Definitions

  • the invention relates to powdery amorphous solids having a very small average particle size and a narrow particle size distribution, a process for their preparation, and their use.
  • Fine-particle, amorphous silicic acid and silicates have been industrially produced for decades.
  • the fine grinding in spiral or counter-jet mills is carried out with compressed air as the grinding gas, e.g. EP 0139279.
  • the achievable particle diameter is proportional to the root of the reciprocal of the collision velocity of the particles.
  • the impact velocity in turn is determined by the jet velocity of the expanding gas jets of the respective grinding medium from the nozzles used.
  • superheated steam can be used to generate very small particle sizes, since the acceleration capacity of steam is about 50% greater than that of air.
  • the use of steam has the disadvantage that, in particular during the startup of the mill, condensation can occur in the entire grinding system, which generally results in the formation of agglomerates and crusts during the grinding process.
  • US Pat. No. 3,367,742 describes a process for grinding aerogels in which aerogels having a mean particle diameter of 1.8 to 2.2 ⁇ m are obtained. Milling to a mean particle diameter of less than 1 ⁇ m is not possible with this technique. Furthermore, the particles of US 3,367,742 have a broad Particle size distribution with particle diameters of 0.1 to 5.5 ⁇ m and a particle size> 2 ⁇ m of 15 to 20%.
  • the inventors have surprisingly found that it is possible to amorphous solids by means of a very specific to marry in claims 1 to 19 near the specified method to a mean particle size d 5 o of less than 1.5 microns and also a very narrow particle distribution to reach .
  • the object is thus achieved by the method specified in more detail in the claims and the description below and the amorphous solids specified there.
  • the invention accordingly provides a process for grinding amorphous solids by means of a grinding system (milling apparatus), preferably comprising a jet mill, characterized in that the mill in the milling phase with a resource selected from a group consisting of gas and / or steam, preferred Steam, and / or a gas containing water vapor, is, is operated and that the grinding chamber is heated in a heating phase, ie before the actual operation with the resources, such that the temperature in the grinding chamber and / or at the mill output higher than the dew point of Steam and / or resources is.

  • precipitated silicas, fumed silicas, silicates and silica gels to achieve such small average particle sizes was previously possible only by wet milling. As a result, only dispersions could be obtained. The drying of these dispersions led to reagglomeration of the amorphous particles, so that the effect of the milling was partially reversed and average particle sizes d 5 o ⁇ 1.5 microns and particle size distribution dgo value ⁇ 2 microns are not achieved in the dried, powdery solids could. In the case of drying of gels, the porosity was also adversely affected.
  • the process according to the invention has the advantage that it is a dry milling process which leads directly to pulverulent products with a very small mean particle size, which can also have a high porosity in a particularly advantageous manner ,
  • the problem of reagglomeration during drying is eliminated because no grinding of the downstream drying step is necessary.
  • Another advantage of the method according to the invention in one of its preferred embodiments is the fact that the grinding can take place simultaneously with the drying, so that z. B. a filter cake can be further processed directly. This saves an additional drying step and at the same time increases the space-time yield.
  • the inventive method also has the advantage that when starting up the grinding system no or only very small amounts of condensate in the grinding system, especially in the mill arise. On cooling, dried gas can be used. As a result, no condensate is produced in the grinding system during cooling and the cooling phase is significantly shortened. The effective machine running times can thus be increased.
  • the amorphous pulverulent solids produced by means of the process according to the invention have particularly good properties when used in surface coating systems, for example because of the very special and unique average particle sizes and particle size distributions.
  • the products of the invention allow z. B. due to the very small average particle size and in particular the low dgo value and dgg value to produce very thin coatings.
  • powder and pulverulent solids are used interchangeably in the context of the present invention and each denote finely comminuted, solid substances from small dry particles, dry particles meaning that they are externally dry particles. Although these particles usually have a water content, this water is so firmly bound to the particles or in their capillaries that it is not released at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. In other words, it is perceptible by optical methods particulate matter and not suspensions or dispersions. Furthermore, these may be both surface-modified and non-surface-modified solids. The surface modification is preferably carried out with carbon-containing coating agents and can be carried out both before and after the grinding.
  • the solids according to the invention can be present as gel or as particles containing agglomerates and / or aggregates.

  • the grinding pressure of the grinding gas prevailing at the grinding nozzles, or the resulting amount of grinding gas in connection with the speed of the dynamic Schaufelradsichters determine the fineness of the grain distribution function and the upper grain limit.
