Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of Kathon production technology, and in particular to a mixing system for Kathon production. Background Technology

[0002] Kathon is a preservative widely used in cosmetics, detergents, coatings, water-based adhesives, inks, dyes, color pastes, printing pastes, leather, industrial circulating water treatment, textiles, and other industries for preservation and sterilization. Its main components are isothiazolinone and its inorganic salt stabilizers, typically in a CMI:MIT ratio of 3:1. Kathon production involves first synthesizing MIT, then synthesizing CMI from MIT, and finally compounding them to obtain the Kathon product. Currently, MIT and CMI are directly added to a mixing device along with a solvent, and then stirred to prepare the Kathon product. However, this mixing method results in the presence of insoluble particulate matter and impurities such as metal ions in the Kathon product, which affect its purity and stability, ultimately impacting its performance. Therefore, to address these issues, it is necessary to develop a mixing system for Kathon production. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a mixing system for Kathon production, which greatly improves the purity of Kathon products and ensures their effectiveness in use, in order to address the shortcomings of the existing technology.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A mixing system for Kathon production includes a first dissolving vessel and a second dissolving vessel. The outlet of the first dissolving vessel is connected to a first impurity removal device, and the outlet of the second dissolving vessel is connected to a second impurity removal device. The outlet of the first impurity removal device is connected to a first buffer vessel, and the outlet of the second impurity removal device is connected to a second buffer vessel. The outlets of the first buffer vessel and the second buffer vessel are respectively connected to a mixing vessel, and the outlet of the mixing vessel is connected to a product storage tank.

An activated carbon adsorption layer is provided inside the body, a silica gel adsorption layer is provided below the activated carbon adsorption layer, and an ion exchange resin adsorption layer is provided below the silica gel adsorption layer.

[0009] As an improved technical solution, the mixing vessel includes a vessel body, with a first feed pipe and a second feed pipe respectively provided on the top and upper side of the vessel body, and a discharge port provided at the bottom of the vessel body. A first feeder is connected to the first feed pipe at the top of the interior of the vessel body, and a second feeder is provided below the first feeder and connected to the second feed pipe.

[0011] After adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] The Kathon production mixing system includes a first dissolving tank and a second dissolving tank. The outlet of the first dissolving tank is connected to a first impurity removal device, and the outlet of the second dissolving tank is connected to a second impurity removal device. The outlet of the first impurity removal device is connected to a first buffer tank, and the outlet of the second impurity removal device is connected to the second buffer tank. The outlets of the first and second buffer tanks are respectively connected to a mixing tank, and the outlet of the mixing tank is connected to a product storage tank. In actual production, MIT and solvent are added to the first dissolving tank for dissolution, and CMI and solvent are added to the second dissolving tank for dissolution. After dissolution in the first dissolving tank, the MIT solution enters the first impurity removal device under the action of a transfer pump. The solution after dissolution in the second dissolving tank enters the second impurity removal device under the action of a transfer pump. The MIT solution after impurity removal by the first impurity removal device enters the first buffer tank for storage, and the CMI solution after impurity removal by the second impurity removal device enters the second buffer tank for storage. Then, the MIT solution and CMI solution enter the mixing tank according to a set flow rate, are uniformly mixed, and then stored in the product storage tank. The above-described mixing system is rationally designed, which improves the purity and stability of Kathon products, thereby ensuring the product's performance.

[0013] Both the first and second dissolving vessels include a vessel body. The top of the vessel body has a feed inlet and a solvent inlet, while the bottom has a discharge outlet. Inside the vessel body is a rotating shaft, one end of which is connected to a motor. A fixed base is mounted on the rotating shaft, and I-shaped stirring frames are located on both sides of the fixed base. Multiple stirring rods are mounted on the stirring frames, and multiple spiral blades are mounted on the rotating shaft below the fixed base. A perforated stirring plate is positioned between adjacent spiral blades. MIT and solvent enter the first dissolving vessel, while CMI and solvent enter the second dissolving vessel. The motors in both vessels are started, driving the rotating shaft, fixed base, stirring frames, stirring rods, spiral blades, and stirring plate to rotate. This achieves thorough mixing of the materials and solvent, ensuring that MIT and CMI dissolve separately in the solvent, significantly improving dissolution efficiency.

[0014] The first impurity removal device comprises a main body with an inlet at the top and an outlet at the bottom. Inside the main body is a diatomaceous earth adsorption layer, below which is a chitosan adsorption layer, and below that, a molecular sieve adsorption layer. After the MIT (Mixed Ultrafine Protein) solution enters the main body, it undergoes synergistic adsorption by the diatomaceous earth, chitosan, and molecular sieve layers, effectively removing insoluble substances, metal ions, and organic impurities, significantly improving the purity of the MIT solution.

[0015] The second impurity removal device includes a main body with an inlet at the top and an outlet at the bottom. Inside the main body is an activated carbon adsorption layer, below which is a silica gel adsorption layer, and below that, an ion exchange resin adsorption layer. After the CMI solution enters the main body, it undergoes synergistic adsorption by the activated carbon, silica gel, and ion exchange resin layers, effectively removing insoluble substances, metal ions, and organic impurities, significantly improving the purity of the CMI solution.

[0016] The mixing vessel includes a vessel body, with a first feed pipe and a second feed pipe respectively located on the top and upper side of the vessel body. The bottom of the vessel body has a discharge port. Inside the vessel body, above the first feed pipe, there is a first feeder connected to the first feed pipe. Below the first feeder, there is a second feeder connected to the second feed pipe. Below the second feeder, there is a rotating shaft. One end of the rotating shaft is connected to a motor. The rotating shaft has a first mixing ring and a second mixing ring. The first and second mixing rings each have multiple S-shaped mixing plates. The first and second mixing rings are connected by a hollowed-out arc-shaped plate with multiple mixing teeth. Under the action of the delivery pump, MIT liquid enters the interior of the first distributor through the first feed pipe, and CMI liquid enters the interior of the second distributor through the second feed pipe. After being evenly dispersed, they flow downwards under gravity. At the same time, the motor shaft, the first mixing ring, the second mixing ring, the S-shaped mixing plate, the arc-shaped connecting plate, and multiple mixing teeth rotate, achieving thorough stirring and mixing of the MIT and CMI liquids. The mixed liquid is then discharged from the outlet. The above-described mixing vessel design is reasonable and greatly improves efficiency.

[0017] Both the first and second distributors include hollow discs with multiple fabric blocks connected to them on the periphery. Each disc and fabric block has multiple fabric holes. MIT (Mixed Tolerant Mixed) and CMI (Chemical Oxygenated Mixed) liquids enter the discs of the first and second distributors respectively under the action of a pump. Then, a portion of the MIT and CMI liquids enters the fabric blocks, passing through the holes in the discs and fabric blocks, and are evenly dispersed. The first and second distributors described above are rationally designed, achieving uniform dispersion of the MIT and CMI liquids and facilitating thorough mixing of the two liquids, thereby ensuring the uniformity of the Kathon product.

[0022] In actual production, MIT and solvent are added to the first dissolving vessel for dissolution, while CMI and solvent are added to the second dissolving vessel for dissolution.
