Publish Time: 2025-03-03
As an important inorganic material, ultrafine sodium sulfate powder has broad application prospects in the field of composite materials. However, due to its small particle size and high surface energy, it is easy to agglomerate, which affects its dispersibility and adaptability in composite materials. In order to improve the adaptability of ultrafine sodium sulfate powder in composite materials, surface modification technology came into being.

The purpose of surface modification is to improve or change the surface properties of powder particles, thereby improving its dispersibility, durability and compatibility in composite materials. For ultrafine sodium sulfate powder, surface modification technology can effectively solve its agglomeration problem, making it easier to disperse evenly in composite materials, thereby improving the overall performance of composite materials.

In the process of surface modification, commonly used methods include surface coating modification, surface chemical modification and precipitation reaction modification. Surface coating modification is to deposit one or more layers of substances on the surface of ultrafine sodium sulfate powder to form a coating layer, thereby changing its surface properties. This method can effectively reduce the surface energy of the powder, reduce agglomeration, and increase the compatibility between the powder and the composite matrix.

Surface chemical modification is to change the chemical composition of the surface of ultrafine sodium sulfate powder through chemical reaction, introduce new functional groups or chemical bonds, and thus change its surface properties. This method can not only improve the dispersibility of the powder, but also give it new chemical properties, such as drug resistance, light resistance, heat resistance, etc.

Precipitation reaction modification is to add a precipitant to the solution containing ultrafine sodium sulfate powder to make it undergo a precipitation reaction, thereby forming a layer of precipitate on the surface of the powder. This layer of precipitate can effectively change the surface properties of the powder and improve its dispersibility and compatibility.

In the process of surface modification, it is crucial to select a suitable surface modifier and modification process. The selection of surface modifiers should be based on the surface properties of ultrafine sodium sulfate powder and the properties of the composite matrix to ensure that the modified powder has good compatibility and interfacial bonding between the matrix. At the same time, the modification process should be simple and controllable, and be able to achieve uniform coating and modification of the powder.

Through surface modification technology, the adaptability of ultrafine sodium sulfate powder in composite materials has been significantly improved. The modified powder not only has better dispersibility, but also has enhanced compatibility with the composite matrix. This helps to improve the overall performance of the composite material, such as mechanical properties, heat resistance, chemical stability, etc. Therefore, surface modification technology has important promotion value and application prospects in the application of ultrafine sodium sulfate powder.
