2: Clarification mechanism of coagulant

Chemical coagulation is a process in which chemical agents (coagulants) are added to water treatment to make colloidal dispersion system destabilize and agglomerate. In the coagulation process, small suspended particles and colloidal impurities are aggregated into larger solid particles to separate particulate impurities from water, which is called coagulation clarification.

After adding coagulant into water, colloidal particles and other small particles can be polymerized into larger flocs through the comprehensive action of mixing, coagulation and flocculation. The whole process of coagulation and flocculation is called coagulation.

(1) Destabilization and condensation of colloids

Adding electrolyte to water can compress the electric double layer and destabilize the colloid. The main mechanism is that the electric double layer of colloidal particles in water is compressed or neutralized by adding aluminum salt or iron salt coagulant. The coagulant and raw water are mixed rapidly and evenly, and a series of chemical reactions are produced to destabilize. This process takes a short time, generally about 1 min. Some cationic polymers can also play a role in the destabilization and condensation of colloids in water. These polymers have a long chain structure and positive charge in water. Their destabilization and condensation of colloids in water is due to the interaction of van der Waals force adsorption and electrostatic attraction.

(2) Flocculation and formation of floc (alum)

The particle size of the initial flocculate formed by colloid destabilization and coagulation in water is generally more than 1 m. at this time, Brownian motion can no longer push them to collide and form larger particles. In order to make the initial flocs collide with each other to form large flocs, it is necessary to input additional energy into the water to produce a velocity gradient. Sometimes it is necessary to add organic polymer flocculant into water, and the adsorption bridging effect of long chain molecules of flocculant is used to improve the probability of collision and adhesion. Flocculation efficiency usually increases with the increase of flocculate concentration and flocculation time.

Compared with polyaluminum chloride, polyaluminum chloride has the advantages of high density, fast settling speed and wide pH adaptability; the coagulation effect is less affected by temperature than that of polyaluminum sulfate; however, when adding ferric salt, it should be noted that when the equipment is not in normal operation, the iron ions will make the effluent color, and may pollute the subsequent desalination equipment.

The functions of lithopone in coatings: it is mainly used in water-soluble coatings (water-soluble coatings, wall coatings), blending paint as topcoat (with reasonable high paint adhesion, excellent circulation and long storage capacity), all kinds of methyl cellulose paint (can be applied to wooden furniture such as furniture and small toys) Alkali resistant coatings based on isopropyl titanate vulcanized rubber and polyurethane materials. Also because of its excellent paint adhesion, aging resistance, acid resistance and leveling, for the production of lacquered cloth color pigments look better. It can also be used in electrophoretic coating and optical guiding system software.

Moreover, the use of talc and titanium dioxide in the manufacturing of rubber products is also highly beneficial. These minerals can improve the tear strength, abrasion resistance, and flexibility of rubber materials These minerals can improve the tear strength, abrasion resistance, and flexibility of rubber materials These minerals can improve the tear strength, abrasion resistance, and flexibility of rubber materials These minerals can improve the tear strength, abrasion resistance, and flexibility of rubber materialstalc titanium dioxide manufacturer. This is because talc provides reinforcement, while titanium dioxide enhances the cross-linking density of the rubber molecules, making them more resistant to deformation under stress.
