An analysis method and apparatus are disclosed for analysing an absorption filtering medium that filters volatile organic substances in a process gas in a plant for dehumidifying polymer granules, with a fan that generates a flow of gas through the S filtering medium, an analyzer of the total concentration of the organic carbon, a sensor to detect the pressure downstream of the filtering medium, in which the saturation state and/or the absorbent capacity and/or the deterioration over time of the filtering medium is determined by a comparison of the measured concentrations of total organic carbon in the flow of gas upstream and downstream of the filtering medium.

One aspect of the present invention relates to a method for producing a hot-melt adhesive, comprising: introducing a fluid into a heating kneader while or after kneading a hot-melt adhesive material in a liquid state, at an amount of 0.3 parts by mass or more with respect to 100 parts by mass of the hot-melt adhesive material; and performing vacuuming while heating stirring or dispersing the hot-melt adhesive material and the fluid so as to come into contact with each other.

Embodiments relate a method for processing recyclable polymer material. The method may include grinding the recyclable polymer material to produce polymer flake material, washing the polymer flake material, removing contaminants from the polymer flake material with a flake sorter, and removing lightweight materials from the polymer flake material with an elutriator. The method may also include extruding the polymer flake material with a virgin to form an extruded polymer blend, degassing the extruded polymer blend, filtering the extruded polymer blend, and pelletizing the polymer blend. The method may also include passing the polymer blend through a silo with a homogenizer system equipped with hot air insufflation.

An analysis method and apparatus for treating polymer granules at least part of which comes from post-consumer recycling, in which a flow of a process gas is purified from contaminating vapours by traversing, in sequence, first a dust collector filter that retains the solid particles contained in the gas, then a first side of a gas/gas heat exchanger in which the process gas surrenders heat, then a condenser in which the process gas is cooled to below the boiling point of the contaminating vapours to form condensate, then a second side of the exchanger in which the process gas recovers a part of the previously transferred heat, to then enter a container where the polymer granules are treated.

A high temperature resistant polyimide film and its preparation method. The present invention relates to a polyimide film and its preparation method and solves the problems of honeycomb's and skin panel's core adhesive-polyimide film with insufficient heat resistance, no climbing of bonding core structure and adhesive fillet formation. The high temperature resistant polyimide film is made by polyimide solution, inorganic filler modifier and interface coupling agent by the steps of: under specific temperature and stirring conditions, adding inorganic filler modifier and interface coupling agent to polyimide solution, stirring to obtain the adhesive agent; filtering and degassing the adhesive agent, casting to a stainless steel drum with carrier cloth and release paper to obtain a self-supporting film; then heating and annealing to obtain the final polyimide film. The present invention is applied to high temperature resistant polyimide film and its preparation method.
