The invention relates to the technical field of atomization, in particular to a structure of an atomizing core and a preparation method thereof.
Atomizers on the present market typically comprise a cotton atomizing core which is composed of a fiber wire or organic cotton and a heating coil. Since the cotton atomizing core is formed by winding cotton on the heating coil or wrapping the heating coil with cotton, the heating coil is not fixed on the cotton, and the cotton and the heating coil are not firmly combined with each other, so oil leakage and dry burning occur easily when the cotton atomizing core is used for atomization, which greatly affects user experience and shortens the service life of the cotton atomizing core. Structural support members of the cotton atomizing core, such as silicone plugs and silicone sleeves, have poor effect in preventing oil leakage and dry burning, and are low in strength, thus having a limited protective effect on the cotton core placed therein.
The technical issue to be solved by the invention is to provide a structure member of an atomizing core, which can better protect the atomizing core against oil leakage and dry burning, and a preparation method thereof.
The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the technical issue is to provide a structure member of an atomizing core, comprising, by mass, the following raw materials: 30-50 parts of main materials, 5-20 parts of low-melting point glass powder, 0-20 parts of carbon fibers, 0-20 parts of graphene, 0-30 parts of an additive, and 0-10 parts of a binder, wherein the number of parts of at least one of the carbon fibers, the graphene and the additive is not zero.
The main materials comprise at least one of alumina, bauxite and corundum; the additive is an aluminium dihydrogen phosphate solution with a mass fraction of 50%-95%.
Preferably, the granularity of the main materials is 200-2000 meshes.
Preferably, the granularity of the low-melting point glass powder is 80-600 meshes.
Preferably, the thickness of the graphene is 3 nm-9 nm.
Preferably, the granularity of the carbon fibers is 80-600 meshes.
Preferably, the binder is a solution with a mass fraction of 1%-10%, which is prepared from at least one of polyvinyl alcohol, maltodextrin, sodium polyacrylate, sodium carboxymethylcellulose and polyvinyl butyral.
Preferably, a solvent used for preparing the solution is water.
The present invention further provides a preparation method of the structure of an atomizing core, characterized by comprising the following steps:
Preferably, during mixing granulation in s1, the additive and the binder are dropwise added.
Preferably, in S2, the pressure for dry-press forming is 0.1 MPa-10 MPa, and the pressure is held for 0-5 min.
Preferably, the preform is dried at 90° C.-150° C. before being sintered.
According to the structure member of an atomizing core, the structure member can be formed by low-temperature sintering through the coordination of the raw materials such as the main materials and the additive. Adding of the carbon fibers and/or graphene can improve the compactness and bending strength of the structure member. The structure of an atomizing core is a ceramic structure member, which, compared with existing silicone structure member, has micro-pores and high strength, can effectively prevent oil leakage and dry burning when the atomizing core is used for atomization, and can protect a cotton core mounted therein; and the structure member is easy to prepare, low in cost, and easy to form.
The invention will be further described below in conjunction with accompanying drawings and embodiments. In the drawings:
The invention provides a structure member of an atomizing core, which comprises, by mass, the following raw materials: 30-50 parts of main materials, 5-20 parts of low-melting point glass powder, 0-20 parts of carbon fibers, 0-20 parts of graphene, 0-30 parts of an additive, and 0-10 parts of a binder.
Wherein, the number of parts of at least one of the carbon fibers, the graphene and the additive is not zero; when the number of parts of the carbon fibers is not zero, the number of parts of the carbon fibers may be 3-20; when the number of parts of the graphene is not zero, the number of parts of the graphene may be 3-20; when the number of parts of the additive is not zero, the number of parts of the additive may be 5-30.
Specifically, in the raw materials of the structure member of the atomizing core, the main materials may comprise at least one of alumina, bauxite and corundum.
The binder is a solution prepared from at least one of polyvinyl alcohol, maltodextrin, sodium polyacrylate, sodium carboxymethylcellulose and polyvinyl butyral, and the mass fraction of the binder is 1%-10%. Corresponding to these materials, a solvent for preparing the solution is water, preferably distilled water.
In the aspect of granularity selection, the granularity of the main materials is 200-2000 meshes, the granularity of the low-melting point glass powder is 80-600 meshes, and the granularity of the carbon fibers is 80-600 meshes. The thickness of the graphene is 3 nm-9 nm.
In the invention, the additive is aluminium dihydrogen phosphate solution, which has a mass fraction of 50%-95%, preferably 90%.
By adding carbon fibers and/or graphene to the structure member of an atomizing core, the bending strength of the structure member is improved. Wherein, the graphene may be mixed with main material particles to wrap and intertwine the main material particles to form an anchoring mechanism, and the carbon fibers can improve the tenacity of the structure member. The aluminium dihydrogen phosphate, used as the binder, can also improve the strength of the structure member mainly because phosphoric acid or phosphate can react with the alumina, or alumina in the bauxite to form thermo-setting tridymite and cristobalite-like aluminium phosphate, which can improve the strength.
A preparation method of the structure member of an atomizing core comprises the following steps:
The preform is sintered in an air atmosphere, a vacuum atmosphere, or an inert gas atmosphere. The structure of an atomizing core obtained after sintering has certain compactness and strength.
According to the preparation method,
When the structure member of an atomizing core is prepared, a mold with a mold cavity of a corresponding shape as actually needed can be used for dry-pressing, such that the preform formed by dry-pressing corresponds to a structure member of the actually desired shape, and the structure member of the desired shape, such as a structure member of a circular cylinder shape or a structure member of a polygonal cylinder shape, can be formed after sintering.
When the structure member of an atomizing core is used, a liquid absorbent (such as a cotton core) with a heating coil is disposed in the interior of the structure member to form an integral atomizing core.
