The invention relates to the technical field of
printing ink, and discloses a preparation method of a water-borne
epoxy resin binder and application of the water-borne
epoxy resin binder in
printing ink, water and nano
titanium dioxide are added into a container, modified
silicone oil is added after ultrasonic treatment, stirring and dispersing are carried out, then water-borne
epoxy resin, a defoaming agent, a flatting agent and a
thickening agent are added, stirring and uniform mixing are carried out, and the water-borne epoxy resin binder is obtained. The waterborne epoxy resin binder is obtained. The
catechol structure of the modified
silicone oil can be coordinated with the surface of the nano
titanium dioxide, so that the
surface coating modification of the nano
titanium dioxide is realized, the agglomeration of the nano
titanium dioxide is reduced, the
dispersity of the nano
titanium dioxide in a water-borne epoxy resin connecting material is improved, and the
emulsion is free of
precipitation and layering and very good in storage stability. The imino group contained in the modified
silicone oil can be subjected to a curing reaction with the epoxy resin, so that a very good
toughening effect is achieved, and meanwhile, the
heat resistance and
flame retardance of the epoxy resin are improved.
