Abstract: Carbon black with an OAN, measured on the beaded carbon black, of less than 120 ml/100 g. A process for the preparation of the carbon black is described, wherein a salt solution is converted into an aerosol and this is then introduced into the carbon black formation zone. The carbon black can be used in inks, paints, lacquers, printing inks and ink-jet inks, and for coloring plastics.

Abstract: The invention relates to a carbon black having an aggregate size distribution which has a (d90-d10)/d50 ratio of less than or equal to 1.1. The carbon blacks are produced by admixing hot air if desired to a gas mixture comprising a carrier gas and a carbon black feedstock, passing the gas mixture into a burner pipe, burning the gas mixture at the burner pipe openings, and drawing the flames under suction, together with the ambient air drawn in freely under suction from the outside, through a cooled, narrowing gap, and carrying out cooling, the cooled, narrowing gap having a height (h) to width (b) ratio of 1-100, the width (b) being 0.5 to 10 mm, and the flow rate at the narrowest point of the gap being 10-200 m/s. The carbon blacks of the invention can be used as non-reinforcing filler, reinforcing filler, UV stabilizer, conductive black, pigment or reducing agent.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for producing post-treated carbon black, where the carbon black is fluidized in the fluidized bed while adding fluidizing agents and brought into contact with a post-treatment agent.

Abstract: A method for producing carbon black or other flame aerosols, comprising the following steps: the heat is removed from the flame by dissipation and/or radiation; a thin gas boundary layer is formed; the flow formed by the flame and the gas boundary layer is accelerated or expanded; the obtained aerosol is withdrawn; and the cooling surface is cleaned. The invention further relates to a device for carrying out such a method and a black carbon having a maximum pH value of 6.0, a maximum ignition residue of 0.1 percent, and a maximum 5 ?m screening refuse of 200 ppm. The inventive black carbon can be used in rubber, plastic, bitumen, concrete, and other construction materials.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to carbon black granules containing a sorbitan triester. In addition, a process for the production of these carbon black granules is described, in which a powdered carbon black or beaded carbon black is beaded with a sorbitan triester.

Abstract: A process for the production of modified carbon black, in which a carbon black dispersion containing carbon black, water and wetting agent, is mixed with an acid, aqueous solution or suspension of a primary amine and then reacted with sodium nitrite solution.

Abstract: Aqueous carbon black dispersions contain carbon black and cationic and non-ionic surfactants in addition to water. The dispersions are produced by dispersing the carbon black and the other components in water with bead mills, ultrasonic mills or an Ultra Turrax mixer. The dispersions can be used to produce inks, lacquers and printing inks.

Abstract: An oxidatively aftertreated carbon black has a content of volatile constituents of more than 10 wt. %, based on its total weight, and the ratio of its CTAB surface area to the iodine adsorption number is greater than 2 m2/mg. The carbon black may be a channel black oxidatively aftertreated with ozone. The carbon black according to the invention is used preferably as pigment carbon black for the production of water-based paints, printing inks and as inks for mechanical and manual recording and drawing instruments. The combination of properties imparts to the carbon black an excellent dispersibility in water-based binder systems. The paints, printing inks and printer inks produced from this carbon black have an outstanding stability in storage.
