MICRO-POROUS HEAT-INSULATING MATERIAL, PROCEDURE AND MIXING INSTALLATION FOR ITS PRODUCTION Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC F16L59/00 C04B35/14 C04B35/80 C04B38/00 B01F7/18 

FIELD: machine building.

SUBSTANCE: micro-porous heat-insulating material is made out of pyrogenic silicon dioxide, glass fibre, and powder-like damper corresponding to titanium dioxide of silicon carbide; additionally material contains sintering additive in form of amorphous boron. The procedure for production of the said material consists in crumbling glass fibre, in introducing pyrogenic silicon dioxide, powder-like damper and sintering additive, in mixing in a mixing installation, in charging produced mixture into a mould, in dry pressing and in high temperature burning at temperature 850-1000°C during 2-4 hours. Components are mixed in the mixing installation of an anchor-blade type at shaft revolution speed 500-1000 rev/min during not more, than 20 min. The mixing installation consists of a cylinder case with a conic bottom and of a shaft with blades mounted coaxially to the case. An anchor is additionally attached to the shaft; the anchor forms gaps of 20 and 4 mm between a vertical wall of the case and the case bottom. The blades are inclined to horizon line at angle 85° in the direction of shaft rotation.

EFFECT: raised strength characteristics of micro-porous heat-insulating material without essential deterioration of its thermo-physical properties.
