Abstract:Industrial production of nanocomposites could revolutionize the polymer industry. The NASA Goddard project Oriented Nanocomposite Extrusion (O.N.E.) is developing a process to produce desirable nanocomposites that can easily be scaled up and transferred to industry. This development uses a researchscale twin screw extruder (TSE) based at the University of Maryland. A major need for this process is a method for online characterization of the polymer composition.This project focuses on using pressure measurement… Show more
