Ultrasonic spraying of nano-graphene oxide
In diverse fields such as energy storage devices, textiles, biomedicine, and corrosion protection, nano-graphene oxide, as a novel nano-carbon material with a unique two-dimensional sheet structure, has become a core material driving industrial technological innovation due to its ultra-high specific surface area, excellent thermal and electrical conductivity, good mechanical strength, and dispersibility. Nano-graphene oxide is an important derivative of graphene, combining the core advantages of graphene with the hydrophilicity of oxide groups. It is easily dispersed and processed, readily integrating into fibers, coatings, and other products. This not only enhances product performance but also expands its application boundaries, finding wide application in supercapacitor separators, antibacterial textiles, anti-corrosion coatings, and targeted therapy carriers. The spray coating process, a crucial step in the practical application of nano-graphene oxide, directly determines its sheet dispersion, coating uniformity, and performance. Chifei ultrasonic spray coating machines, with their core advantages of high precision, low damage, and high adaptability, perfectly meet the spray coating needs of nano-graphene oxide, providing core equipment support for its large-scale mass production and high-performance applications.
The structural characteristics and diverse application requirements of nano-graphene oxide place extremely stringent demands on the spraying process, with its performance being deeply intertwined with the quality of the coating. Nano-graphene oxide possesses a two-dimensional sheet structure; these sheets are thin and fragile, prone to aggregation and breakage. During spraying, it is crucial to avoid issues such as sheet aggregation, breakage, and uneven coating. The core spraying requirements focus on three main aspects: First, high uniformity coating, requiring precise control of coating thickness and distribution to adapt to different application scenarios, with a deviation ≤ ±0.05μm and uniformity exceeding 98%, avoiding defects such as pinholes and sheet accumulation, ensuring uniform dispersion of the nano-graphene oxide sheets, and fully leveraging its core properties such as thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, and antibacterial properties; Second, low… Damage adaptation is crucial. Nano-graphene oxide sheets are fragile, and the coating substrates include various types such as flexible fabrics, metal substrates, and medical carriers. Some substrates are not resistant to high pressure and high temperature. The entire coating process must be conducted under low pressure and without high temperature to avoid sheet breakage and substrate damage, while preserving the activity of its oxide groups. Thirdly, high cleanliness adaptation is essential, especially in medical and high-end energy storage fields. It must meet clean production standards to prevent the introduction of impurities, avoiding any impact on the biocompatibility and electrochemical performance of nano-graphene oxide, while ensuring strong adhesion between the coating and the substrate to prevent detachment.
Currently, in the field of nano-graphene oxide coating, traditional coating processes (air spraying, dip coating, and blade coating) have many shortcomings and are difficult to adapt to its structural characteristics and the needs of large-scale applications, becoming a bottleneck restricting the development of its industry. Air spraying relies on high-pressure airflow, which easily leads to damage and agglomeration of nano-graphene oxide sheets. Uneven droplet distribution results in inconsistent coating thickness, and high-pressure impact can damage flexible substrates. Furthermore, high-pressure airflow easily introduces impurities, affecting product performance. Dip coating has a material utilization rate of less than 40%, wasting large amounts of expensive nano-graphene oxide, and the sheets are prone to sedimentation, resulting in uneven coating performance and failing to meet the requirements of high-precision applications. Doctor blade coating is prone to sheet scratches and agglomeration, resulting in poor coating uniformity. It is only suitable for simple scenarios and cannot be adapted to flexible or irregularly shaped substrates, making large-scale mass production difficult.

Chifei ultrasonic spraying machines, addressing the characteristics and spraying pain points of nano-graphene oxide, rely on high-frequency atomization core technology and combine it with the key points of multi-field application processes to create customized solutions, completely breaking through the bottlenecks of traditional processes. The equipment converts industrial frequency electricity into a 40-150kHz high-frequency electrical signal via an ultrasonic generator. This signal is then converted into high-frequency mechanical vibration by a piezoelectric ceramic transducer. Utilizing the ultrasonic cavitation effect, the nano-graphene oxide dispersion is atomized into fine droplets of 0.01-3 microns, effectively deagglomerating sheet clusters and ensuring uniform dispersion of the nano-graphene oxide sheets, perfectly suited to its two-dimensional sheet structure. The atomization process is low-pressure and high-temperature-free throughout. The droplets are gently deposited on the substrate surface guided only by a small amount of carrier gas, preventing sheet breakage and substrate damage. This maximizes the preservation of the activity and core properties of the oxide groups, while precisely controlling the coating thickness and flexibly adjusting spraying parameters to adapt to the spraying needs of nano-graphene oxide with different concentrations and sheet sizes, meeting international material application requirements.
