Sustainability impact

Equipment engineered for long-lasting operation and built from recyclable materials, in line with the principles of the circular economy.

Key features

Fast melt-phase reaction

The process is considerably faster than solid-state polymerization.

No cooling and reheating

The material remains molten, reducing energy consumption and total processing time.

Axless cage reactor

The large reaction surface and axless design reduce buildup and simplify maintenance.

Product description

The liquid-state polymerization system increases PET molecular weight and viscosity directly in the melt phase. Removing the cooling and reheating cycle reduces energy consumption and shortens reaction time compared with solid-state polymerization. The axless cage-type LSP reactor provides a large film-forming surface, prevents material buildup and simplifies maintenance. The system…
