OBJECT:
|
Disperse polyethylene oxide powder (Polyox) into water and then add a volatile fragrance. Mixture is subsequently blended into polyurethane foam.
|
|
PROBLEM:
|
Polyox is difficult to disperse because viscosity rises quickly to a stiff gel consistency.
|
|
RESULTS:
|
Polyethylene oxide powder is pulled in with “down mode” and then homogenized with the “up mode” at full speed.
|
|
AB MIXER:
|
Model C-1-2 on 100 pound (dry basis) batch.
|
|
BENEFIT:
EQUIPMENT
REPLACED
|
Polyox micro encapsulates fragrances into foam structure so a timed release effect is obtained.
