Abstract
An apparatus and method for collecting compounds from a mold press is described herein. A paper substrate is loaded into a mold press in the same manner as a conventional substrate to collect compounds during set-up, cleaning and/or conditioning cycles. The used paper substrate with the cured compound is then discarded after use. Use of a paper substrate provides significant cost savings over the currently used metal-based substrate.
