Optimized PVC Compounding with Kneaders

PVC compounding requires an optimized process to balance gentle processing, homogeneous gelation, and intensive mixing, especially as filler contents increase. Continuous kneaders are optimal as they can precisely control energy input, monitor temperature, and provide gentle material processing, excellent mixing and self-cleaning, along with the highest achievable filler loadings and homogeneous PVC gelation. Continuous kneaders come in various sizes from 100-240mm in diameter to handle throughputs of 700-10,000kg/hr with specific energy inputs of 0.05-0.08kWh/kg.
