The invention discloses an in-situ
polymerization method for preparation of nylon 6 /
epoxide resin / silica dioxide
nanocomposite, which consists of the following steps:a)preparing
epoxide resin
siloxane solution by
graft reaction and hydrolytic reaction; b) before or in the aminocaprolactam cycle-open reaction, introducing the
epoxide resin
siloxane solution into the
mediator of the said aminocaprolactam cycle-open reaction, simultaneously adding the water and the anti-oxidant; c) making the aminocaprolactam open ring and polymerize to prepare high-strength and super
ductility nylon-6 / epoxide resin / silica dioxide
nanocomposite. The invention makes the
silicate react with the
hydroxy group of the epoxide resin under the accelerating effect, then dissolvent, water and acid (or alkali) are added to hydrolyze. Because the silicasol surface graft and adsorb epoxide resin, the agglomeration of the earth
silicon nanoparticles can be effectively avoided. On the other hand, because the
epoxy radicals can react with the amidol and the carboxyl of the nylon-6 molecular chain to form partial interpenetration
network architecture, accordingly the diphasic boundary action can be effectively improved. It has a good cooperating knife-bar with the nano earth
silicon, so it can largely improve the
bruise resistance of the materials as well as the hot strength of the composite, in which the hot strength has increased by 30 % compared with nylon-6 and the
bruise resistance is 3-5 times of the nylon-6.
