Pneumatic conveying solution for carbon nanotube powder
Carbon nanotube powders often face issues such as material agglomeration, poor flow performance, and frequent pipeline blockages during traditional transportation. At the same time, ultrafine dust leakage not only causes raw material waste but also poses threats to the production environment and human health. Existing equipment struggles to adapt to its high specific surface area and low bulk density, resulting in low conveying efficiency and high maintenance costs, which restricts the stability and continuity of large-scale production.
Material characteristics
Carbon nanotube powders are lightweight, have a high specific surface area, and possess strong adsorption properties. Its particles are fine (usually nano to micron scale), have high surface energy, and are prone to electrostatic aggregation when dry, with a large internal friction angle and poor flowability. During transportation, materials adhere strongly to pipe walls, easily forming deposits, and carry the usual explosion risk (dust clouds), which imposes strict requirements on the sealing and explosion-proof performance of the conveying system.
Product Introduction
Head Powder has launched customized pneumatic conveying solutions and complete equipment tailored to the unique physical properties of carbon nanotube powders. The system uses fully enclosed pipeline conveying, with options for positive pressure dilute phase, negative pressure suction, or dense phase plugged flow, matching wear-resistant and anti-static pipelines with gas source treatment units tailored to material characteristics. The equipment integrates an automatic control system to achieve relatively accurate adjustment of conveying volume, gas-solid ratio, and flow rate, and is equipped with a high-efficiency dust collection device, ensuring zero material leakage and low pollution. The complete system can be customized with non-standard designs based on customers' production line layouts, conveying distances, and capacity requirements, meeting various application scenarios from laboratory to industrial grades.
Product advantages
Head Powder's pneumatic conveying solution for carbon nanotube powder directly addresses customer pain points: by optimizing gas source parameters and pipeline structure, it effectively suppresses material agglomeration and blockage, improving conveying efficiency to stable levels; Sealed circulation design thoroughly eliminates dust escape, improves the working environment, and reduces material loss; Modular and intelligent control reduces manual intervention and decreases operation and maintenance frequency; To address the characteristic fluctuations of different batches of materials, the system has adaptive adjustment capability to help ensure conveying continuity. In addition, the company provides full-cycle services from solution design and equipment manufacturing to installation and commissioning, which helps ensure the implementation of solutions.
