Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to a method for producing an aluminium strip, in which the aluminium strip is coated with a sorption layer which has a binder and a sorbent. In addition, the invention relates to a correspondingly coated aluminium strip and to its advantageous use.
- Sorption rotors are used, for example, for dehumidifying air and have a number of thin channels, similar to a honeycomb structure, which are coated with sorbents. In this way, a surface coated with sorbents which is as large as possible can be provided. The sorbent now takes up water vapour, for example, by adsorption or absorption from the air flowing through the air channels. This continues until the sorbent is saturated and has to be regenerated. The regeneration is carried out using a rotating dehumidifier by the air channels, at least in one area, being flowed through with heated, dry air. The rotating dehumidifier rotates slowly for this purpose. The air channels then uninterruptedly pass through usually three sectors, in which in the first sector, for example, the air to be dehumidified, for example the supply air to a building, flows through the air channels and is dehumidified. In the second sector, the sorbent is regenerated by blowing in dry air with a temperature of 20 to 120° C., i.e. the moisture is extracted from the sorbent again. In the third and optional sector, the air channels are cleansed, so that they can be used again properly. However, a simpler design with just two sectors, one for dehumidifying the air and one for regenerating the sorbent, is also possible. Corresponding rotating dehumidifiers and their sorption rotors often have air channels which are provided in the form of folded paper. As the durability of these sorption rotors is low, producers are switching over to aluminium strips to produce the sorption rotors. For this purpose, the aluminium strip is coated, cut and formed so that it is undulated, with the result that channels can be provided by means of the undulating form. The aluminium strip was until now coated in the dipping process with a subsequent dispersing process to apply the sorption layer. This process is, however, really elaborate and expensive. Attempts have also been made to coat the aluminium strip in the coil-coating process, i.e. by using applicator rolls. In this cost-effective process for coating, however, problems arose with the adhesion of the sorption layer on the aluminium and also highly erratic performance characteristics in the finished, coated aluminium strip with respect to the sorption capacity, for example of water vapour. The binder wetting the sorbent particularly proved to be a problem.
- Taking this as the starting point, the present invention is based on the object of proposing a method for producing an aluminium strip coated with a sorption layer, by means of which an aluminium strip can be coated cost-effectively having constant performance characteristics with respect to the sorption of, for example, water vapour. In addition, the invention is based on the object of proposing an aluminium strip coated according to the invention and its advantageous use.
- The object disclosed above is achieved according to the invention by means of a method for producing an aluminium strip coated with a sorption layer by applying a suspension to the aluminium strip in the coil-coating process, which, in addition to a liquid, comprises at least one binder, formed as a solid, and a sorbent, and by subjecting the aluminium strip together with the applied suspension to a drying process, in which the binder is activated.
- Using a suspension, which consists of a liquid, usually water, at least one binder, formed as a solid, and a sorbent, means that during the coil-coating process the suspension can behave like a liquid and the aluminium strip can be coated very evenly with the suspension, without the sorbent being wetted through the binder or the pores of the sorbent being closed by the binder. The suspension which is now evenly distributed on the aluminium strip contains the binder, which is still not activated, and the sorbent which is also very evenly distributed over the aluminium strip. The aluminium strip then passes through a drying process, in which the binder is activated and the liquid in the suspension evaporated.
- Only activating the binder during the drying process, means that extremely thin layers of the binder can be applied to the aluminium strip and the sorbent is only minimally wetted through the binder, without the adhesive properties of the binder being impaired. Preferably, the binder formed as a solid can, for example, be a polymer. As a result, the aluminium strip produced in this way has particularly homogenous performance characteristics with respect to the sorption properties and, at the same time, can be produced in a very economical form.
- Preferably, the drying process takes place at temperatures of 60° C. to 380° C. These temperatures are usually sufficient to activate the binder formed as a solid. By activating the binder it is understood, according to the invention, that the binder is converted into a state in which it produces a bonding between the sorbent and the aluminium strip. This is achieved with polymeric binders, for example, by liquefying the solid particles and curing these liquefied solid particles during drying and/or during cooling after the drying.
- According to a further advantageous embodiment of the method according to the invention, zeolites or silica gels are used as sorbents, since these are cost-effective and have particularly good sorption properties, for example with respect to water vapour. In addition, it is also possible for lithium chloride to be used as a sorbent.
- If the binder was produced by suspension polymerisation and/or suspension copolymerisation, the binder formed as a solid is present in the suspension in the form of spheres, i.e., in suspension polymerised form. The binder spheres can be broken up by heating during the drying process, so that the binder molecules held there can get caught up together and form a particularly thin binder layer which binds the particles of the sorbent, for example the silica gel particles or the zeolite particles, without wetting the surface thereof. In addition, by using the binder in the form of spheres, the binder can be particularly homogenously distributed, even if the solids content of the binder in the suspension is very low.
- Particularly good properties with regard to adhesion to the aluminium strip and binding of the sorbent are obtained by the binder containing a mixture of acrylate copolymer and styrene copolymer, a mixture of polyvinyl acetate polymers and copolymers, polyvinyl acetals, polyvinyl alcohols, polyvinyl ethers, polyurethane and/or polymethacrylate homopolymers and copolymers. The binders referred to can all be produced in suspension polymerised form and in the activated form exhibit very good adhesive properties for the sorbent on the aluminium strip. The wetting of the sorbent is slight with these materials with a narrow binder layer thickness.
- In order to specifically set the sorption properties of the aluminium strip, the solids content of the sorbents in the suspension is between 5% and 90%. Particularly high performance characteristics were obtained with solids contents of more than 70%. A higher content of more than 90% of sorbents involves the risk of the adhesive properties being impaired due to the content of binders being too low.
- If polyvinyl alcohols, polyacrylates and/or polyvinyl butyrals are added as additives to the preferably aqueous suspension, the sorption effect of the sorption layer of the aluminium strip can be further optimised, since by adding the additives additional binding sites can be made available for the sorbent particles and hence the solids content of the sorbent can be further increased.
- Preferably, silver nanoparticles are integrated into the coating system, so that the aluminium strip has an anti-bacterial effect with the sorption layer. To that end, the silver nanoparticles are applied to the aluminium strip in the suspension. It is also thereby possible to obtain other specific properties with the sorption layer by adding other functional constituents to the suspension.
- According to a further exemplary embodiment, the surface of the aluminium strip is pre-treated, preferably chromated, before the coating process. This improves the adhesive properties of the binder and the corrosion properties of the aluminium strip.
- For an aluminium strip, the above disclosed object is achieved by coating it on one side using a method according to the invention and by the aluminium strip having a thickness of 0.03 mm to 0.6 mm, preferably 0.06 mm to 0.2 mm. Corresponding aluminium strips can not only be particularly economically coated with a sorbent but can also be easily manufactured into sorption rotors. For this purpose, the aluminium strips must be correspondingly cut to size, formed so that they are undulated, and coiled.
- According to a further exemplary embodiment of the aluminium strip according to the invention, it has been shown that particularly high performance characteristics can be obtained for the sorption by the thickness of the sorption coating being 2 to 30 g/m2, preferably 5 to 8 g/m2. These layer thicknesses resulted in optimum adhesive properties with maximum sorption characteristics.
- If, according to a subsequent exemplary embodiment of the aluminium strip according to the invention, the aluminium strip consists of an EN AW 8006 or EN AW 8011 type aluminium alloy, the aluminium strips possess particularly good strength values, so that the particularly narrow thicknesses can be easily worked. For example, corresponding aluminium strips have a yield point of more than 180 MPa and a tensile strength of more than 250 MPa and therefore possess optimum working properties for producing sorption rotors. Optionally, a previously pre-treated, preferably chromated, aluminium strip can be coated with sorbents, so that the adhesive and corrosion properties are improved.
- Finally, using an aluminium strip coated according to the invention for producing heat exchangers, circulating heat exchangers, in particular sorption rotors and active dehumidifying devices, is particularly advantageous, since here particularly large surfaces coated with sorbents are required, which can be economically provided by the method according to the invention and the coated aluminium strips produced using this method. Particularly thin aluminium strips having a thickness of 0.03 mm to 0.6 mm enable particularly compact sorption rotors and dehumidifying devices to be constructed.
- There are now many possibilities for developing and refining the method according to the invention for producing aluminium strips coated with sorbents, the aluminium strip according to the invention and its use. Reference is made, in this regard, to the claims subordinate to claim 1, on the one hand, and to the description of exemplary embodiments in conjunction with the drawing. In the drawing:

The temperatures during the drying process are at most 60° C. to 300° C. on the metal surface, i.e. the PMT (peak metal temperature) is between 60° C. and 300° C. Then, thealuminium strip 1, preferably in the cooled state, is coiled on a coiler 5. Of course, it is also possible, after the drying process, to convey the aluminium strip directly to further production processes, for example a process for producing blanks, a process for separating the strip into widths to be used, for example, for sorption rotors and/or a process for forming the aluminium strip so that it is undulated. - According to the invention, the binder formed as a solid is only activated during the drying process and can be distributed over the suspension in correspondingly narrow layer thicknesses on the
aluminium strip 1. Particularly narrow binder layer thicknesses are hereby possible which result in minimal wetting of the sorbent surface by the binder. In this respect, a maximum sorbent surface is made available on the aluminium strip. - This becomes clear in
FIGS. 2 a-c. Thealuminium strip 1 in the exemplary embodiment illustrated inFIG. 2 , has, for example, achromate coating 6 which improves the adhesive properties and the corrosion properties of thealuminium strip 1. By means of a coil-coating process 3 using applicator rolls, asuspension 7, comprising aliquid 8, preferably water, abinder 9, formed as a solid, and thesorbent 10, is now applied to the strip. In the exemplary embodiment illustrated inFIG. 2 b,silver nanoparticles 11 are also additionally contained in the suspension, which create an anti-bacterial effect on the aluminium strip surface after the drying process. AsFIG. 2 b shows, thebinder 9 in thesuspension 7 is initially not activated and is preferably present as a solid in the form of spheres, finely distributed on the aluminium strip. The form in the shape of spheres is obtained, for example, by suspension polymerisation and/or suspension copolymerisation of a mixture of acrylate and styrene polymers. -
FIG. 2 c now shows thealuminium strip 1 in a sectional view after the drying process. During the drying process, not only is thewater 8 in thesuspension 7 evaporated but also thebinder 9 is activated by the spherical binder particles bursting open during the drying process and leaving behind an extremelythin binder layer 9 on thealuminium strip 1. Thesilver nanoparticles 11 are distributed in thebinder layer 9 and partly lie on the surface between thesorbent particles 10 and bring about an anti-bacterial effect. -
FIG. 3 shows a microscopic surface image of an aluminium strip coated according to the invention. In the exemplary embodiment inFIG. 3 , a mixture of acrylate copolymer and styrene copolymer was used as the binder and silica gel as the sorbent. It can be clearly identified that thebinder 9 only wets the sorbent 10 a little, so that the sorption capacity of thesorbent 10 is only very slightly impaired. As a result, aluminium strips with a very high sorption capacity can be provided. - These are, for example, employed in
sorption rotors 12, the workings of which are illustrated in the perspective view inFIG. 4 . Asorption rotor 12 usually consists of a flat cylinder which has air channels distributed in concentric passages. The air channels, in the exemplary embodiment illustrated inFIG. 4 , are produced from a correspondingly coiled, undulatedaluminium strip 1. Preferably, the aluminium strips are about 0.07 mm thick and correspondingly undulated. - The slowly rotating
sorption rotor 12 is exposed toair 14, heated via aheating device 13, in at least one sector, so that the sorption layer present on thealuminium strip 1 is regenerated in the areas flowed through with hot air, i.e., so that the moisture contained in the sorbent is extracted as a result of the heated air which usually has a temperature of 20 to 120° C. The air channels regenerated in such a way are then rotated by the slow rotation of the sorption rotor into the second sector in which they are, for example, flowed through by moistoutside air 15. Thesorbent 10 takes up the moisture contained in theoutside air 15, so that the inflowingair 16 is dried.Sorption rotors 12, which comprise the aluminium strip according to the invention, exhibit high performance characteristics with respect to the uptake of moisture from the air, if, for example, silica gels or zeolites are used as sorbents. The required aluminium strips can also be produced economically by means of the method according to the invention. - Finally,
FIG. 5 shows the structure of asorption rotor 12 and the undulated course of analuminium strip 1 coated according to the invention in the sorption rotor. Thealuminium strip 1, which is formed so that it is undulated, is arranged between concentrically arranged, circular aluminium passages, so thatair channels 17 are formed. Preferably, the aluminium strips 1 used in thesorption rotor 12 are coated on both sides, in order to maximise the sorption capacity of the sorption rotor.
