Claims
- 1. A method for curing thermoset plastic materials comprising:
- introducing the thermoset material under pressure into a region between a conical male member and complementarily-shaped female conical member in which male member is disposed so as to define said region therebetween, said introduction occuring at the base end of said conical members, so as to cause said material to flow toward the tip region defined by said conical members;
- supplying heat to the volume between said conical members so as to heat said thermoset material to its cure temperature; and
- introducing said thermoset material from said tip region into an adjacently disposed mixing chamber, so as to enhance the thermal and material homogeneity of said thermoset plastic.
- 2. The method of claim 1 in which said conical members are disposed in a downward direction.
- 3. The method of claim 1 in which said male conical member and said female conical member are heated independently.
- 4. The method of claim 1 in which conduit means are employed for removing heat cured thermoset plastic material from said mixing chamber.
- 5. The method of claim 1 in which the spacing between said conical male member and said complementarily-shaped conical female member is adjusted to match the viscosity of the thermoset plastic material.
