Abstract

Rheological testing has been developed to predict the extrudability of ceramic pastes. Inorganic batches containing cellulosic binders were mixed in a twin screw extruder prior to characterization in a capillary rheometer. Various die lengths were used to separate viscosity from wall slip parameters. A power law model was fit to the paste viscosity. The wall shear stress, assuming 100% slip, was a linear function of the wall velocity. The resulting rheological models were used in fluid flow finite element analysis for determination of extrusion pressure, and the evaluation of binders.
