Resumo–Este artigo discute a descoberta de litopônio fosforescente em desenhos de aquarela do artista americano John La Farge datados de entre 1890 e 1905 e a história do litopônio na indústria de pigmento no final do século XIX e início do século XX. Apesar de ter muitas qualidades desejáveis para o uso em aquarela branca ou tintas a óleo, o desenvolvimento do litopônio como um pigmento de artistas foi prejudicado por sua tendência a se escurecer na luz solar. Sua disponibilidade para e uso por parte de artistas ainda não está clara, uma vez que os catálogos comerciais dos vendedores de tintas geralmente não eram explícitos na descrição de pigmentos brancos como algo que contém litopônio. Além disso, o litopônio pode ser confundido com o branco de chumbo durante o exame visual e sua fosforescência de curta duração pode ser facilmente perdida pelo observador desinformado. O litopônio fosforescente foi documentado em apenas um outro trabalho até hoje: uma aquarela de Van Gogh. Além da história da manufatura do litopônio, o artigo detalha o mecanismo para a sua fosforescência e sua identificação auxiliada pela espectroscopia de Raman e espectrofluorimetria.

Pure PVB is non-toxic and harmless to human body. In addition, ethyl acetate or alcohol can be used as solvent, so PVB is widely used in printing ink of food containers and plastic packaging in European and American countries.

Storage safety properties

PVB can be stored for two years without affecting its quality as long as it is not in direct contact with water; PVB shall be stored in a dry and cool place and avoid direct sunlight. Heavy pressure shall be avoided during PVB storage.

Solubility

PVB is soluble in alcohol, ketone, ester and other solvents. The solubility of various solvents changes according to the functional group composition of PVB itself. Generally speaking, alcohol solvents are soluble, but methanol is more insoluble for those with high acetal groups; The higher the acetal group, the easier it is to dissolve in ketone solvents and ester solvents;

PVB is easily soluble in cellosolve solvents; PVB is only partially dissolved in aromatic solvents such as xylene and toluene; PVB is insoluble in hydrocarbon solvents.

Viscosity characteristics of PVB solution

The viscosity of PVB solution is greatly affected by the formula of solvent and the type of solvent; Generally speaking, if alcohol is used as solvent, the higher the molecular weight of alcohol, the higher the viscosity of PVB solution;

Aromatic solvents such as xylene and toluene and hydrocarbon solvents can be used as diluents to reduce the viscosity of PVB solution; The effect of PVB chemical composition on viscosity is summarized as follows: under the same solvent and the same content of each base, the higher the degree of polymerization, the higher the solution viscosity; Under the same solvent and the same degree of polymerization, the higher the acetal group or acetate group, the lower the solution viscosity.

Dissolution method of PVB

Where mixed solvents are used, the dissolution step is to first put aromatic solvents (such as xylene, toluene, etc.) or ester solvents (such as n-butyl acetate, ethyl acetate, etc.) into the mixing, slowly put PVB into the mixing, and then add alcohol solvents (such as n-butanol, ethanol, etc.) after PVB is dispersed and expanded,

At this time, the dissolution time can be shortened by heating; Using this dissolution method, the formation of lumpy PVB can be avoided (because the dissolution time will be several times after the formation of lumpy PVB), so the dissolution speed can be accelerated. Generally, the ratio of aromatic and alcohol solvents is 60 / 40 ~ 40 / 60 (weight ratio), and PVB solution with low viscosity can be prepared.

The solvent composition contains 2 ~ 3wt% water, which can improve the hydrogen bonding strength of alcohol solvents and help the solubility of PVB.

Processing properties

Although PVB resin is a thermoplastic, it has little processability before plasticizer is added. Once plasticizer is added, its processability is very easy.

The purpose of general coatings and adhesives is to change the resin characteristics by adding plasticizers to meet the application requirements, such as film softness, reducing the TG point of the resin, reducing the heat sealing temperature, maintaining low-temperature softness, etc.

Compatibility

PVB can be compatible with a variety of resins, such as phenolic resin, epoxy resin, alkyd resin and 
MELAMINE resin.

B-08sy, b-06sy and b-05sy with high acetal degree can be mixed with nitrocellulose in any proportion. PVB and alkyd resin are partially compatible. General PVB is compatible with low molecular weight epoxy resin, while high molecular weight epoxy resin needs PVB with high acetal degree to be compatible with each other.

In the world of manufacturing, the combination of talc and titanium dioxide is a match made in heaven. These two minerals, when used together, can significantly enhance the performance and quality of various products. Talc, known for its softness and lubricating properties, provides excellent slip resistance and reduces friction, making it an ideal additive for plastics, rubber, and coatings. Titanium dioxide, on the other hand, is a powerful pigment that imparts strength, durability, and UV protection to products.

  • Spark plugs, typically made from materials like copper, iridium, or platinum, are designed to withstand extreme temperatures and pressures inside the engine. They have a central electrode and a side electrode separated by a small gap. The high voltage electricity from the ignition system jumps this gap, creating a spark that ignites the compressed fuel-air mixture, generating the power needed for the vehicle's movement.

  • When installing the oil seal 29x44x7, it is important to ensure proper alignment and fit to prevent any gaps or misalignment that may compromise the sealing performance. Regular inspection and maintenance of the seal are also essential to detect any signs of wear or damage and replace the seal if necessary. Proper lubrication of the seal is also crucial to ensure smooth operation and prevent overheating.
