The invention discloses a method for preparing micron-sized
magnesium hydroxide by utilizing low-grade
bischofite and application of the micron-sized
magnesium hydroxide. In the process of preparing a refined
magnesium chloride solution by dissolving high-grade
bischofite, low-grade
bischofite (salty mud) generated by filter pressing is used as a
raw material, water is added to dissolve the settled filtrate, an anionic surfactant and a chelating agent are added, the mixture and diluted
ammonia water are synchronously dropwise added for co-
precipitation crystallization, and the micron-sized magnesium
hydroxide is obtained through suction
filtration, washing and
drying. Wherein the co-
precipitation method is combined with SDBS and EDTA-2Na dual additives and
alkali metal ions K < + > and Na < + > for cooperative regulation and control,
nucleation and
crystal growth are synchronously controlled, seed crystals do not need to be added, and the problems that in a traditional process, the product
particle size distribution is wide, and the
crystal shape is irregular are solved.
Magnesium hydroxide has uniform
particle size distribution (D50 = 1.60-1.80 [mu] m, D97lt, 5 [mu] m), the purity is greater than or equal to 99.3%, and the whiteness is gt; 97%. Meanwhile,
solid waste magnesium resources are used as raw materials,
solid waste
resource utilization is achieved, and the method can be used in the high-end fields of
medicine, food,
flame-retardant materials and the like.
