Reactor in Hot Melt Glue Production Line is a key component responsible for the polymerization and chemical reactions that convert raw materials into the adhesive formulation. It provides a controlled environment, typically under elevated temperature and pressure, to facilitate the reaction between monomers, polymers , and other additives. The reactor ensures the desired molecular structure, viscosity, and adhesive properties are achieved. It typically consists of a vessel, heating elements, agitators, and temperature and pressure control systems.
Using a vacuum when preparing hot melt adhesive can:
• Remove air bubbles
• Solvent removal
• Improve uniformity
• Reduce the adverse effects caused by air bubbles
