Blending, solids

Operations such as blending, solids-suspension, dissolving, heat transfer and liquid-liquid extraction are typical of systems requiring high flow relative to turbulence, while gas-liquid reactions and some liquid-liquid contacting require high turbulence relative to flow. The case of (1) 100% of suspension—requires head to keep particles suspended and (2) 100% uniformity of distribution of particles—requires head for suspension plus flow for dis-tiibution. 

This low Na-P04 ratio was a result of using an incorrectly blended solid phosphate mixture. The constituent proportions had been calculated based on utilizing trisodium phosphate monohydrate (Na PO HjO),... 

Interesting attempts have been made to formulate water-setting cements by blending solid acid phosphates with the zinc oxide powder. The cement is then prepared by mixing this powder blend with water. These attempts may be considered to have failed. 

A more successful approach was that of Higashi et al. (1969a,b 1972). They blended solid add phosphate salts with zinc oxide powder. One add salt used was a predpitated hydrate of ZnH2P04. The cement was formed by mixing this powder blend with water. Work progressed to the point where three commercial brands of these so-called hydrophosphate cements appeared on the market. None met the spedfication requirements...

For polyurethane production, Donnelly [109] has carried out the synthesis of copolyurethanes based on mixtures of commercial poly(THF diol)s with glucose. Complex products resulted, which can be represented by mono- or bis(glucoside) structures. From a variety of polyol blends, solid polyurethanes were prepared which ranged from linear, soluble, weak elastomers to polymers of higher transition temperature and stiffness, low solubility, and low extension under tensile load [110].

Canned products. Blend solid and liquid contents of a can in a blender until homogeneous or pass several times through a meat chopper. For large cans, drain the meat, collect the liquid, determine the weight of the meat and volume of liquid, recombine each in proportionate amounts and blend until homogeneous. 

Besides emulsifying properties, another useful characteristic of solid fats are their malleable melting points profiles. Fat crystals have the structure-forming properties that allow the formation of a matrix for suspension of dmg particles. When used simply as carriers, some lipids can provide a matrix that can keep the bioactive components uniformly distributed and released in a timely manner. The properties of the crystals such as melting time can be manipulated by blending solid fats with different ratios of liquid oils (50).

These three approaches have found widespread application to a large variety of systems and equilibria types ranging from vapor-liquid equilibria for binary and multicomponent polymer solutions, blends, and copolymers, liquid-liquid equilibria for polymer solutions and blends, solid-liquid-liquid equilibria, and solubility of gases in polymers, to mention only a few. In some cases, the results are purely predictive in others interaction parameters are required and the models are capable of correlating (describing) the experimental information. In Section 16.7, we attempt to summarize and comparatively discuss the performance of these three approaches. We attempt there, for reasons of completion, to discuss the performance of a few other (mostly) predictive models such as the group-contribution lattice fluid and the group-contribution Flory equations of state, which are not extensively discussed separately. 

Many of the machines described in the last section can blend solids when they are dry and free flowing as well as when they are damp, pasty, rubbery, or plastic. Mullers, pan mixers, and pugmills are examples. Such versatile machines are needed when the properties of the material change markedly during the mixing operation. In general, however, these devices are less effective on dry powders than on other materials and are heavier and more powerful than necessary for free-flowing particulate solids. 

If these methods are each as powerful as we have seen on their own, how much more effective they must be together We shall finish this chapter with the identification of some simple unknown compounds using all three methods. The first is an industrial emulsifier used to blend solids and liquids into smooth pastes. Its elecrospray mass spectrum shows it has M -i- H with a mass of 90, so an odd molecular weight (89) suggests one nitrogen atom. High-resolution mass spectrometry reveals that the formula is C4H11NO.

Solid markers denote the salt-free polymer components—(A) PEO, ( ) ENR, and ( ) PAc. The salt-added components are represented by the open markers—(0, o) PEO and ENR added with 12 wt% LiClO, (A, ) PEO and PAc added with 15 wt% LiC10 . The doubled headed arrow shows the difference in T values between each salt-free and salt-added polymer component for the two blends.
