The Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE) affects dimensional changes and warpage of extrusion blow molded parts. The aim of the study is to develop an new materials model of CTE for semi-crystalline HDPE to improve the FEM simulations of extrusion blow molded parts. Results and Discussion

The final properties of extrusion blow molded parts depend on the processing parameters such as melt temperature, mold temperature, extrusion speed and wall thickness. For bottles and containers shrinkage and warpage are important phenomena which affect geometry and performance. Thus they have to be taken into account in part design and process development. The amount of shrinkage and warpage depend on the CTE as FEM simulations show, Fig.1. The classical method is a linear description of the CTE which is only valid in a certain temperature range and for homogenous materials. In reality the CTE is a function which strongly depends on local crystallinity and molecule orientation. A description of the CTE based on the anisotropic morphology of semi-crystalline polymers does not exist yet.

The thermal expansion of the part is lower in ||-direction than in -direction and increases in a non-linear manner with temperature while crystallinity decreases, Fig. 2. Assuming mechanical coupling of

Fig. 3: Comparison of measured (red) and calculated (blue) thermal expansion || to MD

The calculated thermal expansion || and  to MD is in good agreement with the measured ones until melting starts at 110°C, Fig. 4. This deviation can be explained by the fact that the stiffening effect of the crystalline phase decreases below crystallinities of 30%. A minimal crystallinity seems to be required which can be estimated by the chain lengths of olefins melting around 100°C. 0,020

Material: HDPE Lupolen 4261 AG from LyondellBasell. Samples were taken out parallel () and perpendicular () to the extrusion direction (MD). The thermal expansion was measured with a Netzsch DMA 242 C in TMA mode with heat rate of 5 K/min between 25°C to 150°C and an initial load: 2 N. The crystallinity was measured with a Perkin Elmer DSC 8000 with heat rate of 20 K/min from -40°C to 180°C in N2-gas.

Introducing values taken from literature the CTE-model in MD reproduces well the measured thermal expansion || to MD over the total temperature range, Fig. 3.

Conclusions This study shows that the new approach to model of CTE || and  to MD yields a good correlation to the experimental results. This provides the opportunity to predict the shrinkage and warpage of the final products by FEM if the model is more refined.
