Description
United States Patent 3,577,248 LOW MOLECULAR WEIGHT LINEAR ALKYL BEN- ZENE SULFONATE AS FROTHING AGENTS FOR ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE This invention relates to gypsum boards and to a meth- 0:1 for producing the board which utilizes as a frothing agent an alkyl benzene sulfonate having a linear secondary alkyl side chain with an average carbon content rangingfrom 8.5 to 10.5 and a maximum carbon number spread of 8 carbon atoms. Preferably, the average carbon content ranges from 9.5 to 10.5 and the carbon number spread is a maximum of carbon atoms. This frothing agent is generally utilized in amounts ranging from 0.01 to 0.1 part per 100 parts by weight gypsum.
BACKGROUND OF INVENTION core to lower the density of'the final board. This is accomplished by incorporating a froth or foam into the 'slurry'priorto" the evaporationof water. The froth is prepared by agitating an aqueous solution of a frothing agent such as rosin soap. Attempts have been made to utilize in commercial operations synthetic detergents such as alkyl benzene sulfonates having alkyl side chains containing from 11 to 13 carbon atoms which have been very successful in other fields such as dishwashing and clothes washing. It was found, however, that the amount and stability of the foam generated by these frothing agents was not sufficient to insure uniform low density throughout the board.
It has now been discovered that alkyl benzene sulfonates having a linear secondary alkyl side chain with an average carbon content ranging from 8.5 to 10.5 and a maximum carbon numberspread of eight carbon atoms is superior to other alkyl benzene sulfonates in producing greater amounts of more stable foam in the gypsum slurry. This phenomenon is unexpected since it is well-known in the art that in other detergent applications alkyl benzene sulfonates having alkyl chains of less than eleven carbon atom exhibit poorer detergent properties including foam generation and stability. Because of the outstanding stability a substantial portion of the foam remains intact during the agitation and setting of the gypsum slurry in the gypsum. board thus permitting the utilization of smaller amounts of foam and consequentdly lower frothing agent loadings.

It is an object of this invention to provide an improved method of producing gypsum board.
Patented May 4, 1971 It is a further object of this invention to provide a new light weight gypsum board having uniform density characteristics.
The alkyl benzene sulfonates which can be utilized in the practice of this invention have the following structural formula wherein R and R are linear alkyl radicals and the average carbon content of the sum of R and R ranges from 7.5 to 9.5. X is an alkali metal ion or ammonium. It has been found that while alkyl benzene sulfonates wherein R+R' ranges from 7.5 to 8.5 impart uniform density to the board their efiiciency is impaired by the presence of certain accelerators or retarders such as starch. Preferably, therefore, the average carbon content resulting from the sum of R+R' ranges from 8.5 to 9.5 and the maximum carbon number spread is five. The most suitable salt is that in which sodium is the cation.
The alkyl benzene sulfonates of this invention can be prepared by subjecting a linear olefin or a secondary linear alkyl chloride or alcohol and benzene to an alkylation environment in the presence of an alkylation catalyst such as AlCl HF, H 80 or BF The alkylated benzene can then be sulfonated utilizing re-agents such as sulfuric acid, sulfur trioxide or oleum. The sulfonated portion of the molecule is then neutralized by reaction with an alkali metal compound such as sodium hydroxide or an ammonium compound such as ammonia or ammonium hydroxide.
The light weight gypsum boards of this invention can be prepared by placing a froth-containing gypsum slurry between two impervious barries and then evaporating the free water to allow the gypsum to set. The slurry is pre- 40 pared by adding gypsum to water and agitating. The
amount of water will vary depending upon the type of gypsum and the strength and density of the desired board. Generally, the water ranges from 60 to 130 parts per 100 parts gypsum. The froth can be generated in the slurry by merely adding a frothing agent and then agitating the mixture until the desired level of foam is produced. Preferably, however, the foam is first prepared and then added to the slurry. The amount of frothing agent utilized depends ultimately upon the desired density of the board.
Other factors which dictate the proper frothing agent loading include the type of gypsum, the hardness of the water and the specific foaming properties of the frothing agent. For most commercial operations the amounts of frothing agent ranges from 0.001 to 1 part per 100 parts gypsum.
Optimum loadings are usually in the range of 0.01 to 0.1
part per 100 parts gypsum.
After depositing the slurry between two impervious barriers such as paper sheets, the mixture is then subjected to heat usually at about 250 F. to 350 F. to evaporate the water and allow the gypsum to set. Additional components such as builders or stabilizers can be added to the froth to enhance or increase its basic properties.
