Ob im Leben oder in vielen Bereichen, Es wird immer viele Namen geben, die nicht gleich sind, aber die Form ist ähnlich, the use of the same items, like we want to bring you to understand the Quartz powder, White Carbon Black and nano silica, although their appearance is similar, but they can not be directly equal, here HSA will talk to you about the relationship and difference between Quartz powder, White Carbon Black and nano silica are What are the differences?
Basic concepts
Quartz powder
Quartz powder is a micronized powder made of natural quartz (SiO2) or fused quartz (amorphous SiO2 after natural quartz has been fused and cooled at high temperature) through multiple processes such as crushing, ball milling (or vibrating, airflow grinding), flotation, saure Reinigung, and high purity water treatment.
Weißer Ruß
White Carbon Black is the collective name of amorphous silicic acid and silicate products, similar to carbon black in the rubber industry, is called silica, the molecular formula is SiO2-nH2O, where nH2O is in the form of surface hydroxyl groups, the appearance is generally white, is an amorphous granular solid without odor and toxicity.
Nano silica
Nano silica refers to the particle size in the nanometer scale (less than 100nm) of ultra-fine silica particles. It is an amorphous, Weiss, geruchlos, non-toxic powder-like substance, a nano-material with adsorption of water-based hydroxyl groups on the surface.
Whether it is Quartz powder, White Carbon Black or nano silica, the main component of these 3 is SiO2. The difference is that silica, in addition to precipitated silica, fumed silica and ultrafine silica gel, also includes powdered aluminum silicate and calcium silicate, etc. In most cases, its composition can be expressed as SiO2-nH2O, where nH2O is in the form of surface hydroxyl groups which exists in the form of surface hydroxyl groups.
Chemical substance structure
Quartz powder
Silicon dioxide has two forms: crystalline and amorphous non-crystalline. From the concept of Quartz powder, it is a generic term for Quartz powder, so Quartz powder contains both crystalline and non-crystalline states, and it is a three-dimensional mesh structure formed by the basic structure of silica-oxygen tetrahedra.
Weißer Ruß
White Carbon Black is amorphous amorphous silica particles with a certain branching structure. It also has a spatial tetrahedral mesh structure composed of silicon and oxygen, with oxygen located above the apex of the tetrahedron and silicon located at the center of the tetrahedron. The characteristic of this structure lies in the fact that the oxygen on the apex and the apex on each of the other faces co-point, making SiO2 electrically neutral.
The surface of silica has three different types of hydroxyl groups:
- One hydroxyl group is the silicon-oxygen group that exists on the surface of silica that has been dehydrated, and the increase in temperature is not easy to remove the silicon-oxygen group;
- Another hydroxyl group because it contains positively charged H atoms, so it is particularly easy to hydrogen bond with atoms that have negative charge, and is called the isolated hydroxyl group;
- There is another type of hydroxyl group that has a strong adsorption effect on polar substances and can be hydrogen bonded to each other The neighboring hydroxyl groups that are bonded to each other.
Nano silica
Nano silica is an amorphous white powder with a flocculent and reticulate quasi-particle state. Its microstructure is nearly spherical, and there are unsaturated residual bonds and hydroxyl groups with different bonding states on the surface of the particles, and its molecular state is a three-dimensional chain structure.
Physical and chemical properties
Quartz powder
(1) Gute Isoliereigenschaft: Due to the high purity of Quartz powder, geringer Gehalt an Verunreinigungen, stable performance and excellent electrical insulation property, Die ausgehärteten Produkte haben eine gute Isoliereigenschaft und eine Anti-Lichtbogen-Eigenschaft.
(2) Es kann die exotherme Spitzentemperatur der Epoxidharz-Härtungsreaktion reduzieren, reduce the linear expansion coefficient and shrinkage rate of cured products, thus eliminating the internal stress of cured products and preventing cracking.
(3) Anti-corrosion: Quartz powder is not easy to react with other substances and does not react chemically with most acids and alkalis, und seine Partikel bedecken gleichmäßig die Oberfläche des Objekts, which has strong anti-corrosion ability.
(4) The particle gradation is reasonable, which can reduce and eliminate the phenomenon of precipitation and delamination when used; it can enhance the tensile and compressive strength of the cured material, die Verschleißfestigkeit verbessern, and increase the thermal conductivity of the cured material and increase the flame retardant performance.
(5) Quartz powder treated with silane coupling agent has good wettability to various types of resins, gute Adsorptionsleistung, leicht zu mischen, kein Agglomerationsphänomen.
(6) Quartz powder as filler, added to organic resin, verbessert nicht nur die Leistung der ausgehärteten Produkte, sondern reduziert auch die Kosten des Produkts.
Weißer Ruß
White Carbon Black is a porous material, chemically stable, non-combustible, high temperature resistant, tasteless, geruchlos, good electrical insulation, its aggregate form and microstructure is similar to carbon black. White Carbon Black has a wide range of uses, and can be used as reinforcing agent for rubber products, dispersant, carrier, etc.
Nano silica
nano silica is a non-toxic, tasteless, non-polluting white inorganic non-metallic material with small particle size (0-100nm). Its large specific surface area, ultraviolet, infrared, visible light has a strong reflective properties, the volume effect and quantum tunneling effect of nano silica to produce its permeability, and organic molecular compounds to form a spatial network structure, thereby greatly improving the mechanical strength of polymer materials, Zähigkeit, wear resistance and aging resistance, etc.
