MATERIAL: |
Polyurethane flakes. 1/4" x 1/16" x 1/16". Estane in Cyclo Hexanone or Tetra Hydro Furan or Methyl Ethyl Ketone.
|
PROBLEM:
|
Dissolve flakes in solvent to make clear liquid resin for magnetic coating. Obtain correct viscosity and molecular weight.
|
RESULTS:
|
Flakes easily ground in first pass. Recirculated slurry at 15-20 gpm. Dissolved rapidly. |
AB MIXER:
|
Model 3 x 1.5 toothed impeller/liner, 5 HP, 3600 RPM, 1/4" grid. Mounted vertically below tank.
|
BENEFITS |
Estane chips rapidly dissolved without reducing molecular weight or lowering viscosity. Finished liquid resin is clear. No "fish-eyes" or specks. |
