dispersant | sodium polyacrylate is a commonly used dispersant, also known as sodium 2-acrylate homopolymer, colorless or light yellow viscous liquid at room temperature, non-toxic, weak alkaline, insoluble in ethanol, acetone and other organic solvents, soluble in water and sodium hydroxide aqueous solution, but in calcium hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide and other aqueous solution with the increase in the number of alkaline earth metal ions, first dissolved and then precipitated. It can be operated under the conditions of alkali and medium concentration multiple without scaling, the molecular weight is about 500-3000, and the microcrystalline or sediment of calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate and other salts can be dispersed in water without precipitation, so as to achieve the purpose of scale inhibition, in addition to the use of power plants, chemical plants, fertilizer plants, oil refineries and air conditioning systems and other circulating cooling water systems in the scale and dispersant. Also widely used in paper and textile printing and dyeing, ceramics, coatings, building materials and other industries. When used as dispersant for paper coating, the relative molecular mass is 2000-4000, and the coating concentration is 65% ~ 70%, it still has good rheological property and aging stability. Molecular weight between 1000-3000, used as water stabilizer and black liquor concentration scale control agent. Molecular weight of 100000 or more, used as coating thickener and water retention agent, can make the carboxylated styrene butadiene latex, acrylate emulsion and other synthetic latex viscosity growth, to avoid the precipitation of water, to maintain the stability of the coating system. Molecular weight above 1000000, used as flocculant. It can also be used as a super absorbent resin, a soil conditioner, and a tackifier, an emulsifying dispersant, etc. in the food industry. The molecular structure of sodium polyacrylate is a water-soluble linear polymer. The small relative molecular mass is a liquid, and the large may be a solid. Commercial solids are white powders or granules, Odorless and tasteless, water swelling, soluble in aqueous caustic soda. Highly hygroscopic. High molecular compounds with hydrophilic and hydrophobic groups. Slowly dissolve in water to form a very viscous transparent liquid, the viscosity of the first solution of about 0.5% CP, its viscosity is not like CMC and sodium alginate as water swelling, but because of the Ionic phenomenon of many anionic groups in the molecule, the molecular chain grows, and the viscosity is increased to form a highly viscous solution. Its viscosity is about 15-20 times that of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and sodium alginate. It has good alkali resistance, little change in viscosity for a long time and is not easy to rot. Heat treatment, neutral salts, organic acids have little effect on the viscosity, alkaline viscosity increases. Strong heat to 300 degrees does not decompose. Because of the electrolyte, it is susceptible to the influence of acid and metal ions, and the viscosity is reduced. When a sufficient amount of divalent or above metal ions (such as aluminum, lead, iron, calcium, magnesium, zinc) form their insoluble salts, causing molecular crosslinking and gelation precipitation. However, when the amount of the divalent metal ion is small, it is still a solution, so it can be used as a washing aid to prevent the re-deposition of dirt. |
