Monofilament Extrusion Plant

FAQ's

• What is monofilament extrusion?
  Monofilament extrusion is a process used to make continuous strands of polymeric material for a variety of consumer and industrial products. Both one and two polymer systems called co-extrusion or bicomponent extrusion are widely used. Synthetic monofilament fibers are produced by extruding a melted polymer through small spinneret holes. This process is well known and is broadly applied in industry. The preparation, melting, and extrusion of the polymer are similar to those used for film blowing, die casting, and various fiber spinning processes. However, for higher tex fibers (diameters of > 100 microns) the fiber processing is unique and is similar to slit film fiber processing (Hans A. Krassig, 1984). In the case of low tex monofilaments, the fiber processing steps are similar to the production of standard industrial multi-filament fibers.
• What material is monofilament?
  One of the fluoropolymer products we manufacture for many different industries is monofilament fiber. In a nutshell, monofilament is a single filament of synthetic fiber. Monofilament is made by melting and mixing polymers. The polymer mixture is then extruded through holes, creating lines of various thickness. While it used in many applications now, many people are introduced to monofilament fiber the first time they go fishing.
• What is the use of monofilament fabric?
  It is the net in the form of fabric primarily used for the purpose of wet filtration in industries like textile and spinning, chemical, printing, rubber & various others.
