Etymology
The word 'extrude' stems from the Latin root 'extrudere', which is composed of 'ex-' meaning 'out' and 'trudere' meaning 'to push'. The term was adopted into English in the early 19th century during the industrial revolution when new manufacturing processes were introduced. Initially, it referred primarily to the extrusion of metals and, later, plastics. As industries evolved, so did the applications of extrusion, leading to its use in food production and construction materials. The concept of extruding not only reflects advancements in technology but also highlights the creative potential in shaping materials into functional products.
