Rheology

the expansion of a polymer melt or viscoelastic fluid in diameter as it leaves a die, due to recovery of stored elastic strain.

In rheology, die swell refers to the expansion of a polymer melt or viscoelastic fluid in diameter as it leaves a die, due to recovery of stored elastic strain. This meaning comes from Tanner (1970) in Journal of Polymer Science Part A-2: Polymer Physics.[1]
