Investigation of the activation efficiency of powdered polyvinylchloride

Abstract

The purpose of these studies is to determine the mechanical activation characteristics of powdered suspension polyvinylchloride with zinc. The studying method of the powdered polymeric raw material’s mechanical activation effectiveness with fine metal powders is developed, according to which the influence of the powdered polyvinyl chloride and finely divided zinc ratio, the time of the mixture treatment, as well as the degree of a ball mill loading on the activation efficiency of the polymer surface has been investigated. The optimal processing time of powdered polyvinyl chloride in a ball mill during the activation of fine zinc has been established.
