This paper presents a functional analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of several types of barrier section extruder screws, indicating preferred geometrical configurations for certain applications. In addition, aspects of barrier mixing sections are discussed and analytical expressions for optimizing channel depth and helix angle to minimize the pressure drop over the barrier mixing section are presented.
