Overview

Chemspeed's solution

The leading technology in overhead gravimetric dispensing / dosing (patented) combined with our quality by desisng reactor technology as well as process excellence and user-friendly software enable you to accelerate, standardize and digitize your polyolefin and rubber synthesis / optimization / scale-up workflows:

  • solution-phase
  • slurry-phase
  • bulk-phase
  • gas-phase
  • multi-stage
  • polymerizations.

Each reactor with its own set of conditions - individually controlled tank reactors (reactor volumes 100, 240, 1’000 mL total volume) with precise, continuous feeds.

Benefits

Powerful advantages

  • Up to 36 olefin polymerizations per run on an AUTOPLANT, up to 6 per run on a MULTIPLANT.
  • Integration with / in MBrown glove-box.
  • Independent control of all process parameters in each reactor with PAT like NIR, PSD, GC(MS).
  • Independent and precise temperature and stirring control in each reactor.
  • Up to 8 independent gas, liquefied gas and liquid feeds per reactor.
  • Gravimetric solid and viscous liquid dispensing.
  • 4-Needle Head for volumetric liquid handling and sampling.
  • Feeding and sampling under reaction conditions.
  • Cleaning in place (e.g. automated cleaning, inserts).
  • Dispensed amount, stirrer speed, temperature, pressure, time, ... and other data are stored in a read only log file.
  • AUTOSUITE software - drag & drop experimentation with easy interface to data analysis.
  • Interface for e.g. DOE, ML, AI, LIMS, ELN, ERP integration.
