Semi-continuous process enhances PUR production.


A semi-continuous reaction process for manufacturing polyurethane polyurethane

Any of a class of very versatile polymers that are made into flexible and rigid foams, fibres, elastomers (elastic polymers), surface coatings, and adhesives.
 hot melt reactive adhesives (PURs) is said to replace outdated out·dat·ed

 its developer.

This semi-continuous process to manufacture the company's Fleximelt range of PURs is available for use in a wide range of industrial applications. This latest version of the company's reactor Reactor (electricity)

A device for introducing an inductive reactance into a circuit. Inductive reactance x is a function of the product of frequency f and inductance L; thus, x = 2πfL.
 for liquid products can produce prepolymers at a rate of 1,000 kg in 13 minutes. It requires only one operator and has quickly brought significant environmental benefits, while also improving manufacturing flexibility and efficiency, and product quality and consistency, according to the company, which is now applying this same production technology to the production of PUR adhesives.

The flexibility of this process is said to mean that the company can meet customer requirements more quickly, even where a large number of small batches is needed. It is said to be an environmentally friendly Environmentally friendly, also referred to as nature friendly, is a term used to refer to goods and services considered to inflict minimal harm on the environment.[1]  process.
