Chemical and Materials

Following our proven approach, ProSensus successfully reformulated several products for a manufacturer of high-performance coatings using a smaller set of raw ingredients. Coatings enhance the performance, durability and finish of painted surfaces and are commonly used in a variety of industries including automotive, marine, aviation, infrastructure and construction.       Recently, many owners of [...]

Empowering Dow Chemical to fill the demand for low-volume, high-urgency orders of custom specialty chemicals using ProSensus’ RPD framework.

An emulsion polymer process was producing off-spec product in 10% of its batches. By implementing advanced batch control, they were able to completely eliminate the bad batches.

ProSensus worked with Mondelez, a global food manufacturer, to establish specifications on new incoming raw material lots to avoid accepting lots that pose a high risk on the final product quality.

Specifications on individual properties are often misleading. ProSensus calculates multivariate specification limits so you can accept/reject and compensate for variations in raw materials. Read about examples in the chemical, pharmaceutical, and food industries.

By implementing ProSensus’ ProBatch Control technology, a leading snack food producer reduced the standard deviation on their product quality 50% and also significantly increased process capacity.

A herbicide manufacturer was producing many out-of-specification batches in their batch dryer. Multivariate analysis was used to troubleshoot why unacceptable chemical structural changes were occurring.

ProSensus developed an image-based soft sensor to predict the carbon content in a basic oxygen furnace using multivariate analysis.

Irving Pulp & Paper chose ProSensus to create a soft sensor to stabilize their lime kiln process. Using real-time process measurements and images from a camera in the kiln, ProSensus developed a soft sensor that predicted kiln temperature hours in advance.

Multivariate analysis (MVA) is a powerful tool that leading polyolefin companies use to gain powerful insights into their process and advance their product development efforts. ProSensus has the expertise to build global multi-block models that represent your entire process from start to end. This approach allows you to build a predictive model relating raw material [...]

ProSensus worked with its client to select the right blending ratios and process conditions to achieve target properties in the final product while minimizing raw material costs. What are bioplastics? The term "bioplastics" is often used interchangeably with "biodegradable plastics". However, the most commonly used definition, as defined by the industry advocate European Plastics, states [...]
