Problems solved by technology

However, the conductivity measurement device in this method The size of the probe is too large compared to the microchannel, and it cannot be inserted into the microchannel for further investigation. row contact measurement , it is impossible to measure the metastable region of the micro-scale flow system
[0005] It can be seen that none of the methods for measuring the metastable zone in the prior art can solve the problem of measuring the width of the crystallized metastable zone in the flow system at the micro scale.

Abstract

The device for measuring the width of the crystallization metastable zone of the micro-scale flow system of the present invention includes a temperature control system, a microscope, a camera, a computer and a syringe pump. The temperature control system consists of a constant temperature circulating water bath, a first heat preservation jacket, a second Composed of insulation jacket and temperature sensor. The method for measuring the width of the crystallization metastable zone of the micro-scale flow system of the present invention uses the above-mentioned measuring device to inject the tested solution whose temperature is the initial test temperature and reaches saturation at the initial test temperature into the microchannel at a constant flow rate through a syringe pump In this method, combined with the magnification effect of the microscope on the microchannel, the camera is used to take real-time pictures of the measured liquid in the microchannel to capture the crystallization state of the fluid, obtain the crystallization point temperature, and calculate the difference between the initial test temperature and the crystallization point temperature , the difference is the width of the crystallization metastable zone of the microscale flow system of the measured solution. The device and method of the present invention provide quantitative data analysis support for research on microchannel-crystal coupling technology.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of crystallization data measurement, in particular to a device and method for measuring the width of a crystallization metastable zone in a microscale flow system. Background technique [0002] In the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, crystallization, as an effective separation and purification technology, is widely used in the preparation and purification of fine chemicals and biological products. In order to obtain crystal products with required quality indicators, industrial crystallization is generally operated in the crystallization metastable region. The so-called metastable zone refers to the region (range) between the solubility curve and the supersolubility curve of the solution system. The so-called solubility is the quality of the solute dissolved when a solid substance reaches saturation in 100g of solvent at a certain temperature. The so-called Supersolubility is the limit solubility of a solute at...
