Implementing NIR for Polymer Production Process Monitoring Dr
Implementing NIR for Polymer Production Process Monitoring Dr. Hari Narayanan, Senior Product Manager – Spectroscopy, Metrohm USA Inc Introduction while at the bench or pilot plant level it can be used to Polymers are a very important class of organic materials, optimize reaction conditions. Finally, when used in a widely used in many fields due to their unique properties complete feedback-control-loop at the industrial reactor such as tensile strength and viscoelastic behavior under level, significant improvement in product quality can be deformation. With more stringent demands on the quality expected, as well as savings of non-renewable resources, of polymer products and pressure to reduce cost in energy, reactor and personnel time. Creating an effective production and processing, the need for fast, accurate and NIR implementation strategy depends on the type of reliable monitoring methods is greater than ever. polymerization process, the properties of interest, and measurement conditions. Analytical methods, which require time-consuming and intensive sample preparation, are difficult to implement Polymerization Processes effectively in a process or quality control environment, NIR spectroscopy can be used for bulk, solution, emulsion and waste precious time and materials. Efficient process and suspension polymerization monitoring, providing control demands a measurement technique which is information on copolymer composition and distribution, rapid, requires little or no sample preparation and minimal monomer conversion, molecular weight averages, average technical expertise. It should be reliable, rugged and easily particle sizes and more. automated. Bulk polymerization Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy meets those needs by In bulk polymerization, the reaction is carried out in the being both rapid and precise. -

Even though FCS has been mainly applied to biological systems, within the last 15 years an increasing number of studies in material sciences have appeared, demonstrating its enormous potential also for this field. Apart from investigations on colloidal systems, polymer science has benefited significantly from this technique. This review will summarize FCS studies on polymer systems and, in particular, focus on the diffusion of differently sized molecular and macromolecular probes in polymer solutions, classical and responsive polymer gels, polymer melts and glasses. It will be discussed how FCS can be used to determine Received 5th September 2013 translational and rotational diffusion in polymer solutions and at interfaces, scaling laws, micellization Accepted 5th November 2013 and aggregation and, to some extent, polymer structure including heterogeneity. Thus, FCS should be DOI: 10.1039/c3ra44909b considered a powerful complement to other methods for the investigation of polymer structure and www.rsc.org/advances dynamics. Polymers have emerged as the most important materials of the and only combining their strengths will allow us to gain a modern world. The reason for their success lies in the variety of consistent picture of polymers from the nanoscopic to the functions they can cover due to their tunable properties. -

Description To provide the students with the theoretical‐practical knowledge that allows them to understand the relationship between the structure and the properties of the different materials, taking into account the influence of the processing. Specifically, to show the different types of materials, understand their general behavior, their characteristic properties and their potentialities, and recognize the effects of the environment and the conditions of service on their behavior. This understanding is necessary to be able to select the ideal material to participate in the design of reliable and economical components, systems and processes that use the wide spectrum of materials currently available.
