Vim li cas 316 Stainless Hlau Sheath Hluav Taws Xob Hluav Taws Xob Hluav Taws Xob Hluav Taws Xob nrog Boron-Ntxiv Internal Dielectric Fillers tiv thaiv AC Leakage tam sim no degradation nyob rau hauv siab -Humidity Enclosures Ntau dua Standard Magnesium Oxide Fillers?

Closed, high-humidity situations where electric heating tubes can fail due to a mechanism that is not connected to external sheath corrosion include outdoor control cabinets, marine engine rooms and food processing equipment washdown zones. Over time the internal electrical insulation between the resistance heating wire and the metal sheath breaks down due to moisture migrating via terminal seals or microscopic sheath flaws. Standard compacted magnesium oxide (MgO) filler has good thermal conductivity and dielectric strength when dry, but is hygroscopic. MgO readily absorbs moisture from the atmosphere producing magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2) on the particle surface which causes the electrical resistivity to drop from the required >100 MΩ mus rau qis dua 1 MΩ uas ua rau muaj kev cuam tshuam ntawm cov xau tam sim no thiab ua kom muaj kev tiv thaiv hauv av. Ntawm lawv, boron - muaj cov additives, uas yog boron oxide (B 2 O 3 ) los yog magnesium borate (Mg 3 B 2 O 6 ), paub tias chemically hnov ​​​​mob nrog dej kom tsim tau ib qho chaw ruaj khov, tsis yog - hygroscopic hydrated borate txheej uas seals cov particle nto 5% ntawm cov dej noo ntxiv. Kab lus no qhia txog cov dej noo nqus kinetics thiab hluav taws xob degradation tsis kam ntawm boron- hloov MgO fillers txheeb ze rau tus qauv MgO hauv 316 stainless hlau sheaths nyob rau hauv 40-60℃thiab 95% txheeb ze humidity ib puag ncig, muab kev taw qhia ntawm kev xaiv muab tub lim rau siab - kev ntseeg siab.

Hygroscopic Action ntawm Standard Magnesium Oxide Filler nyob rau hauv kaw cua sov Tubes
The compacted MgO filler in electric heating tubes has three functions: electrical insulation between the center wire and the sheath, thermal conduction from the resistance wire to the sheath, and mechanical support to preserve wire concentricity. Commercial MgO includes 96 to 99 percent MgO with small amounts of impurities such as calcium oxide (CaO), silicon dioxide (SiO₂) and iron oxides. The surface of MgO particles may rapidly chemisorb water vapour, which results in a coating of Mg(OH)2 on the surface MgO + H2O Mg(OH)2 (reaction 1). This process is exothermic and will proceed even at relative humidities as low as 30-40%. After formation, Mg(OH) 2 exhibits two problematic properties. Its electrical resistivity is ~10 6 -10 8 Ω.cm as compared to >10 14 Ω.cm for dry MgO. It also deliquesces at relative humidities >75-80%, uas ua rau tsim cov kev daws teeb meem txuas rau cov cua sov hlau thiab cov ntaub qhwv.

Nyob rau hauv ib lub raj cua kub nrog unbreaked davhlau ya nyob twg seals lub internal muab tub lim tseem qhuav mus ib txhis. Hauv kev xyaum, txawm li cas los xij, cov ntsaws ruaj ruaj (feem ntau yog silicone roj hmab lossis epoxy) deteriorate nyob rau hauv tshav kub cycling thiab UV raug, thiab microcracks 10-100 micrometers dav yog tsim. Cov kab nrib pleb no tso cai rau huab cua nkag mus. Thaum cov dej noo mus txog MgO muab tub lim, qhov kev tiv thaiv degradation ua raws li txheej txheem 3-theem. Theem ib: deg hydroxylation ntawm txheej MgO particle txheej, nce to tam sim no los ntawm 10-100. Kauj Ruam 2: Ua kom cov dej sab hauv nrog qhov o uas tuaj yeem tawg lub plhaub los ntawm lub siab sab hauv. Kauj Ruam 3: tsim cov kab hluav taws xob hluav taws xob los ntawm cov cua sov xaim mus rau hauv lub tsho, ua rau hauv av txhaum tam sim no ntau dua 5-10 mA thiab tripping residual tam sim no cov cuab yeej (RCDs). Cov ntaub ntawv pov thawj los ntawm cov khoom siv hluav taws xob sab nraum zoov tau lees paub tias IR ntawm 316 sheaths nrog cov pa MgO filling poob qis dua 1 MΩ tom qab 6-18 lub hlis hauv cov xwm txheej nrog 95% RH.

Boron Additive Mechanism: Tshuaj Sealing ntawm MgO Particles
Peb tab tom ntxiv cov boron tebchaw rau MgO muab tub lim los tsim ib tus kheej - txwv tsis pub hydration barrier siv boric acid chemistry. Boron hom nyiam adsorb thawj monolayer ntawm dej thiab hnov ​​​​mob los tsim cov txheej nyias ntawm hydrated boron oxide (H3BO3 lossis B2O3·3H2O) ntawm qhov chaw nyob thaum B2O3 lossis magnesium borate yog tov nrog MgO ntawm 2-5 wt %. Peb qhov tseem ceeb ntawm cov hydrated txheej no yog: Ua ntej, nws qhov sib npaug vapor siab ntawm cov dej qis dua li ntawm Mg (OH) 2, yog li nws tsim sai thiab tag nrho ua ntej muaj txiaj ntsig MgO hydration. Qhov thib ob, cov amorphous, nruam hydrated borate daim ntawv tag nrho encases txhua MgO particle. Thib peb, zaj duab xis yog ruaj khov thiab tsis yog -hygroscopic saum 60{18}}80℃- qhov kub thiab txias tau ntsib los ntawm muab tub lim rau hauv lub raj cua kub ua haujlwm (feem ntau yog 150-300℃nyob ze ntawm lub xaim, tab sis nqes mus rau 50-100℃nyob ze ntawm lub plhaub thaum lub sijhawm tawm mus).

Thaum tsim, lub borate txheej tiv thaiv dej los ntawm diffusing ntxiv mus rau hauv lub hauv paus MgO. Cov tshuaj tiv thaiv yog tus kheej txwv raws li cov yeeb yaj kiab tuab (feem ntau 50-200 nm) nres loj hlob thaum tag nrho cov boron nkag tau ntawm qhov chaw particle tau tshwm sim. Tsis zoo li Mg(OH)2, uas loj hlob mus rau sab hauv raws li dej diffuses los ntawm hydroxide txheej, borate zaj duab xis muaj tsawg dej diffusivity (kwv yees . 10-14} cm2/s ntawm 50℃vs . 10-10 cm2/s rau Mg(OH)2). Qhov kinetic barrier no ua rau lub sij hawm kom muaj hluav taws xob tawg los ntawm qhov zoo ntawm 10-50 rau tib yam dej noo nkag mus.
