Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of carbomer manufacturing technology, and specifically relates to a carbomer drying device. Background Technology

[0002] Carbomer, also known as carbopol, is an acrylic crosslinking resin obtained by crosslinking pentaerythritol and other substances with acrylic acid. It is a very important rheology modifier. Neutralized carbomer is an excellent gel matrix with important applications such as thickening and suspending. It has a simple processing method, good stability, and is widely used in emulsions, creams, and gels. Carbomer is a flagship product of Novogene Corporation (formerly Goodyear, one of the oldest companies in the United States), whose products include the Carbopol series of rheology modifiers and the Pemulen series of polymer emulsifiers. As a high-molecular-weight hydrophilic polymer... The drying process requires slow dehydration within a specific temperature range (usually 45-60℃). Traditional heating barrels use a single heat source (such as an electric heating tube or a steam jacket) for direct contact heating, which causes the surface material to be overheated and clump together, while the inner material retains moisture due to low heat conduction efficiency, resulting in an imbalance in the heat transfer gradient. Most existing drying barrels use static heating chambers and lack dynamic heat circulation mechanisms. For example, the hot air circulation system is not equipped with a gradient flow guiding device, resulting in uneven airflow distribution and the coexistence of local overheated areas and low-temperature dead zones. The layout of the heating elements on the barrel wall does not take into account the changes in the thickness of the material accumulation, resulting in a significant thermal resistance layer effect. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, the purpose of this invention is to provide a drying device that improves the drying efficiency of carbomer.

[0004] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

The heating rod is embedded within the stirring rod. The electrode assembly is installed at the top of the stirring rod. The heating rod and the electrode assembly are electrically connected. The electrode assembly is connected to an external power source via wires. The electrode assembly consists of a conductive ring and a brush. The conductive ring and the brush are in elastic contact, forming a rotating electrical connection structure. The conductive ring consists of separate annular electrode plates symmetrically distributed around the circumference of the stirring rod, corresponding to the positive and negative terminals of the heating rod. The wires connecting the heating rod and the electrode assembly are axially arranged, passing through the cavity inside the stirring rod and being welded or plugged into the electrode assembly. The electrode assembly has a multi-layered insulating protective structure on its outer side. The multi-layered insulating protective structure is made of ceramic or engineering plastic.
