Description

Manufacture apparatus for high moisture ball-type absorbent

The present invention relates to a device for manufacturing a superabsorbent solid formulation desiccant, and more particularly, to a device for manufacturing a superabsorbent solid formulation desiccant that can efficiently manufacture a desiccant that is not deformed by temperature or pressure, has a relatively small specific gravity but excellent hygroscopicity, and can be applied to various devices or products for moisture absorption.

When formulating a substance, the typical manufacturing process for solid dosage forms, particularly tablets, is batch-based and involves multiple steps. Typically, the ingredients for the formulation are first placed in a suitable container, then mixed with a solvent to obtain a kneadable paste. The paste is then granulated, the granules are dried, and the resulting mixture is shaped, for example, by compressing the granules into tablets, to obtain the desired dosage form.

Additionally, water absorption is a problem during the manufacturing or storage of the formulation. When water absorption occurs during manufacturing, it can result in process problems such as stickiness, clumping, poor release from the mold, poor flow characteristics, chemical instability, and various product analyses. When water absorption occurs during storage, it can result in chemical instability of the active ingredient, changes in decomposition characteristics, changes in crystal form, and changes in appearance.

Meanwhile, dehumidifiers are substances that can absorb moisture in the air and lower the surrounding humidity, and are widely used in places where moisture needs to be removed or to protect specific products from moisture.

Various types of materials are used as desiccant agents, and among them, silica gel is the most representative desiccant agent. Recently, desiccant agents using activated alumina (AL2O3), diatomaceous earth, and zeolite have been developed and are being used together.

This type of desiccant has a porous microstructure that absorbs moisture through capillary action. It has the advantage of rapid initial moisture absorption, but has the disadvantage of being difficult to absorb any more moisture once most of the microstructure is filled with moisture.

In particular, silica gel, which is widely used as a desiccant, is produced by treating sodium silicate (Na2SiO3) with strong acid, so the manufacturing process is not environmentally friendly and there is a problem that it causes environmental pollution because it does not decompose when discarded after use.

In addition, silica gel has a moisture absorption capacity of 25 to 35% (based on Type A) and has strong initial moisture absorption, reaching saturation within approximately 48 hours at an average temperature of 25 to 30℃ and a relative humidity of 90%. However, because the moisture absorption capacity does not last for a long time, it has the disadvantage of being less useful in sea and air transport that requires long-term moisture absorption. For example, during sea transport, the inside of a cargo container near the equator becomes about 65℃ and a relative humidity of 90%, and in this case, silica gel becomes saturated within 20 hours and loses its humidity control ability.

In contrast, when using a desiccant inorganic substance like calcium chloride as a desiccant, it absorbs and dissolves moisture, achieving absorption rates several times its own weight. In addition to the widely used calcium chloride, other desiccant inorganic substances include magnesium chloride, calcium sulfate, magnesium sulfate, and sodium hydroxide.

For example, calcium chloride can absorb 200 to 250% of moisture at an average temperature of 25 to 30°C and a relative humidity of 70%. As the relative humidity increases, the amount of moisture absorbed gradually increases as the partial pressure of the calcium chloride solution equilibrates with the external atmospheric pressure. Therefore, for maritime and air transport that requires long-term moisture absorption, the use of a deliquescent inorganic substance such as calcium chloride is effective.

However, there is a disadvantage in that it is not easy to use volatile inorganic substances as desiccant in cases such as food drying, cultural heritage preservation, and small sealed packaging, as the product may be contaminated when water is generated.

For example, as the automobile industry develops, problems with condensation in headlights, rear lights, and fog lights during automobile transportation and storage continue to arise, resulting in increasing industrial losses.

When a car's lamps are exposed to a large temperature difference between the interior and exterior of the component in a humid environment, such as during rainy weather, the lamp lens temperature drops, causing moisture inside the lamp to condense, forming tiny water droplets on the inner surface of the lens, resulting in fogging. The resulting light scattering poses a significant obstacle to safe driving.

To address these issues, the automotive industry has typically incorporated anti-fog coatings and bentonite-based desiccant agents into lamp housings. However, anti-fog coatings can deteriorate, causing whitening and flow, due to outdoor UV rays, temperature, and humidity. This necessitates the replacement of the entire automotive lamp module.

In addition, general bentonite-based desiccant absorbs a certain amount of moisture and then releases the moisture again in a high-temperature, low-humidity environment when the lamp is in operation, which causes condensation on the inner surface of the lamp lens.

The aforementioned problems associated with the use of conventional anti-fog coatings and bentonite-based desiccants result in replacement costs for automotive lamp modules and deterioration of functional and consumer quality. Therefore, to address condensation issues with existing desiccants, a new desiccant capable of minimizing moisture release or absorbing moisture even in high-temperature, low-humidity driving environments is needed.

In particular, in the case of powdered desiccants, there are problems such as powder flying around, and after absorbing moisture, the absorbed liquid flows out, which is fatal to electrical devices or mechanical devices within the container, and there are problems such as deformation and damage to the frame and container due to heat generated by the reaction during moisture absorption. In addition, after the contents of the desiccant gel, the temperature and pressure cause the packaging material to break and the desiccants to leach out to the surface, and this leach out phenomenon has problems such as corrosion of the material or fatal problems with electrical and mechanical devices.

Accordingly, there is a need to develop a dehumidifying agent that utilizes a decomposable inorganic substance with excellent dehumidifying reliability while maintaining a moisture-proof state, and equipment or facilities capable of manufacturing the same.
