Phenolic resins are often made for impregnating and sizing paper. Since phenolic resins have exothermic reactions that are temperature sensitive, it is important to carefully control the viscosity. If the reaction is exothermic and/or too fast, the result can be hard and unusable. If the reaction is too slow, the production time increases, resulting in low productivity and increased energy consumption. In both cases, this can lead to delivery delays and higher labor costs. If the reaction is exothermic, it can even result in the replacement of expensive equipment.
The MIVI viscometer provides real-time information that controls the reaction stages. The high range and high sensitivity at low viscosity of the MIVI in-line viscometer makes it the ideal tool for real-time monitoring of viscosity in phenolic resin processes. This sensor reduces coagulation to zero and can be easily installed in a reactor or vessel or bypass. In this article you can read more about the MIVI in-line viscometer in phenolic resin processes.
