The invention discloses a preparation method of a water-based aluminum
pigment for external wall heat insulation. The method comprise the steps of feeding raw materials including spherical aluminum
powder, a
grinding medium, an environment-friendly
solvent oil,
oleic acid or
erucic acid, a passivant, and a
titanate coupler into a
ball mill; sealing the
ball mill, performing ball milling and discharging the raw materials with the environment-friendly
solvent oil; conveying the materials into a vibration screen through a pipeline to be screened, removing screen
tailings, and putting the materials into a frame
filter press to conduct filter pressing, so as to obtain filter cakes with a
solid content of 80 percent; and putting the filter cakes, an
alcohol or
ether solvent with good water
miscibility and low molecular weight
polyvinyl alcohol together into a reaction kettle, keeping the temperature, discharging the materials, putting the materials into the frame
filter press to conduct filter pressing, and performing
solid liquid separation so as to obtain a finished product. According to the method, the environment-friendly solvent is adopted to meet national environmental requirements. The aluminum
pigment prepared through the method has good
water resistance,
acid resistance and alkali resistance of the aluminum
pigment are achieved, the environmental innocuousness and the service life of the aluminum pigment as a wall insulating
coating are improved, and the aluminum pigment is easy to disperse in a paint.
