Shear rate refers to the speed at which layers of the polymer flow past one another, and it plays a pivotal role in defining the final properties of the molded or extruded product. At low shear rates, the polymer chains have sufficient time to relax and align slowly, which can lead to non-uniform motion and low consistency. This often results in surface defects su..."
