Manufacturing method of phenolic resin for abrasives
I. INTRODUCTION
Phenolic resin is a kind of polymer compound widely used in the field of raw materials for the production of chemicals, with excellent heat resistance, acid resistance, alkali resistance, electrical insulation and mechanical properties. In the field of abrasives, phenolic resin is used as a binder to improve the hardness, wear resistance and service life of abrasives. In this paper, the manufacturing method of phenolic resin for abrasives will be introduced in detail.
2. Raw materials and equipment
1. Raw materials: the main raw materials of phenolic resin include phenol, formaldehyde, acid catalyst, etc..
2. Equipment: reactor, stirrer, thermometer, pH meter, condenser and so on.
3. Manufacturing method
1. Dosing: according to the predetermined formula, add the raw materials such as phenol, formaldehyde and acid catalyst into the reactor in proportion.
2. Stirring and heating: Turn on the stirrer to mix the raw materials fully. At the same time, heat the reactor to make the reaction system reach the predetermined temperature.
3. Reaction: Under the action of acid catalyst, phenol and formaldehyde undergo polycondensation reaction to produce phenolic resin.
4. Adjustment of pH: During the reaction process, the pH of the reaction system is adjusted with an alkaline absorbent to control the speed of the reaction and the molecular weight of the phenolic resin.
5. Cooling and discharging: When the reaction reaches a predetermined time or the phenolic resin reaches a predetermined viscosity, stop heating and cool the reactor. Then, discharge the phenolic resin.
4. Precautions
1. Strictly control the quality of raw materials to ensure the purity of phenol and formaldehyde, in order to avoid adverse effects on the performance of phenolic resin.
2. During the reaction process, pay close attention to the temperature, pH and viscosity of the reaction system and other parameters to ensure the smooth progress of the reaction.
3. After discharging, the phenolic resin should be quality checked to ensure that its performance meets the requirements of abrasives.
