High Viscosity Products

High Viscosity Products

High viscosity technology is a special application for the thermal treatment in polymer production and in post-reaction treatment.

Basing on Mabo's wide experience in the concentration of products with millions cP of viscosity, 3V Tech designs and supplies tailor-made thermal separation plants for highly viscosity products, which can be arranged as skid-mounted units or suitable systems for on-site installation.

Typical applications for polymers

• Degassing
• Devolatilization
• Monomers removal
• Concentration
• Polycondensation
• Spinning melt production

Evaporator types
3V Tech has specifically developed a vertical thin film evaporator with a special rotor (HHV type) for this high viscosity technology.

In this execution, special blades provide for positive transport of viscous material which do not flow easily by gravity. Volatile components are rapidly evaporated. The large free vapor space in relation to the low product hold-up allows the separation of large volatile rates in a single stage.

Depending on the application, our evaporators are fabricated with proper alloy or high quality glass-lined for highly corrosive applications.
