Description:

The importance of rheological properties of polymers is well recognized by engineers and scientists in the polymer processing industry. Issues such as whether or not a plastic product would have the expected designed performance, or whether or not a manufacturing process could be optimized etc. are closely related to the overall rheological behaviors of the involved polymetric system. This webinar is designed to discuss how the physical properties of the solid raw materials such as additives, fillers etc. commonly used in the industry could affect the important rheological behaviors (such as die swell and slip velocity) of the polymeric system during extrusion.

Expert:

Dr. Anthony Wong obtained his B.Tech (Hons) and Ph.D degrees in Chemical Engineering from University of Bradford, U.K.. Prior to taking up his academic duties at The University of Hong Kong, he was with BASF and Exxon Chemical as the technical support to their sales team of their plastics department for the Asia Pacific region. In his 20 years of employment at The University of Hong Kong, he taught at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels, and was also actively engaged in carrying out research work in plastics technology. Main areas of his research focuses include extrusion technology, polymer rheology, powder technology, and environmental engineering. In 2003, he joined NHH Co. Ltd. (a color compounder listed in Hong Kong) as its Vice Chairman and Director, responsible for the company’s technology and market development. He left NHH in April 2019 and is now the Asia Pacific market coordinator for Badger Color Concentrates, Inc., a US based color compounder.
