Definitions
- Disclosed herein are stabilized kaolin slurries and methods of making such stabilized kaolin slurries.
- Kaolin clay has many known applications in industry, including, for example, use as a filler in papermaking, a coating for paper, and a pigment in paint.
- Kaolin products are often shipped in a high solid slurry form. Slurries of coarse platy clays tend to settle quickly, making them difficult to transport.
- thickening agents such as carboxymethylcellulose (CMC)
- CMC carboxymethylcellulose
- the present disclosure relates to a stabilized kaolin slurry comprising:
- the stabilized kaolin slurry has a solids content of at least about 40%, and a 28-day pour test result of at least about 80% poured, such as at least 85% and further such as at least 89% poured.
- Such stabilized kaolin slurries are generally sufficiently stable to permit normal shipping and handling.
- the present disclosure relates to a method for making a stabilized kaolin slurry by reducing the levels of residual salts in a kaolin slurry, prior to addition of a conventional thickener or stabilizer such as carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) or the like.
- CMC carboxymethylcellulose
- the present inventors hypothesize that residual salts (electrolytes), such as aluminum and calcium, are released over a short period of time after slurry makedown. These residual salts are weakly absorbed by large kaolin particles because of their relatively large proportion of surface areas. Once released, the residual salts react with the stabilizer to reduce its efficacy and preventing effective slurry stabilization.
- one aspect of the present disclosure relates to a method of making a stabilized kaolin slurry, comprising:
- the conductivity of the kaolin after filtering and rinsing can be, for example, no more than about 100 ⁇ S, such as no more than about 80 ⁇ S, and even such as no more than about 60 ⁇ S.
- Another aspect of the present disclosure provides a method of stabilizing a kaolin slurry comprising:
- Another aspect of the present disclosure provides a method of stabilizing a kaolin slurry comprising:
- kaolin slurry having a solids content of greater than 40% and comprising no more than about 80% by weight of particles having an equivalent spherical diameter (ESD) of less than 2 microns;
- the pH can be adjusted to a value ranging from about 5.0 to about 6.0, or even from about 5.5 to about 6.0.
- slurries falling into these pH ranges can often be stabilized without addition of any stabilizer. It may, however, be necessary in some cases to add a small amount of a dispersant to adjust the viscosity of the partially stabilized slurry into a range suitable for pumping.
- ESD equivalent spherical diameter
- SEDIGRAPHTM instrument e.g., SEDIGRAPH 5100, obtained from Micromeritics Corporation, USA.
- a coarse and platy kaolin clay refers to, for example, a kaolin comprising no more than about 80% by weight of particles having an ESD of less than 2 microns, such as no more than about 70% by weight of particles having an ESD of less than 2 microns, further such as no more than about 60% by weight of particles having an ESD of less than 2 microns, even further such as no more than about 50% by weight of particles having an ESD of less than 2 microns, and even further such as no more than about 40% by weight of particles having an ESD of less than 2 microns.
- the coarse and platy kaolin clay refers to a kaolin comprising no more than about 50%, such as no more than about 40%, by weight of particles having an ESD of less than 2 microns.
- the coarse and platy kaolin clay refers to a kaolin comprising from about 20% to about 65% by weight, such as from about 25% to about 60% by weight, further such as from about 25% to about 45% by weight, and even further such as 35% by weight of particles having an ESD of less than 2 microns.
- the kaolin disclosed herein can have a shape factor of, for example, at least about 25, such as at least about 30 and further such as at least about 45.
- shape factor as used herein is a measure of an average value (on a weight average basis) of the ratio of mean particle diameter to particle thickness for a population of particles of varying size and shape as measured using the electrical conductivity method and apparatus described in GB-A-2240398/U.S. Pat. No. 5,128,606/EP-A-0528078, which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety, and using the equations derived in these patent specifications.
- the stabilized kaolin slurry disclosed herein can have a solids content ranging from about 40% to about 60% by weight relative to the total weight of the slurry, such as from about 45% to about 55%, and further such as from about 50% to about 60% by weight relative to the total weight of the slurry.
- the stabilized kaolin slurry has a solids content of at least 40%, such as at least 45%, and further such as at least 50% by weight relative to the total weight of the slurry.
- Viscosity is a measure of a clay's resistance to changes in flow. Those having ordinary skill in the art are familiar with typical ways of measuring viscosity, which include, for example, Brookfield viscosity and Hercules viscosity.
- Brookfield viscometers provide a measure of a clay slurry's low shear viscosity, expressed in units of centipoise (cp).
- centipoise is equal to one centimeter-gram-second unit.
- One centipoise is one hundredth (10 ⁇ 2 ) of a poise.
- a 100 centipoise sample has a lower viscosity than a 500 centipoise sample.
- Hercules viscometers provide a measure of a clay slurry's high shear viscosity. Hercules viscosity is typically measured by placing a cylinder (bob) of appropriate diameter and length (typically the A-bob) into a sample clay slurry. Hercules viscosities of various samples can be compared by holding constant the percent solids concentration of the sample, the bob size, and the applied force. The Hercules viscometer applies a force to the bob which causes it to spin at a controlled accelerating rate. As the viscometer increases the bob spin rate, the viscous drag on the cup increases.
- Clay slurries with poor high shear rheology will exert the maximum measurable force on the cup at a lower bob rpm than clay slurries with “good” high shear rheology.
- Hercules viscosity is therefore typically expressed in terms of bob spin rates, or revolutions per minute (rpm) as a function of the relative applied force (dynes).
- rpm revolutions per minute
- a “dyne endpoint” is an indication of very low Hercules viscosity. A dyne endpoint is reached when the bob reaches its maximum rpm before the maximum measurable force is exerted on the cup.
- the stabilized kaolin slurry disclosed herein can have a Brookfield viscosity at 50% adjusted solids ranging, for example, from about 300 cps to about 700 cps as determined by a Brookfield model DV.1 digital viscometer using a #2 spindle at 20 rpm.
- the stabilized kaolin slurry can also have a Brookfield viscosity at 50% adjusted solids of, for example, at least about 400 cps as determined by a Brookfield model DV.1 digital viscometer using a #2 spindle at 20 rpm.
- the stabilized kaolin slurry has a Hercules viscosity at 50% adjusted solids of less than 10 dynes at 4400 rpm using an “A” bob.
- the stabilized kaolin slurry can have a pH ranging, for example, from about 5.5 to about 9.5, and further, for example, from about 6.5 to about 7.5.
- the pH can typically range from about 4.5 to about 7.5, such as from about 5.0 to about 6.5, further such as from about 5.0 to about 6.0, even further such as from about 5.5 to about 6.0, and even further such as from about 5.7 to about 5.8.
- the pour test can be used as an indicator of the long term stability of the kaolin slurries.
- a number of samples of the slurry are placed into beakers and weighed. At the selected time intervals, one of the beakers is upended and the sample is allowed to pour out for a period of 1 minute. The beaker is then re-weighed and the percentage of sample that successfully poured from the beaker is determined as a percentage of the total initial sample weight. Generally, the higher the pour-test percentage, the more stable the slurry against settling.
- the at least one stabilizer disclosed herein comprises, for example, at least one cellulosic thickener, such as CMC.
- the at least one cellulosic thickener can be chosen, for example, from alkyl celluloses, ethylhydroxyethyl celluloses, hydroxymethyl celluloses, hydroxyethyl celluloses, and hydroxypropyl celluloses.
- the at least one stabilizer disclosed herein can be chosen, for example, from montmorillonite, smectite clays, hydrophobically modified ethoxylated urethanes, high molecular weight polyacrylates, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, sodium alginate, xanthan gum, silica thickeners, sodium magnesium silicate, acrylic acid copolymers, and nonionic hydrophobically modified polyethers.
- the at least one stabilizer disclosed herein can be present in an amount ranging from about 0.01% to about 4% by weight, such as from about 0.01% to about 2% by weight, relative to the total weight of the slurry.
- the stabilized kaolin slurry disclosed herein is substantially free of any dispersant (i.e., comprising less than 100 ppm by weight of dispersant on a dry basis).
- the stabilized kaolin slurry disclosed herein further comprises at least one dispersant.
- the at least one dispersant is present in an amount of, for example, less than about 250 ppm on a dry basis, such as ranging from about 100 ppm to about 200 ppm by weight on a dry basis relative to the total weight of the slurry.
- the at least one dispersant is present in an amount from about 100 ppm to about 500 ppm by weight on a dry basis, relative to the total weight of the slurry.
- the at least one dispersant disclosed herein can comprise, for example, at least one polyelectrolyte chosen, for example, from polyacrylates and copolymers comprising at least one polyacrylate, polyphosphates, and silicates such as sodium silicate, lithium silicate, and ammonium silicate.
- the filtering and rinsing operation of a kaolin slurry by water to remove salt residue can be conducted by any conventional process known in the field.
- a lab ceramic filter funnel attached with a flask can be used for the filtering and rinsing operation, which simulates the filtering/dewatering action by a typical rotary vacuum filter.
- the top of the funnel has a shape of a large cup with a flat and porous bottom. Filter paper is placed on the porous bottom of the funnel cup. Slurry is poured into the cup.
- the flask attached below the funnel is connected to a vacuum pump that pulls the water through filter paper into the flask.
- a moisten cake of the kaolin forms in the cup. Additional water may then be poured into the cup one or more times to effect the rinsing operation.
- Other conventional dewatering methods that may be used in accordance with the present invention further include clarification, settling, centrifugal washing, rotary vacuum filtration and pressure filtration.
- a kaolin slurry is stabilized using the method disclosed herein and has a 28-day pour test result of at least 80% poured, such as at least 85% poured, and further such as at least 89% poured.
- substantially no dispersant is added to the kaolin slurry in the method disclosed herein.
- the method of making a stabilized kaolin slurry disclosed herein further comprises adding at least one dispersant.
- the at least one dispersant can be the same as described as above. It can be present in an amount ranging, for example, from about 100 ppm to about 200 ppm by weight, relative to the total weight of the slurry on a dry basis.
- the method of making a stabilized kaolin slurry disclosed herein can further comprise flocculating a kaolin slurry prior to the filtering and rinsing operation.
- the flocculation can be accomplished by any conventional process known in the field.
- the flocculation can be accomplished by lowering the pH of the kaolin slurry to a value of about 5 or less.
- the method of making a stabilized kaolin slurry can further comprise spray drying a kaolin slurry prior to the filtering and rinsing operation.
- the kaolin slurry comprises kaolin having no more than about 80% by weight particles having an ESD of less than 2 microns;
- a coarse platy kaolin clay having a particle size distribution such that about 56% by weight of the particles have an ESD of less than 2 microns and about 9% by weight of the particles have an ESD of less than 0.25 microns.
- This coarse platy kaolin clay was first spray-dried, and then subjected to one of the six methods as shown below—control, A, B, C, D, and E:
- the T-bar method was used to measure the vertical viscosity distribution of the samples, which changes as settling occurs over time. Typically, the viscosity of the top portion of a sample will decrease and that of the lower portion will increase as settling occurs. T-bar measurements are made using a Brookfield viscometer fitted with a Brookfield Helipath Stand and a special “T-bar” type spindle. The Helipath stand slowly raises or lowers the Brookfield viscometer so that the rotating shearing element of the T-bar spindle describes a helical path through the test sample. By always cutting into fresh material, the problems of channeling or separating are minimized. In the current example, samples can be considered fully settled when the upper T-bar viscosity approaches “0” cps and the lower approaches 400,000 cps. In the current example, monitoring of a given sample was terminated after a full settling measurement.
- the pour test method was also used to assess the long term stability of the kaolin slurries.
- a number of samples of the slurry were placed into beakers and weighed. At the selected time intervals, one of the beakers was upended and the sample was allowed to pour out for a period of 1 minute. The beaker was then re-weighed and the percentage of sample that successfully poured from the beaker was determined as a percentage of the total initial sample weight.
- the samples were then poured into a pint jar for a 28 day stability test in accordance with the procedures described below. The samples were tested for solids concentration, Brookfield viscosity at 20 rpm, pH, and Hercules viscosity before beginning the stability test.
- the stability test includes monitoring the viscosity of the slurry over a 28 day period using a T-bar spindle. Readings were taken at 7 day intervals and were read at about 1 ⁇ 2 inch from the top surface of the slurry for the upper reading and about 1 ⁇ 2 inch from the bottom for the lower reading. After 28 days, the weight percent of the slurry that poured out of the jar in 1 minute was measured and was designated as the first pour. The sample was returned to the jar and shaken for a few seconds and again poured out for 1 minute to obtain the weight percent of the slurry for the second pour. Brookfield viscosity and Hercules viscosity were then measured on this material.
- pH alone could be used to make a stable slurry from the coarse hydrous kaolin slurry.
- the pH may range from about 5.5 to about 6.0.
- the slurry solids should be maintained lower than about 50% in order to be fluid enough to pump easily.
- the addition of just 0.5 pounds per ton i.e., about 0.25 kilograms per ton
- results could be achieved when the polyacrylate was added after the soda ash or at the same time. Excessive shearing can also have a detrimental effect on the slurry solids. For example, a test that sheared the slurry for 30 minutes in a Waring blender reduced the solids of the final slurry from 57% to 54%.
