Embodiment
Below will the method for silver dollar shape aluminium pigment of the present invention be specifically described, those skilled in the art should understand that following specific descriptions are for the ease of understanding the present invention, not being used for limiting protection scope of the present invention.
In the present invention, term " ball-milling medium ", " mill is situated between " and " abrading-ball " have substantially the same meaning, can exchange use, are meant the material that is used for wet-milling aluminium pigment.Abrading-ball is not to refer to proper sphere material, and it can be ellipsoid, spheroid or other irregular shapes, but should have level and smooth surface usually, and in other words, the abrading-ball surface can not have pointed corner angle or burr.
A key character of the present invention is to adopt three grades of Media density gradient sphere grinding technologies, to obtain the silver dollar shape aluminium pigment of high glossiness, high whiteness, strong metal sense.
First step ball milling adopt diameter between 1.0-3.0mm, material density is at 7.0-9..0g/cm
3The standard sphere material be situated between as ball milling mill, with d
50Minute spherical aluminium powder and organic solvent, dispersant at 5-8 μ m are placed on ball milling in the ball mill.Usually grasp the degree that the first step is ground by the radius-thickness ratio of control aluminium powder.So-called radius-thickness ratio is meant through the mean diameter of the pancake shape aluminum particulate after the first step grinding and the ratio of thickness.In the present invention, preferably stop the first step and grind when radius-thickness ratio reaches between the 20-35, this needs 8-15 hour usually.Solid-liquid separation is carried out in discharging after the first step is ground and finished, and filter cake is scattered in the same solvent again, prepares second stage ball milling.
Feed liquid enters second stage ball mill, the second stage adopt diameter greater than 1.0mm less than 3mm, material density at 5.0-6.9g/cm
3The standard sphere material be situated between as ball milling mill, the radius-thickness ratio that preferably aluminium powder is ground to 35-50 stops, this needs 10-20 hour time usually.Carry out solid-liquid separation then, filter cake is scattered in the same solvent again, prepares third stage ball milling.
Feed liquid enters third stage ball mill, the third stage adopt diameter greater than 1.0mm less than 3mm, material density at 2.0-4.0g/cm
3The standard sphere material be situated between as ball milling mill, ball milling to the L15 value (characterizing gloss degree) of aluminium powder progressively improves, and does not have obvious raising (L15 raising<0.2%) time after half an hour and stop continuing ball milling, needs 10-20 hour usually.
Third stage ball milling finishes the back discharging, by the screening of 500 eye mesh screens, and press filtration, filtrate is got back to the ball milling operation and is recycled.Filter cake adds in the kneader, adds a spot of antioxidant simultaneously, and after a spot of dispersion agent and the proper amount of solvent, solid content becomes 70% and mediates processing 1 hour, and packing promptly becomes high glossiness, high whiteness and high-metal-sense aluminum silver paste product.
The present invention adopts the abrading-ball density gradient of successively decreasing, and first step ball milling adopts high-density medium, and at the preliminary stage that aluminium powder deformation takes place, high-density medium can provide bigger shearing force and bigger transmission ofenergy, helps to improve grinding efficiency.After the deformation of aluminium powder reaches certain degree, adopt second stage ball milling.Density medium during second stage ball milling adopts reduces shearing force and transmission ofenergy, and the deformation of aluminium powder is further carried out under relatively mild condition, guaranteed simultaneously the preliminary aluminium powder of sheetization the deformation of fierceness does not too appear and ftracture, fragmentation.Third stage ball milling adopts low-density medium, further aluminium powder is processed, the main purpose of this step is to finish sheet processing and to the modification of polishing of aluminium powder surface, guarantee that aluminium powder has the good appearance pattern under the gentleest condition, smooth surface, smooth, neat in edge, mellow and full.
The selection of ball-milling medium
In the present invention, first step ball milling adopts the mill of particle diameter between 1-3mm to be situated between.If particle diameter is too small at single mill ball quality less than 1mm, is difficult to aluminium powder is caused effective impact, thereby reduces grinding efficiency; If particle diameter is greater than 3mm, then the space is too big between abrading-ball, is difficult to abundant extruded aluminium powder particles, reduces the validity of ball milling equally.The preferred particle diameter of the present invention is between 1.8-2.2mm.First step ball milling preferably uses density at 7.0-9.0g/cm
3Between abrading-ball.If density is less than 7.0g/cm
3, then mill ball quality kicks the beam, and needs the long one-level ball milling time, corresponding reduction production efficiency; If density is excessive, then excessive to the surging force of aluminum particle, may make the crack at edge of aluminum particulate.In actual production, consider the being easy to get property of material, first step ball milling adopts high-carbon steel ball, bearing steel ball or Stainless Steel Ball.But the present invention is not limited to this, and density is at 7.0-9.0g/cm
3Other materials (normally metallic substance) also is suitable in the scope.
The second stage of the present invention ball milling preferably uses density at 5.0-6.9g/cm
3Between abrading-ball, to reduce shearing force and transmission ofenergy, the deformation of aluminium powder is further carried out under relatively mild condition, guaranteed that the preliminary aluminium powder of sheetization the deformation of fierceness too do not occur and causes phenomenons such as cracking, fragmentation.If density is less than 5.0g/cm
3, then mill ball quality kicks the beam, and needs the long one-level ball milling time, corresponding reduction production efficiency.In a specific embodiment provided by the invention, it is that mill is situated between that second stage ball milling preferably adopts zirconia ball, and density is at 5.95-6.05g/cm
3Between.But the present invention is not limited to this, and density is at 5.0-6.9g/cm
3Other materials in the scope also is suitable for.
Mill Jie density of third stage ball milling suits at 2.0-4.0g/cm
3Between, the alumina balls that can buy on the market, agate ball or glass sphere are good selections, their density is at 2.3-3.6g/cm
3Between.
Dispersion medium
Use solvent as dispersion medium, choice of Solvent need not strict be controlled, and can use common solvent, and for example, mineral oil, petroleum naphtha can also use alcohol (for example Virahol), ether, ketone, ester etc., and other traditional ball milling solvent all can be selected.Solvent and aluminium powder weight ratio are 2.5 to 10, and abrading-ball and aluminium powder weight ratio be 20 to 110, and make with lubricator as grinding aid.Equally, can make water (at least as major portion) as solvent.
Ball-milling additive
As lubricant, can adopt alkyl fatty acid with 10 to 24 carbon atoms, it uses for many years.The preferred saturated or unsaturated fatty acids that uses C12-C18 as stearic acid, oleic acid, lauric acid, tetradecanoic acid, Unimac 5680, butyl stearic acid etc., also can adopt ester, amine salt, acid amides and the oligopolymer etc. of above-mentioned carboxylic acid.When using stearic acid, formed and floated pigment as lubricant.On the other hand, use oleic acid to form the non-pigment that floats.Float pigment and be characterised in that they are buoyant in paint medium (for example lacquer or printing-ink), promptly they swim on the surface of paint medium.On the other hand, non-ly float pigment and in paint medium, assemble, for example also the long-chain aminocompound can be added in the lipid acid.Lipid acid can come from animal or plant.Equally, organo phosphorous compounds can be used as lubricant.Under the situation that makes water as dispersion medium, institute with lubricator should have significant corrosion-resisting function, preferably phosphoric acid ester or phosphorous acid ester.
In mechanical milling process, can add other auxiliary agents as required, corrosion inhibitor for example is as benzotriazole or amine substance; The homogenate agent is as various organosilicons, fluorine-containing tensio-active agent; Anti-heavy agent, for example organic bentonite, polyethylene wax, polyamide wax, aerosil etc.
