Calcium carbonate is an important inorganic chemical product and functional powder material.
Because of its excellent and unique physical and chemical properties, wide sources and low prices, it has been widely used in roads, building materials, metallurgy, rubber, plastics, papermaking, Paint and other industries
.
? At present, the calcium carbonate products on the market mainly include heavy calcium carbonate, light calcium carbonate, activated calcium carbonate and nano calcium carbonate
.
? 1.
Types of calcium carbonate? Light calcium carbonate (precipitated calcium carbonate), referred to as light calcium, is calcined with limestone as raw material to generate lime (calcium oxide) and carbon dioxide, which are digested with water to generate milk of lime (calcium hydroxide), and then pass Carbon dioxide is introduced to form calcium carbonate precipitation, which is finally obtained by dehydration, drying and pulverization
.
The sedimentation volume of light calcium carbonate is 2.
4~2.
8mL/g
.
? Heavy calcium carbonate, referred to as heavy calcium, is a product of mechanically pulverizing natural calcium carbonate minerals, such as calcite, limestone, chalk, and shells, to the appropriate particle size
.
The sedimentation volume of heavy calcium carbonate is 1.
1~1.
4mL/g
.
? Active calcium carbonate, also known as modified calcium carbonate, colloidal calcium carbonate, referred to as live calcium
.
Surface modifier (coupling agent, stearic acid, etc.
) is used to modify the surface of light calcium carbonate or heavy calcium carbonate particles.
The surface-modified calcium carbonate has a reinforcing effect, which is the so-called "active" Therefore, it is customary to call modified calcium carbonate as active calcium carbonate
.
Nano calcium carbonate, abbreviated as nano calcium, is the calcium oxide obtained by calcining selected limestone by the carbonization method.
The calcium hydroxide produced by digesting it is crushed under high shear and the impurities are removed, and carbon dioxide is introduced to obtain carbonic acid.
Calcium slurry is prepared by dehydration, drying and surface treatment
.
2.
The difference between heavy calcium and light calcium? Bulk density: The biggest difference between heavy calcium and light calcium is the difference in bulk density.
Heavy calcium is larger, generally 0.
8~1.
3g/cm3, and light calcium has a smaller bulk density.
Generally 0.
5~0.
7g/cm3
.
? Whiteness: heavy calcium is relatively more impurity, the whiteness of the product is generally 89%~93%, rarely can reach 95% of the product
.
Light calcium is a chemically synthesized product that removes a lot of impurities, and the purity of the product is high.
The whiteness is mostly 92%-95%, and the higher the whiteness can reach 96%-97%, or even higher
.
? Dry flow: From the perspective of fluidity, the microstructure of light calcium is spindle-shaped, and its oil absorption value is large, so its dry flow is obviously not as good as heavy calcium.
Generally, adding more than 25 parts in the formula will flow to the mixture.
Sex has an impact
.
In comparison, heavy calcium is in irregular granular form, which promotes the fluidity of the mixture.
Under the condition that some physical properties of the product are relaxed, the amount of heavy calcium added can be significantly increased
.
? Moisture content: The moisture content of heavy calcium products is relatively low and stable at the same time, generally 0.
2%~0.
3%; the moisture content of light calcium is generally 0.
3%~0.
8%
.
3.
The difference between active calcium and inactive calcium (ordinary calcium)? Hydrophobicity: The surface of active calcium has obvious hydrophobic properties after being coated with activator
.
It can be distinguished by the condition of active calcium and inactive calcium dissolved in water
.
? Fluidity: The surface of activated calcium is coated with organic active agent molecules with lower surface tension, and its surface energy is lower than that of non-activated calcium, and the viscosity resistance between particles is reduced, which makes the fluidity of activated calcium powder significantly improved, which also marks The difference in product dispersion (comparison under the same conditions)
.
? Particle size: As the active calcium surfactant reduces the surface energy of the particles, the agglomeration force of the particles is significantly weakened, and the particle size of the particles is significantly reduced.
The difference between the two products is distinguished by electron microscopy
.
? Oil absorption value: Because the particle size of the active calcium is reduced, the void ratio between the particles is also reduced, making the microscopic surface of the particles smooth and flat
.
Therefore, the oil absorption value of active calcium is lower than that of inactive calcium
