Description
BACKGROUND
1. Field

The present disclosure relates to a facility for forming a composite by mixing and extruding a polymer resin and one of graphene and a carbon material, and particularly, to a facility for forming one of a graphene-polymer resin composite and a carbon material-polymer resin composite which enables graphene or a carbon material to be coupled to a polymer resin well by effectively separating and discharging gas, water vapor, and so on generated in a process of forming the composite.


2. Description of the Related Art

A polymer resin material has been widely used due to excellent moldability, productivity, and uniform quality, but there are disadvantages such as weakness in heat and weakness in external impact, and thus, there is a need to develop a new material capable of compensating for the disadvantages.


Accordingly, a method of mixing a polymer resin with a reinforcing material to improve physical properties such as strength of product and elastic modulus, electromagnetic wave shielding, and electrical conductivity is used, and the reinforcing material includes a metallic material such as aluminum or stainless steel, an organic material such as aramid or poly-phenylene benzobisoxazole (PBO), an inorganic material such as silicon carbide, and a carbon material.


A method of improving the electrical conductivity, an electromagnetic wave shielding function, an anti-static function, and a heat dissipation function of products by mixing a carbon fiber reinforcing material such as carbon fiber, carbon nanotube, or graphene, which has a high strength and a light weight, among the materials, with a polymer resin is widely used, but when pellets are formed by mixing the carbon-based reinforcing material with the polymer resin or when a molded product is produced by injection molding or an extrusion molding, a phenomenon in which the carbon material aggregates inside the polymer resin occurs, which acts as a factor that degrades the physical properties of the molded product.


In addition, gas is generated from the polymer resin in a melting process for extruding the polymer resin, the generated gas serves to separate the carbon material from the resin at an interface of the carbon material, and thus, there is a problem that. mechanical properties of the molded product are degraded because interfacial bonding of the carbon material and the polymer resin is hindered.


In order to solve this problem, Korean Patent Publication No. 2019-0045236 proposed a method of forming reinforced polyamide by extrusion, a polymerizable mixture is obtained by introducing a mixture including lactam, catalyst, and activator into a first compartment of an extruder reaction zone, a carbon-containing polymerizable mixture is obtained by adding a carbon material to the polymerizable mixture in a second compartment, a reinforced raw polyamide is obtained by polymerizing the carbon-containing polymerizable mixture in a third compartment, and thereafter, a reinforced polyamide is obtained by devolatilizing the reinforced raw polyamide in a devolatilization zone of the extruder.


The devolatilization zone includes a stress relief zone and a pressure increase zone which are arranged repeatedly, water is added as a stripping agent in the pressure increase zone, and a vacuum pump creates a vacuum in the stress relief zone, and thus, a volatile substance contained in raw polyamide is removed.


However, since the reinforced polyamide removes the volatile substances while supplying water, there are disadvantages that volatile substance removal efficiency is reduced and physical properties of the reinforced polyamide are degraded because the moisture used in the devolatilization process hinders bonding of carbon and polyamide.


In addition, Korea Patent Registration No. 1970926 proposed an extrusion apparatus capable of effectively removing gas components contained in a molten resin, the extrusion apparatus heats and melts a resin raw material in a heater and transports the resin raw material to a nozzle assembly under a pressure, gas and moisture components are discharged to the outside in a state where the molten resin spreads thinly and evenly during transport, and thus, the gas and moisture are effectively removed from the molten resin.


However, the extrusion apparatus heats and melts the resin raw material by using a heater resulting in generation of gas components, the gas components form air pockets in a transport path of the molten resin, which hinders a flow thereof, and also, the molten resin has to pass through a thin gap so as to be spread, and thus, a resin may carbonize in a stagnant section.


SUMMARY

The present disclosure is to solve the above-described problems and provides a facility for forming one of a graphene-polymer resin composite and a carbon material-polymer resin composite capable of uniformly dispersing graphene or a carbon material in a polymer resin while efficiently removing gas and water vapor contained in graphene, a carbon material, and a polymer resin in a process of mixing and extruding the graphene or the carbon material with the polymer resin.


According to an aspect of the present disclosure, a facility for forming one of a graphene-polymer resin composite and a carbon material-polymer resin composite includes an extruder 100 that mixes graphene or a carbon material with a polymer resin, melts the mixed material, and extrudes the melted material to a filter assembly 400; a heater 300 that is installed on an outer circumferential surface of the extruder 100 to heat the graphene, the carbon material, and the polymer resin; the filter assembly 400 that discharges gas generated from the graphene or the carbon material and the polymer resin which are extruded from the extruder 100 to the outside; and an air purification apparatus 500 that removes harmful components in the gas discharged from the filter assembly 400 and discharges clean gas to the outside.


In this case, the facility for forming the composite may further include a side feeder block 200 that additionally supplies one of graphene and a carbon material between the extruder 100 and the filter assembly 400.


In addition, the filter assembly 400 may include a housing 16 that has one side on which the molten liquid supply portion 27 is mounted and through which the molten liquid is supplied, and that includes a gas intake 14 and a gas outlet 12; a gas separation portion 20 that is disposed in a longitudinal direction in a hollow formed inside the housing 16 and has multiple flow channels 18 and 34 formed on a surface thereof in a diagonal shape in the longitudinal direction so as to discharge gas contained in the molten liquid in a process in which the molten liquid flows through the flow channels 18 and 34 in a diagonal direction; multiple vent rings 22 that are tightly coupled to an outer circumferential surface of the gas separation portion 20 to seal radially outer openings of the flow channels 18 and 34 and thereby preventing the molten liquid from leaking so that the molten liquid flows in the longitudinal direction and the gas contained in the molten liquid is discharged through a micro path; and a head 24 that is coupled to the other side of the housing 16 to discharge the molten liquid passing through the gas separation portion 20 and presses the multiple vent rings 22 to come into close contact with each other.


According to a facility for forming a composite of the present disclosure, in a process of forming one of a graphene-polymer resin composite and a carbon material-polymer resin composite, gas and water vapor contained in graphene, a carbon material, and a polymer resin are effectively removed, and thus, a coupling force between the graphene or the carbon material and the polymer resin increases, and also, the graphene or the carbon material is uniformly dispersed inside the polymer resin, and thus, physical properties of the composite is not degraded.


In addition, the polymer resin may be prevented from carbonizing or solidifying because there is no stagnant section while molten liquid of the graphene or the carbon material and the polymer resin passes through each apparatus in a forming facility, and thus, the physical properties of the composite are maintained constant.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

A facility for forming one of a graphene-polymer resin composite and a carbon material-polymer resin composite according to the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.


It should be noted that, in adding reference numerals to configuration elements of each drawing, the same configuration elements are denoted by the same reference numerals as possible even though the configuration elements are illustrated in other drawings.


In addition, in describing the present disclosure, when it is determined that detailed description on related well-known structures or functions may obscure the subject matter of the present disclosure, the detailed description will be omitted.



FIG. 1 schematically illustrates a facility for forming one a graphene-polymer resin composite and a carbon material-polymer resin composite according to the present disclosure.


As illustrated in FIG. 1, a facility for forming a composite according to the present disclosure includes an extruder 100 that mixes graphene or a carbon material with a polymer resin, melts the mixed material, and extrudes the melted material to a filter assembly 400; a heater 300 that is installed on an outer circumferential surface of the extruder 100 to heat graphene, a carbon material, and a polymer resin; the filter assembly 400 that discharges gas generated from the graphene or carbon material and the polymer resin extruded from the extruder 100 to the outside; and an air purification apparatus 500 that removes harmful components from the gas discharged from the filter assembly 400 and discharges clean gas to the outside.


In the facility for forming the composite, a side feeder block 200 for additionally supplying the graphene or the carbon material may be installed between the extruder 100 and the filter assembly 400, and the heater 300 for heating the graphene or carbon material and the polymer resin may be installed on an outer circumferential surface of the side feeder block 200 like the extruder 100.


A plurality of the side feeder blocks 200 may be installed in series in a flow direction of the graphene or carbon material and the polymer resin, and in a state where the plurality of side feeder blocks 200 are installed, the graphene or carbon material is dividedly input to the polymer resin, and thus, content of the graphene or the carbon material increases more than content of the polymer resin and the graphene or the carbon material may be mixed with the polymer resin more uniformly.


The extruder 100 includes a hopper 1 that contains the graphene or carbon material and the polymer resin, a body 2 having a path through which the graphene or carbon material and the polymer resin moves, and an extruder screw 3 that is included in a movement path in the body 2, receives the polymer resin from the hopper 1, melts the polymer resin by using heat of the heater 300, and extrudes the melted polymer resin to the side feeder block 200 or the filter assembly 400.



FIG. 1 illustrates a single screw extruder having one extruder screw 3, and it is also possible to use a twin-screw extruder having two extruder screws 3.


The side feeder block 200 includes a side feeder block inlet 7 for containing the graphene or the carbon material, and a side feeder block body 8 having a path through which the graphene or carbon material and the polymer resin move.


The extruder screw 3 extends inside the side feeder block body 8 and the heater 300 is installed on an outer circumferential surface of the side feeder block body 8, and thus, the graphene or carbon material and the polymer resin extruded from the extruder 100 and the graphene or carbon material supplied from the side feeder block inlet 7 are mixed, melted by heating of the heater 300, and then extruded to the filter assembly 400.


The carbon material used in the present disclosure is a multi-purpose resin reinforcing material capable of improving electrical conductivity, electromagnetic wave shielding, anti-static, thermal conductivity, strength, elastic modulus, and so on, and improves physical properties of a composite and provides various functions to the composite as a reinforcing material and filling material for a composite, and includes carbon fiber, carbon nanotube, graphite, carbon black, and fullerene other than graphene.


Among these materials, the graphene and the polymer resin are input to the hopper 1 of the extruder 100 to be mixed and melt, and then, carbon nanotube is input to the inlet 7 of the side feeder block 200, and thus, a composite in which graphene, carbon nanotube, and a polymer resin are mixed with each other may be formed.


Graphene has a shape in which six hexagonal carbon atoms are arranged in a two-dimensional planar shape, carbon nanotube is a one-dimensional spiral material which forms a net structure in which six hexagonal carbon atoms are connected in a tubular shape, and the graphene and the carbon nanotube have a large specific surface area, high thermal/electrical conductivity, and light weight, thereby, being able to be widely used in various fields.


The graphene is superior in physical properties compared to carbon nanotube, but commercialization thereof is late more than the carbon nanotube, and thus, a formation cost of the composite is increased when the graphene is used alone, and physical properties thereof are lower than the graphene when the carbon nanotube is used alone.


Accordingly, it is preferable to use the graphene and the carbon nanotube together as a graphene-polymer resin composite or a carbon material-polymer resin composite, and there is a problem that the graphene and the carbon nanotube have a high interlayer contact resistance and dispersion is not uniform due to mutual aggregation.


As described above, when the graphene and the polymer resin are input to the extruder 100 and the carbon nanotube is input to the side feeder block 200, the graphene and the polymer resin are first heated in the heater 300 to be melt and then the carbon nanotube is mixed therewith, and thereby, the graphene and the carbon nanotube are not mixed together and the graphene and the carbon material are mixed while being thinly spread in the filter assembly 400 at a post-process, and thus, two-dimensional graphene and one-dimensional carbon nanotube are uniformly dispersed in the polymer resin.


If a composite composed of the graphene or carbon material and the polymer resin has a large amount of gas or moisture, interfacial coupling between the graphene or carbon material and the polymer resin is hindered to cause mechanical properties of molded products formed as a composite are degraded, and thus, the filter assembly 400 is mounted on an output side of the extruder 100 or the side feeder block 200 to remove gas and moisture from the polymer resin.



FIGS. 2 to 8 illustrate a structure of the filter assembly 400, the filter assembly 400 removes gas (including water vapor) contained in the graphene or carbon material and the polymer resin (hereinafter, referred to as “molten liquid”) such that the graphene or carbon material and the polymer resin are mixed with each other well.


The filter assembly 400 includes a housing in which a gas outlet 12 and a gas intake 14 are formed; a gas separation portion 20 that is disposed in a longitudinal direction in a hollow formed inside the housing 16 and has multiple molten liquid flow channels 18 and 34 formed on a surface thereof in a diagonal shape in the longitudinal direction so as to make the molten liquid flow through the molten liquid flow channels 18 and 34 under a certain pressure to discharge gas; multiple vent rings 22 that are tightly coupled to an outer circumferential surface of the gas separation portion 20 to seal the radially outer openings of the molten liquid flow channels 18 and 34 thereby preventing a molten liquid from leaking so that the molten liquid flows in the longitudinal direction and the gas contained in the molten liquid is discharged through a gap t; and a head 24 that is coupled to the other side of the housing 16 to discharge the molten liquid passing through the gas separation portion 20 and presses the multiple vent rings 22 to come into close contact with each other.


The housing 16 has a hollow formed in the longitudinal direction therein and a molten liquid supply portion 27 formed at a rear end 18b thereof to be coupled to an output side of the extruder 100 or the side feeder block 200, and thus, the molten liquid ejected from the extruder 100 or the side feeder block 200 is supplied to the gas separation portion 20 through the molten liquid supply portion 27.


The housing 16 has a front end that may be screwed to the head 24, and the gas separation portion 20 is disposed in a hollow formed inside the housing 16, and thus, gas contained in the molten liquid is separated and discharged.


The gas separation portion 20 includes a main body 28; the multiple molten liquid flow channels 18 and 34 which are formed concavely on an outer circumferential surface of the main body 28 in a diagonal direction and in the longitudinal direction and through which molten liquid flows; and a support plate 32 that is radially disposed at one side end of the main body 28 and has multiple inflow hole 30 formed at regular intervals in a circumferential direction and corresponds to the multiple molten liquid flow channels 18 and 34 to cause the molten liquid supplied through the molten liquid supply portion 27 to be supplied to the molten liquid flow channels 18 and 34 through the inflow holes 30.


The main body 28 has a cylindrical shape, a first wedge W1 protrudes on one side (extruder 100) thereof, and a second wedge W2 protrudes on the other side (in a direction of the head 24) thereof.


As the first wedge W1 protrudes in the direction of the extruder 100, the molten liquid ejected from the extruder 100 may be supplied to the gas separation portion 20 in a properly dispersed state in a process of being transported along the conical first wedge W1.


In addition, multiple molten liquid flow channels 18 and 34 are formed on an outer circumferential surface of the main body 28 at a certain depth and are formed to be inclined at a certain angle in the longitudinal direction, that is, in a diagonal direction, and thus, the molten liquid flows through the molten liquid flow channels 18 and 34.


The multiple molten liquid flow channels 18 and 34 includes first flow channels 18 that are formed concavely in the diagonal direction on a surface of the main body 28; second flow channels 34 that alternate with the first flow channels and are arranged side by side and adjacent to the first flow channels 18 to cause the molten liquid overflow; and flow channel protruding jaws 35 which protrude between the first and second flow channels 18 and 34 to distinguish the first and second flow channels 18 and 34 and have overflow holes h formed at peaks P thereof to enable the molten liquid of the first flow channels 18 to overflow to the second flow channels 34, and the multiple first and second flow channels 18 and 34 and the flow channel protruding jaws 35 are arranged alternately and repeatedly along a circumferential surface of the main body 28.


Since the first and second flow channels 18 and 34 are formed concavely at a certain depth from the surface of the main body 28, molten liquid flows in a direction of the head 24 along the molten liquid flow channels 18 and 34, and at this time, since the multiple vent rings 22 are tightly coupled to the outer circumferential surface of the main body 28 of the gas separation portion 20, the radially outer openings 19 of the multiple molten liquid flow channels 18 and 34 are sealed by the vent rings 22.


Accordingly, the molten liquid may flow through inner spaces of the multiple molten liquid flow channels 18 and 34 without leakage, and in this process, gas contained in the molten liquid may be discharged, pass through spaces between the multiple vent rings 22 coupled to the outside of the main body 28, and be discharged to the outside.


In more detail, an opening is formed at the rear end 18b of the first flow channel 18 to correspond to the inflow hole 30 of the support plate 32, an inclined surface S is formed at a front end 18a, the inclined surface S is formed at a rear end 34b of the second flow channel 34, an opening is formed at a front end 34a, and thus, the molten liquid is ejected to the head 24.


The support plate 32 disposed on one side of the main body 28 has a disc shape and includes the multiple inflow holes 30 disposed in a circumferential direction thereof, and thus, molten liquid supplied under pressure from the extruder 100 flows into the multiple first flow channels 18 through the inflow holes 30 of the support plate 32 and flows to the front end 18a.


The molten liquid flowing to the front end 18a of the first flow channel 18 reaches the inclined surface S and then is blocked by an inner circumferential surface of the vent ring 22, and at this time, the molten liquid flowing along the first flow channel 18 overflows to the adjacent second flow channel 34 through the overflow hole h because the flow channel protrusion jaw 35 formed between the first flow channel 18 and the second flow channel 34 adjacent to each other has a smaller diameter than an imaginary circular arc formed along the circumferential surface of the main body 28.


At this time, a part of the molten liquid reaching the inclined surface S of the first flow channel 18 may be ejected in the direction of the head 24 through a micro ejection hole 33 formed in the inclined surface S, and as such, a part of the molten liquid may be ejected through the micro ejection hole 33.


Accordingly, the molten liquid flowing through the molten liquid flow channels 18 and 34 may be prevented from leaking into the gap t of the vent ring 22 or from clogging the gap t due to an excessive pressure, and also, there is an effect that the polymer resin is prevented from solidifying due to stagnation of the molten liquid on the inclined surface S.


In addition, as illustrated in FIG. 6, the molten liquid passes to the adjacent second flow channel 34 through the overflow hole h formed in the flow channel protruding jaw 35, the molten liquid passes in a stretched state of a thin thickness because the path of the overflow hole h is narrow so that the gas contained in the molten liquid may be effectively discharged, and also, the graphene or the carbon material contained in the molten liquid is uniformly distributed in the molten liquid.


In addition, since the molten liquid flow channels 18 and 34 are diagonal, the path of the overflow hole h may be formed to be longer compared to a case of a straight line shape, and thus, a larger amount of the molten liquid may pass through the gas separation portion 20 for a unit time, and since the time when the molten liquid flows through the diagonal molten liquid flow channels 18 and 34 increases compared to the case of the straight line shape, the time when the gas contained in the molten liquid may be discharged becomes longer, and thus, the gas contained in the molten liquid may be effectively discharged from the gas separation portion 20.


The molten liquid overflowing to the second flow channel 34 is transported to the head 24 along the second wedge W2 through the opening at the front end 34a of the second flow channel 34, and then, is extruded to a die or a mold through a nozzle 25, and the molten liquid flows along the conical second wedge W2, and thus, the molten liquid may be ejected more effectively.


Since the molten liquid flowing along the molten liquid flow channels 18 and 34 is under a certain pressure, the gas generated from the molten liquid is discharged to the outside through the multiple vent rings 22 coupled to the outside of the main body 28.


As illustrated in FIGS. 3 and 4, the vent ring 22 has a circular ring shape and includes an insertion hole 21 inside a radius; a first protruding jaw 48 that protrudes on a front surface of the vent ring 22 in a circumferential direction around the insertion hole 21, has a radial micro path formed on a surface thereof, and is in contact with a rear surface of the adjacent vent ring 22; and a gas discharge groove 23 that is formed concavely on a circumferential surface of the vent ring 22 in a longitudinal direction to become a gas discharge path.


The main body 28 of the gas separation portion 20 is inserted into the insertion hole 21 to enable the vent ring 22 to be coupled to the main body 28, and an inner circumferential surface of the insertion hole 21 of the vent ring 22 is tightly coupled to an outer circumferential surface of the main body 28 of the gas separation portion 20, and thus, the multiple molten liquid flow channels 18 and 34 are sealed.


The micro path formed in the first protruding jaw 48 has a size through which gas passes and the molten liquid does not pass, and thus, the molten liquid passing through the gas separation portion 20 overflows from the first flow channel 18 to the second flow channel 34 through the overflow hole h, and the gas generated from the molten liquid is discharged through the micro path formed in the first protruding jaw 48.


The first protruding jaw 48 is formed to protrude in a lateral direction of the vent ring 22 so as to come into contact with a rear surface of the adjacent vent ring 22, and thus, a gas collection groove 47 having a predetermined distance between rims of the adjacent vent rings 22 is formed, and the gas discharged through the micro path of the first protruding jaw 48 is collected in the gas collection groove 47.


In order to increase a gas discharge effect, a structure of the vent ring 22 may be appropriately changed, and as illustrated in FIG. 7, a second protruding jaw 49 may be additionally formed on the vent ring 22, the second protruding jaw 49 is formed to protrude on a front side of the vent ring 22 in a circumferential direction around the rim of the vent ring 22 and is disposed at a regular interval from the first protruding jaw 48, and a protruding length thereof is smaller than a protruding length of the first protruding jaw 48.


Accordingly, the second protruding jaw 49 is not in contact with a rear surface of the adjacent vent ring 22, the gas collection grooves 47 is formed between the first and second protruding jaws 48 and 49 while forming a constant gap t, and thus, gas discharged from the molten liquid flow channels 18 and 34 passes through the micro path of the first protruding jaw 48 to be collected in the gas collection groove 47 and then discharged to the outside through the gap t.


At this time, multiple gas discharge grooves 23 are concavely formed at a certain depth on a circumferential surface of the vent ring 22, these gas discharge grooves 23 are disposed at regular intervals from each other along the rim, and the gas discharge grooves 23 formed in the respective vent rings 22 are aligned in the longitudinal direction in the same line as the gas discharge grooves 23 of the adjacent vent rings 22.


Accordingly, the gas collected in the gas collection grooves 47 of the respective vent rings 22 passes through the gap t and flows into the gas discharge grooves 23, and then, passes through the gas discharge grooves 23 of the adjacent vent rings 22 aligned on the same line and may be effectively discharged to the outside through a gas outlet 12 formed in the housing 16 through the gas discharge grooves 23.


Although it is described above that the gas collection grooves 47 are formed in the vent rings 22, the present disclosure is not limited to this, may be changed, and micro grooves 40 may be formed on the entire front surface of the vent ring 22 as illustrated in FIG. 8.


That is, without forming the gas collection grooves 47 in the front surface of the vent ring 22, multiple micro grooves 40 may be formed in a radially outer direction around the insertion hole 21 of the vent ring 22, and it is preferably form a width or depth of the micro groove 40 to be a size, for example 0.001 to 0.100 mm, through which gas passes and molten liquid does not pass in the same manner as in the micro path formed in the first protruding jaw 48 of the vent ring 22, and the micro groove 40 may be formed in various shapes such as a straight line shape and a curved shape.


In order to discharge the gas more effectively, the gas intake 14 may be disposed on the opposite side of the gas outlet 12 of the housing 16, and it is preferable to dispose the gas intake 14 and the gas outlet 12 to be spaced apart from each other as far as possible around the longitudinal direction of the housing 16.


The gas intake 14 is opened to external air to enable the air to be sucked in or is connected to a container storing inert gas depending on the type of a polymer resin to be used to enable the inert gas to be sucked in, and thus, safety of the facility for forming a composite according to the present disclosure may be secured.


The gas outlet 12 is connected to a vacuum pump 63, which will be described later, to transport air or inert gas to the air purification apparatus 500, and when air or inert gas flows into an internal space of the housing 16 through the gas intake 14 as described above, the gas discharged from the gas separation portion 20 may be effectively discharged from the inner space of the housing 16 by a suction force of the vacuum pump 63.


The head 24 is screwed to an outlet of the housing 16, and the nozzle 25 is formed at a front end of the head 24, the molten liquid passing through the second wedge W2 of the gas separation portion 20 is ejected to a die or a mold through the nozzle 25, and by mounting a pellet formation apparatus in an outlet of the nozzle 25, a graphene-polymer resin composite pellet or a carbon material-polymer resin composite pellet is formed or injected into a mold to manufacture an injection product.


The filter assembly 400 configured as described above may be operated as follows.


Molten liquid extruded from the extruder 100 or the side feeder block 200 is supplied to the gas separation portion 20 through the first wedge W1, and the molten liquid flows along the conical first wedge W1, and thus, the molten liquid passes through multiple inflow holes 30 formed in the support plate 32 in a properly dispersed state.


At this time, the multiple inflow holes 30 correspond to the multiple first flow channels 18 formed on an outer circumferential surface of the main body 28 of the gas separation portion 20, and thus the molten liquid flows through the multiple first flow channels 18.


At this time, the multiple molten liquid flow channels 18 and 34 are formed in a diagonal direction to extend the time when the molten liquid passes through the gas separation portion 20, and thereby the time when the molten liquid stays in the gas separation portion 20 increases, and thus, a larger amount of gas may be discharged from the molten liquid.


The molten liquid flowing through the first flow channel 18 reaches the inclined surface S formed at the front end 18a, and the flowing of the molten liquid is blocked on the inclined surface S, and thus, the molten liquid overflows to the second flow channel 34 through the overflow hole h of the protruding jaw 35 formed between the adjacent second flow channels 34.


Since the overflow hole h has a narrow path, the molten liquid passes in a stretched state of a thin thickness, and thus, gas contained in the molten liquid may be effectively discharged, and since graphene or a carbon material contained in the molten liquid is uniformly distributed over all, the graphene or carbon material is not aggregated in the molten liquid, and thus, physical properties of a graphene-polymer resin composite or a carbon material-polymer resin composite to be formed is excellent.


In addition, when the graphene and the polymer resin are input to the extruder 100 and the carbon nanotube is input to the side feeder block 200, the two-dimensional graphene having a thickness of approximately 0.2 nm passes through a narrow path of the overflow hole h in turn in a state where a plane thereof is lay horizontally, and thereby, the graphene is divided to overflow, and when one-dimensional carbon nanotubes having a thickness of approximately 1 nm are mixed together, the carbon nanotube does not pass through the narrow path of the overflow hole h, and thereby, while passing through the flow hole h, the carbon nanotube is naturally separated from each other while being spread out thinly, and is stable enough not to be destroyed even if the shape is deformed, and thus, the graphene and carbon nanotube may be uniformly dispersed in a molten polymer resin to exert a function thereof.


The molten liquid moved to the second flow channel 34 flows through the second flow channel 34, is discharged through an opening of the front end 34a, moves to the head 24 along the second wedge W2, and then is ejected to a die or a mold through the nozzle 25.


A part of the molten liquid reaching the inclined surface S of the first flow channel 18 may be ejected in the direction of the head 24 through the micro ejection hole 33 formed in the inclined surface S, and as such, a part of the molten liquid is ejected through the micro ejection hole 33 to prevent an excessive pressure from being applied to the molten liquid flowing through the first flow channel 18 so that the molten liquid is prevented from leaking into the gap t of the vent ring 22 or from clogging the gap t, and to prevent the polymer resin from carbonizing or solidifying due to stagnation of the molten liquid on the inclined surface S.


Since the molten liquid flowing through the oblique flow channels 18 and 34 is under a certain pressure, gas contained in the molten liquid passes through micro paths or gaps between the micro grooves 40 of the multiple vent rings 22 coupled an outer circumferential surface of the main body 28 to be collected in the gas collection groove 47, and then sequentially flows through the gas discharge grooves 23 of the vent rings 22 and thereafter, is discharged to the air purification apparatus 500 through the gas outlet 12 formed in the housing 16.


During this process, gas may be effectively removed from the molten liquid passing through the filter assembly 400.


Gas discharged from the gas outlet 12 of the filter assembly 400 is discharged to the air purification apparatus 500 via a gas discharge pipe 61, a gas suction pipe 62, and the vacuum pump 63, wherein an air filter 64 for blocking foreign matter in an external air from being sucked in is connected to an end of the gas suction pipe 62, the vacuum pump 63 is connected to the other end thereof, and the gas discharge pipe 61 is coupled to the middle of the gas suction pipe 62 at right angles.


The external air is discharged to the air purification apparatus 500 through the air filter 64, the gas suction pipe 62, and the vacuum pump 63 by an operation of the vacuum pump 63, and as the air passes through the gas suction pipe 62 at a high speed, a negative pressure is formed in the gas discharge pipe 61 coupled to the gas suction pipe 61 at right angles according to Bernoulli's theorem, and thus, the negative pressure is also formed in the gas collection groove 47 coupled thereto.


Accordingly, gas collected in the gas collection groove 47 is quickly discharged to the air purification apparatus 500 via the gas discharge pipe 61, the gas suction pipe 62, and also acts as a suction force in the gas passing through the micro path or the micro groove 40 formed in the vent ring 22 of the gas separation portion 20 to smoothly discharge the gas generated from the molten liquid to the air purification apparatus 500.


In FIG. 1, the vacuum pump 63 is installed in a downstream end of the gas suction pipe 62 to suck gas, but it is also possible to install a blower in an upstream end of the gas suction pipe 62 instead of installing the vacuum pump 63, and a negative pressure is formed in the gas discharge pipe 61 by blowing of the blower in the same manner as the above-described principle to discharge gas of the gas separation portion 20 to the outside, and in this case, the blower does not come into direct contact with the gas discharged from the filter assembly 400, and thus, there is an advantage in that the blower is prevented from being corroded by the gas.


In addition, although FIG. 1 illustrates a configuration in which external air is introduced into the gas intake pipe 62 through the air filter 64, the gas discharge pipe without installing the air filter 64 and the gas intake pipe 62 as required 61) may be directly connected to the vacuum pump 63 to prevent external air from entering, and in this case, there is an effect of reducing the load of the air purification apparatus 500.



FIG. 10 is a view schematically illustrating a structure of the air purification apparatus 500, and the air purification apparatus 500 includes a purification apparatus body 71; a gas input hole 72 which is installed on a side surface of the purification apparatus body 71 and to which gas transported from the drying vacuum pump 63 input; a collection section 73 for removing harmful components in the gas as the gas input through the gas input hole 72 comes into contact with sprayed water; an outlet 74 for discharging clean air from which harmful components in the gas are removed from the collection section 73 to the outside; a pump 75 for spraying water into the collection section 73; a pair of spray nozzles 76 that is installed in the collection section 73 and receives water from the pump 75 to spray the water in the vertical direction while facing each other; a water tank 77 in which water sprayed in the collection section 73 flows and collects; and a water processing filter 78 for filtering water circulating in the air purification apparatus 500.


All materials consist of atoms, the atom consists of a positively charged central nucleus and a negatively charged electron circling the nucleus, and when two materials collide with each other, some of the electrons in the atoms of one material move freely without being bound to any atom between two atoms, and at this time, while the two atoms in contact with each other are separated from each other, a positively charged atom from which an electron is separated, and a negatively charged atom to which the electron is absorbed are partially generated.


The air purification apparatus 500 generates static electricity by strongly colliding water by using an ionization phenomenon in which the static electricity is generated by collision of water, and the generated static electricity decomposes harmful material particles or is removed by coupling to harmful component particles.


That is, while water ejected from upper and lower high-pressure sprary nozzles facing each other collides with each other, high collision energy is generated, particles of water are micronized by the high collision energy to generate static electricity, and thereby, a large amount of radicals are continuously generate and dissipated.


In addition, the micronized particles of water form a water film to increase a contact area with gas particles passing through the collection section 73 and to maintain a long contact time, and thus, efficiency of removing harmful component particles may increase.


As described above, the air purification apparatus 500 includes a water film filter in which micro particles of water and radical are generated by water sprayed from the spray nozzle 76 in the collection section 73, the generated radical performs an ionizing reaction with gas, water vapor, and so on which are transported from the drying vacuum pump 63 to decompose harmful components, the harmful components are collected by the water film filter to be stored in the water tank 77.


The longer the operation time of the air purification apparatus 500, the more the harmful components (including foreign matters) collected in water increase, and the increased harmful components hinder generation of static electricity and formation of a water film in the collection section 73 and increases content of the harmful components in clean gas discharged from the outlet 74, and also, foreign matters contained in the harmful components block the water processing filter 78 to hinder a continuous operation of the air purification apparatus 500.


The water processing filter 78 filters water circulating in the air purification apparatus 500 to remove foreign matters from the water, and thus, the continuous operation of the air purification apparatus 500 and the content of harmful components in the clean gas is maintained below a standard value, and FIGS. 10 and 11 illustrate one embodiment of a water processing filter 78 according to the present disclosure.


The water processing filter 78 includes a liquid flow pipe 81 through which water containing foreign matters passes; a branch pipe 82 having an upstream end disposed in the liquid flow pipe 81 and a downstream end disposed outside the liquid flow pipe 81; a filtration net 83 that is mounted on the upstream end of the branch pipe 82 and has multiple micro through-holes 88 formed in a thickness direction and in which the micro through-hole 88 has a taper shape of which a diameter gradually narrows in a water flow direction; a first valve 84 installed in a downstream end of the branch pipe 82; a gas supply pipe 85 having one end coupled to an upstream side of the first valve 84 in a downstream end of the branch pipe 82 and having the other end coupled to a gas supply source (not illustrated); and a second valve 86 installed in the middle of the gas supply pipe 85.


The multiple micro through-holes 88 are formed in the filtration net 83, and the filtration net 83 may be formed by bending a metal plate in a conical shape or may have a hollow conical shape formed by injection molding with resin so that an apex is disposed on an upstream side in a fluid flow direction, and the micro through-hole 88 has a tapered shape that is opened in a thickness direction of the filtration net 83 and narrows in diameter from an upstream end to a downstream end.


A diameter of the upstream end of each of the micro through-holes 88 may be 10 to 100 μm, a diameter of the downstream end may be 1 to 10 μm, adjacent micro through-holes 88 may be formed in a lattice pattern with an interval of 1 μm or less, and a ratio between a diameter on a base side of the conical filtration net 83 and a length thereof in a water flow direction may be 1:1.5 to 2.5.


In the water processing filter 78 configured as described above, an upstream end of the liquid flow pipe 81 is coupled to an ejection portion of the pump 75 and a downstream end is coupled to the water tank 77, and thus, water in the water tank 77 circulates in the pump 75 and the water processing filter 78, and the water from which foreign matters are removed is supplied to the spray nozzle 76 through the branch pipe 82 to collect the harmful components in the gas input to the air purification apparatus 500.


Looking at an operation of the water processing filter 78 in more detail, when the pump 75 operates in a state where the first valve 84 is opened and the second valve 86 is closed, water containing solid foreign matter is input to an upstream end of the liquid flow pipe 81 from the water tank 77 by the pump 75 to face the filtration net 83, water (water from which foreign matters are filtered) passing through the multiple micro through-holes 88 of the filtration net 83 among the water transported toward the filtration net 83 is supplied to the spray nozzle 76 through the branch pipe 82 of the water processing filter 78, and water (water containing foreign matters) that does not pass through the micro through-holes 88 of the filtration net 83 returns to the water tank 77 via a downstream end of the liquid flow pipe 81.


If this state is continued, solid foreign matters may be stuck to the multiple micro through-holes 88 having a tapered shape, but since the micro through-holes 88 have the tapered shape, a contact area between water flowing through an outer surface of the filtration net 83 because the water does not pass through the filtration net 83 and foreign matters stuck in the micro through-holes 88 is smaller than a contact area between water passing through the filtration net 83 and the foreign matters stuck in the micro through-holes 88.


As the result, a lift force is generated in the foreign matters stuck in multiple micropores to cause the foreign matters to be released from the micropores and then to return to the water tank 77, and thus, even when a filtering process for fluid is performed for a long time, the micro through-holes 88 formed in the filtration net 83 are not blocked, and thereby, the filtration process may be continuously performed without replacing and cleaning a filter.


When the air purification apparatus 500 operates for a long time, foreign matters may be stuck in the micro through-holes 88 of the filtration net 83, the foreign matters may not be removed from the micro through-holes 88 even by a lift force due to a difference in contact area between water and the foreign matters, and in this case, by closing the first valve 84 and opening the second valve 86, gas of a gas supply source reversely passes through the filtration net 83 via the gas supply pipe 85, and thereby, the filtration net 83 is cleaned, and through this process, the water processing filter 78 may continuously perform the filtration process without replacing or cleaning a filter.


A gas supply source coupled to the gas supply pipe 85 may supply air or inert gas through a separate blower, an upstream end of the gas supply pipe 85 may be coupled to ejection portions of the drying vacuum pump 63 for transporting gas generated from the filter assembly 400 to reversely clean the filtration net 83 with an ejection pressure of the drying vacuum pump 63.


The water processing filter 78 may be installed on a pipe of the ejection portion of the pump 75 as illustrated in FIG. 9 or may be installed inside the water tank 77 of an input portion of the pump 75 although not illustrated in FIG. 9.


A facility for forming one of a graphene-polymer resin composite and a carbon material-polymer resin composite according to the present disclosure configured as described above may effectively separate and discharge gas, water vapor, and so on from graphene, a carbon material, and a polymer resin to increase physical properties of the graphene-polymer resin composite or the carbon material-polymer resin composite, and harmful components generated in a process of forming the composite are effectively removed resulting in no adverse affection on surrounding environment.
