Precipitated calcium carbonate seed crystal containing aragonite crystalline phase and preparation method thereof

Abstract

The invention provides precipitated calcium carbonate seed crystal containing an aragonite crystalline phase and a preparation method thereof. The precipitated calcium carbonate seed crystal containing the aragonite crystalline phase is characterized in that weight content of an aragonite phase is greater than 80%, and the particle size of the seed crystal D50 is greater than or equal to 0.1 [mu]m and less than or equal to 0.2 [mu]m. The precipitated calcium carbonate seed crystal can be used for preparing the precipitated calcium carbonate containing a metastable crystalline phase, and also can be directly used in the corresponding industrial field. The method has the advantages of low cost and obvious process advantage, and the technology bias that strontium salts such as strontium chloride cannot be used to prepare the precipitated calcium carbonate seed crystal containing the aragonite crystalline phase in the prior art is overcome. The provided technology has wide application prospect based on the above advantages.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a precipitated calcium carbonate crystal seed containing aragonite crystal phase and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Calcium carbonate is the most widely used white filler in the world, widely used in rubber, plastics, coatings, papermaking and other fields. Calcium carbonate has three crystal phases of calcite, aragonite and vaterite, among which the calcite phase is a thermodynamically stable crystal phase, and the aragonite and vaterite crystal phases are metastable crystal phases, which are easily converted into calcite crystal phases under certain conditions. Aragonite calcium carbonate is generally needle-shaped or rod-shaped, with an average refractive index of 1.63, which is higher than the average refractive index of calcite calcium carbonate (1.58). Due to its high refractive index and special shape, aragonite phase calcium carbonate is beneficial to increase the gloss of calendered coated...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

with MgCl 2 The main disadvantage of the preparation process for additives is that MgCl 2 The consumption is large, the cost is high, and the process requirements are complicated

[0005] There are several problems with using strontium compounds as additives: one is the high price of strontium compounds, which leads to an increase in production costs; the other is the complex mechanism of strontium, which requires a high carbonization process

As disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 59-223225, compounds such as strontium halogen compounds, oxides, oxy-acid salts, and organic acid salts are used as additives to prepare calcium carbonate containing aragonite crystal phases. The calcium carbonate obtained under most conditions The proportion of arsonite phase is >80%; while the content disclosed in Chinese patent application CN102834356 shows that other compounds of strontium, such as strontium chloride or strontium acetate, etc. are used as additives to prepare precipitated calcium carbonate with a relatively low arsonite phase content (<70%) , so it is not suitable as an additive for the preparation of precipitated calcium carbonate with high aragonite phase content
