Zusammenfassung:Processes and apparatus for melt extrusion of polymeric compositions, particularly conductive polymers, in which a gear pump delivers molten polymeric composition to an extrusion orifice. Overfeeding of the composition due to pressure variations is avoided by means of a polymer relief means, preferably a second, smaller gear pump, which removes a portion of the molten composition when the pressure exceeds a selected level.
