<p>OF THE DISLCOSURE The present invention provides a process for the after-treatment of powdery carbon black with an oxidation agent which is gaseous, vaporous or aerosol-like in order to convert carbon black with a non-polar surface into carbon black which has a polar surface and thereby to improve the compatibility of carbon black with polar binders for lacquers and printing inks, comprising introducing the powdery carbon black into a reaction zone, said reaction zone having an upper and a lower portion, introducing into the lower reaction zone an oxidation agent whereby said oxidation agent flows from the lowest part of the reaction zone up through the carbon black in said reaction zone, continuously agitating said carbon black in said reaction zone, said reaction zone being a vertical, cylindrical reactor, containing a shaft in the central axis of said reactor, said shaft being equipped with stirrer arms brushing the entire cylinder cross section in a substantially horizontal position, said arms being displaced in the manner of tiers over the height of the reactor and rotating with a speed such that the stirrer arm points move between 0.2 and 2.0 m/sec, whereby the volume of the oxidation agent stream is dimensioned so that the reaction temperature in the reactor remains below about 150.degree.C, after the carbon black reaches the desired degree of oxidation, removing the surplus of oxidation agent by flushing air while maintaining the above-mentioned stirring movement and recovering the treated carbon black product in a powdery form without compression or agglomeration of the carbon black.</p> |
