The carbon black material used as reinforcing filler in tires was recovered by vacuum pyrolysis at a temperature of 500°C and a total pressure of 20 kPa. The pyrolytic carbon black obtained (CBp) was contamined by various additives of the original tire. Contaminants were also produced by chemical reactions occurring in the pyrolysis reactor. The contamination is reflected by the high content of ash and gritty materials (coke) present in the CBp. A characterization of the recovered carbon black was performed and a possible reduction of the ash content by sulfuric acid and sodium hydroxide treatment was investigated. The variables which were studied included the ratio of reactant to carbon black, the reactant concentration, the treatment temperature and the reaction time. Properties of the commercial carbon black filler grade N539 were compared to those of the CBp recovered before and after the demineralization treatment. 相似文献
Summary: Pyrolytic carbon black (CBp) has been prepared by rubber crumb pyrolysis under nitrogen flow at 700 °C. The CBp obtained by this process had an average surface area of 81 m2 · g?1 and was obtained in 43% yield over the starting rubber crumb. Although the CBp surface area can be increased up to 109 m2 · g?1 by washing away the Zn‐ and Si‐based ashes with HF treatment, the CBp was tested in a standard NR/SBR‐based formulation without any purification and ash extraction. CBp was tested at increasing loading levels as partial or full replacement of a standard N339 furnace carbon black. CBp depresses the physical properties of the rubber compound in a way which is directly proportional to the amount added. The reason of this result and the limited reinforcing effect is discussed in terms of low surface area and low structure in comparison to N339 carbon black as well as in terms of low surface activity, the interference of the ashes and the poor dispersion. Ideas of further development works are outlined.
The surface morphology and chemistry of CBp obtained by pyrolysis of waste tyres at 500 and 700 °C, respectively was studied compared with a commercial tyre carbon blacks by laser particle size analyzer, X-ray diffractogram (XRD) and electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA). The distribution of CBp aggregates was the mixed particle distribution of commercial carbon blacks added to tyres in fabrication. The concentration of inorganic compounds and carbonaceous deposits (the organic compounds deposited on the surface of the CBp) depends on the pyrolysis temperature. The chemical nature of the CBp from pyrolysis at 700 °C was found to be closer to the commercial tyre carbon blacks than the CBp from pyrolysis at 500 °C. 相似文献
Safe building structures cannot be achieved without reliable waterproofing engineering. To address the susceptibility of concrete materials to water leakage, a low-viscosity stearic acid emulsion has been developed as a waterproofing agent for mortar. By introducing lauric acid, the formation of stearic acid crystals in water could be effectively prevented, resulting in a stearic acid emulsion with a viscosity of only 24 mPa·s. It is found that the best overall performance was achieved when the ratio (R) of lauric acid to stearic acid was 2/3. This emulsion has the least effect on mortar fluidity and setting time. The as-prepared modified mortar possessed the highest compressive strength (127% of the blank) and the lowest water absorption at 48 h (37% of the blank). X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS) particle size analysis, and water contact angle measurements were used to investigate the mechanism of stearic acid emulsion's modification. It is determined that the stearic acid emulsions successfully modified the internal and external hydrophobicity of the mortar by chemical action with calcium hydroxide. 相似文献
