Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a hollow product with microporous walls and also to a method for preparing the hollow product with microporous walls. Background Art

[0002] Hollow blow molding is a typical molding method for hollow polymer products. It uses gas pressure to inflate the hot melt parison closed in the mold and finally form a hollow product. According to the production characteristics of the parison, it can be divided into extrusion blow molding and injection blow molding. Compared with traditional extrusion blow molding, secondary injection blow molding or injection stretch blow molding, the parison production, blow molding and demolding of the one-step injection blow molding are completed in one step without secondary heating. Its products have perfect mouth, bottom, seam line, transparency and higher rigidity, no flash, no sprue, and fewer defects. Therefore, hollow products of various shapes obtained by one-step injection blow molding are now widely used in chemical industry, transportation, agriculture, food, beverage, cosmetics, medicine, washing products, children's toys and other fields.

[0003] Introducing micropores into polymer products can reduce weight, insulate, soundproof, reduce shock, eliminate shrinkage marks, and stabilize size. Introducing micrometer-sized bubbles into the wall of one-step injection-blowing products is expected to give such hollow products some excellent properties. Compared with the ordinary injection process, the one-step injection-blowing process does not cool and shape the preform after injection, and then enters the blow molding stage. This process has its own particularity. At present, it is still difficult to form hollow products with microporous structures. This is mainly manifested in that it is difficult to quickly introduce gas after the preform injection is completed and then enters the blow molding process. If the gas is introduced into the preform very early, the gas-containing preform will often have foamed during blow molding or there will be no signs of bubbles forming, which makes it difficult to synchronize blow molding and foaming, and the product wall itself and the micropores in the wall cannot be shaped at the same time. Therefore, the existing one-step injection-blowing process cannot produce hollow products with microporous walls. Summary of the invention

[0004] Purpose of the invention: The purpose of the present invention is to provide a hollow product with microporous walls, the wall thickness of the hollow product is higher than that of conventional hollow products (hollow products without microporous walls-solid wall hollow products) by more than 10%, and the longitudinal and transverse compressive strength of the hollow product is significantly improved compared with conventional hollow products; another purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing the above-mentioned hollow product with microporous walls.

[0005] Technical solution: The hollow product with microporous walls described in the present invention has a large number of micropores in the wall and bottom of the hollow product, the micropores are uniform in size, the micropore diameter is within 150 microns, and the micropores are slightly oriented along the upper and lower directions of the container; the inner and outer wall surfaces of the wall and bottom are solid structures.

[0006] The wall density of the hollow product is 50-90% of the raw material density, that is, the foaming ratio is 10% to 100%.

[0007] The method for preparing the hollow product with microporous walls comprises the following steps:

[0008] (1) Preparing a foaming masterbatch: uniformly mixing a pretreated (dried) foaming agent, an active regulator and a base resin, and obtaining a foaming masterbatch by a plastic extruder;

[0009] (2) melting, extruding and pelletizing the dried plastic raw material through a plastic extruder to form the main material of the hollow product to be formed;

[0010] (3) adding the foaming masterbatch of step (1) to the main material of step (2), and mixing them uniformly to form a mixed material;

[0011] (4) Perform a heating gas release experiment on the mixed material to determine the gas release time curve of the mixed material at the corresponding temperature T. The characteristic values ​​of the curve include the peak time t P , start time t S and end time t E ;

[0012] (5) Based on the time curve obtained in step (4), the mixed material is added to a three-in-one injection blow molding machine equipped with a preform mold and a bottle blowing mold. During the injection blow process, the maximum temperature of the injection blow machine barrel is set to T, and the time interval from the time when the mixed material enters the machine barrel from the hopper (which means when the mixed material starts to be injected into the barrel and starts to be heated) to the time when the melt starts to be blown is between t S With t P Between, that is, less than t P , greater than t S ; A hollow product with microporous walls is obtained.

[0013] Wherein, in step (1), the foaming masterbatch is mixed by the following components in parts by weight: 10 to 40 parts of foaming agent, 1.5 to 5 parts of active regulator and 50 to 100 parts of base resin.

[0014] The foaming agent is azodicarbonamide or bicarbonate, and its decomposition temperature is 130-220°C; the base resin is LDPE-g-MA with moderate fluidity, its maleic anhydride grafting rate is about 1%, its melt flow rate is 0.3-10g / 10min, and its melting point is below 120 degrees.

[0015] The active regulator is composed of an activator, a passivator and a cross-linking agent; the activator can catalyze the gas decomposition of the foaming agent, which is zinc oxide (ZnO); the passivator can delay the penetration of the foaming agent in the melt, which is dimethyl silicone oil; the cross-linking agent makes the polymer matrix properly cross-linked to improve its gas carrying capacity, which is diisopropylbenzene peroxide. By adjusting the mixing mass ratio of the three components of the active regulator in the foaming masterbatch, it is possible to avoid excessive concentration of gas release or too long a delay in time.

[0016] Wherein, in step (1), during extrusion, the extrusion temperature is 120-125° C. If the temperature is too high, the foaming agent may decompose prematurely, and if the temperature is too low, it is not conducive to plasticization.

[0017] Wherein, in step (2), the plastic raw material includes one or more of PE and PP, and the melt flow volume rate of the obtained main material is 0.3 to 5 cm 3 / 10min.

[0018] Wherein, in step (3), the mass percentage of the foaming masterbatch in the mixed material is 2% to 10%.

[0019] Among them, in step (4), the heating and gas release experiment uses a torque rheometer with a sealed cavity, a vent is opened on one side of the sealed cavity, a sensor capable of testing the gas flow is provided at the vent, and the sensor is connected to an external monitoring terminal.

[0020] The heating and gas release experiment is specifically as follows:

[0021] (4.1) Preheating the torque rheometer to a temperature T, adding 85-95% of the mixed material of the fixed capacity of the torque rheometer through the feed port of the torque rheometer, sealing the feed port, and starting the rotor of the torque rheometer to rotate at a determined speed;

[0022] (4.2) The gas release time curve is recorded by the gas sensor at the vent, including the gas release peak time t P , Start time (the time interval from sealing the feed port to the start of gas generation) t S and end time t E;

[0023] (4.3) Repeat the above experiment (steps (4.1) to (4.2)) three times and take the average of the three times as the result.

[0024] Wherein, in step (4.1), the temperature T is set to be 10 to 30 degrees higher than the peak temperature of gas released by the foaming masterbatch (this temperature is the peak temperature of gas released by the foaming agent; the foaming masterbatch is taken and scanned at 5 to 10 degrees / minute using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) to obtain the peak temperature of gas released by the foaming masterbatch) and exceeds the melting point of the mixed material; the rotation speed of the torque rheometer is 40 to 80 rpm.

[0025] The method of the present invention can prepare a microporous wall container with a hollow volume of 20ML to 2L. The hollow product wall and bottom have a large number of micropores, the micropore size is uniform, the diameter is within 150 microns, the micropores are slightly oriented along the upper and lower directions of the container, and the inner and outer wall surfaces of the product wall and bottom are solid structures. The surface quality is similar to that of conventional one-step injection-blown hollow products, and the product wall density is between 50 and 90% of the raw material density. The present invention can make the product pore formation process consistent with the blow molding process, avoid the problem of premature or late pore formation, and effectively solve the problem that the molding and foaming shaping of one-step injection-blown products are difficult to synchronize.

[0026] Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following significant advantages: (1) Under the condition of the same amount of materials, the wall thickness of the hollow product prepared by the method of the present invention is more than 10% higher than that of the conventional product, and the longitudinal and transverse compressive strength are significantly improved; (2) Under the condition of the same volume, there are a large number of micropores inside the hollow product prepared by the method of the present invention, resulting in low density and light weight of the product; (3) The method of the present invention can obtain thick-walled hollow products with lower pressure and shorter injection time, effectively reducing equipment energy consumption and improving production efficiency; at the same time, the presence of micropores makes the product easier to shape, and ultimately improves the dimensional accuracy of the hollow product; (4) The uniform micropores existing in the wall of the hollow product can improve the performance of the product in terms of sound insulation, heat insulation, shock resistance, etc.; and under the condition of the same amount of materials, the microporous wall hollow product prepared by the method of the present invention has better barrier properties and is suitable for the packaging field.
