It is of great importance to understand the stretching and folding mechanism in the multiflux co-extrusion die to get uniform multilayer distribution at the end of die lip in the multilayer co-extrusion processes. In this work, to understand the mechanism of the layer distribution, modeling and numerical simulation were carried out for three-dimensional flow analysis in the multilayer co-extrusion die. The multilayer flow fields were numerically visualized and analyzed on the arbitrary cross-section of the multiflux die. In addition, numerical results for the multiflux die characteristics were obtained for non-Newtonian fluids in terms of power-law index for the cross model, which will be useful for the optimal design of screw and die, simultaneously, in the multilayer co-extrusion process.
