Calculation of PSI from PLI in nip

[wilder1]

Any advice on where one can find calculations to convert from PLI to PSI generated inside a calender nip

 

[PrentP]

It's an old book, probably out of print, but it has the best analysis of calendering I have ever found.

"Polymer Processing" by James M McKelvey, Published by John Wiley and Sons Inc. 1962.

Chapter 9 'Hydrodynamic Analysis of Calenders' - excellent, well worth searching it out.

If you can't find it contact James M Mckelvey at
