Long Before the "Squeeze Bottle"... Polyethylene Research Demanded High Pressure Autoclaves I and Valves
HP I he Polyethylene Research story published in Fortune early this year reports that great difficulty has been encountered in the manufacturing process. Ultrahigh processing pressures require new designs in valves, vessels, pumps, joints and pipes to handle the unprecedented conditions. These requirements challenge the best engineering brains of two continents. ^ 3 0 , 0 0 0 p.s.i. plant valves as shown here will be used in the manufacture of polyethylene. ^jk high pressure autoclaves, valves and fittings for laboratory and pilot plant are satisfying the demands of Research for operation in ranges of 0 to 100,000 p.s.i. It is primarily a matter of time and economics before commercial equipment will be available in the top operating range. The highly trained engineering staff at ^ , the skilled craftsmen, modern production facilities and experience comprise a team you can depend upon to meet your research requirements.
