이축압출기(twin screw extruder)를 이용하여 나일론66 압출시료를 압출횟수에 따라 제조하였다. 압출횟수에 따른 화학구조, 열적 특성, 용융지수, 결정구조, 인장특성, 충격특성 및 유변학적 특성을 FT-IR, $^1H$-NMR 용융지수 측정기, DSC, TGA, XRD, 만능시험기, Izod 시험기, 그리고 유변물성측정기를 이용하여 분석하였다. FT-IR과 $^1H$-NMR을 이용하여 확인한 결과 압출시편에서의 화학구조 변화는 확인되지 않았다. 압출횟수에 따라 분자량이 감소하는 것을 용융지수를 이용하여 확인하였으며, 열 이력이 용융온도와 분해온도에는 큰 영향을 주지 않는 것을 DSC와 TGA를 이용하여 확인하였다. 압출시편의 기계적 특성 평가결과 인장강도, 충격강도 및 탄성률은 유사한 값을 보이나, 신율의 경우 큰 폭으로 감소하였다. 유변학적 특성 측정결과 낮은 주파수에서의 복합점도 값이 압출 횟수에 따라 감소하였다. 압출시편의 G'-G" 곡선의 기울기나 형태가 변하지 않는 것으로부터 압출시편에 가교와 같은 구조변화가 크게 나타나지 않음을 알 수 있었다.

랜덤 폴리프로필렌(random polypropylene, rPP)의 무수말레인산(maleic anhydride, MAH) 반응압출에 대한 MAH 함량 및 스티렌/MAH 몰비의 영향을 고찰하기 위해 이축압출기(twin screw extruder)를 이용하여 MAH가 그라프트된 rPP(MAH-g-rPP)를 제조하였다. MAH의 함량은 0.5, 1.0, 3.0, 5.0 phr이었고, 스티렌/MAH 몰비는 0, 1, 2로 하였으며, 개시제로는 dicumyl peroxide (DCP)가 사용되었다. MAH의 그라프트 정도는 FT-IR을 이용하여 $1700cm^{-1}$ 근처에서 나타나는 카르보닐기(C = O) 신축진동 피크의 존재 여부를 통해 확인하였으며, $3000cm^{-1}$ 근처의 C-H 신축진동을 기준으로 하여 정량한 결과 그라프트 반응이 MAH 함량이 3.0 phr까지 증가하는 경향을 보여주었고, 스티렌 몰비는 1.0일 때 최적을 나타내었다. MAH-g-rPP와 MAH-g-rPP가 5.0 phr 포함된 PP/MAH-g-rPP/pulp 복합체의 열적특성, 결정화 특성 등을 시차주사열용량분석기(DSC), 열중량분석기(TGA), X-선 회절분석(XRD), 편광현미경(POM) 등을 이용하여 관찰하였다. 비등온 결정화온도는 rPP-g-MAH가 첨가되었을 때 감소하는 경향을 나타내었고, PP/MAH-g-rPP/pulp 복합체의 인장특성과 인장시험 후 파단면의 SEM을 측정한 결과, MAH 함량 1.0 wt%, 스티렌/MAH 몰비 1.0일 때 상용화제로의 역할이 가장 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 복합체의 가공성 비교를 위해 복소 점도와 전단박하(shear thinning) 정도를 동적유변측정기를 이용하여 측정하였다. 상용화제를 가지는 복합체의 경우 낮은 멱수 법칙 지수(n)를 보여주었다.

Polypropylene (PP)-layered silicate nanocomposites were developed using a new processing method involving a supercritical carbon dioxide ($scCO_2$)-assisted co-rotating twin-screw extrusion process. The nanocomposites were prepared through two step extrusion processes. In the first step, the PP/clay mixture was extruded with $CO_2$ injected into the barrel of the extruder and the resulting foamed extrudate was cooled and pelletized. In the second step, the foamed extrudate was extruded with venting to produce the final PP/clay nanocomposites without $CO_2$. In this study, organophilic-clay and polypropylene matrix were used. Maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (PP-g-MA) was used as a compatibilizer. This study focused on the effect of $scCO_2$ on the dispersion characteristics of the clays into a PP matrix and the rheological properties of the layered silicate based PP nanocomposites. The dispersion properties of clays in the nanocomposites as well as the rheological properties of the nanocomposites were examined as a function of the PP-g-MA concentration. The degree of dispersion of the clays in the nanocomposites was analyzed by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscope. Various rheological properties of the nanocomposites were measured using a rotational rheometer. In the experimental results, the $scCO_2$ assisted continuous manufacturing extrusion system was used to successfully produce the organophilic-clay filled PP nanocomposites. It was found that $scCO_2$ had a measurable effect on the clay dispersion in the polymer matrix and the melt intercalation of a polymer into clay layers.

This paper describes the physical properties of filled Nylon6 composites resin with nano-sized carbon black particle and graphite nanofibers prepared by melt extrusion method. In improving adhesions between resin and fillers, the surface of the carbon filler materials were chemically modified by thermo-oxidative treatments and followed by treatments of silane coupling agent. Crystallization temperature and rate of crystallization increased with increases in filler concentration which would act as nuclei for crystallization. The silane treatments on the filler materials showed effect of reduction in crystallization temperature, possibly from enhancement in wetting property of the surface of the filler materials. Percolation transition phenomenon at which the volume resistivity was sharply decreased was observed above 9 wt% of carbon black and above 6 wt% of graphite nanofiber. The graphite nanofibers contributed to more effectively in an increase in electrical conductivity than carbon black did, on the other hand, the silane coupling agent negatively affected to the electrical conductivity due to the insulating property of the silane. Positive temperature coefficient (PTC) phenomenon, was observed as usual in other composites, that is, temperature increase results conductivity increase. The dispersity of the fillers were excellently approached by melt extrusion of co-rotational twin screw type and it could be illustrated by X-ray diffraction and SEM.

To improve the textural properties of gluten free rice flour based products, the physicochemical and pasting properties of extruded non-waxy rice flours using extruder were investigated. The high yielding Tongil type rice variety, Hanarum was used. Hanarum rice flour was prepared by dry milling from soaked and dried rice grain. The operation conditions of twin screw extruder were 250 rpm of screw speed, $160^{\circ}C$ of barrel temperature, and 24, 27, and 30% of moisture content. Hanarum extruded rice flour (HERF) were lower in crude lipid and ash contents, but higher in crude protein than Hanarum rice flour (HRF). The color values of HERF showed significantly different (p<0.05) with different moisture contents. Water binding capacities, apparent amylose contents, and damaged starch of HERF were higher than those of HRF. Moisture contents affected water binding capacities of HERF. Solubility increased with increasing heating temperature and solubilities of HERF differed significantly (p<0.05). X-ray crystallinity was changed after extrusion cooking and that of HERF showed sharp peaks at $2{\theta}=18-20^{\circ}$. The pasting viscosities of HERF kept lower values (~ 10 RVU) constantly.

This study was performed to investigate the lipolytic effects of Portulaca oleracea L. extract in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. The Portulaca oleracea L. was extracted with extrusion method using twin-screw extruder under $58{\sim}60rpm$ screw speed, $4{\sim}5kg/hr$ feed rate, $140^{\circ}C$ extrusion temperature. The lipolytic action of Portulaca oleracea L. extract was estimated by measuring the amount of glycerol and free fatty acids (FFA) released from 3T3-L1 adipocytes and by measuring the cellular lipid content in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. The hormone sensitive lipase (HSL) mRNA level was analyzed using quantitative real-time PCR. The Portulaca oleracea L. extract at 1 to $100{\mu}g/ml$ suppressed lipid accumulation. The release of glycerol and FFA into the medium, and the mRNA level of HSL were significantly increased by the addition of Portulaca oleracea L. extract at dose-dependent manner. In conclusion, the Portulaca oleracea L. extract was suggested to have the lipolytic effect through release of lipolytic products (FFA and glycerol) of triacylglyceride to the culture medium and suppression of lipid accumulation via up-regulation of HSL gene expression in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.

We prepared polycarbonate (PC)/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) nanocomposites by co-rotating twin screw extruder at 533 K. Thermal analysis results indicate that the miscibility of PC and PMMA is enhanced by MWCNTs. Bead necklace-like morphology of PMMA-rich phase is observed in PC/PMMA/MWCNT nanocomposites with increasing PMMA weight fraction due to the bead necklace-like morphology. The tensile strength of PC/PMMA (75/25)/MWCNT (1 wt.%) nanocomposite is 3% higher than those of PC/PMMA (75/25) alloy. Suppression of die swell by MWCNT filler is observed in the melt flow of PC/PMMA/MWCNT nanocomposites during extrusion.

Linear high-density polyethylene (PE) was controlled to induce strain-hardening behavior by introducing a small amount of second component with an anisotropic structure. In order to form an anisotropic structure in the PE matrix, the polymer was extruded through a twin-screw extruder, and the structure was controlled by varying the extrusion conditions. Depending on conditions, the second component formed a film, thread and droplet structure. If the second component was kept rigid, the morphology evolution could be delayed and the second component could maintain its film or thread structure without further relaxation. In par­ticular, the second component of the thread structure made a physical network and gave rise to remarkable strain hardening behavior under high extension. This study suggests a new method that induces strain hard­ening behavior by introducing a physically networked second component into the linear polymer melt. This result is anticipated to improve the processibility of linear polymers especially when extensional flow is dominant, and to contribute to our understanding of strain hardening behavior.
