Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to the monitoring of polymers during their processing by the determination of optical scattering properties. According to one aspect of the invention, there is provided a monitoring system for a vessel for polymer processing and the like, comprising a monitoring cell for measuring the optical properties of the contents of the vessel, a feed path and a return path both connecting the cell to the vessel, and a pump connected in the feed or return path. According to another aspect of the invention there is provided a monitoring cell for measuring the optical properties of the contents of the cell, including a source for generating a laser beam through the cell, and a detector for detecting light scattered from the laser beam, preferably a linear camera and an optical system for focusing scattered light thereon.
