Troubleshooting Coextrusion Issues (Multilayer Films and Sheets)
Say goodbye to low productivity & disrupted delivery when coextruding multi-layer films & sheetsby efficiently troubleshooting recurring issues and defects(melt fracture, interfacial instability, incomplete flow…)that arise in your day-to-day.
Thomas Bezigianwill help you diagnose thecauses of coextrusion defectson the production floor(no use of complex equations)and troubleshoot faster with practical strategies &hands-on secretsthat no one writes about in the plastic industry.

Explanation of problems in a very simple understandable way although presenter has a huge and in-depth knowledge of the topic itself.

Why should you view this course?
When coextruding multi-layer films and sheets, issues such as melt fracture, interfacial instability, incomplete flow… occur very frequently. This leads to low productivity, high rate of wasted material, no goods on the market and disappointed customers due to disruption in delivery.
How best to diagnose the cause of these issues? How to troubleshoot your coextrusion process faster? How to communicate efficiently with machine manufacturers? Join this course and:
- Get a practical review of thecauses of all the coextrusion issues and defects(melt fracture, interfacial instability, incomplete flow…)
- Quickly diagnosewhat’s wrong with your coextruded multilayer filmwithout coming back to theory & lengthy equations
- Learn how to solve them practicallywith insights from our expertThomas Bezigian, who will share best practices that no one writes about
Who should view this course?
Developers and producers of coextruded multilayer films & sheetswith a need to troubleshoot faster day-to-day issues.
This course can also prove useful formachine manufacturers and resin suppliers, willing to improve their discussions with films and sheets developers and producers (better understanding of customers issues, talk the same language...).
