Definitions
- the invention relates to an oven comprising several tanks in series, each equipped with at least one submerged burner, making it possible to melt efficiently, that is to say with a low rate of unfathomable and for reduced energy consumption, the compositions comprising silica.
- the invention relates more particularly to the preparation of glass compositions such as glass frits, in particular glass coloring frits, or frits used in the composition of enamels, glazes and engobes, such as generally black enamel, which may contain manganese oxide, placed on the periphery of automobile glazing.
- glass frits in particular glass coloring frits, or frits used in the composition of enamels, glazes and engobes, such as generally black enamel, which may contain manganese oxide, placed on the periphery of automobile glazing.
- an enamel is a glass with a low melting point and which is intended to be applied in a layer on a support, which may be ceramic (in the case of glaze), glass or metal.
- compositions may or may not contain coloring agents, opacifiers or other additives used either for coloring other glasses in the mass, or for decorating on the surface ceramic, metallic, vitreous or other supports.
- the invention notably allows not only the easy production of frits for enamels described in EP 1067100 and EP 0883579, but also the direct production of said enamels.
- Glass coloring frits are special compositions which are added to another majority glass composition so as to incorporate an additive, such as a pigment, into said majority composition.
- a glass coloring frit is in the form of pieces of glass, generally square, with a volume ranging for example from 0.5 to 3 cm 3 , said pieces being added to a composition of molten glass circulating in a channel supply to a forming station, for example of hollow glass (flasks, bottles, etc.). These solid frits are thrown into the majority molten glass, generally between 1250 and 1350 ° C. The frit then melts and mixes with the majority glass composition, if necessary under the action of homogenization means such as stirrers.
- the coloring frit generally represents 1 to 5% of the mass of the final glass. Indeed, a dye (or pigment), generally an oxide, is not added directly to a composition in fusion, because it would tend to fall directly to the bottom and would mix very badly with the rest of the glass, and moreover it would fly away significantly under the effect of the large gas flows coming from the burners. This is why we use glass coloring frits, because it improves homogenization with the majority glass and this removes the flight under the effect of gas flow.
- the invention solves the above-mentioned problems.
- the process according to the invention leads, with high productivities, low take-offs and short residence times of the batch materials, to glass compositions with little unfounded or even free of unfounded.
- the transition times for switching from one composition to another are very short.
- the invention generally allows the use of lower temperatures and therefore the use of less expensive materials. Thanks to the short transition times that it allows, the oven according to the invention can also be used for the preparation of ready-to-use enamel (for building or automotive or other glazing), that is to say a enamel obtained directly from its raw materials and then ground and no longer, as in the case of the prior art, an enamel obtained by mixing a ground frit and the pigment.
- the arrangement according to the invention of several reactors in series makes it possible to considerably lower the temperature of the reactors while retaining the quality of the finished product expressed in terms of merge, homogeneity and even the general level of broths (that is to say i.e. the amount of bubbles remaining trapped in the finished product).
- the lower temperature of the reactors also has the advantage that the infiltration of glass into the interstices of the refractories of the furnace is less significant. In fact, the infiltrated melt solidifies faster in the refractory due to the lower temperature and plugs the gap at a level closer to the interior of the furnace.
- Another advantage of the invention lies in the fact that the glasses and in particular the frits being generally very aggressive for refractory materials, a low level of temperature makes it possible to extend the life of the oven. It is thus possible to use a conventional glassware construction: refractory in contact with the molten glass, an insulator being placed behind said refractory. It is also possible to choose for the whole or only part of the oven a solution consisting in the use of an assembly comprising a refractory in contact with the molten glass, a cooled metal sheet being placed behind said refractory, this solution being recommended in the where life is favored over specific consumption, and moreover, this solution eliminates risks of pouring out of the oven due to the great fluidity of the compositions.
- the process according to the invention involves the continuous melting of a composition comprising silica in an oven comprising at least two tanks and preferably three tanks in series, said tanks each comprising at least one burner immersed in the molten materials, the first tank being generally brought to a higher temperature than the first.
- Silica and silica flux are placed in the first tank.
- most of the sintered silica ie at least 80% and preferably at least 90% by weight of the sintered silica and preferably all of it is placed in the first tank, which is generally hotter than the other tank (s) in the oven.
- at least 80% and preferably at least 90% by weight and even all of the silica flux is placed in the first tank.
- Submerged burners have the dual function of heating the batch materials and of homogenizing the composition. Given the strong mixing they produce, the friction and the projection of the molten materials against the walls is usually the cause of wear of said walls, not only below the level of the molten materials but also above, in particular at level of the vault, due to large projections.
- the invention makes it possible to significantly reduce this phenomenon due to the lower temperatures required, in particular when only the first tank has a high temperature for effectively melting most of the silica, the following tank (s) being brought to a more moderate temperature. Due to this more moderate temperature, the molten material is more viscous and the projections and movements of molten material are less, which results in lower wear of the walls.
- the more viscous molten materials show a lower tendency to enter the interstices or defects of the walls, which also facilitates the purging of the oven in the case of a change in composition to be manufactured (reduction of the transition time ).
- the first tank is brought to the highest temperature of the oven, the other tank having either an identical temperature or a lower temperature.
- the tank or tanks after the first have a temperature lower than that of the first, this difference generally being at least 80 ° C and possibly ranging for example up to 200 ° C.
- the first tank is brought to a temperature ranging from
- the oven comprises at least one other tank brought to a temperature below 1150 ° C.
- the oven therefore generally comprises at least two tanks having between them a temperature difference of at least 80 ° C, the first receiving most of the silica and being the warmest.
- the use of a single tank brought to the highest temperature, followed by another tank to a lower temperature makes it possible to efficiently melt the batch materials with a very low final melt rate, or even no.
- the silica grains are mainly melted in the first tank.
- the grains which have not been completely melted in the first tank are melted in at least one other tank which follows.
- the invention enables the use of expensive building materials to be reduced due to the lower temperatures required and / or high production speeds, in particular in the case where at least one tank operates at a temperature below that of the first tank, while providing an absence of baselessness and high productivity.
- the first tank is equipped with means for charging vitrifiable materials.
- the essentials of the silica necessary for the preparation of the final composition are generally introduced into this first tank as well as the flux of the silica.
- This flux is generally Na 2 CO 3 , which transforms into Na 2 O during vitrification.
- the first tank can also be supplied with combustible waste such as plastics, coal, used oils, tire waste, etc., so as to reduce energy costs.
- the raw materials can be ground or micronized and have a fine particle size. However, thanks to its efficiency in fusing vitrifiable materials (low rate of unfathomable), the oven can also be supplied with natural raw materials of relatively coarse particle size.
- vitrifiable materials can be introduced into the first tank.
- the vitrifiable materials other than silica, the silica flux and the fluidizer are introduced into at least one tank located downstream of the first tank, and preferably in the tank located directly after the first tank, c that is to say the second tank.
- the addition of vitrifiable materials other than silica, the flux of the silica and the fluidifier in a tank downstream of the first tank makes it possible to reduce the phenomenon of the flights of these materials.
- the fluidizer is also added in at least one tank located downstream of the first tank, and preferably in the tank located directly after the first tank, that is to say the second tank. This is particularly recommended if the first tank is hotter than the other tank (s).
- the plasticizer is added to the first tank, the viscosity of the glass, already quite low due to the high temperature, is further reduced. This has the consequence of favoring the movements of the molten glass and this aggravates the problem of abrasion of the walls of the first tank all the more.
- the fluidizer is not introduced into the first tank makes it possible to maintain a higher viscosity in the first tank. Furthermore, as the plasticizer is introduced into at least one other tank at a lower temperature than the first tank, it is introduced in a place where the viscosity of the glass is higher due to the lower temperature and the decrease in viscosity than its addition can therefore be more easily tolerated.
- the invention also relates to a process for the continuous preparation of compositions comprising silica by melting in an oven comprising at least two tanks in series, said tanks each comprising at least one burner immersed in the molten materials, silica and flux silica being placed in the first tank, at least 90% of the silica and at least 90% of the silica flux being charged into the first tank, the oven being supplied with a fluidizer of which at least 90% is introduced into the second tank of the oven.
- Vitrifiable materials other than silica, the silica flux and the plasticizer are generally at least one oxide of a metal such as Chromium, Cobalt, Copper, Nickel, Selenium, zirconium, titanium, manganese , praseodymium, iron, zinc. These oxides generally play the role of dye or opacifier.
- the final composition generally comprises 10 to 70% by weight of SiO 2 , for example 40 to 70% by weight of SiO 2 .
- the final composition generally comprises 0.3 to 30% by weight of Na 2 O, for example 20 to 30% by weight of Na 2 O.
- the final composition generally comprises 5 to 30% by weight of B 2 O 3 , for example 5 to 15% of B 2 O 3 ,
- the final composition generally comprises 0.3 to 35% by weight (for example 3 to 20% by weight) of at least one oxide of an element other than Si, Na and B, which is generally at least one of the following metals: Chromium, Cobalt, Copper, Nickel, Selenium, zirconium, titanium, manganese, praseodymium, iron, zinc.
- the. final composition may comprise 40 to 70% by weight of SiO 2 , 20 to 30% by weight of Na 2 O, 5 to 15% by weight of B 2 O, and 3 to 20% by weight of at least one oxide d '' a metal other than Si, Na and B, which is generally at least one of the following metals: Chromium, Cobalt, Copper, Nickel, Selenium, zirconium, titanium, manganese, praseodymium, iron, zinc.
- the final composition may contain oxides of the same metal under several different degrees of oxidation. This is particularly the case for frits containing a Cr 2 ⁇ 3 / CrO 3 mixture or a CuO / Cu 2 0 mixture.
- the adjustment of the mass ratio of oxides with different oxidation degrees within the same composition makes it possible to influence the coloring of the final frit.
- the invention allows such an adjustment by playing on the more or less oxidizing nature of the flame of the submerged burners, and more particularly of the submerged burners of the last tank of the oven according to the invention. We influence the character more or less oxidant of a flame by adjusting the proportion of the oxidant of the flame (air or oxygen) relative to that of the fuel.
- the oven according to the invention comprises at least two tanks and preferably comprises three tanks.
- the first tank can be brought to a temperature ranging from 1230 to 1350 ° C and the second tank to a temperature ranging from 900 to 1150 ° C.
- the oxidation degree of certain oxides (such as those of Cu or Cr) is adjusted in the second tank.
- the oven comprises three tanks, in particular when it makes a glass frit, the first tank can be brought to a temperature ranging from 1230 to 1350 ° C, the second can be brought to a temperature ranging from 1000 ° C to 1150 ° C and the third at a temperature ranging from 900 ° C to 1000 ° C.
- the adjustment of the degree of oxidation of certain oxides (such as those of Cu or Cr) is carried out in this third tank. In the case of a three-tank oven, no material is generally placed in the third tank.
- the furnace according to the invention comprises at least two tanks in series, or even three tanks in series, two of the tanks each comprising separate charging means, the first at least for charging the silica and the flux silica, the second for charging other materials such as the plasticizer and / or at least one metal oxide.
- the oven comprises at least three tanks in series, the second being brought to a temperature ranging from 1000 ° C to 1150 ° C and the third to a temperature ranging from 900 ° C to 1000 ° C, at least one metal oxide being introduced into the second tank of the oven, the oxide having several degrees of oxidation, and the submerged burner (s) of the third tank having a sufficiently oxidizing flame so that the degree of oxidation of the oxide increases from the second to the third tank.
- the different tanks of the oven can for example each have a useful volume (that is to say equal to the volume of glass contained) ranging from 100 to 500 liters.
- the first tank can have a useful volume ranging from 250 to 350 I, the second a useful volume ranging from 150 to 250 I and the third a useful volume ranging from 100 to 200 liters.
- the useful volume occupied by the glass it is recommended to provide a free volume important for each tank, for example ranging from 0.3 to 1 times the useful volume of said tank.
- the glass flows from the first tank to the last by gravity.
- the different tanks in series communicate through grooves or overflows.
- the tanks can have any suitable shape, be of square, rectangular, polygonal or even circular section.
- the cylindrical shape (circular section, the axis of the cylinder being vertical) is preferred because it has the advantage that the glass is more efficiently homogenized (less dead volumes with little brewing).
- This cylindrical shape also has the advantage of being able to use unshaped refractories for making up the lining of the walls, such as the use of refractory concrete with a hydraulic binder.
- the tanks can be cooled by running water on their external surface or by a continuous water circulation tube wound and welded on said sheet.
- the melt can be brought to a channel conventionally heated by radiation to improve the refining or a refining basin.
- the glass is spread over a shallow depth, for example ranging from 3 mm to 1 cm and heated so as to be effectively degassed.
- This refining step is generally carried out between 1050 and 1200 ° C.
- the glass is then brought to a forming station such as a rolling (case of the production of frit).
- a rolling known in itself, is usually carried out between 800 and 950 ° C and leads to the formation of frit squares.
- the invention also relates to a device for preparing glass compositions comprising an oven according to the invention followed by a refining channel or basin.
- the materials placed in the oven can be loaded using worms.
- the invention allows in particular the production of the following coloring frit compositions:
- Frit called “Cobalt” used to give a blue coloring 25% Na 2 O, 10% B 2 O 3 , 5% CoO 60% Si0 2 ; 3. “Copper” frit (CuO / Cu 2 O mixture) used to give a blue coloring:
- the frites usually called “nickel” or “selenium” can also be produced in the context of the invention.
- the invention also allows the production of tiling frits, for example that of the following composition: 1% Na 2 O, 9% B 2 O 3l 8% AI 2 O 3) 6% CaO, 3% MgO,
- the invention also allows the production of a zinc glass frit, for example the following:
- the invention also allows the production of a glass frit, for example the following:
- the invention allows the direct production of an enamel, for example that having the following composition: 7.7% B 2 O 3 , 45.5% Bi 2 0 3 , 12.2% Si0 2 , 1, 8% Na 2 O, 2.8% AI 2 O 3 and 30% MnO 2 .
- FIG. 1 represents an oven with three tanks (1, 2,3) according to the invention. These tanks are fitted with submerged burners 4, the gases of which make the mass of glass frothy.
- the level of the glass is represented by 5.
- the silica and the silica flux are placed in the first tank at 6.
- the thinning agent and the coloring oxides are placed in the second tank at 7.
- the glass passes from the first tank to the second tank by the groove 8 and from the second tank to the third by the weir 9.
- the second tank is equipped with a chimney 10 for the evacuation of the fumes.
- the glass leaves the third tank to undergo a refining step in the basin 13.
- This basin is indirectly heated from the burners 14 through a refractory stone 15. Such an arrangement also contributes to the reduction of takeoffs.
- the fumes from the burners 14 escape through the opening 12.
- the final frit composition is then removed at 16 to go to the rolling station, not shown.
- the first tank can be brought to 1250 ° C, the second to 1100 ° C and the third to 1000 ° C.
- the third is mainly used to adjust the degree of oxidation of chromium oxide which is influenced by the more or less oxidizing nature of the flame of the third tank.
