of the die design in industrial fields.

The vitamin C content in extruded comstarch matrix was shown to depend on extrusion process variables (barrel temperature and water content), the packaging method, and the storage period. In addition, loss rates of vitamin C under different processing conditions were calculated. Extrusion process variable were barrel temperature ($80^{\circ}C,\;90^{\circ}C,\;100^{\circ}C$ and $110^{\circ}C$), and water content (25% 30% both w/w). The vitamin C content decreased as barrel temperature increased from $80^{\circ}C$ to $110^{\circ}C$ and water content increased from 25% to 30% when either LDPE plastic film packaging or ON film vacuum packaging were employed. As barrel temperature and water content increased, vitamin C decreased in comstarch packed in either LDPE film or ON film. As temperature increased, vitamin C loss rate increased under both packaging conditions, but the loss tate was only 50% of the LDPE film packaging rate when ON film vacuum packaging was used. In conclusion, the higher the temperature, and the greater the water content, the less vitamin C was inactivated during extrusion cooking, although the loss rah of vitamin C became faster as temperature and water content rose. In conclusion, extrusion process could be applied for making vitamin C matrix to extend vitamin C preservation.
