What are the differences between adiabatic heating and thermal heating as applied to extruders and why are both important?

What will be an ideal response?


Adiabatic heating is caused by the mechanical action of the screw on the resin inside the extruder. Thermal heating is caused by the heaters that surround the extruder barrel. Both are important because they combine to give the internal energy needed for melting. Some especially thermal-sensitive polymers cannot tolerate much thermal heating
