METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR MIXING CHEMICAL COMPONENTS FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF POLYURETHANE |
摘要 |
Embodiments of the invention describe methods and apparatus for mixing chemical components in the manufacture of polyurethane foam. The chemical components include a polyol and different blowing agents. The blowing agents are injected directly into a mixing chamber (100) at different height levels according to their boiling points. The mixing chamber allows continuous discharge of the mixture into a static mixer (400) for further mixing before being stored into a storage tank (600). The blowing agents are chemical compounds selected from the group consisting of hydrocarbon-containing compounds, hydrofluorocarbon-containing compounds or hydrofluoroolefin-containing compounds. |

1. A mixing apparatus for the manufacture of polyurethane foam, the mixing apparatus comprising:
a mixing chamber including
a first nozzle to allow a polyol having a boiling point of around 200 to 250 degrees Celsius to be injected into the mixing chamber;a second nozzle positioned at a lower height level than the first nozzle to allow a first blowing agent to be injected into the mixing chamber, wherein the first blowing agent is a hydrocarbon-containing compound having a boiling point of around 40 to 60 degrees Celsius;a third nozzle positioned at a lower height level than the second nozzle to allow a second blowing agent to be injected into the mixing chamber, wherein the second blowing agent is a hydrofluorocarbon-containing compound having a boiling point of around 20 to 40 degrees Celsius;a fourth nozzle positioned at a lower height level than the third nozzle to allow a third blowing agent to be injected into the mixing chamber, wherein the third blowing agent is a hydrofluorocarbon-containing compound having a boiling point of around 0 to 20 degrees Celsius;a fifth nozzle positioned at a lower height level than the fourth nozzle to allow a fourth blowing agent to be injected into the mixing chamber; wherein the fourth blowing agent is a hydrocarbon-containing compound, hydrofluorocarbon-containing compound or hydrofluoroolefin-containing compound having a boiling point of around −30 to 0 degrees Celsius; and an outlet at the top of the mixing chamber, wherein the injected polyol and the first, the second, the third, and the fourth blowing agents react to form a mixture that is discharged through the outlet. |
