Abstract
The paper considers the fundamental principles of the study of the rheological features of the melt flow of the initial high-density polyethylene and its filled compositions with aluminum powder, depending on the filler concentration, temperature and shear rate. To improve the compatibility of metal-polymer systems, a compatibilizer has been used, which is a graft copolymer of high-density polyethylene containing 5.6 wt. % maleic anhydride. The flow curves and the dependence of the effective viscosity on the shear rate of the initial high-density polyethylene and composites containing 0.5 wt. % and 5.0 wt. % aluminum powder has been determined. The regularity of the change in the effective viscosity of the melt on the temperature in Arrhenius coordinates has been established. Based on the curves obtained, the values of the activation energy of the viscous flow have been determined. A temperature-invariant characteristic of the composites viscosity properties has been drawn, which makes it possible to predict the change in the value of this indicator at high shear rates, close to their processing by extrusion and injection molding. The developed materials have been tested at the METAK LLC enterprise in Azerbaijan
