Polymer Melt Fracture - Koopmans, Rudy (Dow Europe GmbH, Horgen, Switzerland) a Den Doelder, Jaap (Dow Benelux B.V., Terneuzen, The Netherlands) a Molenaar, Jaap (Biometris – Wageningen University and Research Centre, Wageningen, The Netherlands)

Developing ways to avoid melt fracture has occupied researchers since polymers were first introduced. This work includes both basic nonmathematical information as well as sophisticated mathematically based derivatives for modeling. It presents simple tools and approaches to solve many melt fracture issues.
