Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of carbon black production technology, and in particular to a pretreatment system for the production of carbon black dispersion. Background Technology

[0016] The pretreatment system for carbon black dispersion production includes a first reactor, the inlet of which is connected to a first adsorbent liquid conveying pipeline, the outlet of which is connected to a first grinding device, the inlet of which is connected to a first dispersant storage tank, the outlet of which is connected to a second reactor, the inlet of which is connected to a second adsorbent liquid conveying pipeline, the outlet of which is connected to a second grinding device, the inlet of which is connected to a second dispersant storage tank, the outlet of which is connected to a separation device, the outlet of which is connected to a drying device, and the outlet of which is connected to a modified carbon black product storage tank. Carbon black material with a particle size of 15-20μm is fed into the first reactor. Under the action of a pump, the first adsorbent liquid in the first adsorbent liquid delivery pipeline is transported into the first reactor. After heating, stirring and dispersing, a carbon black liquid loaded with the first adsorbent adsorption layer is obtained. Then, under the action of a pump, the carbon black liquid enters the first grinding device. At the same time, the dispersant in the first dispersant storage tank enters the first grinding device. After being heated, stirred, dispersed and ground, the liquid enters the second reactor. At the same time, under the action of a pump, the second adsorbent liquid in the second adsorbent liquid delivery pipeline enters the second reactor. After being heated, stirred and dispersed, a carbon black liquid loaded with the second adsorbent adsorption layer is obtained. Then, the liquid is transported into the second grinding device by a pump. At the same time, the second dispersant in the second dispersant storage tank enters the second grinding device. After being heated, stirred, dispersed and ground, the resulting carbon black liquid enters the separation device. The collected solid material is dried by a drying device and finally stored in a modified carbon black product storage tank. The pretreatment system described above is reasonably designed and achieves the modification and pretreatment of carbon black. The modified carbon black material obtained is then used to prepare carbon black dispersion, which greatly improves the dispersibility of the carbon black dispersion.

[0017] Both the first and second reaction vessels include a vessel body. The top of the vessel body has a feed inlet and a liquid inlet, and the bottom has a discharge outlet. The vessel body is surrounded by a jacket, and inside the vessel body is a stirring shaft. One end of the stirring shaft is connected to a motor, and the stirring shaft is equipped with a first stirring component, a second stirring component, and a third stirring component. Multiple ultrasonic generators are installed on both sides of the inner wall of the vessel body, and each ultrasonic generator is electrically connected to a controller. Carbon black material and adsorbent liquid enter the vessel body. After the motor starts, it drives the stirring shaft and the first, second, and third stirring components to thoroughly stir and mix the carbon black material and adsorbent liquid. The heat transfer medium in the jacket provides the temperature required for the reaction. Simultaneously, the controller activates multiple ultrasonic generators, achieving thorough dispersion of the material and facilitating adsorption and modification of the carbon black material by the adsorbent.

[0018] Because the first and third stirring components include a conical seat with multiple L-shaped stirring plates with a hollow structure, the conical seat and the multiple L-shaped stirring plates move circumferentially inside the main body as the stirring shaft rotates, stirring and mixing the carbon black material and dispersant distributed around it, greatly improving the mixing efficiency.

[0019] The second mixing component includes a trapezoidal mixing frame with multiple S-shaped stirring rods. The trapezoidal mixing frame and the multiple S-shaped stirring rods move circumferentially within the main body as the mixing shaft rotates, thoroughly mixing the surrounding carbon black material and dispersant, thus greatly improving mixing efficiency.

[0020] Both the first and second grinding devices include a main body. The top of the main body has a feed inlet and a dispersant inlet, and the bottom has a discharge outlet. The main body is surrounded by a jacket. Inside the main body, from top to bottom, are interconnected grinding chambers and a storage chamber. Inside the grinding chamber is a rotating shaft, one end of which is connected to a motor. A material dispersion component is mounted on the shaft, below which is a mixing component, and below that is a grinding component. When the motor starts, it drives the rotating shaft to rotate. The carbon black material with the adsorbent layer and the dispersant enter the main body through the feed inlet and dispersant inlet, respectively. Under gravity, they are first initially dispersed by the material dispersion component, then mixed by the mixing component, and finally ground by the grinding component. Simultaneously, the heat medium in the jacket provides the necessary temperature for grinding. This grinding device structure ensures thorough contact and mixing of the carbon black material and dispersant, improving the dispersibility of the modified carbon black product.

[0021] The material dispersion component includes a V-shaped plate with a perforated structure located at the upper end of the stirring shaft, and the upper surface of the V-shaped plate is equipped with multiple material dispersion rods of varying heights. The mixing component includes multiple zigzag mixing plates, each equipped with multiple mixing rods. After the motor starts, it drives the rotating shaft, V-shaped plate, and multiple material dispersion rods to rotate, thus initially dispersing the scattered carbon black material and dispersant, preventing the formation of agglomerates of carbon black and dispersant.

[0022] The mixing component includes zigzag mixing plates mounted on a rotating shaft, with multiple mixing rods on the mixing plates. These zigzag mixing plates and rods move circumferentially with the rotation of the shaft, stirring and mixing the surrounding carbon black material and dispersant, ensuring thorough contact and mixing, and significantly improving mixing efficiency.

[0023] The grinding components include a grinding body with multiple grinding blocks. The end of each grinding block furthest from the grinding body is fitted with a clearance fit against the inner wall of the grinding chamber. Under the action of the rotating shaft, the grinding body and the multiple grinding blocks grind the carbon black material and dispersant distributed around them, increasing the specific surface area of ​​the carbon black material and dispersant, promoting full contact between the carbon black material and the dispersant, and thus obtaining a highly dispersible carbon black product.

[0024] Because the separation device is a centrifugal filter, the modified carbon black material and solvent can be effectively separated, facilitating subsequent drying.

[0025] Because the drying device is a fluidized bed dryer, the modified carbon black product is heated evenly, which greatly improves the drying efficiency and ensures the stability of the carbon black product. Attached Figure Description

Simultaneously, under the action of a pump, the second adsorbent solution in the second adsorbent solution delivery pipe... The liquid (ethylenediamine solution or amino acids with carboxyl or amino groups) enters the second reactor. After heating and stirring to disperse, a carbon black solution loaded with a second adsorbent layer is obtained. The solution is then pumped to the second grinding device. At the same time, the second dispersant in the second dispersant storage tank enters the second grinding device. After heating, stirring, dispersing, and grinding, the resulting carbon black solution enters the separation device (which can effectively separate the modified carbon black material and the solvent). The collected solid material is transported to the drying device by an auger or conveyor belt for drying. Finally, it is transported to the modified carbon black product storage tank by a conveyor belt or screw conveyor for storage.
