Polymerization Solutions

Polymerization processes demand specialized mixing solutions due to increasing viscosity, exothermic reaction heat and precise temperature control requirements. Mechanimix ensures the safety and efficiency of your polymerization processes with high-viscosity impellers and ATEX compliant reactor systems.

Effective Mixing at High Viscosity

As polymerization progresses, viscosity increases dramatically and conventional impellers become inadequate. Mechanimix HVM and HWM-B impellers are designed to provide homogeneous mixing and effective heat transfer even in high-viscosity media.

HEAT TRANSFER

Control of Exothermic Reaction Heat

Polymerization reactions are generally exothermic, and insufficient heat transfer can lead to thermal runaway and product degradation. Mechanimix RC-M series jacketed reactors and HP series mixers guarantee temperature control with high heat transfer surface area and effective mixing.
