Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of chemical synthesis, and in particular to a production process of sodium methyl silicate powder. Background Art

[0002] Sodium methyl silicate is an organic compound. Since sodium methyl silicate is easily decomposed by weak acids, it decomposes into methyl silicic acid when it encounters water and carbon dioxide in the air, and quickly polymerizes to form polymethylsiloxane with waterproof properties. Therefore, it is usually used as a waterproof material for new rigid buildings. It can be used as a waterproofing agent for materials such as concrete, limestone, gypsum products, red bricks, stucco and newly-made bricks and tiles, and can also be used as an additive for mortar.

[0003] At present, the simplest preparation method of sodium methyl silicate is to react methyl silicic acid with sodium hydroxide solution to produce sodium methyl silicate. However, since methyl silicic acid usually contains impurities, it is difficult to make the reactants react completely if it reacts directly with sodium hydroxide solution, which easily causes residual methyl silicic acid or excessive sodium hydroxide solution, resulting in waste of resources, and thus causing the sodium methyl silicate powder obtained after drying to contain solid impurities of sodium hydroxide, affecting the purity of the sodium methyl silicate powder.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a production process of sodium methyl silicate powder which reduces waste and improves the purity of sodium methyl silicate powder. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the object of the present invention is to provide a production process of sodium methyl silicate powder.

[0035] Furthermore, the step S3 of introducing nitrogen to exhaust air specifically includes the following steps:

[0052] Figure 1 The present invention is a flowchart of the production process of sodium methyl silicate powder used in the embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0053] The present invention is further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0054] Example 1

[0055] A production process of sodium methyl silicate powder, such as Figure 1 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0056] S1: Add sodium hydroxide solution to dissolve and react

[0057] Nitrogen is introduced into the reactor to discharge the air in the reactor until the first nitrogen concentration detector in the reactor detects that the nitrogen concentration in the reactor is 99%, the first nitrogen concentration detector sends a signal to the controller, and after the controller receives the signal sent by the first nitrogen concentration detector, it controls the feed assembly to add methylsilicic acid into the reactor until the first gravity sensor in the reactor detects that the gravity in the reactor no longer increases, the first gravity sensor sends a signal to the controller, and after the controller receives the signal sent by the first gravity sensor, it controls the hydraulic pump to start, and pumps sodium hydroxide solution into the reactor at a uniform speed through the hydraulic pump, and when the first gravity sensor detects that the gravity in the reactor increases again, the first gravity sensor sends a signal to the controller again, and after the controller receives the signal sent by the first gravity sensor again, it controls the agitator to stir at a rate of 500r / min, and controls the heater to heat to 80°C to react until the liquid solid content detector in the reactor detects that the solid content in the liquid system in the reactor is 15%, the liquid solid content detector sends a signal to the controller, and after the controller receives the signal sent by the liquid solid content detector, it controls the hydraulic pump to close, and after continuing the reaction for 1h, a suspension is obtained;

[0058] S2: Check pH and add reactants

[0059] If the pH detector in the reactor detects that the pH of the suspension prepared in step S1 is less than 6, the pH detector sends a signal to the controller once. After receiving the signal sent by the pH detector once, the controller controls the hydraulic pump to start and continues to add sodium hydroxide solution to the suspension until the pH detector detects that the pH is 6. The pH detector sends a signal to the controller again. After receiving the two signals sent by the pH detector, the controller controls the hydraulic pump to close and the agitator to close, and controls the centrifugal component of the reactor to start, centrifuge the suspension to obtain sodium methyl silicate solution and solid impurities. If the pH detector in the reactor detects that the pH of the suspension is greater than 7, the pH detector sends a signal to the controller three times. After receiving the three signals sent by the pH detector, the controller controls the sprayer in the reactor to start, and sprays methyl silicate into the reactor at a uniform speed through the sprayer until the pH detector reaches 6. When the pH detector detects that pH=6, the pH detector sends a signal to the controller again. After the controller receives four signals sent by the pH detector, it controls the sprayer and the stirrer to be closed, and controls the centrifugal component of the reactor to be opened, and the suspension is centrifuged to obtain a sodium methyl silicate solution and solid impurities. If the pH detector in the reactor detects that the pH of the suspension is 6≤pH≤7, the pH detector sends a signal to the controller five times. After the controller receives five signals sent by the pH detector, it controls the centrifugal component of the reactor to be opened, and the suspension is centrifuged to obtain a sodium methyl silicate solution and solid impurities. First, part of the sodium hydroxide solution is added to react with the methyl silicate, and then the pH is detected to determine whether the reaction is complete. If it is not complete, the reactant is supplemented, thereby reducing the waste of methyl silicate and reducing the sodium hydroxide impurities in the prepared sodium methyl silicate, thereby improving the purity of the sodium methyl silicate powder;

[0060] S3: Introduce nitrogen and exhaust air

[0061] The sodium methyl silicate solution obtained in step S2 passes through the filter membrane and enters the concentrator along the slide pipe. When the second gravity sensor in the concentrator detects that the gravity in the concentrator increases, the second gravity sensor sends a signal to the controller. After receiving the signal sent by the second gravity sensor, the controller controls the air pump to start. The air pump first extracts the hot nitrogen in the reactor after the reaction in step S2 is completed, and then passes the hot nitrogen into the concentrator. The cold air in the concentrator is discharged from the air outlet valve in the concentrator through the hot nitrogen until the second nitrogen concentration detector in the concentrator detects that the nitrogen concentration in the concentrator is 99%. The second nitrogen concentration detector sends a signal to the controller. After receiving the signal sent by the second nitrogen concentration detector, the controller controls the air pump and the air outlet valve to close. Nitrogen is passed into the reactor and the concentrator to exhaust the air in the concentrator to prevent the generated sodium methyl silicate from being decomposed when it encounters water and carbon dioxide.

[0063] Subsequently, the controller controls the concentrator to heat to 90°C, and concentrates the sodium methyl silicate solution obtained in step S3 until the liquid level sensor in the concentrator detects that the liquid level of the sodium methyl silicate solution has dropped to 1 / 3 of the original level. The liquid level sensor sends a signal to the controller. After receiving the signal sent by the liquid level sensor, the controller controls the heating temperature of the concentrator to be adjusted to 120°C, and continues heating for 2 hours for drying to obtain solid sodium methyl silicate. Subsequently, the controller controls the concentrator to stop heating, and controls the vacuum valve of the grinder to open, and processes the inside of the grinder into a vacuum environment with a vacuum degree of -0.2MPa. By using the controller to connect sensors and detectors with various machines and equipment, automated production is realized, the process is simple, and the effect of saving manpower is achieved.

[0064] S5: Grinding and milling

[0065] The discharge assembly of the concentrator was opened, and the sodium methyl silicate solid was put into the grinder through the discharge assembly. After grinding for 30 minutes, the solid was sieved to obtain sodium methyl silicate powder with a particle size of 100 mesh.
