[Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a method for producing expanded graphite, and particularly to a method for producing expanded graphite from wood graphite and natural graphite. [Conventional technology] Expanded graphite has excellent heat resistance and good moldability, so it is used in packing, pipe sealite,
Used for valve seats, gaskets, etc. This expanded graphite can be obtained by treating graphite such as natural graphite, pyrolytic graphite, and hardwood graphite with a mixed solution of a concentrated acid and an acid salt, washing with water, drying, etc., and then heat-treating. In the past, several proposals have been made as improved production methods for this type of expanded graphite, such as:
(1) Japanese Patent Publication No. 57-56512 discloses that expanded graphite obtained as described above is added with a heat-resistant inorganic material and used as a packing material; (2) Japanese Patent Publication No. 54-56
Publication No. 30678 discloses that graphite is oxidized with a mixed acid,
After washing with water, it is taught that graphite is treated with phosphoric acid or phosphate to inhibit oxidation, and then thermally expanded 20 to 70 times. It is disclosed that the oxidizing power is improved and bisulfate radicals are inserted between the layers of graphite through such treatment. [Problems to be solved by the invention] As mentioned above, expanded graphite is ultimately used for packing, etc., but it has a high recovery rate (compression rate) when tightened for sealing, and a problem with parts such as those around automobile engines. Heat resistance under high-temperature conditions and chemical resistance for use in chemical plants are required, but the reality is that sufficient properties have not been obtained under conditions that take manufacturing costs into consideration. For example, in method (1), when mixing expanded graphite and a heat-resistant inorganic material, it is difficult to mix them uniformly because their particle sizes and shapes differ, and the product itself is non-uniform.
Moreover, it is considered that excellent physical properties cannot be obtained. Method (2) requires oxidation suppression treatment with phosphoric acid or phosphate to reduce the expansion rate.
In method (3), which is not economical, it is necessary to maintain the temperature at a low temperature of usually about 20 to 30°C under oxidizing conditions, but it is difficult to maintain this condition in practice. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Therefore, the present invention provides a method for producing expanded graphite that is simple and economical and can produce products with excellent physical properties. [Means for Solving the Problems] The present invention aims to solve the above-mentioned problems by recovering the debris precipitated from the molten metal as at least one of slag or dust, and then recovering it by flotation and pickling. Refined Kitshu graphite with a carbon content of 90% or more is obtained, mixed with natural graphite at a ratio of 30 to 70%, oxidized with a strong inorganic acid in the presence of an oxidizing agent, and then heated to 800°C or more. It is characterized by being expanded through processing. [Function] As mentioned above, the packing is required to have excellent recovery rate, heat resistance, and chemical resistance.
However, all of the examples in the above-mentioned publications use natural graphite as a starting material, but as long as they are based on natural materials, they have poor chemical resistance and are expensive, as in the examples described later. On the other hand, if only hard graphite is used, oxidation resistance (heat resistance) is poor. Therefore, in accordance with the present invention, by using Kizushi graphite and natural graphite in combination, it is possible to satisfy all of the above-mentioned required properties, and when they are used in combination, compared to using each of them alone, , it is possible to increase the decompression rate after compression. On the other hand, since there is not much difference in shape and particle size between Kitshu graphite and natural graphite, they can be mixed without any problem and a homogeneous product can be obtained. Further, the special processing in methods (2) and (3) above shows sufficient connectivity in a normal processing method without setting conditions. [Specific Structure of the Invention] The present invention will be explained in further detail below. In the present invention, wood graphite obtained by refining wood derived from the iron manufacturing process is first prepared. At steelworks, hot metal pretreatment for desulfurization, dephosphorization, and desiliconization is
It has become particularly popular in recent years, and the collected dust and slag are collected to obtain wood precipitated from the molten metal (hot metal). The collection method may be any suitable known method, and may be collected from both dust and slag. For example, the composition of the dust collected during pre-iron pretreatment is as shown in Table 1, and the density is 2 to 3 g/
It is about cc.

[Table] In this case, it is desirable for the refined wood graphite to have a carbon content of 90% or more in order to improve the properties of the final product (for example, packing).

Various local products can be used, examples of which are shown in Table 3.

Next, the effects of the present invention will be clarified through examples. After the hot metal pretreatment, the dust from the hot metal truck to the pot is collected, the collected dust is collected, and the first
Purified through the steps shown in the figure to obtain purified Kyushu graphite with the composition shown in Table 2. This was mixed with Sri Lankan natural graphite at varying proportions of 10%, and each mixture was prepared according to the process shown in Figure 1. A sheet-like product was obtained. A test piece was taken from each sheet. The following tests were conducted on these test pieces. <Chemical Resistance> A test piece of 50 L x 25 W mm was immersed for 5 hours after the test, then taken out, water droplets on the surface were wiped off with a filter paper, and changes in thickness T and weight W were examined.
Four types of chemicals were used, as shown in Figures 2 to 5, and all test solutions were at 50 to 60°C, except for nitric acid, which was at room temperature. <Heating loss test> The weight of a 50 L x 25 W x 1 t test piece was also weighed in advance and set as Wa. Place it in a porcelain crucible and heat it in an electric furnace.
Heate in an oxidizing atmosphere at 450°C for 24 hours or 600°C for 0.5 hours, and after allowing it to cool for 0.5 hours, weigh it to determine Wb, and calculate the loss on heating using equation (1). Heating loss (%) = Wa - Wb / Wa × 100... (1) <Compression/restitution test> One square test piece of 2 x 25 mm is sandwiched with the center aligned, and a preload of 7 Kg/cm 2 15 Add for a second, thick taste
Read T 1 (mm) to 1/100mm, then compress it above the preload to a total load of 350Kg/cm 2 within 10 seconds,
After 60 seconds, read the thickness T 2 (mm) to 1/100mm. After measuring the thickness T 2 , immediately return it to the preload, and after 60 seconds, read the thickness T 3 (mm), and calculate the compression ratio and recovery ratio (2),
Calculate using formula (3) (from JIS R3543 test method). Compression rate (%) = T 1 - T 2 / T 1 × 100 ... (2) Restoration rate (%) = T 3 - T 2 / T 1 - T 2 × 100 ... (3) <Consideration> Chemical resistance The results of heat resistance are shown in Figures 2 to 5, the results of heat resistance are shown in Figure 6, and the results of compressibility and recovery rate are shown in Figure 7. Regarding chemical resistance, the higher the ratio of hard graphite, the better it is, and if the ratio of hard graphite/natural graphite is less than 7/3, it tends to decrease, but it is practically sufficient up to about 3/7. The loss on heating becomes good from about 7/3 to 6/4. While there is no significant difference in the compression ratio, the restoration ratio is 85/15 or less, which is sufficient for practical use, and in particular, about 7/3 to 3/7 is good. [Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to produce the product through normal processing without undergoing any treatment that poses any particular practical problems, and it is also possible to produce the product through normal processing, which is superior to the case of wood graphite and natural graphite alone. Expanded graphite is obtained from which products with characteristics can be obtained.
