Read the endpoint as it builds.
Spectrally™ puts a self-cleaning Raman probe straight into your alkyd, acrylic and composite-resin reactors. Acid value, hydroxyl value, viscosity, monomer conversion and %solids - read inline, in the reactor without stopping it, in seconds, with no sampling and no reagents.
Esterification of alkyd resins, emulsion and solution polymerization of acrylics, and Pt addition-cure vinyl-silicone composites.
Acid value & viscosity for alkyds, monomer conversion for acrylics - read live instead of inferred after the batch.
The core of the Spectrally platform - around 70% of the measurement portfolio, with a CNN model reading the full spectrum.
Immersion probe in the reactor or line, including ATEX Zone 0 with the 30 mW laser, feeding your PLC / DCS continuously.
Everything a coatings plant asks us - one page per answer.
Six focused pages: the resin chemistries we cover, the parameters we read, how the measurement works, the feasibility results behind it, the regulatory context and the instrument itself.
The reaction does not wait for the lab.
Acid value by ISO 3682 titration, residual monomer by GC and molecular weight by GPC come back 30 to 120 minutes later - and the acid-value titration means stopping the reactor and pulling a sample from a medium above 220 C. By then the reaction has already moved on.
Stop the reactor, pull a sample from above 220 C, run an ISO 3682 acid-value titration, a GC for residual monomer or a GPC for molecular weight, then wait. Every overshoot becomes a solvent correction or an off-spec batch - and the variance often surfaces only after the resin has shipped.
An immersion probe reads the reactor continuously and streams acid value, viscosity and monomer conversion to your control system. The endpoint is caught while you can still act on it - so titration, GC and GPC become verification, not the bottleneck.
Spectrum to a process value, continuously.
Composition read down to single-ppm level.
Turnkey analyzer, X1 PROBE and Spectrally OS.
From feasibility to a running inline installation, in months.
Put it on your resin reactor - starting with your own samples.
Send representative samples or R&D data from your alkyd, acrylic or composite-resin process. We build and validate a chemometric model on your matrix and show you exactly what inline Raman would read on your line - acid value, viscosity and monomer conversion - before any commitment.
