Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of resin modification and pretreatment production technology of fiber prepreg formulation, and in particular relates to a circulating cooling device for a colloid mill. Background Technology
[0002] Fiber prepreg is a composite material made from fibers (carbon fiber, glass fiber, etc.), formulated resins, release paper, and other materials through processes such as yarn spreading, hot pressing, cooling, coating, and winding. It's called prepreg because this is only the initial impregnation of resin and carbon fibers; the final impregnation occurs during product molding. Fiber prepregs are widely used in fishing tackle, sports equipment, sporting goods, aerospace, wind power, and rail transportation.
[0003] Formulated resins are crucial raw materials for fiber prepreg production. To ensure uniform mixing of the formulated resins, a colloid mill is used to thoroughly grind and mix the difficult-to-disperse components with the resin matrix beforehand. A colloid mill is a device used to grind solid particles or droplets into very fine particles in a liquid medium. It mainly consists of a high-speed rotating rotor and a stationary stator with a very small gap between them. When the material passes through this narrow gap, it is subjected to strong shearing forces, friction, and high-frequency vibrations, causing the particles in the material to be crushed, dispersed, or emulsified into even smaller particles. Combined with temperature control, the premixed components can be fully dispersed without damaging the resin matrix components. However, since resin matrices are usually quite viscous, they need to be stirred before processing with a colloid mill. In order to reduce stirring resistance, the resin temperature needs to be increased to increase fluidity. The resin temperature will rise again after processing with a colloid mill. Since the colloid mill needs to continuously circulate the resin during processing, the resin temperature will rise further during the circulation process. Excessive temperature may cause slight cross-linking of some resin structures and reduce reactivity. This is reflected in the appearance as a slight increase in viscosity or a darkening of color. Therefore, a cooling device is needed to cool the resin.
[0004] Therefore, we need to design a circulating cooling device for colloid mills to solve these problems. Utility Model Content
