Popis: | An intermediate-scale fluorination system, capable of undertaking fluorination at sub atmospheric pressure—up to 348 K under static and dynamic conditions—comprising a 112 L reactor was designed, constructed and commissioned. The fluorination system is capable of producing more realistic flow patterns—along with heat and mass transfer effects—which could be better used to evaluate various fluorination recipes. A factorial design of experiment was used to perform fluorination tests using commercially produced 100 mL high density polyethylene (HDPE) bottles. The effect of bottle position within the reactor and the effect of fluorination on the characteristics of the bottles was investigated using gravimetric analysis, Infrared Spectroscopy (IR), and permeation tests. |
