Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of material preparation, and in particular relates to a preparation device and a preparation process of zinc oxide whiskers. Background Art

[0002] Zinc oxide whiskers are a type of zinc oxide crystal form with special properties and structures, mainly including four-needle zinc oxide whiskers. The specific steps for preparing zinc oxide whiskers by solid-state reaction method are to evenly mix zinc compounds and additives (such as borates, halides, etc.) in a certain proportion. The amount of additives added is generally 1%-10% of the raw material mass. The mixed raw materials are then placed in a high-temperature furnace and reacted at 800-1000°C for several hours. During the reaction, the raw materials undergo a solid-state reaction under the catalytic action of the additives to generate zinc oxide whiskers.

[0003] During the solid-state reaction process, zinc oxide whiskers tend to agglomerate together, affecting their dispersibility and performance. This is due to the charge imbalance on the whisker surface, van der Waals forces, and other effects during the reaction. At this time, it is necessary to add a dispersant. The dispersant can be adsorbed on the whisker surface to reduce surface energy and reduce agglomeration. However, in solid-state reactions at low temperatures and low reaction rates, the surface charge distribution of the generated zinc oxide whiskers is uniform, and there is no electrostatic attraction between the particles. At the same time, the whiskers grow slowly and have enough time to disperse naturally in the reaction vessel. In this case, no dispersant is needed. If a dispersant is added blindly, additional impurity components will be introduced. Because the dispersant itself is a foreign substance, the additional dispersant added will remain in the zinc oxide whisker product, which will affect the electrical properties and stability of the product when used in subsequent fields such as electronic materials that require high purity. Moreover, these additional impurities will interfere with the results when the whiskers are chemically analyzed or used in some high-precision experimental studies. Summary of the invention

[0013] A process for preparing zinc oxide whiskers comprises the following steps: S1. By setting up a multi-stage feeding mechanism and a feeding control mechanism, the preparation amount of zinc oxide whiskers is accurately controlled based on production needs, and the amount of additives is synchronously adjusted based on the amount of raw materials used; S2. By setting the dispersant addition confirmation mechanism, it is automatically determined whether the dispersant needs to be added and the amount of dispersant added based on the amount of raw materials used; S3. The mixing and feeding mechanism is set up to mix the raw materials, additives and dispersants well, so that the reactants are fully mixed and contacted, the reaction rate is improved, and the mixing time is automatically controlled based on the amount of materials to ensure complete mixing; S4. The material rotation mechanism is set up to make the material change position continuously, receive heat more evenly, reduce temperature gradient, and help obtain more uniform reaction products and better molding quality.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. Through the multi-stage feeding mechanism and feeding control mechanism, the preparation amount of zinc oxide whiskers can be accurately controlled based on production needs, and the amount of additives can be synchronously adjusted based on the amount of raw materials used, so that the more raw materials are used, the more additives are used, so that the ratio of the amount of additives to the amount of raw materials is 6%. Because when zinc oxide whiskers are prepared by solid-state reaction method, the role of additives is mainly to promote the growth of whiskers, control the morphology of whiskers and improve the reaction process. When the reaction raw materials (such as zinc compounds) increase, more additives are needed from the perspective of promoting the reaction and maintaining the effectiveness of additives. When the amount of reaction raw materials increases, in order to enable the reaction to proceed smoothly under the same conditions, the amount of additives needs to be increased to ensure sufficient active sites to promote the reaction.

[0015] 2. Through the dispersant addition confirmation mechanism, it is possible to automatically determine whether the dispersant needs to be added and the amount of dispersant added based on the amount of raw materials used. When the amount of raw materials increases to the set threshold, the dispersant addition process is started, and the more raw materials are used, the more dispersant is used. This is because as the amount of raw materials increases, the collision frequency between particles increases significantly, and the possibility of agglomeration greatly increases. More raw materials will produce more whiskers or particles during the reaction process. These whiskers or particles are more likely to contact and adhere to each other in a limited reaction space, thereby forming agglomerates. In order to inhibit agglomeration, dispersants need to be added, and blind addition of dispersants is avoided, which will introduce additional impurity components. When used in subsequent fields with high purity requirements such as electronic materials, it will affect the electrical properties and stability of the product. Moreover, when the whiskers are chemically analyzed or used in some high-precision experimental research, these additional impurities will interfere with the results.

[0016] 3. Through the setting of the mixing and feeding mechanism, the raw materials, additives and dispersants can be well mixed, so that the reactants are fully mixed and contacted, the reaction rate is improved, and the mixing time can be automatically adjusted based on the amount of materials to ensure complete mixing.

[0017] 4. The support rotation mechanism can make the reaction container move and rotate continuously during the preparation of zinc oxide whiskers. Because in the resistance heating box, heat is mainly transferred to the reaction container by radiation and conduction. If the reaction container is stationary, it will cause uneven temperatures in different parts of the container, thereby affecting the consistency of the reaction and the molding quality of the product. The rotation can make the material in the container constantly change its position, receive heat more evenly, reduce temperature gradients, and help obtain more uniform reaction products and better molding quality.

[0025] The feeding control mechanism 6 is fixedly mounted on the multi-stage feeding mechanism 4. The feeding control mechanism 6 includes a control shell 61.

The plurality of guide slide rods 73 are slidably sleeved with the same sliding seat 74, and a plurality of compensation springs 75 sleeved on the outside of the guide slide rod 73 are fixedly connected between the sliding seat 74 and one of the side plates 71. A sleeve hole sleeved on the outside of the adjusting resistor rod 72 is opened on the side wall of the sliding seat 74, and an adjusting conductive contact piece 76 electrically contacting the adjusting resistor rod 72 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the corresponding sleeve hole. An electric connection strip 77 is fixedly installed on the top of the inner wall of the control shell 61, and a conductive block 78 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the sliding seat 74.

[0027] The PLC controller 8 is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the base 1 and is electrically connected to the high temperature heating mechanism 2, the material supporting rotation mechanism 3, the multi-stage feeding mechanism 4, the mixing and feeding mechanism 5 and the feeding control mechanism 6 respectively.

[0028] The operating principle of the present invention is described as follows: the PLC controller 8 controls the motor rotating assembly 42 to drive the column 41 to rotate, and the column 41 drives the supporting plate 43 to rotate, so that the feeding pipe 47 connected to the raw material discharge tank moves to the upper side of the feeding pipe 57, and the PLC controller 8 controls the electric lifting rod 52 to push the mixing box 56 to move upward, so that the feeding pipe 57 on the mixing box 56 is connected to the feeding pipe 47; The data information of the amount of zinc oxide whiskers that need to be prepared is input into the PLC controller 8. The PLC controller 8 controls the action of the servo motor 63 based on the preparation amount. The servo motor 63 drives the control screw 62 to rotate. The threaded connection between the control screw 62 and the movable plate 64 is controlled so that the movable plate 64 drives the pressure switch 65 to move relatively in the control shell 61. Specifically, the more the preparation amount of zinc oxide whiskers that needs to be prepared is, the longer the time that the PLC controller 8 controls the servo motor 63 to work is, and thus the movable plate 64 drives the pressure switch 65 to move a greater distance, and the interval distance between the pressure switch 65 and the pressing plate 68 is increased. After the pressure switch 65 is moved into position, the PLC controller 8 controls the forward and reverse motors. 67 operates at the first gear power, the forward and reverse motor 67 first drives the forward and reverse screw 66 to rotate forward, and the pressing plate 68 moves toward the pressure switch 65 through the threaded sleeve effect of the forward and reverse screw 66 and the pressing plate 68, and when controlling the forward and reverse motor 67 to operate, the PLC controller 8 synchronously controls the feed pump 48 on the raw material storage tank 44 to work, and the feed pump 48 cooperates with the feed pipe 47 to transport the zinc compound in the raw material storage tank 44 to the mixing box 56 through the feed pipe 57 until the pressing plate 68 presses on the pressure switch 65, at which time the PLC controller 8 controls the feed pump 48 to stop working, and controls the forward and reverse motor 67 to drive the forward and reverse screw 66 to reverse for the same forward rotation time, so that the pressing plate 68 is reset to the initial position; At this time, the PLC controller 8 first controls the electric lifting rod 52 to drive the mixing box 56 to move downward, so that the feeding pipe 47 is separated from the feeding pipe 57, and controls the motor rotating assembly 42 to continue to drive the column 41 to drive the supporting plate 43 to rotate, so that the feeding pipe 47 on the additive storage tank 45 moves to the upper side of the feeding pipe 57. Similarly, the PLC controller 8 controls the electric lifting rod 52 to push the mixing box 56 to move upward again, so that the feeding pipe 47 is connected to the feeding pipe 57. At this time, the PLC controller 8 controls the forward and reverse motor 67 to work at the second gear power. At the same time, the feeding pump 48 on the additive storage tank 45 is controlled to work until the pressure switch 65 is pressed and triggered to complete the addition of the additive. The second gear power of the forward and reverse motor 67 is greater than the first gear power, thereby shortening the interval time for the pressure switch 65 to be pressed and triggered, and reducing the amount of additive added. By controlling the power and speed of the forward and reverse motor 67, the amount of additive added is 6% of the amount of raw material added. When the position of the pressure switch 65 is initially adjusted, when the raw material demand is large, the movable plate 64 will move to a position that contacts the sliding seat 74, and push the sliding seat 74 to move along the guide slide rod 73 to overcome the elastic force of the compensation spring 75. Specifically, the greater the raw material demand, the greater the moving distance of the movable plate 64, thereby making the relative moving distance of the sliding seat 74 greater. First, the sliding seat 74 will make the conductive block 78 connected to its upper end contact with the electrical connection strip 77, and feed back an electrical signal to the PLC controller 8. The PLC controller 8 will control the multi-stage feeding mechanism 4 to continue to operate, so that the feeding pipe 47 on the dispersant storage tank 46 is connected to the feeding pipe 57, so as to realize the addition of the dispersant, and when the sliding seat 74 moves, it will synchronously drive the adjusting guide rod 73 to adjust the feed pipe 57. The electrical contact piece 76 slides on the regulating resistor rod 72, and the greater the sliding distance, the greater the access resistance of the regulating resistor rod 72. Similarly, in the process of adding the dispersant, the PLC controller 8 controls the forward and reverse motor 67 to work at the third gear of power, and at this time, the regulating conductive contact piece 76 and the regulating resistor rod 72 are connected in series to the power supply circuit of the forward and reverse motor 67, so that when the amount of raw material used is greater, the access resistance of the regulating resistor rod 72 is greater, so that the power supply current of the forward and reverse motor 67 is smaller, the speed of the forward and reverse motor 67 is slower, and the interval time of the pressing plate 68 pressing on the pressure switch 65 is longer, so that more dispersant is added, so as to realize automatic selection of whether the dispersant needs to be added, and can accurately control the amount of dispersant added; When all the materials are added into the mixing box 56, the PLC controller 8 controls the electric control on-off valve 58 on the feeding pipe 57 to close, and the PLC controller 8 controls the flip motor 54 to drive the mixing box 56 to flip 180 degrees every 10 seconds, so that the materials are located on the upper side of the dispersion screen 510, and the PLC controller 8 controls the driving motor 514 to operate, and the driving motor 514 drives the rotating shaft 513 to drive the cam 515 to rotate continuously. When the protruding part of the cam 515 pushes on the reciprocating plate 511, the reciprocating plate 511 cooperates with the reciprocating rod 510 to rotate. 9 overcomes the elastic force of the return spring 512 and moves forward, and when the protruding portion of the cam 515 leaves the reciprocating plate 511, the dispersion screen plate 510 moves back under the action of the return spring 512, thereby realizing the continuous reciprocating movement of the dispersion screen plate 510, dispersing and mixing the materials on the dispersion screen plate 510, and realizing complete dispersion and mixing of the materials after reciprocating for many times, and the PLC controller 8 controls the working time of the mixing and feeding mechanism 5 based on the preset amount of raw material addition. The more the raw material addition amount, the longer the working time of the mixing and feeding mechanism 5 is controlled; After the material mixing is completed, the PLC controller 8 controls the electric slide rail 51 to drive the mixing box 56 to move between the lower support shell 21 and the resistance heating box 24, and controls the flip motor 54 to drive the mixing box 56 to rotate to make the feed pipe 57 located at the bottom, so that the feed pipe 57 is aligned with the reaction container 34, and the PLC controller 8 then opens the electric control on-off valve 58 on the feed pipe 57, so that the mixed material falls into the reaction container 34, and in this process, the PLC controller 8 also controls the drive motor 514 to vibrate the dispersion mesh plate 510, and quickly shakes off the material on the dispersion mesh plate 510 to ensure complete feeding, and a layer of polytetrafluoroethylene coating is provided on the inner wall of the mixing box 56, the inner wall of the feed pipe 57 and the inner wall of the electric control on-off valve 58, and the polytetrafluoroethylene coating has excellent non-stickiness, so that the material can fall completely into the reaction container 34, and after repeated material mixing, all reaction containers 34 are added with reaction raw materials; The PLC controller 8 then controls the electric push rod 23 to push the resistance heating box 24 toward the lower support shell 21, and through the plug-in action of the positioning rod 25 and the positioning socket 26, the resistance heating box 24 is stably and accurately connected to the lower support shell 21, and the resistance heating box 24 provides heating to achieve the preparation of zinc oxide whiskers. In the preparation process, the PLC controller 8 rotates the motor 32, and the rotating motor 32 drives the insulation circular plate 31 to rotate in the lower support shell 21, thereby driving multiple reaction containers 34 to revolve. In the process of movement, the transmission gear 35 is displaced relative to the annular inner rack 36, and the transmission shaft 33 is driven by the meshing action of the transmission gear 35 and the annular inner rack 36 to drive the reaction container 34 to rotate, so that the material in the reaction container 34 constantly changes position, receives heat more evenly, reduces temperature gradients, and helps to obtain more uniform reaction products and better molding quality.
