|
PURPOSE
The technology allows to obtain ribbon-type air desiccants for use in modern pneumoautomatic vehicles systems. Smart desiccant has high moisture absorption properties owning to the use of flexible alumina ceramic nanofiber array when forming highly developed internal surface of the plate.
The technological processes for obtaining the morphology of desiccants with ceramic alumina nanofibers were developed. The lab tests of experimental samples were conducted.
TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
| Nanofiber dimensions: | |
| - diameter, nm | 20 |
| - length, µm | no more 10 |
| Nanofiber amount per 1 сm2 | no more 3110 |
| Internal nanofiber surface square per 1 сm2, сm2 | no more 46.2 |
ADVANTAGES
- innovative and eco-friendly manufacture technology;
- one-piece desiccant with a developed geometric shape (sheets, tubes);
- possessing analogue-like absorption capacity at smaller dimensions of the smart desiccant;
- thermal stability, increased mechanical durability, flexibility, and wear resistance;
- can be processed at low temperatures (120-140 °С) in a short time.
APPLICATION AREAS
- pneumoautomatic systems of vehicles and construction equipment;
- technological air conditioning systems;
- compressed air purification and dehumidification systems.
COOPERATION FORMS
Commercialization of technology, as well as information and technology support. Joint research projects, expert consultations, training of personnel.
