How to store barite
Application of barium sulfate in powder coatings There are two kinds of barium sulfate used as paint extender pigments, natural and synthetic. The natural product is called barite powder, and the synthetic product is called precipitated barium sulfate. In terms of powder coatings, precipitated barium sulfate can enhance the leveling and gloss retention of powder coatings, and has good compatibility with all colorants. The powder coating can achieve the ideal film thickness in the spraying process, and the powder coating rate is high.
During the construction of precipitated barium sulfate, there are many things that need to be paid attention to. The precipitated barium sulfate is a powder shape and has a wide range of use. Questions about public hazards such as poisoning, no fire, and no "three wastes" discharge are completely in line with the requirements of the national environmental protection law. The application of precipitated barium sulfate in fillers enables precipitated barium sulfate to replace part of titanium because it has a barrier effect between titanium particles, so that titanium dioxide particles are spaced from each other, and then the use efficiency of titanium is improved. The condition is that the barium sulfate must be fine and the particle size is appropriate to that of titanium dioxide. As we all know, the medium particle size of titanium dioxide is about microns, so the particle size of precipitated barium sulfate should also be appropriate, generally less than 1 micron, so the quality of barium sulfate must be good. imported, such as Germany's Blancfixemicro superfine barium sulfate, the medium particle size is micron
Particle size, although this index value is not an index value that immediately endangers the quality of barium sulfate, it can be regarded as a decision-making factor for the value of barium sulfate. Generally speaking, the finer the precipitated barium sulfate, the greater the difficulty in production and processing, and the greater its use value. High, from ordinary barium to silicon oxide, the price is very different. Silica-precipitated barium sulfate is generally used in some manufacturing industries, such as plastic printing inks, architectural coatings, etc. The disadvantage of barium sulfate is that it is easy to cause precipitation and agglomeration due to its high density. Barium sulfate is an odorless, colorless orthorhombic crystal or white amorphous powder.
Barite has certain harm to the environment we live in, and it can also cause some pollution to the atmosphere. Although it cannot be ignited, it still has certain harm when it comes into contact with our human body. Barite is still a very export-friendly product in China. my country's barite resources rank first in the world, which shows that it is very rich. So many manufacturers do not know how to store the barite after purchasing it so that they can keep the barite well. Today I will talk about this issue. How should barite be stored?
The storage must be placed in a relatively cool and ventilated place. It is best to set up a separate warehouse and place it separately from other combustibles, heat sources and reducing agents to avoid confusion. A special material storage box should also be set up.
How should barite be stored? Operators should go through training to work part-time, wear self-priming filter dust-proof bed covers during work, and should prevent the occurrence of barite dust and contact with the rejuvenating agent, equip leakage strain solutions, and use up empty bottles. There is no littering, and there can be leftovers. When barite is operated, attention should be paid to airtight operation and all ventilation.
If the skin accidentally comes into contact with barite, it must be treated. We will not explain the relevant treatment methods in detail.
