Melt viscosity of a polypropylene (PP) resin was measured in a capillary rheometer between 220 and 260°C. The melt viscosity showed a power law behavior with strong shear rate dependence. The effects of temperature and shear rate on the degradation were studied in the rheometer by heating at 260 and 280°C, and extruding at shear rates up to 10000 sec -1 . Melt flow index (MFI) of samples after shearing and heating treatment was measured to characterize the molecular weight change. An increase in MFI was found for PP sheared at high temperature. Heating for longer time also increased MFI. Increase of shear rate had a small effect on increasing MFI at 260°C but produced a larger effect at 280°C. A constant increment in MFI was observed in PP subjected to high temperature processing and was attributed to degradation due to oxygenated products. |
