Abstract: A low activation temperature heat seal hot melt adhesive for packaging applications based on a blend of metallocene catalyzed polyolefin polymer, tackifying resin, wax and other optional additives. In order to achieve the high viscosity suitable for an extrusion heat seal application, the adhesive composition of the invention is highly loaded with polymer, and thus should have a viscosity of about 50,000 centipoise or more measured at a temperature of 300° F. Accordingly, the hot melt adhesive composition contains about 50% to about 90% by weight of metallocene catalyzed polyolefin polymer, about 5% to about 50% by weight of tackifying resin, about 0.5% to about 40% by weight of wax, about 0.1% to about 5% by weight of a stabilizer or antioxidant, and 0% to about 25% by weight of optional additives. The hot melt adhesive composition must have an activation temperature of about 160° F. or less, and provide a minimum peel force of about 1.

The fluidized bed combustor is operatively coupled to the liquid organic hydrogen carrier dehydrogenation reactor. Advantageously, at least a portion of heat generated by the fluidized bed combustor may be transferred to the liquid organic hydrogen carrier dehydrogenation reactor. In this manner hydrogen production and transportation is both energy efficient, low carbon intensity and cost-effective.

Abstract: A method for preparing a supercritical fluid by deep-sea pressure is provided and belongs to the technical field of supercritical fluid preparation. The method includes the following steps of: placing a low-pressure fluid in a closed flexible container, sending the closed flexible container down to a location of a sea at a depth where a seawater pressure meets a requirement by using a powered or unpowered traction device, leaving the flexible container standing still until a volume of the flexible container does not change, wrapping the closed flexible container with a rigid pressure-bearing container, transferring the closed flexible container to the sea surface by the powered or unpowered traction device, and taking out the fluid in the flexible container as supercritical fluid. Then the supercritical fluid is produced. Therefore, the process of preparing supercritical (high pressure) liquid in the deep-sea is safer and more stable than the preparation way on land.
