Water Treatment Polymer
Water Treatment Polymer Water treatment polymer is used in the cleaning and recycling phase of processing waste water. It is typically shear and heat sensitive as well as potentially corrosive for some metals.
Triethylene Glycol (Teg) For Gas Dehydration
Triethylene Glycol (Teg) For Gas Dehydration Triethylene Glycol is used as a liquid desiccant to remove the water from natural gas. The hot glycol is injected into the gas pipeline at high pressures to dehydrate of the natural gas coming out of the ground.
Toothpaste
Toothpastes Toothpastes are used to keep teeth clean and healthy. Typically it is abrasive to assist in breaking up plaque that has formed on teeth. Usually it is also fairly viscous.
Sugar Magma
Sugar Magma Sugar magma is a mixture of sugar crystals and liquid. It has a high viscosity and is abrasive. The crystals within the magma can be damaged, so need to be handled with larger, slower running pumps.
Starch
Starch Starch is derived from corn, arrowroot or potatoes. It is used for making adhesives, for the sizing and finishing of textiles, in foods, in sizing paper, in making explosives, in medicines, face powders, cosmetics, bookbinding, making glucose, malt sugar, caramel and in cattle feeds. It is shear sensitive (thickens) and viscosity varies from a…
Solvents
Solvents The wide range of viscosity of various solvents plays a key role in determining the best pump for handling the application. Pump construction will ultimately be driven by the specific liquid being handled and the construction that offers the greatest chemical resistance and is the most viscosity appropriate.
Soaps
Soaps Kettle soap, soap stock, soap skimmings, and liquid soap are a mixture of sodium salts of various fatty acids of natural oils and fats. Common soap is largely a mixture of the sodium salts of palmitic, stearic and oleic acids. Rosin soaps for laundry purposes are made by adding a soap made from rosin…
Shampoo
Shampoo Shampoos are used for personal and pet care hygiene products. They typically are shear-thinning mixtures and lubricating.
Rubber Cement
Rubber Cement Rubber cement, also referred to as contact cement covers a wide range of materials; some may be emulsions sensitive to shearing; others may be flammable because of their vehicles; others may be water solutions, which are used in a variety of adhesive-type applications. Due to the variance in material and solvent used, the…
Resins
Resins Resins are high viscosity liquids with potentially shear sensitive (thinning) components, and made up of solvents, waxes, surfactants, and semi-solid resin particles all with various chemical compatibility concerns. In some cases, containing pigments that bring with them abrasive wear concerns.
