[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fireproof materials, and specifically to a thermoplastic polyurethane fireproof material and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Polyurethane molecules have repeating urethane segments and have good mechanical properties, weather resistance and other properties, and are widely used in the fields of leather, finishing, etc. Thermoplastic polyurethane has excellent elasticity, toughness, aging resistance and other properties, and is widely used in the fields of shoe materials, sports equipment, leather materials, toys, etc. However, its flame retardancy is poor. Benzoxazine is a new type of thermosetting resin, which refers to the general term of compounds containing N and O six-membered oxazine rings in the structure, and has the characteristics of high modulus, high strength, good heat resistance, low water absorption, etc.
[0003] Flame retardants are divided into organic flame retardants and inorganic flame retardants. The compatibility of inorganic flame retardants with polyurethane is poor. Among the organic flame retardants, nitrogen-phosphorus flame retardants are a widely used type of flame retardant, which are widely used in the fields of plastics, rubbers, textiles, coatings, etc. For example, the patent with the authorization announcement number CN113637151B discloses a preparation method of polybenzoxazine carbonate. Applying it to polyurethane can improve the mechanical properties and thermal stability of polyurethane materials, but its flame retardancy is poor. Summary of the Invention

Based on the traditional nitrogen-phosphorus flame retardant, a flame retardant is obtained through the Mannich reaction, which not only contains nitrogen-phosphorus flame retardant but also has benzoxazine with strong thermal stability. Then, the prepared poly(phosphate-tetrazine benzoxazine) flame retardant is applied to polyurethane materials, and the prepared polyurethane materials have excellent flame retardancy.

[0006] (2) Put the poly(phosphate-tetrazine benzoxazine) flame retardant and polyurethane into a Haake mixer for mixing, and then put the mixture into a hot press for pressurization and pressure holding to obtain a thermoplastic polyurethane fireproof material.
[0007] Preferably, the mass ratio of each reactant in the step (1) is: phosphorus-containing acrylate: divinyltetrazine benzoxazine: ammonium persulfate = 1: (0.7 - 1.5): (0.012 - 0.018). Preferably, the mass ratio of each reactant in the step (2) is: polyurethane: poly(phosphate - tetrazine benzoxazine) flame retardant = 100: (5 - 25).
[0008] Preferably, the temperature of the hot press in the step (2) is 170 - 190 °C, the pressure is increased to 15 - 20 MPa, and the pressure is maintained for 3 - 6 min.
[0009] Preferably, the preparation method of the phosphorus-containing acrylate in the step (1) is as follows: Under a nitrogen atmosphere, in an ice bath at 0 - 5 °C, dissolve 2-chloro-5,5-dimethyl-1,3,2-dioxaphospholane-2-oxide in dichloromethane solvent, and then add hydroxyethyl acrylate and triethylamine thereto. According to the mass ratio, 2-chloro-5,5-dimethyl-1,3,2-dioxaphospholane-2-oxide: hydroxyethyl acrylate: triethylamine = 1: 0.5 - 0.8: 0.6 - 0.75. React at a temperature of 30 - 50 °C for 6 - 12 h, filter, concentrate the filtrate under reduced pressure, wash with ether, and dry to obtain the phosphorus-containing acrylate. The reaction equation is as follows: .
[0010] Preferably, the preparation method of the divinyltetrazine benzoxazine in the step (1) is as follows: Dissolve 4,4'-(1,2,4,5-tetrazine-3,6-diyl)dianiline, paraformaldehyde, and o-allylphenol in toluene solvent, carry out a reflux reaction, and distill under reduced pressure. Wash successively with sodium hydroxide solution, water, and acetone, and dry to obtain divinyltetrazine benzoxazine. The reaction equation is as follows: .
[0011] Preferably, the mass ratio of each reactant in the step is: 4,4'-(1,2,4,5-tetrazine-3,6-diyl)dianiline: paraformaldehyde: o-allylphenol = 1: 0.4 - 0.6: 1 - 1.15.
[0012] Preferably, the reflux reaction temperature in the step is 100 - 120 °C, and the reflux reaction time is 3 - 6 h.

Finally, the poly(phosphate-tetrazine benzoxazine) flame retardant is blended with polyurethane and hot-pressed to obtain a thermoplastic polyurethane fireproof material.
[0014] Among them, the phosphorus element decomposes when heated to form metaphosphoric acid. At high temperatures, metaphosphoric acid polymerizes to form a polyphosphate vitreous body, which can not only isolate oxygen and heat on the material surface, but also phosphoric acid and metaphosphoric acid have strong dehydrating properties, which can cause the polymer to dehydrate and form carbon, forming a carbonized layer on its surface. The carbonized layer has poor thermal conductivity and isolates the transfer of heat. In addition, the nitrogen element contained therein generates a non-combustible gas when heated, which can dilute the concentration of flammable gases in the air and further achieve the flame retardant effect. The benzoxazine contained therein has a six-membered heterocycle, which can absorb more heat under heating conditions and undergo a ring-opening polymerization reaction to form a network structure similar to phenolic resin. The resulting polymer has high heat resistance. In addition, the main decomposition products of benzoxazine during combustion are non-combustible and non-toxic gases such as NH3 and CO2, which can dilute flammable gases and achieve the flame retardant effect. The nitrogen-phosphorus flame retardant and benzoxazine synergistically assist each other to jointly improve the flame retardant performance of the material. Detailed implementation mode

[0039] (2) Place 2.5 g of divinyltetrazine benzoxazine and 50 g of polyurethane in a Haake mixer for mixing, and then place the mixture in a hot press at 180 °C and apply pressure up to 15 MPa, and hold the pressure for 6 min to obtain a thermoplastic polyurethane fireproof material.
[0040] Use a cone calorimeter to measure the heat release rate, peak heat release rate, and total heat release of the material.
[0041] As can be seen from the table, the flame retardant effect of the examples is better than that of the comparative examples. This is because in the examples, poly(phosphate-tetrazine benzoxazine) flame retardant is added, which can achieve a synergistic flame retardant effect of nitrogen and phosphorus. While in Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2, phosphorus-containing acrylate and divinyltetrazine benzoxazine are added respectively, and neither of them achieves a synergistic flame retardant effect of nitrogen and phosphorus; the phosphorus element in poly(phosphate-tetrazine benzoxazine) flame retardant decomposes when heated to form metaphosphoric acid, and at high temperature, it further polymerizes to form a glass layer, which can isolate oxygen and heat on the material surface. Phosphoric acid and metaphosphoric acid have strong dehydration properties, which can cause the polymer to dehydrate and form carbon, forming a carbonized layer on its surface. The carbonized layer has poor thermal conductivity and isolates the transfer of heat. The nitrogen element in it generates a non-flammable gas when heated, which can dilute the concentration of flammable gases in the air and further achieve the flame retardant effect. The benzoxazine in it undergoes a ring-opening polymerization reaction when heated to form a network structure similar to phenolic resin, and the resulting polymer has high heat resistance. The two assist each other and jointly improve the flame retardancy of the material.
[0042] Place the polyurethane material on the horizontal position of the bracket in the smoke density chamber. The specimen burns in the chamber to generate smoke, and record the time to reach the maximum smoke density, the maximum smoke density, and the total smoke release.
[0043] As can be seen from the table, the flame retardant effect of the examples is better than that of the comparative examples, and with the increase of the amount of flame retardant, the time to reach the maximum smoke density increases from 43 s to 54 s, the maximum smoke density decreases from 55% to 40%, and the total smoke release decreases from 18.6 m 2 / m 2 to 16.2 m 2 / m2 The longer the time to reach the maximum smoke density and the smaller the maximum smoke density, the better. Therefore, the flame retardant effect of the examples is better than that of the comparative examples.
