Problems solved by technology

As the processing temperature rises, the melt strength of general-purpose impact resin drops sharply, and the gas decomposed by the foaming agent is difficult to keep in the resin, which may easily cause cell wall rupture, gas escape, cell collapse, and air bubbles during the foaming process. Merging and other phenomena, due to the release of more heat during crystallization, the melt strength is reduced, and the bubbles are easily destroyed after foaming, so it is not easy to obtain products with uniform and fine cells and high foaming ratio
The common way to increase the melt strength of polypropylene is to reduce the melt index, that is, to increase the molecular weight of polypropylene, but this will cause difficulties in material melting and extrusion

preparation example 1

[0089] This preparation example is used to illustrate the polypropylene provided by the present invention and its preparation method.

[0090] The propylene polymerization reaction is carried out on a polypropylene unit, and the main equipment of the unit includes a prepolymerization reactor, a first loop reactor, a second loop reactor and a third gas phase reactor. The polymerization method and steps are as follows.

[0091] (1) Prepolymerization reaction

[0092] The main catalyst (DQC-401 catalyst, provided by Beijing Aoda Branch of Sinopec Catalyst Company), co-catalyst (triethylaluminum), and the first external electron donor (isopropylcyclopentyldimethoxysilane, IPCPMS) were After pre-contacting at 6°C for 20 minutes, it is continuously fed into a continuous stirred tank prepolymerization reactor for prepolymerization. The flow of triethylaluminum (TEA) entering the prepolymerization reactor is 6.33g / hr, the flow of isopropylcyclopentyldimethoxysilane is 0.3g / hr, the f...

preparation example 2

[0100] This preparation example is used to illustrate the polypropylene provided by the present invention and its preparation method.

[0101] The catalyst used, pre-complexation, polymerization process conditions and auxiliary agent formulation and addition are the same as in Preparation Example 1. The difference with Preparation Example 1 is that the second external electron donor is changed to 2,-isopropyl-2-isopentyl-1,3-dimethoxypropane (IPPMP), and the addition amount remains unchanged, and the second The amount of hydrogen in the second reactor in the stage was adjusted to 4000ppm. The obtained polymer analysis results and polymer physical properties are listed in Table 1 and Table 2.

[0102]

[0103] From the results shown in Table 1 and Table 2, it can be seen that the polypropylene material prepared by the method of the present invention has high melt strength, high tensile strength, flexural modulus, and notched impact strength. Therefore, the impact polypropy...

Embodiment 1

[0106] The polypropylene particles prepared in Preparation Example 1 were kneaded by a twin-screw extruder, shaped by a die, cooled and cut off to make a 20cm*20cm*1cm polypropylene board to be expanded. The mold installed between the molding presses was heated up to 153° C., the polypropylene plate was put into it, the molding presses were closed, and the molds were sealed. Feed 10MPa supercritical carbon dioxide into the mold, so that the supercritical carbon dioxide diffuses into the polypropylene matrix at 153°C and 10MPa. After 30 minutes of saturation, the diffusion equilibrium is reached, and then the mold is opened to release the pressure to normal pressure for foaming, the foamed board pops up, cooled and shaped, and a polypropylene foamed board with an external dimension of 60.8cm*60.8cm*3.1cm is obtained. . Test its foaming ratio, and analyze its internal cell shape by scanning electron microscope. Its performance is shown in Table 3.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of macromolecules, in particular to a high-melt-strength impact-resistant polypropylene foam material and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] The preparation method of polypropylene foam material is mainly based on the supersaturated gas method. First, the blowing agent is dissolved and diffused in the polymer to form a gas / polymer saturated system; then the system enters a supersaturated state through a sudden temperature rise and / or rapid pressure release, thereby inducing cell nucleation and growth; Finally, the cell structure is finalized by rapid cooling and other methods. [0003] Polypropylene foam material has excellent heat resistance, insulation, heat preservation, cold resistance, oil resistance, chemical resistance, barrier properties and easy recycling. Therefore, compared with the common expanded polystyrene (EPS or XPS) or expanded polyurethane (EPU) on the market, the polyprop...
