AI Technical Summary
In existing technologies, vacuum degassing is effective for bubbles on the surface of materials, but not so effective for bubbles inside the material and near the inner wall of the container. This results in uneven capsule surfaces and non-uniform structures, affecting product quality and increasing the defect rate.
A defoaming sol tank for capsule preparation was designed, comprising a rotating shaft, connecting block, support frame and stirring blade. The stirring generates flow to push bubbles from the depth to the surface, and the arc-shaped stirring blade contacts the inner wall to guide the flow. Combined with vacuuming, the bubbles escape faster.
It effectively improved defoaming efficiency, shortened defoaming time, ensured the smoothness of capsule surface and uniformity of structure, improved product quality and reduced defect rate.
