Title: The Innovative Contributions of Camille Borer
Introduction
Camille Borer is a prominent inventor based in Flurlingen, Switzerland. She has made significant contributions to the field of polymer processing, particularly in the development of methods and devices for the treatment of polyester materials. With a total of eight patents to her name, Borer's work has had a substantial impact on the industry.
Latest Patents
One of her latest patents is titled "Method and device for the continuous polycondensation of polyester material in the solid phase." This invention focuses on a method and device that allows for the continuous polycondensation of polyester material, specifically in the form of partially crystalline granulate. The aim is to achieve a high product throughput while maintaining a low initial intrinsic viscosity (IV). This is accomplished by utilizing a rapid heating process of a thin product layer, followed by a solid-state polymerization (SSP) treatment, resulting in a low residence time of 1-10 minutes during recrystallization.
Another notable patent is "Continuous thermal treatment of bulk material." This invention relates to a device designed for the continuous heat treatment of granulated materials, particularly for the crystallization of polymer granulate such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET). The device features several adjacent fluidization chambers equipped with sieve plates, allowing for the fluidization of granulate through a gas inlet. The design ensures that the first chamber occupies a significant portion of the overall volume, facilitating efficient processing of the granulated material.
