Abstract: The present invention including the disclosed embodiments thereof generally relate to extruding multiple laminated flow streams using microlayer extrusion, and in particular to creating and forming products with electrical properties that are formed from layers and particles with dimensions in the micro to nanometer range.

Abstract: A novel tubular or profile shapes of co-extruded multilayer polymers. These materials contain tens to thousands of layers of micro- to nano-polymer layers. These new shapes contain contiguous layers of milli- to nano-polymer layers in three dimensions and these contiguous layers may be twisted or turned to further expand the potential microlayer geometries.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments generally relate to extruding multiple layers of micro- to nano-polymer layers in a tubular shape. In particular, the aspects of the disclosed embodiments are directed to a method for producing a Bragg reflector comprising co-extrusion of micro- to nano-polymer layers in a tubular shape.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to extrusion die systems. In particular, the present disclosure relates to the cyclical extrusion of materials to generate small sized grain features, generally in the range of nanosized grain features, in a tubular or profile shape, in which the individual nanolayers possess pores and/or polymer crystals oriented parallel to the extrusion flow direction and including products with enhanced permeation properties.

Abstract: The present invention relates to 3D printer inputs including filaments comprising separated layers or sections. These inputs particularly including filaments may be prepared by coextrusion, microlayer coextrusion or multicomponent/fractal coextrusion. These inputs and specifically filaments enable layering or combining different materials simultaneously through one or more nozzles during the so-called 3D printing process. These techniques facilitate smaller layer sizes (milli, micro, and nano) different layer configurations as well as the potential to incorporate materials that would otherwise not be usable in standard 3D printer methods.

Abstract: The aspects of the disclosed embodiments provide unique extrusion methods and apparatus to create a multi-component product made from various streams of molten plastic. The method for creating multicomponent multilayered products includes merging multiple streams containing individualized component and layer designs into a single stream to form a rod, tube, pipe, filament, or profile shape.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate to extrusion systems and involves a method to promote self-balancing of flow velocity while enhancing the strength of the end product by off-setting seams. This invention focuses on using a system of more than one deflector to produce multiple rings which are then quickly merged to produce a more quickly balanced ring.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of transforming multilayered and/or multi-component streams into tubular shapes prior to or during extrusion by passing the streams over a deflector. The invention also relates to dies containing spiral, bowtie, circumferential and/or wrapping deflectors and products made by such methods.

Abstract: A method for wrapping a stream of material or stream of layers of materials includes feeding a stream of material or stream of layers of materials into a die containing a wrapping deflector which acts to wrap the stream into a tubular or profile shape.
