LDPE, produced by
the high-pressure polymerization of ethylene, is an important commercial
product used in film, paper coating, injection molding, and wire/cable
insulation. Autoclave is a single source for the design and supply of
polyethylene production reactors. Autoclave also supplies associated equipment
like Separator Vessels, Catch Pots and Pulsation Bottles for LDPE and
HDPE processes.
Any system involving a high-pressure vessel or stirred reactor.

BENEFITS
The threadless split clamp closure
of Autoclaves' LDPE Reactor is an economical design for a production process
that requires very high pressures and continuous operation. Double ended
for easy cleaning or access, the vertical operation of the unit enables
efficient flow through processing. ASME and CE Code Stamping are available,
as are custom designs to specific requirements.
