PALL-RING
Materials
PALL Rings are made of three main groups of materials:
Metals
Mainly carbon steel and alloyed chrome-nickel steels. Special alloys
such as Hastelloy, Incoloy, Monel titanium and zirconium are being
used more and more frequently, and are also processed.
Ceramics
The most frequently processed materials are special stoneware and
special hard porcelain. These ceramic materials are densely sintered,
they have great resistance to high temperatures and a uniform material
structure.
Plastics
Most of the production of thermoplastics consists of polypropylene
grades in various versions. In addition to polyethylene, high-
performance plastics are also used. As a standard procedure, Raschig
uses virgin materials. Regenerates are only processed upon special
request.
Depending on the stress caused by temperature and chemical attack,
the following quality grades of polypropylene must be distinguished:
standard polypropylene (PP)
or permanent temperatures of up to approx. 70 °C (158 °F).
heat-endurance stabilised polypropylene (LTHA)
for permanent operating temperatures of up to 110 °C (230 °F).
Under permanent thermal stress, this specially stabilised material has
approximately twice the service life of normally stabilised
polypropylene.

PALL-RING
30 % fibreglass-reinforced polypropylene (GFR)
This is a fibreglass reinforced grade. The fibreglass part of approx. 30
percent is completely surrounded with plastic. As a result, the chemical
resistance is about the same as that of nonereinforced polypropylene.
Operating temperature range up to approx. 135 °C (275°F).
Polyether sulfone (PES)
a highly temperature-resistant amorphous thermoplastic.
Operating temperature range up to approx. 180 °C (356 °F), cold
resistance down to approx.
-100 °C (-148 °F).
Polyphenylene sulphide (PPS)
a technical high performance thermoplastic, usually in connection with
fibreglass and special mineral fillers. Operating temperature range up
to approx. 220 °C (428 °F), briefly permissible up to 260 °C (500 °F),
cold resistance down to approx. -50 °C (-58 °F).
Liquid crystal polymer (LCP)
operating temperature range, depending on type, up to a maximum of
240 °C (464 °F).
Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)
a thermoplastic fluoroplastic, operating temperature range up to
approx. 140 °C (284 °F), cold resistance down to approx. -40 °C (-40
°F).
Fluoroplastics (TEFLON, e.g. FEP, PFA)
which can be processed by the injection moulding technique, e.g. FEP
100, PFA 340, can also be offered. Depending on the grade, the heat
resistance ranges up to approx. 260 °C (500 °F), while the cold
resistance goes down to -200 °C (-328 °F).
The various application possibilities and plastic grades must be
checked on a case-to-case basis.

Compensation for the
"decrease in volume" for
dumped packings
The values indicated in the tables for dumped packings are valid for a
diameter ratio vessel: packing size of D : d = 20.
Since the arrangement of the packings is less compact near the vessel
wall than in the interior of the bed, the number of packings per cubic
meter increases with the diameter ratio.
The opposite diagram shows by which "allowance" the theoretically
calculated vessel volume for diameter ratios of more than 20 must be
increased in order to completely fill the space required.
If the plastic or metal packings are, for instance, thrown into the column,
this may result in a further decrease in volume due to abnormally
compact packing.
D = diameter of the vessel to be filled
d = diameter or nominal size of the packings

Tower packing factor
The graph shown on page 3 that is valid for all types of tower
packings and for mass system or operating conditions as well as
Table 1 showing the tower packing factors are based on a
Sherwood correlation postulated in 1938, which has been updated
regularly with the level of engineering valid at the time.
Table 1 shows the tower packing factors F in [1/m] that constitute
an important characteristic parameter , seeing that the square root
of the tower packing factors is inversely proportional to the gas flow
rate of the packed bed.
This correlation can clearly be seen by taking the example of 50
mm PALL Rings made of metal with a tower packing factor of 66
and 2" = 50 mm TORUS SADDLES made of ceramics with a tower
packing factor of 130. The tower packing factors show that the gas
flow rate for metal PALL Rings is 40 percent higher than for the
TORUS SADDLES.
Thorough tests have shown that the tower packing factors
indicated in Table 1 cannot be seen at constant values, but rather
that they change within a certain range, depending on the load of
the liquid or gas. The types of tower packings which show the
highest pressure drop, such as RASCHIG RINGS, also tend to
change most with respect to their tower packing factor.
The tower packing factors in Table 1 can be consulted for planning
columns. This results in column diameters that are somewhat
overdimensioned, especially in case of large flow rates of liquid
and particularly when RASCHIG RINGS are used.
Table 2 shows that the fluctuation range of the tower packing
factors F for four different types of tower packings in the most
common sizes as a function of the abscissa value of the generally
applicable pressure drop diagram.
Abscissa value of 3.75 and up are usually found only with a
absorption columns and strippers; values of 0.5 and below occur
with most distillation columns.

  • 6. PALL-RING Materials PALL Rings are made of three main groups of materials: Metals Mainly carbon steel and alloyed chrome-nickel steels. Special alloys such as Hastelloy, Incoloy, Monel titanium and zirconium are being used more and more frequently, and are also processed. Ceramics The most frequently processed materials are special stoneware and special hard porcelain. These ceramic materials are densely sintered, they have great resistance to high temperatures and a uniform material structure. Plastics Most of the production of thermoplastics consists of polypropylene grades in various versions. In addition to polyethylene, high- performance plastics are also used. As a standard procedure, Raschig uses virgin materials. Regenerates are only processed upon special request. Depending on the stress caused by temperature and chemical attack, the following quality grades of polypropylene must be distinguished: standard polypropylene (PP) or permanent temperatures of up to approx. 70 °C (158 °F). heat-endurance stabilised polypropylene (LTHA) for permanent operating temperatures of up to 110 °C (230 °F). Under permanent thermal stress, this specially stabilised material has approximately twice the service life of normally stabilised polypropylene. 4
  • 7. PALL-RING 30 % fibreglass-reinforced polypropylene (GFR) This is a fibreglass reinforced grade. The fibreglass part of approx. 30 percent is completely surrounded with plastic. As a result, the chemical resistance is about the same as that of nonereinforced polypropylene. Operating temperature range up to approx. 135 °C (275°F). Polyether sulfone (PES) a highly temperature-resistant amorphous thermoplastic. Operating temperature range up to approx. 180 °C (356 °F), cold resistance down to approx. -100 °C (-148 °F). Polyphenylene sulphide (PPS) a technical high performance thermoplastic, usually in connection with fibreglass and special mineral fillers. Operating temperature range up to approx. 220 °C (428 °F), briefly permissible up to 260 °C (500 °F), cold resistance down to approx. -50 °C (-58 °F). Liquid crystal polymer (LCP) operating temperature range, depending on type, up to a maximum of 240 °C (464 °F). Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) a thermoplastic fluoroplastic, operating temperature range up to approx. 140 °C (284 °F), cold resistance down to approx. -40 °C (-40 °F). Fluoroplastics (TEFLON, e.g. FEP, PFA) which can be processed by the injection moulding technique, e.g. FEP 100, PFA 340, can also be offered. Depending on the grade, the heat resistance ranges up to approx. 260 °C (500 °F), while the cold resistance goes down to -200 °C (-328 °F). The various application possibilities and plastic grades must be checked on a case-to-case basis. 5
  • 8. Compensation for the "decrease in volume" for dumped packings The values indicated in the tables for dumped packings are valid for a diameter ratio vessel: packing size of D : d = 20. Since the arrangement of the packings is less compact near the vessel wall than in the interior of the bed, the number of packings per cubic meter increases with the diameter ratio. The opposite diagram shows by which "allowance" the theoretically calculated vessel volume for diameter ratios of more than 20 must be increased in order to completely fill the space required. If the plastic or metal packings are, for instance, thrown into the column, this may result in a further decrease in volume due to abnormally compact packing.

  • 11. Tower packing factor The graph shown on page 3 that is valid for all types of tower packings and for mass system or operating conditions as well as Table 1 showing the tower packing factors are based on a Sherwood correlation postulated in 1938, which has been updated regularly with the level of engineering valid at the time. Table 1 shows the tower packing factors F in [1/m] that constitute an important characteristic parameter , seeing that the square root of the tower packing factors is inversely proportional to the gas flow rate of the packed bed. This correlation can clearly be seen by taking the example of 50 mm PALL Rings made of metal with a tower packing factor of 66 and 2" = 50 mm TORUS SADDLES made of ceramics with a tower packing factor of 130. The tower packing factors show that the gas flow rate for metal PALL Rings is 40 percent higher than for the TORUS SADDLES. Thorough tests have shown that the tower packing factors indicated in Table 1 cannot be seen at constant values, but rather that they change within a certain range, depending on the load of the liquid or gas. The types of tower packings which show the highest pressure drop, such as RASCHIG RINGS, also tend to change most with respect to their tower packing factor. The tower packing factors in Table 1 can be consulted for planning columns. This results in column diameters that are somewhat overdimensioned, especially in case of large flow rates of liquid and particularly when RASCHIG RINGS are used. Table 2 shows that the fluctuation range of the tower packing factors F for four different types of tower packings in the most common sizes as a function of the abscissa value of the generally applicable pressure drop diagram. Abscissa value of 3.75 and up are usually found only with a absorption columns and strippers; values of 0.5 and below occur with most distillation columns. 4 , 1 66 130 G G Saddles Torus Rings Pall = = 2 1 G L G G L X ⎟ ⎟ ⎠ ⎞ ⎜ ⎜ ⎝ ⎛ ρ ρ ρ = − 9
