A 58% (by weight) long glass fiber reinforced (LGF)-HDPE master batch was blended with a typical blow molding HDPE grade. HDPE composites having between 5% and 20% (by weight) long fiber content were extruded at different processing conditions (extrusion speed, die gap, hang time). The parison swell (diameter and thickness) decreased with increasing fiber content. Although the HDPE exhibited significant shear rate dependence, the LGF/HDPE composites were shear rate insensitive. Both the diameter and weight swell results also indicated very different sagging behavior. The LGF/HDPE parisons did sag as a solid-body (equal speed at different axial locations) governed by the orientation caused by the flow in the die. Samples taken from blown bottles showed that fiber lengths decreased to 1-3 mm, from the original 11 min fiber length fed to the extruder. No significant difference in fiber length distribution was found when samples for different regions of the bottle were analyzed. SEM micrographs corroborate the absence of fiber segregation and clustering or the occurrence of fiber bundles (homogeneous spatial fiber distribution) as well as a preferential fiber orientation with the direction of flow. The blowing step did not change the orientation of the fibers. Five-percent (5%) and 10% LGF/HDPE composites could be blown with very slight variations to the neat HDPE inflation conditions. However, 20% LGF/HDPE composites could not be consistently inflated. Problems related to blowouts and incomplete weldlines were the major source of problems.
