Abstract:
1. In a method of producing packages containing a curable resin composition and a catalyst composition that react with each other when mixed, comprising providing a partitioned tube for receiving the resin composition and the catalyst composition in separate compartments; delivering a stream of a resin composition into one compartment of the tube; delivering a stream of a catalyst composition in the other compartment of the tube; advancing the partitioned tube and constricting and sealing the partitioned tube at spaced apart intervals and severing the sealed tube to produce a package partitioning the resin composition from the catalyst composition, the improvement comprising: continuously adding solid particulate into the stream of at least one of the catalyst composition and the resin composition and mixing the solid particulate into the stream to produce at least one mixed composition; and controlling the relative amount of solid particulate in the mixed composition by continuously determining the mass of solid particulate added to the mass of the stream, wherein the production of the packages partitioning the resin composition from the catalyst composition is continuous.
