Fluid separating agent and his use

p0001The invention relates to a liquid release agent for application to the provided means of an adhesive or glue with a coating or to be provided edge region of a panel, in particular a furniture panel, with an addition of mineral oil.

p0002Such a releasing agent is known from <patcit id="pcit0001" dnum="DE20314849U1"><text>DE 203 14 849 U1</text></patcit> known. In principle, this release agent has been proven in practice.

p0003In this case, this release agent is preferably used in order to prevent sticking of adhesive or glue residues on the furniture panel, when the edge thereof is coated with an edge strip.

p0004However, applications are known in which the known release agent does not lead to an optimum result.

p0005In order to obtain a ready to use for the intended purpose parting agent, is used as solvent special gasoline, so that the release agent is present together with the mineral oil as a solution.

p0006The use of special gasoline as a solvent, however, requires especially relating to employment protection appropriate measures, such as extraction devices or the like.

p0007According to the Euro-Material Safety Data Sheet for liquid release agent with a proportion of SBP, the known release agent leads to skin irritation, adverse effects in the aquatic environment, because toxic to aquatic life, to health, especially lung damage if swallowed the release agent or an occurrence of drowsiness or dizziness when the gasoline vapors are inhaled.

p0008In addition, however, the special gasoline has also effects on the various parts of the processing machines, in which the known separating means comes via spray devices are used. So caused by the SBP deformation of conveyor belts can be observed, leading to a thickening of chain plates, whereby the operation disrupted and the quality of the plate processing is impaired.

p0009The invention is based on the object of a separation means of the generic type in such that its usefulness is improved.

p0010This object is achieved by a separating means having the features of claim 1.

p0011As has been shown surprisingly, by using a mineral oil with a low viscosity, according to the invention ≥ 2.5 to ≤35 mm²/ S to dispense completely at 20 ° C according to DIN 51562, the use of gasoline and special fuel.

p0012That the alcoholic solvent added oil, preferably a white oil, has according to an advantageous embodiment of the invention has a viscosity of ≥ 3 to ≤ 18, in particular ≥ 5 to ≤ 7, preferably about 6.3 mm²/ S.

p0013While in the oil previously used special fuel has to be added with a correspondingly higher viscosity to the solution also an added alcohol in any case, the alcoholic solvent dissolves now completely in the oil or a solution of mineral oil and alcoholic solvent is prepared.

p0014Preferred in this context is the alcoholic solvent is selected from ethanol, is present in a concentration of preferably 85% to 99%, while the low viscosity mineral oil as the carrier fluid is then present in a concentration of 15% to 1%.

p0015The now possible abandonment of the use of special fuel leads to a lower concentration of hydrocarbons in the air, so that a significant improvement in working conditions is given, including a much lower degreasing and irritating action counts on the skin of the working staff.

p0016Basically, the new liquid release agent substantially no environmentally hazardous constituents more, which naturally has a simpler production process and a simpler mechanical equipment the consequence that can be dispensed with appropriate extraction extent. The effects according to the mentioned Euro MSDS no longer occur.

p0017In addition, the service life of the machine increases with the use of the new release agent for plate making, since the inevitable in operating contact with the release agent no longer causes the initially described disadvantages regarding deformation of conveyor belts by the inserted special fuel.
