This advanced course is designed for professionals dealing with technical polymers such as ABS, SAN, PA, PC, PBT, and others. These materials require precise control over drying, dosing, and processing conditions. You will learn how to stabilize recycled raw materials, avoid degradation, and ensure consistent quality even with variable feedstock.
Who is this course for?
🟢 For owners and production managers responsible for regranulating engineering plastics.
🟢 For experienced extrusion technicians working with hygroscopic and hydrophobic polymers.
🟢 For specialists dealing with unstable regranulates or materials prone to degradation.
🟢 For professionals seeking to optimize energy use, reduce waste, and improve process stability.
Course Objective
This course explains how to adapt the extrusion process to the specific properties of various technical polymers – from hygroscopic types like PA and PBT to more thermally sensitive materials like ABS, SAN or ASA. You’ll learn how to eliminate common defects, improve the quality of regranulates, and achieve stable processing parameters regardless of raw material variability.
Why should you join?
🟢 Learn to identify and address common issues in technical polymer regranulation.
🟢 Understand the differences between hygroscopic and non-hygroscopic plastics.
🟢 Learn how to prepare raw materials and set drying conditions correctly.
🟢 Discover how to maintain MFI, color, and structural consistency.
🟢 Improve batch-to-batch repeatability and reduce process instability.
What will you learn?
🟢 Classification and preparation of technical polymers
Understand what makes a material hygroscopic, and how this affects drying, MFI and processing conditions.
🟢 Drying and material handling best practices:
• Drying parameters for PA, PC, POM, PMMA, TPU, PET-G
• Preventing moisture-related defects in extrusion
• Influence of residual humidity on MFI, strength and appearance
🟢 Processing of hydrophobic polymers:
• ABS, SAN, ASA, TPE, PC/ABS – key risks and settings
• Avoiding delamination, color shifts and contamination
• When and how to apply filtration
🟢 Mixing, homogenization and process stabilization:
• Dealing with regrind from multiple sources
• How to stabilize MFI, color, and structure
• When to add virgin material and how much
🟢 Quality control and lab testing:
• How to test MFI, moisture, and density
• Which tests are critical for technical polymers
