Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of cable fireproof coating, in particular to a flame-retardant heat-conducting polyacrylic acid fireproof coating and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the continuous growth of power demand and the continuous progress of power transmission technology, the transmission voltage level of power cables is also increasing. However, the heat accumulation and temperature rise problem accompanied by high-voltage power transmission poses a serious challenge to power safety, and cable fire has become a particularly urgent and non-negligible threat. Cable fire not only can cause serious damage to the power system, but also can cause casualties and heavy property losses, and its potential consequences are unpredictable.

[0003] Fireproof coating is an important part of cable fireproof measures, which is usually composed of film-forming resin, flame-retardant components and other additives. Intumescent fireproof coating has become a widely used choice in the industry because of its thin coating and flexibility to meet the stretching needs of the cable when bending. Currently, this type of coating mostly uses physical blending technology to add intumescent flame retardant and other additives to the film-forming resin. Intumescent flame retardant is a mixture of acid source, carbon source and gas source, so the ratio of the three components is extremely complex, and it is difficult to control the proportion of the three. In addition, the compounded system has the disadvantages of large total addition amount, easy precipitation, easy moisture absorption, poor thermal stability, poor compatibility with polymers, and uneven phase distribution.

[0004] In view of the above problems, researchers have developed a series of single-component intumescent flame retardants that integrate three sources into one molecule, i.e. "three-in-one" intumescent flame retardants, which can effectively reduce the addition amount and moisture absorption, and have good thermal stability. However, most of the three-in-one intumescent flame retardants are still added in a physical blending manner, which has poor compatibility with the film-forming resin and can adversely affect the mechanical properties and film-forming properties of the film-forming resin. More importantly, intumescent fireproof coating cannot improve the thermal conductivity and insulation performance of the resin material, making it difficult to effectively dissipate the heat generated by the cable during operation, and local high temperature may trigger material pyrolysis and combustion, increasing the risk of fire. In the case of cable leakage, it is more likely to cause a fire accident. SUMMARY

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present application is how to improve the thermal conductivity and insulation of the fireproof coating.

[0006] The present application solves the above technical problems by the following technical means:

The flame retardant and thermal conductive polyacrylic acid fire retardant coatings of Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-3 were brushed on the substrates respectively, left at room temperature for 12 hours, and then placed in a blast drying oven and baked at 80°C for 1 hour. The thickness was controlled according to different test items. The thickness standard was referenced to GB / T 1727-2021. Three substrates were brushed on each group of samples as samples. According to relevant standards, test standards and performance indicators are as follows: Figure 3 shown.

[0100] from Figure 3 It can be seen from the data that the flame retardant and thermally conductive polyacrylic acid fire retardant coatings of Examples 1-4 have excellent comprehensive performance, which is significantly better than that of Comparative Examples 1-3, fully verifying the synergistic effect of the "three-source-in-one" intumescent monomer and modified ceramic material.

[0101] The adhesion and hardness of Examples 1-4 are both higher than those of Comparative Examples 1-3, indicating that the dense network formed by chemical cross-linking of the "three-source-in-one" expandable monomer works synergistically with the strong interfacial bonding force of the ceramic material modified by the silane coupling agent to jointly construct a highly stable coating skeleton structure, thereby effectively inhibiting crack propagation and improving mechanical strength.

[0102] The flame-retardant and thermally conductive polyacrylic fire-retardant coatings of Examples 1-4 remained intact in the corrosion and boiling water tests, while the comparative examples 1-3 showed wrinkling and blistering, which was attributed to the density of the fire-retardant coatings and the uniform dispersion of the modified ceramic material, which effectively blocked the penetration of the medium.

[0103] The limiting oxygen index of the flame retardant and thermally conductive polyacrylic acid fire retardant coatings of Examples 1-4 is much higher than that of Comparative Examples 1-3, among which the flame retardant and thermally conductive polyacrylic acid fire retardant coating of Comparative Example 1 has the lowest oxygen index, proving that the intumescent monomer PCSM is an effective component that exerts a flame retardant effect.

[0104] The oxygen index of the flame-retardant thermally conductive polyacrylic fire-retardant coating of Comparative Example 3 is lower than that of all the examples but higher than that of Comparative Examples 1-2, indicating that the physically mixed methacrylate phosphate / melamine / chitosan still has a certain flame retardant effect, but the efficiency is lower than that of the "three-in-one" expandable monomer PCSM.

[0105] The flame-retardant, thermally conductive polyacrylic acid fire-retardant coatings of Examples 1-4 exhibit significantly longer flame retardancy than Comparative Examples 1-3, with smaller carbonized volumes, demonstrating the effective thermal insulation and flame retardancy of the intumescent PCSM carbon layer. Comparative Example 2 exhibits the lowest thermal conductivity, demonstrating the dominant role of modified boron nitride in thermal conductivity. However, Comparative Example 3 exhibits limited thermal conductivity due to the poor dispersibility of unmodified boron nitride. Due to the insulating properties of modified boron nitride, the volume resistivity of Example 1 is significantly higher than that of Comparative Example 2. Comparative Example 3 exhibits reduced insulation due to leakage caused by interface defects in the unmodified filler.

[0106] The above examples are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, but not to limit the present application; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing examples, those ordinarily skilled in the art should understand: the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing examples can be modified, or some technical features can be replaced equivalently; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
