  text: Compounding is an important step in processing base polymers and is used to
    incorporate various additives into a polymer. For this purpose, different screw
    elements are used for dispersive and distributive mixing on a co-rotating twin-screw
    extruder. Optimising the screw configuration requires precise knowledge of the
    screw elements’ mixing properties, which have not been thoroughly investigated.
    This study analyses the mixing behaviour of individual screw elements regarding
    dispersive and distributive mixing using 3D CFD flow simulations with subsequent
    particle tracking. For distributive mixing, the particle distribution behind the
    screw elements in the XY plane is analysed and the mixing index MQ, which relates
    the standard deviation and the mean value of the triangular areas between the
    particles, is calculated. For dispersive mixing, the maximum shear stress on the
    particle path and the integral of the shear stress over the residence time of
    each individual particle are determined. The results show that screw element geometry
    and rotation speed have a significant influence on dispersive and distributive
    mixing. In addition, better dispersive mixing is achievable with highly viscous
    materials. These findings enable the optimisation of the mixing zone of a co-rotating
    twin-screw extruder for the efficient mixing of mineral fillers.
