In this paper, we focus on an instability which occurs during certain polymer processing operations operating under predominantly elongational flow, such as extrusion film casting and fiber spinning. This instability, called the draw resonance, occurs in the form of sustained periodic fluctuations in the film dimensions. It appears when the process goes beyond the critical line speed of the EFC process. In this work, a conventional linear stability analysis is carried out for nonisothermal EFC process to determine the onset of the draw resonance. The polymer rheology is modeled by the Phan-Thien Tanner (PTT) multi-mode constitutive equation. For the implementation, a conventional shooting method approach is used. Extrusion film casting experiments were also carried out using a conventional linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) by varying process parameters such as draw ratio and aspect ratio, to observe the effect on the stability of the process. Linear stability analysis results under non-isothermal conditions are compared and validated with existing results from literature and with our own experimental data. This work displays the effect of multiple relaxation modes as well as the temperature influence on the stability of EFC process. Finally, results also indicate that the temperature highly affects the stability of the EFC process and cannot be ignored from modeling of EFC process.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6-7</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1.767</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rokade, Dhammaraj</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chougale, Sanket</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Patil, Prashant</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bhattacharjee, Tanushree</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gawande, Dnyaneshwar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pol, Harshawardhan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dhadwal, Renu</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Controlling draw resonance during extrusion film casting of nanoclay filled linear low-density polyethylene: an experimental study and numerical linear stability analysis</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Plastic Film &amp; Sheeting</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Draw resonance</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">extensional strain hardening</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Extrusion</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Film</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">hydrodynamic interactions</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nanoclay</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nanocomposites</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Polyethylene</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rheology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">stability</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2021</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JUL</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">37</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8756087920978443</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Commercially important extrusion film casting (EFC) processes for manufacturing plastic films or sheets are hampered by several instabilities that severely limits their productivity. In this research we focussed on one important instability: the draw resonance that occurs during the EFC process mainly under extensional flow conditions. Draw resonance is the sustained periodic oscillations in the film dimensions, notably film width and thickness, when the process operates beyond a critical draw ratio (CDR). In this research our goal was to reduce this draw resonance instability by incorporating well dispersed nanoclay fillers in a base polymeric resin (such as a linear low density polyethylene - LLDPE) to determine how these nanocomposite (NC) formulations can prevent or reduce the draw resonance defect. EFC experiments were conducted on the base resin and on the NC formulations under non-isothermal conditions to determine the onset of the draw resonance experimentally. Conventional linear stability analysis was performed to determine the onset of the draw resonance defect numerically. Numerical predictions for the onset of draw resonance were in qualitative agreement with our experimental data. Our results showed that incorporating appropriate nanoclay concentrations in a base polymeric resin indeed enhanced the EFC process stability for those polymer formulations and thus can have important economic implications for processors.&lt;/p&gt;
