Spent resin is transferred from the column through a 10-mm-diam tube to a resin storage tank. The flush water continuously overflows the storage tank through a screen to the ORNL Intermediate Level Liquid Waste System. 

DSA analysis of Resin 5208 exhibits two dispersion regions. The first is related to gelation and the second is related to vitrification. The first DSA peak occurs on the attainment of a value for the resin storage modulus slightly lower than that of the rubbery plateau. The first TBA peak occurs at the point where the composite (braid and resin) attains measurable rigidity.

In most processes, for either small or large production runs, the cost of the plastics used compared to the total cost of production in the plant may be at least 60 percent. The proportion might be only 30 percent, but it is more likely to exceed 60 percent so it is important to handle material with care and to eliminate unnecessary production problems and waste. Where small-quantity users or expensive engineering resins are concerned, containers such as bags and gaylords are acceptable but for large commercial and custom processors, these delivery methods are bulky and costly. Resin storage in this form is also expensive. 

If computer-integrated resin handling systems are considered, one must compare their operating procedures with one s process requirements. These process requirements describe the flow of resin and product through the system, which determines the system s electronic architecture. Pertinent considerations include batch vs. continuous operations, the type and number of conveying lines, resin storage and distribution, quality control means and procedures, inventory control, the type and quantity of process parameter sensors, the type and quantity of controlled devices, modes (automatic, semiautomatic, manual, and/or shutdown modes), process information, process management controls, and centralized vs. local operation (Fig. 9-1). 

Resin storage silos are almost always located outdoors and, in many cases, at a considerable distance from the ultimate point of use of the material in the plant. The use of intermediate surge bins (see Fig. 7.17) enhances system flexibility in these cases by providing the following ... 

In usual RTM applications, the resin is kept in the reservoir of the injector at room temperature, and the mold is heated for the cross-linking chemical reaction of the resin. In an ideal injector, the resin storage tank and the connection tubes should be heated to keep the resin at a desired temperature (usually at the same temperature of the mold), otherwise the resin temperature may vary due to the heat transfer between the mold and the resin as it propagates. For example, the heater jacket around the resin cylinder in Fig. 9.16a allows one to control the resin temperature up to 175°C. Additional heater jackets or insulator jackets are placed around the inlet tubes between the injector and the mold...
