In all the above methods, it is necessary to cure specimens of test samples for each of a series of curing times and then perform the desired test on the vulcanizate. However, in the test for continuous measurement of vulcanization complete information could be obtained with saving in time. The mooney viscometer test approaches this objective. However a weakness of the mooney viscometer test is that the test is completed before a measurable modulus value after the scorch point has been obtained. This is because the test sample is destroyed after the induction period is passed due to tearing by continuous rotation of the rotor whether small or large. To overcome this deficiency and to provide a total cure curve for the entire vulcanization cycle, a series of instruments called cure meters was developed. In each of these instruments the stiffness or modulus of the compound was chosen as parameters for vulcanization continuously. The Vulkameter developed by Bayers, Germany was the first of the cure meters developed.

Hydrazine is currently prepared via a plethora of methods, the most popular of which is the Raschig process, which involves controlled hypochlorite oxidation leading to hydrazine formation. The Raschig process suffers from the formation of a stoichiometric quantity of sodium chloride by-product. The Bayer Ketazine process employs acetone to trap the hydrazine as dimethyl-ketazine. The acetone is re-cycled but sodium chloride is again formed. 

A multicomponent calibrator is employed for calibrating the Seralyzer. Two calibrators enable a 2-point calibration. Human serum is used as initial material to which substances have been added by a special preparatory procedure. Thus one of each calibrator is available with concentrations (activities) in the low and in the high range. The concentrations (activities) were determined by means of routine wet chemical methods no details have been stated. Few studies are available on the frequency of calibration, i.e. on its constancy. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration prescribes a seven-day calibration rhythm that has been increased to 14 and 30 days, respectively, for some components. The manufacturer, Bayer Diagnostic, informs us that in future the calibration cycle will be 30 days.

DMC catalysts are considered to be the ones that perform best at this time for PO polymerisation initiated by hydroxyl groups. Bayer developed the first continuous process, with a very high productivity, for the synthesis of polyether polyols with DMC catalysts (IMPACT Catalyst Technology). In a short and simple production cycle, a large variety of polyether diols of very low unsaturation for elastomers, sealants, coatings and low monol content polyether triols destined for flexible polyurethane foams are obtained. This is one of the best developments in the last few years in the field of polyether polyol synthesis [2],... 

Ampacet claims that it has been able to lower the range of trigger temperatures over which azodicarbonamide masterbatches work, from the usual 190-205 °C down to 170-200 °C. Bayer sells a modified azodicarboxylic acid diamide-based blowing agent called Porofor ADC/Z-C2 for foaming crosslinked polyethylene. It is claimed to allow the manufacture of lower density foams at conventional oven temperatures, with shorter production cycles than standard ADC diamides. 

At Bayer Biotechnology, we usually develop a freeze-drying cycle in five steps. First, the formulation is characterized. Second, based on the understanding of the formulation, the process is optimized. Third, the range of the critical process parameters is found. Fourth, the process is scaled up and transferred to production. Fifth, the process at the production scale is validated and qualified. Here, we focus only on the formulation characterization.
