Description

A nanoscale highly dispersed silica shaped structure material and its preparation method Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of silica materials technology, and in particular to a nanoscale highly dispersed silica shaped structure material and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] A novel nanoscale, highly dispersed, shaped silica, also known as hydrated silica, boasts performance comparable to fumed silica. However, significant differences exist in cost and yield: the former is inexpensive and produces abundant output, while the latter is costly and has limited production. Currently, there are two main industrial-scale silica production processes both domestically and internationally: one is the fumed silica process using silicon tetrachloride or silicon trichloride as raw materials, and the other is the precipitation process using water glass as raw material.

[0003] Current Status and Development Trends of Fumed Silica

[0004] Fumed silica is known for its high product dispersibility, but its complex process, high cost, huge investment, and high energy consumption limit its output and application expansion. Overseas, the annual output of a single fumed silica plant typically exceeds 5,000 tons, and the product range is diverse with various grades.

[0005] In the domestic market, the fumed silica production process is almost entirely monopolized by foreign giants such as Cabot and Wacker. While a few small-scale facilities exist domestically, such as Guangzhou Gibbs Technology Industry Co., Ltd., which built a production line utilizing organosilicon byproducts to produce fumed silica, increasing annual output from 500 tons to 2,000 tons, it is worth noting that East China University of Science and Technology and Shanghai Chlor-Alkali Co., Ltd. have successfully developed and promoted "nano-grade silica fumed silica combustion preparation technology and equipment," breaking the monopoly of a few developed countries in this field.

[0006] The development trend of fumed silica is to simplify the production process and reduce production costs while maintaining high dispersibility.

[0007] Current Status and Development Trends of Precipitated Silica

[0008] With societal progress and increasingly stringent environmental protection requirements, the rubber tire industry has a growing need for low rolling resistance and low emissions. Therefore, the replacement of carbon black with highly dispersed, high-performance silica has become an inevitable trend.

[0009] Whether using the fumed silica or precipitated silica method, the development of high-performance silica is trending towards higher dispersion ratios and nano-sized particles. Internationally, major producers of precipitated silica include France, Germany, the United States, and Japan, with Europe's total production reaching approximately 1 million tons annually. German companies lead in annual production, exceeding 500,000 tons; Rhodia of France follows closely with over 350,000 tons annually; the United States and the Americas together produce over 700,000 tons; and Asia, including Japan, South Korea, and China, also produces over 750,000 tons annually. In addition, Spain, the United Kingdom, Belgium, and Italy also have some production, but this is mostly through subsidiaries of German and American companies.

[0010] The three largest companies in Germany, France, and the United States account for more than half of the global production of precipitated silica. These companies are not only major producers of fumed silica, but their precipitated silica products also feature small average particle size and narrow particle size distribution. Currently, high-quality precipitated silica in the domestic market is mainly supplied by these companies.

[0011] However, while imported precipitated high-dispersibility silica products undergo secondary surface treatment to improve dispersibility, the process is complex and costly, and still cannot achieve complete dispersion. This increases user costs and requires additional chemical reagents and dispersants to achieve the desired results.

[0012] Currently, although fumed silica is highly favored for its high quality, its large-scale production faces challenges due to complex processes, large equipment investments, limited raw material sources, and high costs. In contrast, while conventional precipitated silica has a large output, its product performance is difficult to achieve high dispersion levels, mainly producing micron-sized products with particle sizes between 35-45 micrometers, which cannot meet the market demand for ultrafine products.

[0013] There are numerous domestic manufacturers of precipitated silica, but their products are limited in variety, low in quality, have low activity, are difficult to control in particle size, and exhibit poor affinity. Furthermore, the surface of the particles suffers from hydrophilic agglomeration and bonding, affecting the product's binding strength. Based on dispersibility, precipitated silica can be classified into low-dispersibility (LDS), easily dispersible (EDS), and high-dispersibility (HDS) products. Currently, over 90% of silica products on the market are LDS grade. Only wholly foreign-owned enterprises and Sino-foreign joint ventures can produce EDS grade products, while there are no reports on the production of HDS grade products. Summary of the Invention

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0045] Unless otherwise specified, all raw materials, reagents, instruments and equipment used in this invention can be purchased from the market or prepared by existing methods.

[0046] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a nanoscale highly dispersed silica shaped structure material, wherein the nanoscale highly dispersed silica shaped structure material contains more than 98% SiO2 by weight and 2% to 5% free water by weight; the specific surface area of ​​the nanoscale highly dispersed silica shaped structure material is 120 m². 2 / g~390 m 2 / g, and the original particle size in the primary shaped structure is <10 nanometers.

[0047] This invention discloses a novel nanoscale highly dispersed shaped silica, containing more than 98% SiO2 by weight and 2%~5% free water by weight, with a specific surface area of ​​120 m². 2 / g~390 m 2 / g, the primary particle size in the one-time shaped structure is <10 nanometers. This invention also discloses a novel method for preparing nanoscale highly dispersed shaped silica, which directly prepares shaped nanoscale highly dispersed silica through dissolution-synthesis-filtration-spraying, fundamentally solving the long-standing global problem in the silica industry—poor dispersion of silica and the inability to synthesize to standard in one step. At the same time, the process of this invention not only reduces the production cost of silica, but also creates a substitute for gas-phase silica by eliminating the need for ultrafine grinding and other methods.

[0048] Secondly, the present invention provides a method for preparing the nanoscale highly dispersed silica shaped structure material according to any one of the first aspects, the preparation method comprising the following steps:

[0049] Sodium silicate was dissolved in a solvent, then concentrated sulfuric acid and a dispersant were added and stirred to react, yielding the first reactant.

[0050] Add a pH adjuster and a dispersant to the first reactant until the pH of the system is 4-10, and then allow it to mature to obtain the second reactant.

[0051] The second reactant is subjected to pressure filtration, washing, slurrying and drying to obtain the nano-scale highly dispersed silica shaped structure material.

[0052] The chemical reaction process of this invention mainly includes: Na2O3·36SiO2 + H2SO4 → 3·36SiO2 + Na2SO4 + H2O. The method of this invention involves controlling the addition of synthetic acids and bases to the reaction. The precipitation reaction of silica is an acid-base neutralization and metathesis reaction, and obtaining high-performance, highly dispersed nano-sized shaped silica is not easy. This is because the synthesis mechanism is complex, and many complex physicochemical parameters affect the reaction. A key aspect is preventing the silica solid solution from agglomerating into microporous silica gel, thus destroying the shaped structure. The presence of microporous gel is one of the reasons for the high specific surface area of ​​silica, mainly containing "acidic specific surface area," and forming a tight network structure that easily traps excessive sodium ions. Drying causes the product particle size to harden, whiteness to decrease, and the specific surface area to increase, directly leading to poor dispersion of silica and affecting the use of subsequent products.

[0053] The electrolyte used is added to the precipitation reaction solution as a silica sol stabilizer; in the concentrated sulfuric acid process, Na₂SO₄ solution can be used as a stabilizer. Silica sol has good stability under suitable conditions, mainly due to the charged nature of the material.

[0054] pH control: SiO2 particles begin to carry a negative charge above pH 3.5. In silica sol, the SiO2 particles become charged because surface SiO2 molecules interact with water molecules to form M2SiO3, which then ionizes, resulting in a weakly alkaline sol. Due to the strong ionization of M2SiO3, the material carries a high charge, but M... + The diffusion ability of ions is stronger than that of hydrogen ions, so silica sol is more stable.

[0055] The effect of stirring: SiO2 gel is an irreversible microporous gel, therefore it can only be re-dissolved by solvent and stirring when its coagulation bonds are not strong. This is the basis for providing sufficient stirring intensity in the production of silica. However, there is a limit to the stirring speed. Therefore, the stirring speed is selected in the range of 43~200 rpm during the production process.

[0056] The method of this invention is a technology for the industrial production of nanoscale highly dispersed shaped silica, which solves the long-standing global problem of poor product shaped structure and microporous gel dispersion that has plagued the silica industry for a long time, namely the one-time synthesis of shaped silica using large-capacity concentrated sulfuric acid.

[0057] Compared with existing technologies, this invention employs a large-capacity precipitation method to produce nanoscale highly dispersed and shaped silica in a single process, meaning a single production line can achieve an annual output of 20,000 tons. No subsequent ultrafine or grinding processes are required. Simultaneously, the synthesis time for each step is reduced from 4.6 hours to 2.6 hours, and the use of catalysts, currently a hot research topic in the industry, is abandoned. The dispersant Na2SO4 is developed; nanoscale highly dispersed and shaped silica with a primary SiO2 particle size <10nm is produced, exhibiting high dispersibility and bidirectional adjustment between amorphous and shaped forms, with free water content controlled between 2% and 5%.

[0058] The method of this invention is energy-saving and consumption-reducing. In the chemical reaction, concentrated sulfuric acid (98% or higher, without dilution) is directly added to the synthesis reaction, utilizing its exothermic reaction to complete the synthesis. In the filter press pulping process, a filter press and pulping machine are used, reducing water consumption by 50% and electricity consumption by 85% per ton of product. In the spray drying process, large and small nozzles are used to refine the pulp, controlling the set and free water content during drying to between 2% and 5%, reducing subsequent processing costs. It also improves quality assurance.

[0059] In some specific embodiments, the dispersant includes Na2SO4; the solvent includes water; the concentrated sulfuric acid has a mass percentage concentration of 93-99%; and the sodium silicate contains 8.2%-12% Na2O and 26%-35% SiO2 by weight.

[0060] In some specific embodiments, when preparing the first reactant, the amounts of sodium silicate, concentrated sulfuric acid, and Na2SO4 are in the following relationship: (100~130 kg / m3): (0.2~0.5 kg / m3): (0.02~0.06 g / L).

[0061] In some specific embodiments, when adjusting the pH value of the first reactant, the amount of Na2SO4 added is 0.02 g / L to 0.06 g / L.

[0062] In some specific embodiments, the operating conditions of the stirring reaction include: a temperature of 60~89℃, a time of 0.75 hours~1.2 hours, and a rotation speed of 43~220 rpm.

[0063] In some specific embodiments, the curing working conditions include: a temperature of 45~65℃ and a time of 45 minutes~60 minutes.

[0069] In some specific embodiments, the drying is carried out by spray drying, and the operating conditions parameters of the spray drying include: using a spray dryer with large and small nozzles, and the temperature of the spray entering the tower is 580~980℃.

[0070] In some specific embodiments, the drying is carried out by spray drying, during which an activator is added to the slurry. The activator includes at least one of diethylene glycol, n-butanol, propylene glycol, triethanolamine, cyclohexylamine, and diphenylguanidine. The amount of the activator added is 0.2 g / L to 22 g / L.
