Definitions
- the invention relates to an arrangement for fluorinating plastic containers according to the preamble of claim 1 with a fluorination chamber, which is connected to a compressed gas tank via a feed line.
- the tightness of the wall can be improved in plastic containers.
- preformed hollow bodies made of simple thermoplastics are stacked in lattice trolleys and moved into the fluorination chamber.
- a technically dry-compressing vacuum pumping station removes oxygen and steam residues from the fluorination chamber so strongly that when a fluorine-gas mixture, which is located in the pressurized gas container, is introduced into the fluorination chamber, no harmful F 2 reactions, such as hydrofluoric acid (FH), can occur.
- the fluorination chamber is emptied until there is only a pressure of about 1 millibar in it.
- the low pressure prevents the highly reactive F 2 gas from entering into aggressive and dangerous compounds with the residual air components, which could be, for example, O 2 and H 2 O vapor.
- the rapid reaction of F 2 gas with these residual air components could result in the dangerous hydrofluoric acid (FH).
- the inside of the fluorination chamber should have a temperature of 50 to 60 degrees Celsius, since this is where the formation of desired fluorides is best can take place.
- the formed from the plastic molecules and fluorine molecules Fluorides are embedded in the molecular lattice of the thermoplastic and make the hollow bodies such as petrol tanks or beverage bottles essential poet.
- the temperature drops very much strong because the gas admitted into the fluorination chamber expands, thereby extracting heat from the chamber.
- the temperature can drop by about 40 to 50 degrees Celsius within 1 to 2 minutes due to the expanison cold that is released when you let it in.
- the fluorination chamber has to be reheated with a great deal of energy and time. Typical values are about 30 minutes at 5 kilowatts of heating power. Since pressure and temperature in the fluorination chamber are interrelated, the amount of fluorine gas mixture introduced into the fluorination chamber can only be determined when the temperature in the fluorination chamber has returned to its initial value.
- DE 35 11 743 C2 describes a device for producing fluorinated surfaces of polymers known in which in a container fluorine-containing treatment gas is conducted by means of a feed line. There is a in the feed line Valve arranged by means of which the treatment gas is let into the container becomes.
- DE 27 55 376 C2 describes a device for treating Plastic objects with sulfur trioxide known in which from an air dryer escaping dry compressed air flows through a pressure control valve, which ensures that dry air is available at a constant pressure. Then flows the dry compressed air through a solenoid valve into a heater. Because the solenoid valve either be fully open or fully closed can, it is not possible to have a certain flow resistance in the line build up. On the low pressure side of the pressure regulating valve can thus no adjustable back pressure build up. In addition, it is also not possible a predetermined volume of gas over a period of time, that of a few Minutes up to a few hours can be constant in constant amounts to keep.
- a pressure reducer and a reducing orifice are in the supply line arranged. This makes it easy to precisely control Feed the fluorine gas mixture into the fluorination chamber.
- the combination of the pressure reducer and the reducing orifice ensures that that even with the back pressure missing in the fluorination chamber, an exact controlled amount of the fluorine gas mixture introduced into the fluorination chamber can be.
- a flow resistance is created in the feed line by means of the reducing orifice trained, which causes a back pressure on the pressure reducer, whereby the pressure reducer can work properly. Without reducer there would be no back pressure on the pressure reducer, which would make it work could not execute.
- An arrangement has proven to be particularly favorable in which at least a wall of the fluorination chamber is heated and at a distance parallel to it Wall a heat exchange baffle is arranged. This allows the fluorine gas mixture in the area between the wall and the heat exchange control bleach be sprayed in, which can cause it to warm up on the heated wall. Hereby the initial temperature becomes very easy in the fluorination chamber restored. It is also particularly favorable if in the fluorination chamber a spray element having at least one nozzle is arranged by means of which the fluorine gas mixture introduced into the fluorination chamber is sprayed onto the chamber wall. It is particularly favorable if the spray element between the wall and the heat exchange baffle is.
- the gas mixture emerging from the spray element first meets the heated one Wall of the fluorination chamber and can be there in a matter of seconds warm up to the desired temperature of about 50 to 60 degrees Celsius before it slowly due to the heat exchange baffle into the interior of the fluorination chamber can flow in without lowering the temperature.
- An embodiment of the has proven to be particularly cheap, since it is particularly inexpensive Invention highlighted, in which the reducing orifice is designed as a shut-off valve is. This allows for the manufacture of the arrangement according to the invention Standard component can be used.
- An embodiment of the invention has proven to be very useful in which the reducing orifice is arranged between the pressure reducer and the fluorination chamber is. With such an arrangement, a reliable function is guaranteed.
- the single figure shows a schematic representation of an inventive Arrangement.
- a fluorination chamber 1 is connected to a compressed gas container 2 via a feed line 3.
- the fluorination chamber 1 has a volume of approximately 20 cubic meters and can be heated.
- the fluorination chamber 1 has a heated inner wall 9.
- the compressed gas tank 2 is a steel bottle which contains an F 2 / N 2 gas mixture with 20% fluorine and 80% nitrogen.
- the compressed gas container 2 can also be a bottle bundle.
- the compressed gas container 2 can also be designed as a central fluorine supply system with automatic switchover and F 2 absorber protection device, in which the switchover from an emptied bundle to a full bundle takes place automatically without interrupting the F 2 gas flow.
- the compressed gas container 2 has a shut-off valve 2a.
- a pressure reducer 4 and a reducing orifice 5 are arranged in the feed line 3.
- the reducing orifice 5 is a conventional shut-off valve and is between the pressure reducer 4 and the fluorination chamber 1 switched.
- the feed line 3 has a connection 9 on the one hand, to which the compressed gas container 2 is connected via a flexible connecting line 10.
- the feed line 3 is connected to a nozzle tube 8 which is in the fluorination chamber 1 is arranged.
- the nozzles of the nozzle tube 8 are heated to the Wall 6 of the fluorination chamber 1 directed and at a very short distance arranged to the heated wall 6.
- a heat exchanger baffle 7 is arranged.
- the heat exchanger baffle 7 is arranged or designed so that from the nozzles of the nozzle tube 8 emerging and on the heated wall 6 of the fluorination chamber 1 Impinging fluorine gas mixture slowly into the interior of the fluorination chamber 1 flows.
- the combination of the pressure reducer with the reducing orifice ensures that an approximately constant amount of the fluorine / gas mixture flows into the fluorination chamber 1 at a usable gas bottle pressure of approximately 100 to 10 bar.
- an amount of F 2 gas between 0.36 and 0.48 cubic meters per minute can be set, for example.
- the F 2 gas temperature which is stored in the pressurized gas container 2 at approximately 18 to 20 degrees Celsius, will cool in the selected example by approximately 3 to 7 degrees Celsius.
- a comparison with the cooling of about 50 degrees Celsius and more present in a conventional arrangement shows the advantages of the arrangement according to the invention. Since the dwell times of the plastic containers in the fluorination chamber 1 are reduced by approximately 30% due to the lower cooling, a whole day shift is saved in a three-shift operation.
