Co-extrusion is commonly used to produce polymer multilayer products with different materials tailoring the property profiles. Adhesion between the individual layers is crucial to the overall performance of the final structure. Layer adhesion is determined by the compatibility of the polymers at the interface and their interaction forces, causing for example the formation of adhesive or chemical bonds or an interdiffusion layer. Additionally, the processing conditions, such as temperature, residence time, cooling rate, and interfacial shear stress, have a major influence on the interactions and hence resulting layer adhesion. Influences of temperature and residence time are already quite well studied, but influence of shear load on the formation of an adhesion layer is less explored and controversially discussed in existing literature. In this work, we investigated the influence of different processing conditions causing various shear loads on layer adhesion for a two-layer co-extruded polymer sheet using a polypropylene and polypropylene talc compound system. Therefore, we varied the flow rates and the flow geometry of the die. Under specific conditions interfacial flow instabilities are triggered that form micro layers in the transition regime between the two layers causing a major increase in layer adhesion. This structure was analyzed using confocal Raman microscopy. Making use of these interfacial flow instabilities in a controlled way enables completely new opportunities and potentials for multi-layer products. |
