    Notes: Fluorescence spectroscopy has been employed to monitor the mixing of polymer melts with filler material. The polymer melts were low molecular weight polybutadiene and PBAN, a terpolymer consisting of 85% butadiene, 11% acrylonitrile, 4% acrylic acid, and the filler material was aluminum oxide. To carry out the fluorescence observations, a dopant chromophore was mixed into the polymer melt at very low concentrations, 10-4 to 10-6 molar or 11 to 0.11 ppm by weight. The mixing experiments were carried out using a small laboratory mixer which had glass walls for viewing the fluorescence spectra from the dopant chromophore. Fluctuations in fluorescence intensity were observed to decrease as a function of mixing time indicating that the spatial distribution of the fluorescent chromophores was becoming more uniform. Concerning the mixing of polymer melt and filler, we hypothesize that uniform mixing of ingredients is achieved when fluorescence intensity as a function of time is constant. In order to obtain quantitative support for this hypothesis, we used a fluorescence microscope to measure fluorescence intensity and optical transmittance from microscopic regions of well-mixed and poorly mixed specimens.

    Fluorescence monitoring of twin screw extrusion (1991)
    Stamford, Conn. [u.a.] : Wiley-Blackwell

    Notes: An optical fiber probe has been constructed in order to obtain real-time measurements of fluorescence radiation during twin screw mixing and extrusion of plasticized polybutadiene and calcium carbonate particulate. The probe consists of an optical fiber bundle which was inserted along the axis of a half-inch sensor bolt, and it was used to transmit optical excitation energy to the processed material and to detect the subsequent fluorescence. The source of fluorescence radiation was a fluorescent dye which was doped into the processed ingredients at very low concentrations. Although most of our measurements were taken with the probe positioned close to the exit die, the sensor bolt can be placed in any instrumentation port along the extruder line. Experiments were carried out to measure residence time distribution, quality-of-mix, and mix concentrations as a function of processing conditions. Product mix changes in response to variations in material feed rates and screw RPM were also observed. Values of residence time were obtained by measuring the transit times for the dye to travel from an upstream injection port to the measurement probe, a distance of 63 cm. Flow instabilities, such as mat formation of the solids, were observed by noting the abrupt changes and discontinuities in the fluorescence signal.

    In-line optical monitoring of polymer injection molding (1994)
    Stamford, Conn. [u.a.] : Wiley-Blackwell

    Notes: An optical sensor, consisting of optical fibers to transmit light to and from the mold cavity, was constructed for the purpose of measuring the onset of polymer solidification during injection molding. The sensor was used to detect characteristic fluorescence radiation from a dye which had been doped into the resin at very low concentration. By measuring changes in fluorescence intensity it was possible to detect whether the state of the resin was liquid or solid. We observed that, as the resin cooled in the mold, the onset of solidification was indicated by highly characteristic and distinct changes in the fluorescence intensity/time profile. Application of the method involved the use of a calibration relationship between the fluorescence intensity and temperature of the doped polymer in order to determine the distict features which characterize the onset of solidification. Injection molding of a glass forming polymer (polystyrene) and a crystallizable polymer (polyethylene) was monitored by this technique.
