The present invention is directed to a process for separating an olefm copolymer from volatile gases using a flash separator. The flash separator can be used with a solution or high pressure process. The mass transport of volatile gases from the viscous polymer melt is increased.

A portable electric powered or pneumatic powered paint system designed to worn in a typical workman's tool belt and thus accompany the painter as he moves from wall to wall and room to room without the restriction of electrical cords plugged into wall outlets or air hoses connected to an air compressor. The electrically powered embodiment of the invention consists of a paint reservoir, an electric paint pump, a power pack of two or more 18 Volt batteries, a paint applicator and associated paint supply tubing for transfer of paint from the reservoir to the paint applicator. The pneumatic embodiment of the invention replaces the electric paint pump and battery power pack with a pressurized air bottle and pressure regulator. Both embodiments of the invention provide the painter with a self-contained powered painting system.

A rubbery polymer extrusion dryer includes: a cylinder; a liner provided on an inner peripheral surface of the cylinder; a screw rotatably arranged in the liner; wherein the rubbery polymer extrusion dryer conveys a rubbery polymer by the screw rotating in the liner, wherein a plurality of grooves extending in a conveying direction of the rubbery polymer are formed on an inner surface of the liner, and wherein widths of the grooves are 0.1 mm or more and 2 mm or less.

The present invention relates to a method for recovering ethylene and a vinyl-comonomer that is capable of improving the rate of recovery of unreacted monomers remaining after polymerization of ethylene and a vinyl-based comonomer and increasing process efficiency through the reduction of costs.

Specifically, the method for recovering ethylene and a vinyl-comonomer includes: a step of polymerizing ethylene and a vinyl-based comonomer at a pressure of 1500 bar or more; a step of depressurizing the product obtained in the polymerization step including an ethylene-vinyl-based comonomer polymer, ethylene, and a vinyl-based comonomer to 0.1 bar to 5 bar; a step of adding ethylene to the product obtained in the polymerization step under the pressure of 0.1 bar to 5 bar; and a step of separating ethylene and a vinyl-based comonomer from the product obtained in the polymerization step to which the ethylene is added.
