DEFINITION

Classification: 264/173.12

Melt extrusion (e.g., co-extrusion, etc.):

(under subclass 173.11) Processes wherein the multi-layered, indefinite length body is formed by forcing a melt through a confining orifice whereby the cross-sectional area of the extruded portion corresponds to the dimensions of the orifice.
