AIMPLAS has organised the third edition of its compounding workshop, entitled ‘The art of mixing, reinforcing and incorporating additives to plastics’, which will take place at its facilities in Valencia, Spain on 9th-10th May 2018.
AIMPLAS says the workshop has several objectives including identifying the essential concepts for optimum mixing in each compound, determining the most appropriate equipment for each process, designing a new compounding process and controlling the most important parameters in the production of a compound.
The workshop is aimed at companies who are interested in strengthening their knowledge in compounding, such as plastics mixing, reinforcing, additive concentrations and co-rotating twin screw extrusion.

On the second day, practical training will be carried out explaining the most important concepts for the obtaining of inorganic fillers and glass fibres compounds.
Luis Roca, Head of the Compounding Department of AIMPLAS will lead the event.
