Transportation of Raw Materials for Polymerization Reactions
In the process of plastic production, such as the production of polyvinyl chloride (PVC). To produce PVC, it is necessary to transport vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) into the polymerization reactor. Vinyl chloride monomer is an organic compound with certain volatility and toxicity. The flexible pump can effectively transport this high-purity VCM because it can ensure good sealing, reduce the risk of leakage, and can handle this chemical raw material like VCM which has relatively low viscosity but requires high stability in transportation. Meanwhile, the self-priming ability of the flexible pump can ensure that VCM is quickly and stably sucked in and transported when feeding the reactor, which contributes to the smooth progress of the polymerization reaction.
Transportation of Raw Materials in Paint Production
Paint production involves various raw materials with high viscosity and containing solid particles. Taking latex paint as an example, it is necessary to transport raw materials such as emulsions and pigment pastes. Emulsions usually have a relatively high viscosity, and pigment pastes contain various pigment particles. The flexible pump can easily handle this situation. It can transport high-viscosity emulsions, ensuring the stable flow of emulsions in the pipelines without blockages or unstable flow due to viscosity problems. For pigment pastes, the flexible impeller of the flexible pump can adapt to the presence of particles without being damaged by particle abrasion, effectively transporting the pigment pastes to the mixing equipment and ensuring the quality and efficiency of paint production.
Transportation of Raw Materials in Fertilizer Production
In the production of urea, it is necessary to transport liquid ammonia and carbon dioxide. Liquid ammonia is a high-purity chemical raw material with a pungent smell and certain corrosiveness. The flexible pump can prevent the leakage of liquid ammonia when transporting it by virtue of its good corrosion-resistant materials and sealing structure. Meanwhile, for the gas-liquid mixture like carbon dioxide that may generate bubbles under certain conditions, the flexible pump can transport it stably without the presence of gas affecting the transportation efficiency. In the process of transporting these raw materials to key equipment such as synthesis towers, the stable performance of the flexible pump ensures the continuity and product quality of urea production.
Transportation of Catalysts in Fine Chemicals
In some fine chemical synthesis reactions, such as the hydrogenation reaction in organic synthesis, catalysts are required. These catalysts may be high-viscosity liquids or suspensions containing tiny solid particles. For example, the suspensions of some precious metal catalysts have fine particles and the catalysts are expensive. The flexible pump can accurately transport the solutions containing these catalysts. Its flexible impeller can avoid damaging the catalyst particles and at the same time ensure the uniform transportation of the catalysts, which helps to improve the selectivity and yield of the reaction, and this is crucial for the high-quality production of fine chemical products.
