Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of polymer materials, and in particular relates to resin microspheres for sensitizing emulsion explosives and applications thereof. Background Art

[0002] Resin microspheres are polymer particles with a core-shell structure, which usually contain low-boiling alkanes inside and slightly cross-linked thermoplastic polymers outside. When the resin microspheres are heated, the hydrocarbon substances inside vaporize to generate pressure, and the capsule wall softens at the same time. If the thermoplasticity of the capsule wall and the pressure generated by the vaporization of the internal hydrocarbons are properly matched, the microcapsules can show good expansion performance.

[0003] Emulsion explosives are the most widely used industrial explosives in China. At present, the emulsion explosives industry generally uses sensitization methods such as chemical sensitization, physical sensitization, and composite sensitization. Among them, physical sensitization is to add a large amount of gas-carrying substances into the latex matrix, and use the bubbles carried by the substance to achieve the sensitization of the emulsion explosives. Resin microspheres have good thermomechanical properties, excellent elasticity and compressive resistance, can reduce the density of emulsion explosives, excellent chemical resistance, and excellent foaming properties. It has become an excellent choice for sensitized emulsion explosives. At present, the main technical indicators for evaluating the quality of emulsion explosives include density, explosive performance, and storage performance, but there are few studies on the pumping stability of emulsion explosives by resin microsphere structure. The pumping stability of emulsion explosives is a parameter that characterizes its dynamic stability in production. During the production process of emulsion explosives, the conveying devices such as screw pumps and vane pumps on the production line will destroy its stable structure, resulting in different degrees of crystal precipitation, thickening, hardening, and other problems.

[0077] The following is the test method of the performance parameters involved in the present invention:

[0078] Microsphere expansion ratio determination: Using a metallographic analysis system, the diameters of about 300 heat-expandable microcapsules at the initial expansion temperature and the contraction temperature were measured, and the average particle sizes of the microspheres before and after foaming were calculated, which were d0 and d0, respectively. The microsphere expansion ratio was obtained as d / d0;

[0079] Average particle size of microspheres: weigh about 1g of washed and dried microcapsules, add about 30mL of deionized water, stir evenly and disperse by ultrasonic for 3min; measure the average particle size of microspheres by laser particle size analyzer;

[0080] Foaming performance test of microspheres: Take a certain amount of dry microcapsules, evenly disperse them on a cover glass, and place them on a precision thermostatic hot stage. Heat the hot stage at a rate of 10°C / min and film the foaming process. According to the readings on the precision thermostatic hot stage, record the initial expansion temperature and contraction temperature, and calculate the stable foaming temperature range based on this;

[0081] Pumping stability of emulsion explosives: The emulsion explosives were repeatedly pumped 8 times, and the changes in the colloid were observed microscopically;

[0082] Emulsion explosive viscosity: Brookfield DV-I viscometer (5-axis, 10r / min) was used to measure the viscosity at a temperature of 30-70°C.

[0083] Stability of emulsion explosive system: Take 50g of emulsion explosive and place it in a watch glass. After being tested at different temperatures (-12~38℃) and humidity (35%~90%) throughout the year, measure the resistance of different samples once a month with a conductivity meter to observe the state changes.

[0085]

[0086]

[0087] The preparation method of the emulsion explosive is as follows: adding ammonium nitrate and sodium nitrate into water, heating and dissolving to form a water phase, and controlling the temperature at 85-95°C; heating and melting the composite oil phase, and also controlling the temperature at 85-95°C; placing the oil phase in an emulsifier, and controlling the stirring speed to be 1000r / min; adding the water phase to the oil phase while stirring, emulsifying for 3 minutes, stopping the machine to discharge the material, and obtaining an emulsified matrix; placing the resin microspheres in a 100°C environment to foam for 5 minutes, adding them to the emulsified matrix, and mixing and stirring evenly to obtain the emulsion explosive.

[0092] Table 4 Properties of emulsion explosives

[0093]

[0094]

[0095] From the data in Table 1, it can be seen that the foaming performance of resin microspheres 1 to 5 is similar to that of unmodified heat-expandable microspheres, the expansion temperature and the contraction temperature are slightly increased, and the stable foaming temperature range is slightly increased; the foaming ratio and the average particle size are basically unchanged; this shows that modifying the surface of the resin microspheres will not have a significant effect on their foaming performance.

[0096] It can be seen from the data of Examples 3 to 6 in Table 4 that with the increase of the content of resin microspheres in the emulsion explosive, its pumping stability gradually increases, the system stability first increases and then decreases, and the viscosity gradually increases; it can be seen from the data of Examples 5, 7, 8, 9, and 10 that the longer the alkyl chain and the polyethylene glycol chain modified on the surface of the resin microspheres in the system, the better the pumping stability of the system and the lower the viscosity, but because the polyethylene glycol chain has the characteristic of absorbing water, the insulation performance of the system is reduced and the stability of the system is relatively low; it can be seen from the data of Comparative Examples 1 to 2 that too much or too little addition of resin microspheres will lead to a decrease in the performance of the emulsion explosive; it can be seen from the data of Comparative Example 3 that the addition of unmodified thermal expansion microspheres will result in poor pumping stability of the emulsion explosive and excessive viscosity, which will affect its processing performance, but because no water-absorbing polyethylene glycol group is introduced, the system stability is relatively high.

The preferred embodiments do not describe all the details in detail, nor do they limit the invention to the specific implementation methods described. Obviously, many modifications and changes can be made according to the content of this specification.
