The complex flow behaviour of partly crosslinked or highly filled polymer melts will be described with a new heuristic flow law, which takes into account the pseudoplastic flow behaviour in the regime of the viscosity curve for low and for high shear rates. The CARPOW law is a combination of the often used power and Carreau law. It describes the flow behaviour of partly crosslinked or highly filled polymer melts for the shear rate ranges in extrusion and injection molding tools. The evaluation and the presentation of the rotational and the capillary rheometrical viscosity measurements are detailed described. For highly filled or for partly crosslinked plastic melts a new defined consistency parameter is defined. It characterizes the flow obstruction in the CARPOW law. Further the temperature invariant representation of the CARPOW law is shown. This new flow law is applied for a partly crosslinked and a highly filled polymer system. The design of the extrusion tools should consider the flow behaviour described by the CARPOW law. Only with this flow law the design of tooling in the case of partly crosslinked or highly filled polymer melts is correct. Two praxis relevant examples demonstrate the calculation for an extrusion die using this new flow law.
