Definitions
- the present invention relates to a process for emulsifying a hydrophobic or viscous hydrophilic phase, in particular useful for preparing concentrated and calibrated emulsions in bitumen and also relates to the emulsions thus obtained.
- Emulsions, concentrated in highly viscous hydrophobic compound (s) are used in particular in the field of coatings, for example in the road industry. Indeed, emulsions represent an attractive alternative to the problem of spreading bitumen on roadways. In the traditional technique, pure bitumen is implemented hot which is expensive and can be dangerous for site personnel. When the bitumen is emulsified in water, the material obtained is perfectly fluid at room temperature, which allows its implementation without difficulty.
- Emulsions concentrated in highly viscous hydrophobic compounds are also used in the adhesive industry via emulsion adhesives based on rosin esters.
- Emulsions, concentrated in viscous hydrophilic compound (s) are more particularly used in the food and pharmaceutical industries.
- bitumen the corresponding emulsions are currently prepared by hot injection.
- the bitumen is heated to a temperature above 120 ° C and the continuous phase, generally water, is heated to around 60 ° C.
- the mixture of bitumen and aqueous phase is injected into a turbine under very high stirring speed, of the order of 5000 revolutions per minute and under a pressure which can range up to 3 atmospheres.
- bitumen emulsions are generally obtained having a concentration not exceeding 70% by weight of bitumen, a large average droplet size (typically greater than
- bitumen emulsions currently available are not satisfactory in terms of monodispersity.
- the size of the bitumen droplets present in these emulsions is generally greater than 5 microns and very heterogeneous.
- the storage stability and rupture of this type of emulsion prove to be difficult to control and the coatings which result therefrom are insufficiently homogeneous. It is clear that this is detrimental in terms of the processing of the emulsions and the final mechanical quality of the corresponding coatings.
- the object of the present invention is precisely to propose a process making it possible to prepare emulsions which are concentrated in a very viscous phase like bitumen and also calibrated.
- the emulsification mode according to the invention is original in that it makes it possible to manufacture “water in oil” type emulsions or
- oil in water very concentrated by directly mixing the two phases in laminar shear regime. It therefore clearly differs from conventional emulsification processes, such as that mentioned above, which operate in turbulent conditions. It also differs from conventional laminar emulsification techniques which proceed by progressive incorporation of a first phase to be emulsified in a second phase or vice versa.
- the present invention therefore has for first object a process useful for emulsifying a first hydrophobic or hydrophilic phase and of viscosity between 1 and 5000 Pa.s or higher with a second phase immiscible with said first phase characterized in that it provides in use "- if necessary, a preliminary treatment of said first phase to be emulsified so as to adjust its viscosity to a value less than 5000 Pa.s.,
- said phase to a second phase immiscible with said first phase, in the presence of at least one surfactant and - mixing them under shear in laminar regime until a stable emulsion is obtained and wherein said first phase is present in an amount of 75 to 95% by weight.
- the emulsion obtained at the end of the claimed process in fact has the appearance of a viscoelastic paste.
- it proves to be redispersible despite a high concentration in one of its phases. It can therefore be diluted so as to adapt the concentration of the final emulsion to the requirements of the intended application.
- the emulsion obtained according to the invention has a very tight particle size distribution and the average diameter of its droplets can be easily controlled by means of the shearing speed or by formulation parameters, and more particularly the concentration in the second phase, also known as the diluent phase.
- the subject of the present invention is also a process useful for preparing a concentrated and calibrated emulsion in a hydrophobic or hydrophilic phase and with a viscosity of between 1 and 5000 Pa. S or higher comprising
- phase prior treatment of said phase to be emulsified so as to adjust its viscosity to a value less than 5,000 Pa.s, the addition at one time of said phase to a second phase, immiscible with said first phase, in the presence of at least one surfactant and
- the size of the droplets of said first phase is controlled at within said emulsion by adjusting the concentration in the second phase for a given shear rate and a concentration of surfactant.
- the droplet size of the first phase decreases when the shear rate and / or the concentration of surfactant increase.
- the size of the droplets does not change monotonically with the amount of the second phase: the size first decreases and then increases when the amount of the second phase increases.
- the critical volume is the volume for which the diameter of the droplets is minimal. This appreciation of the critical volume is of course carried out for a given shear rate and a concentration of surfactant.
- the emulsion has an average droplet diameter of less than 2 microns, which is a relatively smaller size than that obtained according to conventional emulsification methods.
- polydispersity it is less than 40% against for example more than 100% for " conventional bitumen emulsions.
- This polydispersity is expressed according to the Laser Coulter LS 230 particle size analyzer and corresponds to the standard deviation of the distribution divided by the average diameter obtained (Documentation Coulter LS 230 page B-5).
- the shear applied to the mixture is a laminar shear and is therefore adjusted so that the stirring mobile turns at low speed. This regime is characterized in that it has a low number from Reynolds.
- L is a characteristic length which can be assimilated in the claimed process, to the air gap between the agitation mobile and the wall of the reactor, and ⁇ is the average viscosity of the emulsion
- the laminar regime is characterized in that it has a low Reynolds number, less than around 1000. Beyond this value, the regime becomes turbulent.
- the regime becomes turbulent.
- a Reynolds number, Re of 0.06 which clearly shows that the shear regime applied to emulsions is laminar.
- the stirring speed varies between 100 and 1000 revolutions per minute (corresponding to a shear rate of between approximately 250 and 2500 s "1 ) and more preferably is of the order of 400 to 500 revolutions per minute
- stirrers such as flexible grids, propellers, paddle stirrers are particularly adapted in the context of the present invention.
- the emulsification is carried out at ambient temperature and pressure.
- certain compounds whose viscosity is greater than 5 are particularly preferred.
- said first hydrophobic or hydrophilic phase is or comprises at least one hydrophobic or hydrophilic compound.
- it may comprise a mixture of several compounds of either hydrophilic or hydrophobic character and in a diluted or undiluted form.
- This hydrophobic or hydrophilic phase is in all cases characterized by a very high viscosity, of the order of 1 to 5000 Pa.s or higher. It has the appearance of a very viscous liquid, therefore particularly difficult to emulsify.
- hydrophobic materials such as in particular rosin esters (adhesive industry), lanolin " (cosmetics), bitumens, waxes (cosmetics, cleaning products, etc.), low molecular weight polybutadienes or hydrophilic compounds such as, in particular, polyethylene glycol , sugars, gelatins (agar-agar, carrageenans, ...) (food industry, pharmacy) and their mixtures.
- a pretreatment preferably consisting of a heating operation combined, if necessary, with mechanical agitation (faster homogenization of the temperature within of the viscous phase).
- this heating is more particularly necessary when said first phase has a viscosity at room temperature such that it opposes its flow and / or its pumping.
- the viscoelastic paste obtained can be diluted in the hours following its preparation and preferably immediately after its preparation so as to limit the instabilities (coalescence) that may result from evaporation.
- the second phase it can be either aqueous or oily.
- this oil can be either mineral, vegetable or animal.
- mineral oil it is in particular possible to propose parrafinic, naphthenic oils or their mixtures.
- the surfactants used according to the invention can be chosen from all the categories of surfactants (anionic, cationic, nonionic, amphoteric, etc.). They can be chosen from the surfactants conventionally used in the emulsification processes, of said first phase considered. They are of course selected taking into account the type of emulsion, viscous hydrophobic phase in aqueous phase or viscous hydrophilic phase in the oily phase, which it is envisaged to prepare according to the invention.
- HLB hydrophilic / lipophilic balance
- the surfactants are used in the process according to the invention in a reduced amount and preferably varying between 0.5% and 5% by weight expressed relative to the weight of said first hydrophobic or hydrophilic phase to be emulsified so as to make it profitable maximum amount of surfactant.
- the surfactant yield is defined as being the ratio of the amount of surfactant necessary to cover the dispersed droplets over the total amount of surfactant used.
- the process according to the invention is very particularly useful for preparing aqueous bitumen emulsions
- the viscoelastic paste obtained can be diluted with hot water (60 ° C) in the hours following its preparation and preferably immediately after its preparation.
- Emulsions having, after dilution, a bitumen concentration of between 75% and 85% prove to be particularly stable for at least several months.
- a surfactant such as, in particular, tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide at a rate of 1.5 grams per 100 grams of bitumen also makes it possible to reduce the size of the droplets of the emulsion to a value close to one micron.
- a particular embodiment of the invention therefore relates to the application of the claimed process to the preparation of a concentrated and calibrated bitumen emulsion.
- This process comprises the stages consisting in heating the bitumen to a temperature of 95 ° C., it is mixed, within a reactor and at atmospheric pressure, with 5% by weight of water and 0.5 % to 1.5% by weight of a surfactant relative to the weight of the bitumen and to apply to said mixture thus obtained, a shear rate so as to form said emulsion which is recovered.
- the stirring speed can vary between 0 and 1000 revolutions per minute and is preferably of the order of 400 to 500 revolutions per minute, which corresponds to a shear rate of approximately 1000 s "1.
- An emulsion concentrated in bitumen is obtained very quickly, that is to say in a few seconds, under the effect of this shearing. It in fact has the appearance of a viscoelastic paste of non-emulsified appearance. An examination of this emulsion shows that it has a concentration of up to 90 or even 95% by weight of bitumen.
- this paste proves to be perfectly redispersible in water despite its high concentration of bitumen.
- bitumen emulsions characterized in that they have a bitumen concentration greater than 75% and preferably at least equal to 85% by weight of bitumen.
- bitumen emulsions claimed and obtained according to the process of the invention have a polydispersity of the order of 40%. They consist of droplets having an average diameter less than or of the order of 2 microns, and preferably less than 1 micron
- the process according to the invention as well as the emulsions thus obtained, are particularly advantageous in the field of the road industry.
- the claimed process makes it possible to prepare fine emulsions of highly concentrated bitumens with very good control of the final size of their droplets, according to a rapid and simple protocol and with few surfactants.
- the present invention also extends to emulsions of hydrophobic or hydrophilic phase, obtained according to the claimed process II thus proves very particularly useful for preparing concentrated and calibrated emulsions with therapeutic, cosmetic or nutritional benefits.

- FIG. 8 Comparison in terms of polydispersity of an emulsion according to " the invention and of a control emulsion (example7).
- bitumen with a penetration index of 90/100 * 100 grams of bitumen with a penetration index of 90/100 * are heated to a temperature of the order of 100 ° C.
- An aqueous solution of tetradecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (TTAB) of variable concentration is prepared.
- the heated bitumen is poured onto the aqueous solution and the whole is kneaded for a few seconds using a flexible grid, at 400 revolutions per minute (1,000 s "1 ), in a 10 cm reactor.
- the emulsion obtained almost instantaneously is characterized in terms of droplet diameter.
- the penetration index is a parameter used in the road industry to characterize the "hardness" of a bitumen at 25 ° C.
- the method of measuring the penetration index is governed by the ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) standard D5-86.
- the protocol, described in example 1, is reproduced for two concentrations of TTAB, 0.75 grams and 1.5 grams and in the presence for each of these concentrations, of a quantity of water varying between 4 and 14 grams.
- the emulsions obtained at the end of each of the tests are characterized by the average diameter of their droplets. The results are shown in the graph in Figure 1.
- the finest emulsion is obtained for a constant quantity of water of the order of 5 grams per 100 grams of bitumen.
- the minimum droplet size thus obtained can also be reduced by increasing the amount of surfactant.
- the minimum diameter is increased to 0.8 microns against 2 microns with 0.75 grams of TTAB.
- Example 2 The protocol described in Example 1 is reproduced with 100 g of bitumen, 1.5 g of TTAB and 5.5 g of water for variable agitation rates.
- the emulsions obtained at the end of each of the tests are characterized by the average diameter of their droplets. The results are represented on the graph of FIG. 2. It is thus observed that a high shear speed promotes the formation of droplets with significantly smaller average diameter However, the stirring speed must not exceed a threshold value of 1000 revolutions / minute (approximately 2,500 s "1 ) beyond which the excessively violent shearing destroys the concentrated emulsion.
- EXAMPLE 4 Effect of the amount of cationic surfactant on the average diameter of the droplets of a bitumen emulsion at constant volume of water and shear.
- Example 1 The protocol described in Example 1 is reproduced for different concentrations of TTAB, in the presence of 5.5 grams of water. The results obtained are shown on the graph in Figure 3. It is noted that 1 gram of TTAB per 100 grams of bitumen is sufficient to reach sizes on the order of a micron.
- a characterization of the yield of the processes as a function of the mass of TTAB introduced shows in fact that the maximum efficiency is almost reached for this maximum quantity of TTAB. More precisely, this result is obtained by posing the yield as being the ratio of the mass of surfactants, present at the interfaces, to the total mass of introduced surfactants.
- the mass of surfactants, present at the interfaces is simply deduced by a measurement of the residual quantity of surfactants, present in the second phase after a controlled dilution.
- the graph in FIG. 4 gives an account of this ratio as a function of the total mass introduced into the 5.5 grams of water necessary to emulsify 100 grams of bitumen.
- the viscous hydrophilic phase to be dispersed is an aqueous mixture containing 44% polyethylene glycol PEG 35000, the surfactant is Span 80® (sorbitan monooleate, sold by Sigma), present at a rate of
- Example 5 The protocol described in Example 5 is reproduced for several concentrations of Span 80® surfactant and 3 g of dodecane.
- the emulsions obtained at the end of each of the tests are characterized by the average diameter of their droplets. The results are shown in the graph in Figure 7.
- bitumen emulsion according to the invention Comparison of a bitumen emulsion according to the invention and a conventional emulsion in terms of polydispersity and average diameter of the droplets.
- the industrial implementation technique consists in injecting under pressure (about 1.5 atmospheres) and at 130 ° C the bitumen, on the one hand, and the aqueous soap phase, on the other hand, between two coaxial cylinders (a rotor and a stator) spaced about 1 mm apart.
- the rotor rotates at a speed of approximately 5,000 revolutions per minute.
- the emulsification takes place directly in the 1 mm air gap, it takes place in turbulent regime.
- the volume fraction of the phase to be dispersed cannot exceed 70%, otherwise the system will be blocked.
- This assessment is carried out from an emulsion obtained in accordance with the present invention and incorporating 0.75 grams of TTAB for 5.5 grams of water and 100 grams of bitumen and a conventional industrial emulsion of bitumen.
