Abstract
Abstract A process is described for the production of a curable multi-component reaction mixture (and, in particular, a polyurethane), containing filler in which the reaction components are premixed and then mixed with the dry filler in a friction mixer having a conically shaped screw rotatable in a conical mixing chamber. The friction mixer is preferably operated under a fractional load at a low rotational speed.

Independent Claim
173 words
A process for the production of a curable multi-component reaction mixture containing fillers comprising: a) premixing the reaction components in a high pressure injection mixer, b) introducing the pre-mixed reaction components and dry filler into a friction mixer, said friction mixer having a conically shaped screw having a multiplicity of screw windings, said screw being rotatable in a conical mixing chamber with a gap formed between the wall of said chamber and the screw and operating under a fractional load, with said screw rotating at a speed of from 500 to 5,000 rpm, and wherein the ratio of the volume between the screw windings to the volume of said gap is from about 1:1 to about 5:1, c) introducing the mixture of step b) into a mold, d) stopping the supply of reaction components and filler once said mold is filled, and e) increasing the speed of said screw to 12,000 rpm or higher and bringing said screw into contact with the wall of said mixing chamber in order to clean said chamber.
