[0002] PET polyester reactors are primarily used for experiments such as material synthesis, distillation, and concentration. They are available in a variety of vessel configurations, including single-, double-, and triple-layered. The vessel's internal pressure can be adjusted to a negative pressure to meet experimental requirements. A constant pressure funnel or a regulating valve on the feeding bottle controls the uniform addition of materials, while the heat exchange function of the condenser is utilized to distill and recover the reaction products. The PET polyester reactor has two layers, an inner and outer layer. A circulating fluid at a constant temperature is injected into the inner layer to regulate the temperature of the material. The outer jacket is evacuated to a vacuum state using a vacuum pump to maintain heat.

[0003] In the prior art, the upper cover is mostly installed on the reactor body by bolts or flanges, and a rubber gasket is provided between the upper cover and the reactor body for sealing. After long-term use, the rubber ring is easily pressed out from between the upper cover and the reactor body, resulting in a problem of poor sealing. Utility Model Content
