Description

High content far infrared ray elastomer and manufacturing method thereof

The invention relates to a high content far-infrared elastomer and a manufacturing method thereof, in particular to a far-infrared technology capable of improving the intensity of far-infrared irradiance.

According to the far-infrared material, it is generally obtained by mixing dozens of metal oxides (such as cerium oxide, aluminum oxide, calcium oxide, etc.) or by grinding the ore into a powder. If the far-infrared powder material is made into a health care product for human use, the far-infrared powder must be carried through the carrier. In general, most of the carriers commonly found on the market are made of ceramics, plastics, rubber, fibers or glue. The far-infrared radiation product prepared by mixing the carrier with the far-infrared powder material depends on the proportion of the far-infrared powder. In other words, far infrared ray is like an invisible light, and it appears in the form of light. Just like a light bulb, the brightness of a light source emitted by a 5W and 100W light bulb is different. The same is true for the radiation of far infrared rays. The high content of far-infrared powder in the carrier can enhance the irradiance and exert the far-infrared effect. At present, the products in the market only emphasize the high emissivity of far-infrared rays, but the content is too low, so that the far-infrared irradiance is insufficient, and the far-infrared effect cannot be fully utilized.

According to the research, any carrier can meet the requirements of molding and physical properties, and the proportion of far-infrared powder added will be limited to some extent. For example, ceramic loading The proportion of the far-infrared powder of the body is about 35%; the content of the far-infrared powder of the rubber carrier is about 30%; the content of the far-infrared powder of the fiber carrier is about 5%; the far-infrared powder of the glue carrier The content of the material is about 50%. In addition, ceramic carriers must consider the constraints of molding, hardness and firing temperature; rubber carriers must consider the limiting factors such as sulfur molding and crosslink density; plastic carriers must consider the degree of fusion. And the limiting factors such as brittleness; the glue carrier must consider the viscosity and the limiting factors such as molding. Although the prior art has used a high filling method to increase the ratio of the content of the silicone to the far-infrared powder to more than 50%, however, since the high-infrared filling will cause the pH value to be too high, it will affect the vulcanization molding. The efficiency, and thus the rubber carrier, cannot be made into an elastomer, which causes inconvenience and trouble in production.

Furthermore, far infrared rays have been found to be more than 50 years old. It is known from known clinical experiments that far infrared ray products are very versatile. In the human body, far-infrared rays can penetrate into the human body and heat from the inside of the human body, which not only can promote the expansion of the human micro-vessels, make the blood circulation of the human body smoother, and achieve the health-care effect of promoting metabolism, and can increase the immunity and treatment of the human body. Rate; However, since the development of the far-infrared industry, relevant companies seem to have been focusing on the discussion of thermal effects, so that the role of far-infrared rays is misunderstood in concept, and it is misunderstood that far-infrared products must use heaters as heating actions. The research and development and application of far-infrared products are subject to the framework limitation caused by misunderstanding of concepts, so that the relevant manufacturers mostly ignore the non-thermal effect of far-infrared rays when developing products. In fact, far infrared rays also have a very significant energy radiation effect at normal temperature. Why are there far-reaching energy radiation effects of far-infrared products developed by relevant companies? And can’t be widely accepted by consumers The favor? This problem has become a technical problem that the technical field of the related art is eager to solve and overcome.

According to the knowledge, some other manufacturers have used silicone rubber as the carrier of far-infrared powder, and tried to use high filling to increase the proportion of far-infrared powder, in order to achieve the highest coverage of far-infrared powder, even beyond the general The coverage of the carrier is such that a better far-infrared radiation effect is pursued. According to the experience of the creator for researching far-infrared products for many years, it is known that the far-infrared product of the conventional silicone carrier has a colloid of about 100 parts by weight (phr) and a bridging agent of about 0.5 part by weight (phr). When the powder is 50 parts by weight (phr), it can be forcibly treated with sulfur; when the far-infrared powder is 100 parts by weight (phr), the sulfurization treatment may result in incomplete vulcanization, so that it is insufficient. It has the purpose of cross-linking with the carrier, and thus cannot be used as a commonly used far-infrared elastomer (such as a flexible patch).

Furthermore, many related companies generally believe that it is only necessary to add 5-10 parts by weight (phr) of far-infrared powder on the carrier to measure good far-infrared emissivity, even to the pure far-infrared powder. The emissivity of some of the relevant industry has been misled by the above concept; and many related industry players are based on cost considerations, reducing the proportion of far-infrared powder content, resulting in poor energy emission of far-infrared products. In fact, the intensity of far-infrared rays depends on the irradiance (W/m ² .um), not the misunderstood emissivity. Therefore, the higher the proportion of far-infrared powder, the higher the irradiance (ie, the radiated power). The stronger; that is, the effect of far infrared energy radiation is better.

In order to improve the above-mentioned deficiency, the related art has developed a patent as shown in the invention announcement No. 362981, "Energy Silicone Patch, Gasket and Method of Making the Same", which is used to increase the penetration ratio of far-infrared ore, ceramic powder and silicone rubber. Mixed by high pressure grinding, and then specific The proportion is sequentially forced and mixed by a high-pressure grinding machine, and a small amount of mixing is repeated, and the hardening mucus and the sulfurizing agent are repeatedly added repeatedly, and the high-pressure grinding is continued to uniformly mix until the two are combined in an average manner, and then, after the rolling, the die-casting heating is performed. Until hardened into elastic energy 矽 film. The patent can increase the proportion of far-infrared powder content by 50-65%, and increase the irradiance to a certain degree of intensity; however, the patent far-infrared powder content ratio still does not reach the maximum coverage, due to the bridging agent The addition ratio with the hardened mucilage is one of the factors affecting the effect of forming the elastic sheet, so that the far-infrared product prepared by the patent still does not achieve the better energy radiation effect; in addition, the patent is used when mixing, far infrared powder The body must be mixed in a small number of repeated additions, resulting in an increase in manufacturing processes and labor costs. Therefore, the patent does not require improvement.

The reason is that the creator of the present invention believes that the above-mentioned conventional structure and the aforementioned patents are indeed not perfect, and there is still a need for further improvement. Therefore, the creator of the present invention has learned from years of continuous efforts and research that the far-infrared powder is The pH value affects the treatment effect of the vulcanization, so the bridging agent must be increased to a certain ratio, and a decane coupling agent must be added, so that the carrier can be formed into a specific high proportion of far-infrared elastomer.

The main object of the present invention is to provide a high-content far-infrared elastomer, which is mainly used to increase the coverage ratio of the far-infrared powder to the carrier by an innovative method to increase the intensity of the far-infrared irradiance. In addition, the radiation effect of the far-infrared energy is enhanced, and a significant energy radiation effect can be produced in both the heated state and the normal temperature state, thereby improving the effect of human health care. The technical means for achieving the main object of the present invention is a mixture of a material formulation comprising an elastic material and a far-infrared material. The elastic material accounts for 10 to 34.9% by weight, and the far-infrared material accounts for 65.1 to 90% by weight.
