Abstract
Abstract Low density conductive carbon black agglomerated particles are finely divided to a particle size below 0.044 millimeter and added in a portionwise manner to a PVC resin in a closed system. The process ensures a uniform dispersion of the carbon black into the PVC resin and uniform bulk and surface properties of articles molded from the resultant resin.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
165 words
In a process for mixing low density conductive carbon black particles with polyvinyl chloride resin particles in such amount so that the resultant particulate composition has a bulk resistivity below about 500 ohm-cm at 900 MHz, the improvement which comprises (a) weighing a first portion of carbon black particles, (b) dividing the carbon black particles to a particle size of 0.044 millimeter or less, (c) weighing the polyvinyl chloride resin particles and additives into a high intensity mixer, (d) transporting the carbon black particles to said mixer in a closed system, (e) mixing the carbon black with the polyvinyl chloride particles until the carbon black particles are adsorbed, (f) weighing, dividing and adding another portion of carbon black particles to the mixer, (g) mixing until the carbon black is adsorbed, (h) repeating steps (f) and (g) until all of the carbon black has been added to said mixer, and (i) mixing until all the ingredients are uniformly dispersed and no unadsorbed carbon black is present.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
165 words

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
21 words
The process according to claim 1 wherein the carbon black has an initial bulk density of about 140-160 grams per liter.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
18 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the carbon black particles are deaerated prior to conveying to the mixer.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
19 words
The process of claim 1 wherein liquid additives are added after all of the carbon black has been added.
