The present invention relates to a method for producing antimicrobial nanofilms packaging cover based on Titanium nano-dioxide through extrusion for extension of food shelf-life. The method comprises the steps of providing nano-silver and nano-clay particles which are antimicrobial agents to enhance mechanical properties of packaging in food industry; and evaluating effects of nano clay and nano silver packaging on the growth of these bacteria within 6 days of shelf life keeping at 4° C. The silver and clay nanoparticles are analyzed using AFM, SEM, FESEM, EDX, FTIR and TEM, wherein the size of clay and silver nanoparticles are measured 15 nm and 35 nm, respectively.

The present invention discloses a PET-coated wire for a hanger wherein the wire is coated with PET to form a PET coating having a thickness of 0.03 to 0.05 mm, and a hanger made of the wire. The PET coating apparatus for a wire used for a hanger of the present invention comprises a preheating device 20 for preheating the cleaned wire 10 to 220 to 250° C., an extruder 30 and a dice 40 for coating the preheated wire 10 with PET to form a PET coating having a thickness of 0.03 to 0.05 mm, a cooling bath 50 for cooling the PET-coated wire 100, and a winding device 60 for drawing out and winding the cooled wire. The cooling bath 50 of the present invention is designed such that the wire passes through the cooling bath 50 having a length of 5 m three times for sufficient cooling when the wire proceeds at a high speed of 220 to 300 m/min.

A retractable guide (200) is provided for use in a cooling die (202) for the manufacture of extruded food products. The retractable guide (200) is configured to be secured between an input end and an output end of the cooling die (202). A method of high moisture extrusion suitable for manufacturing foodstuffs is also provided, which comprises inserting the retractable guide (200) into a cooling die (202).

A wire drawing process of a light storage wire includes a feeding step, a mixing step, a first drying step, a hot melt extrusion step, a first cooling step, a shaping/organizing wire step, a hot-temperature remodeling step, a stretching step, a second cooling step, a strand winding/rolling step, and a second drying step.

A method of forming a plurality of fasteners includes extruding a continuous strip of material, the continuous strip defining a base portion, a tip portion, and a stem portion extending between the base portion and the tip portion. A portion of material is removed from the continuous strip of material along the tip portion such that a plurality of tip portions are separated from each other and spaced apart, each tip portion having at least one flexible tab. The continuous strip of material is then extruded through a foaming die, wherein the flexible tabs are elastically displaced away from the base portion during a foaming process such that a foam material fills a cavity of the foaming die to form a sealing element around the stem portion. Portions of the continuous strip between each of the tip portions are separated to produce a plurality of individual sealed fasteners.

A molding apparatus, a cigarette filter rod and a preparation method thereof are disclosed. The molding apparatus comprises a single-screw extrusion system and a cooling setting system. The single-screw extrusion system comprises a feeder and an extruder. The feeder is arranged on the extruder. The extruder comprises a cylinder. A heater is arranged outside the cylinder. A screw is arranged inside the cylinder, and a mouth mold is arranged at one end of the cylinder. The cooling setting system comprises a round tube and a cooler. The cooler (6) is arranged outside the round tube. One end of the round tube is butted with the mouth mold of the extruder; and multiple groups of grooves are formed on threads of the head of the screw.

An apparatus and a method for improving at least one physical property of an extruded plastic material comprise an extruder for extruding the plastic material as well as a laser unit with at least one laser for irradiating the extruded plastic material with laser light. Further, the apparatus has at least one laser light-reflecting reflector arranged at a distance to the extruded plastic material. The laser and the reflector are arranged and designed such that the laser light emitted by the laser is incident on the reflector through the extruded plastic material, the reflector reflects the incident laser light such that at least a part of the reflected laser light hits the extruded plastic material.

An illustrative example embodiment of a method of making a concrete expansion joint insert includes moving a material including a resin having a melt temperature through a die having a flow passage that ends in an exit having a selected geometry, increasing a temperature of only a segment of the die near the exit to an elevated temperature that is at least 1.5 times the melt temperature, and increasing the temperature of a portion of the material to an increased temperature above the melt temperature through contact with the segment having the elevated temperature.

Disclosed are cable types, including a type THHN cable, the cable types having a reduced surface coefficient of friction, and the method of manufacture thereof, in which the central conductor core and insulating layer are surrounded by a material containing nylon or thermosetting resin. A silicone based pulling lubricant for said cable, or alternatively, erucamide or stearyl erucamide for small cable gauge wire, is incorporated, by alternate methods, with the resin material from which the outer sheath is extruded, and is effective to reduce the required pulling force between the formed cable and a conduit during installation.
