Study on the Effect of Sodium Polyacrylate and Its Compounds on Artificial Warm Fog Dissipation

摘要

Sodium polyacrylate as a kind of high absorbent resin, has an excellent water absorption performance, is low in price and isn't corrosive. Compounds of different particle sizes and components were prepared using sodium polyacrylate and sodium chloride. They were used in the fog chamber to disperse warm fog respectively then. Experiments were carried out to investigate how particle size and composition affect the warm fog dissipation. Results as follows are obtained: the time light transmittance recovers to 60% (t_(60%)) is 85min when the fog dissipates naturally; 30g sodium polyacrylate whose average size is 30μm has a good effect on warm fog dissipation, t_(60%) being 14min; when the sodium polyacrylate and sodium chloride are mixed by 1:2 in mass ratio, the fog elimination effect is the best, with t_(60%) 6min. The reasons are analyzed at the same time.
