Calorimetry (adiabatic, isothermal, differential, oscillating or acoustic) is generally based on heat-flow measurements of the studied system. Most of its applications are dedicated to kinetic-parameter detn., safety studies and process optimization, phase ...
Inline conversion measurements in chem. reactions are in general and esp. in polymn. reactions necessary for process monitoring and control. For polymn. monitoring, the sound propagation (UPV) can be related to the texture of the bulk with a high accuracy. ...
A review, with 17 refs., on research carried out by the polymer reaction engineering group at EPFL in reaction engineering, including kinetic modeling of polymn. reactions (lab. and pilot scale reactors), free radical, polyepoxydation, polycondensation. De ...
Ultrasound propagates through an elastic medium at a rate or speed named the ultrasound propagation velocity (UPV). This velocity is detd. by the rate at which the wave energy is transmitted, inversely related to the square root of the d. and compressibili ...
This paper deals with the kinetic study of bulk free radical polymerization of styrene initiated with the commercial bifunctional initiator 2,5-dimethyl-2,5-bis(2-ethyl hexanoyl peroxy)hexane (Lupersol 256). The polymerization kinetics is investigated by D ...
A review. Scale-up and/or scale-down procedures are crucial during the development of chem. processes. These procedures should be integrated to form a multidisciplinary approach encompassing several branches of science and engineering. The challenge is to ...
The scale-up/-down of polymn. reactors has to deal with large viscosity changes during the process, addressing mass- and heat-transfer issues. A practical example on scale-up of styrene and Me methacrylate free radical bulk and soln. polymn. is presented. ...
Solid epoxy resins are produced at Vantico SA by catalyzed reactions of a low-mol. wt. liq. resin (RBL) with bisphenol A (BPA). These reactions lead to solid epoxy resins, which are used in surface coatings or adhesives. The chain lengthening step (advance ...
This paper is the second part of a description of the online monitoring through ultrasound propagation velocity measurements of styrene polymn. in a continuous recycle reactor. A set of calibrations and a simple math. model are proposed to interpret the ex ...
This paper presents a new method for writing and erasing a birefringence in optical fibers by polarized UV side-exposure. This experiment gives new insight into the origin of the induced birefringence and some applications are outlined ...
