Manufacturing Safer Silicones with Thin Film Evaporation

Silicone Purification

LCI thin film evaporators are used to purify and devolitize silicones to safe PPM levels. Our evaporation technology effectively removes silicone cyclics from polysiloxane oils to provide silicone manufacturers with a product that meets even the most stringent safety and regulatory standards for consumer products.

Agitated thin film evaporators from LCI have the unique ability to effectively process highly viscous and temperature sensitive products without degradation. Our evaporation systems are designed to process even the most difficult to handle products by utilizing a combination of:

  • Extremely Short Residence Time
  • Effective Heat Transfer
  • High Turbulence
  • Rapid Surface Renewal
  • Operation under deep vacuum
Manufacturing Safer Silicone

This combination allows the rapid removal of volatile components to PPM levels in a scalable and environmentally friendly equipment package, and continuous processing of provides increased production rates and efficiency.
