Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of mixing and stirring, and more specifically to a stirring paddle used for large-scale production of graphene hydrogel. Background Art

[0002] Graphene aerogel is a three-dimensional porous structure constructed with graphene materials as raw materials. It has the characteristics of ultra-lightness, high strength, high elasticity, high thermal stability and excellent electrical properties. It has broad application prospects in many fields, such as aerospace, national defense, energy, environmental protection, etc. One of the most commonly used preparation methods for large-scale production of graphene aerogel is to first prepare graphene hydrogel by chemical reduction. In the preparation process of graphene hydrogel, since the graphene oxide filter cake raw material is placed in the aqueous solution of the reactor, it is easy to agglomerate and clump, and it is difficult to completely disperse to form a sol. At the same time, the dispersion time is long, and the filter cake block is difficult to break up. In the prior art, although the traditional anchor-type stirring paddle can be used to stir mixtures with higher viscosity, the stirring method is too simple, lacks shear force, and the stirring efficiency of materials such as agglomerated filter cakes is low; and although the dispersion ability of the traditional blade stirring paddle has been improved, the dead zone is too large, and it is difficult to meet the preparation requirements of graphene hydrogel.
