Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of titanium dioxide preparation technology, specifically relating to a production line for titanium dioxide coating process. Background Technology
[0002] Our company uses the sulfuric acid process to produce titanium dioxide. In the post-processing section, also known as the coating section, titanium dioxide particles undergo inorganic treatment to improve their weather resistance, durability, and chemical stability. This compensates for the photochemical activity of titanium dioxide particles and enhances their wetting, dispersion, and rheological properties in various media, allowing titanium dioxide to be better and more uniformly dispersed in different media. Currently, most commercially available rutile titanium dioxide is coated with aluminum or silicon, with aluminum coating being the most common. In addition to forming a protective layer on the surface of titanium dioxide to prevent contact between titanium dioxide and organic media, aluminum coating can also reflect some ultraviolet light, preventing excessive absorption of ultraviolet light and photochemical reactions.
[0003] However, the overall cost of using high-grade aluminum hydroxide for titanium dioxide coating is currently high. The company is considering using low-grade aluminum sulfate (containing impurities including iron, magnesium, silicon, calcium, sodium, potassium, etc.) and low-grade sodium hydroxide (iron ions, silicon oxide, calcium oxide) to prepare sodium aluminate. After removing impurities, the company can then use it for titanium dioxide coating to reduce the production cost of directly purchasing high-grade sodium hydroxide and sodium sulfate. However, the company does not have a production line for coating using low-grade sodium hydroxide. Therefore, the company needs to design a low-grade aluminum hydroxide coating production line that can reduce costs compared to the existing coating process. Utility Model Content
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a production line for titanium dioxide coating process. It employs a sodium aluminate preparation line to prepare low-grade aluminum sulfate. The low-grade aluminum sulfate undergoes preliminary impurity removal to remove solid, suspended, and colloidal impurities. Then, the low-grade aluminum sulfate reacts with low-grade sodium hydroxide to produce sodium aluminate. By adjusting the pH and controlling a series of reaction conditions, iron impurities in the sodium aluminate are precipitated and removed through a first impurity removal tank. Finally, the solution is fed into the titanium dioxide coating production line for coating. By utilizing low-grade aluminum hydroxide and low-grade aluminum sulfate to prepare low-grade sodium aluminate, this method can further reduce production costs while ensuring the quality of titanium dioxide coating.
