Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a self-luminous coating material, a preparation method and application thereof, and belongs to the technical field of advanced functional materials. Background Art

[0002] Long-afterglow luminescent materials are self-luminous, functional luminescent coatings. As passive optical materials, they play an irreplaceable role in public safety, emergency guidance, and landscape lighting. Their core performance indicators include afterglow duration, initial brightness, environmental stability, and substrate adhesion. As their application scenarios have expanded from traditional power facility signs to diverse fields such as transportation engineering, fire protection systems, and architectural decoration, more stringent cross-domain requirements have been placed on the material's comprehensive performance. These materials must provide continuous visible light guidance for 12 hours or more in the absence of external light sources and maintain stable performance under extreme temperature fluctuations, UV radiation, and mechanical stress.

[0003] However, the existing long afterglow coating system still has key performance shortcomings, which seriously restricts its large-scale engineering application. Although traditional sulfide-based fluorescent materials (such as ZnS:Cu) have initial brightness advantages, their afterglow time is generally less than 4 hours, and sulfur ion migration occurs after exposure to a humid and hot environment, resulting in a brightness decay rate of more than 50%. Ordinary rare earth aluminate systems (such as SrAl2O4:Eu 2+ ,Dy 3+ While the afterglow time is increased to 10-15 hours, its crystal structure is sensitive to UV rays, and its luminous efficiency drops by over 40% after one year of outdoor use, making it difficult to meet the requirements for long-term maintenance-free coating substrates. To increase luminous intensity, existing technologies often use nano-sized phosphors (particle size <5μm). However, these high-surface-area powders tend to agglomerate in the resin matrix, increasing the coating's porosity and reducing adhesion (cross-hatch testing) from 4B to 2B.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a self-luminous coating material with high brightness, long afterglow, strong adhesion, and aging resistance that can adapt to the needs of multiple fields, solve the key contradictions of the existing material system in engineering applications, and provide innovative solutions for the safe operation and maintenance of smart cities.

[0025] A method for preparing a self-luminous coating material comprises the following steps:

[0031] Furthermore, the unmodified luminous powder SrAl2O4:Eu 2+ ,Dy 3+ ,Cu + ,Mn 2+ The preparation method is as follows: SrCO3, Al2O3, Eu2O3, Dy2O3, CuO and MnCO3 are weighed according to the stoichiometric ratio, the weighed raw materials are added to a ball mill for wet ball milling dispersion, and the ball-milled slurry is vacuum dried to obtain a uniformly mixed powder; the mixed powder is placed in a reducing atmosphere, calcined at 1300-1400 ° C for 6-7 hours, and then cooled and crushed and sieved to obtain SrAl2O4:Eu 2+ ,Dy 3+ ,Cu + ,Mn 2+ Powder.

[0032] Furthermore, SrAl2O4:Eu 2+ ,Dy 3+ ,Cu + ,Mn 2+ The powder is immersed in an alkali metal hydroxide solution with a concentration of 0.05-0.5 mol / L and immersed at 50-70 ° C for 1-3 hours. 2+ ,Dy 3+ ,Cu + ,Mn 2+ A hydroxylation layer is formed on the surface of the powder.

[0033] Furthermore, the SrAl2O4:Eu 2+ ,Dy 3+ ,Cu + ,Mn 2+After the powder and SiO2 sol are evenly mixed in a mass ratio of 1:10-1:30, the mixture is first reacted at 20-35°C for 0.5-1.5h in the range of pH = 2.5-3.5 to form an initial SiO2 core layer, and then the pH is adjusted to 6.5-7.5, and the mixture is continued to react at 55-65°C for 1.5-3h to form a SiO2 layer, and then the pH is adjusted to 9.5-10.5, and the mixture is aged at 75-85°C for 3-5h to densify the surface of the SiO2 layer. 2+ ,Dy 3+ ,Cu + ,Mn 2+ A SiO2 layer of desired thickness is formed on the surface of the powder.

[0034] Furthermore, SrAl2O4:Eu 2+ ,Dy 3+ ,Cu + ,Mn 2+ The particle size of the powder is 1-5 μm.

[0035] Furthermore, SiO2 sol is prepared by the following method: tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS), anhydrous ethanol and deionized water are mixed, and a template agent (such as CTAB, hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide) and a silane coupling agent (such as KH-570) are added, and HCl is added dropwise to adjust the pH, and then stirred to form a transparent sol, thereby obtaining SiO2 sol;

[0036] Preferably, the volume ratio of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS), anhydrous ethanol and deionized water is (0.8-1.2):(3.5-4.5):(0.4-0.6); the concentration of the template in the reaction system is 0.005-0.02 mol / L; the mass fraction of the silane coupling agent in the reaction system is 0.4-0.6 wt%; and HCl is used to adjust the pH to 3±0.5.

[0037] Furthermore, the resin matrix is ​​prepared by the following method:

[0038] Synthesis of silicone block (PDMS):

[0039] (1) Bis-terminal hydroxypropyl silicone oil (PDMS-OH) and isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) are mixed in a molar ratio of 1:(2.0-2.5), and a catalyst (such as dibutyltin dilaurate, DBTDL) is added at a mass fraction of 0.05-0.08%. The mixture is reacted at 65-75°C for 2-4 hours under N2 or inert gas protection to generate a PDMS prepolymer containing isocyanate groups at both ends (PDMS-NCO). Hydroxyethyl acrylate (HEA) is then added at a molar ratio of PDMS-NCO:HEA = 1:(1.0-1.4) to cap the ends. The mixture is reacted at 55-65°C for 2-3 hours to obtain an acrylate-terminated silicone block (PDMS-HEA);

[0040] (2) Construction of polyurethane-acrylic resin block (PU-PMMA)

[0041] 2-Cyano-2-propylbenzotrithiocarbonate (CPBT) and toluene are mixed in a volume ratio of 1:(4-6), and bis(1,1′-(1,3,4-oxadiazole-2,5-diyldi-4,1-phenylene)-4-butoxy-2-methylbenzoate)ethylaluminum (EtAl(ODBP)2) is added as a ligand at a concentration of 0.05-0.2 mol / L to form an active RAFT system; the molar ratio of PCL:IPDI:RAFT system is 1:(1.8-2.2). : 1. Add polycaprolactone diol (PCL) and isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) to a RAFT system and react at 50-60° C. for 4-5 hours to generate a polyurethane prepolymer (PU); add a mixture of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and 2-ethylhexyl acrylate (AM-314) in a molar ratio of (8-10):1 to the PU, heat to 70-80° C. and react for 6-7 hours, and induce crosslinking by intermittent ultraviolet light irradiation to obtain a polyurethane-acrylic resin block (PU-PMMA);

[0043] PDMS-HEA and PU-PMMA are mixed in a molar ratio of 1:(0.9-1.1), and a silane coupling agent (such as KH570) is added at a mass fraction of 0.5%. After ultrasonic dispersion, a thiol-ene click reaction is carried out by UV irradiation to achieve block covalent connection. After annealing treatment and solvent evaporation, self-assembly is induced to form a layered ordered PDMS-PU-PMMA triblock structure.

[0044] Furthermore, the moisture content of the dried modified luminous powder is not greater than 0.1wt.%, because the moisture content of the modified luminous powder will affect the initial brightness of the coating. If the moisture content of the modified luminous powder is greater than 0.5wt.%, it will cause the initial brightness of the coating to decrease by ≥30%; after adding the dispersant, stirring and mixing is carried out at a temperature below 45°C. This is because when the temperature is high, the silica coating on the surface of the modified luminous powder is easily broken, which will shorten the afterglow time, and the afterglow time can be shortened to ≤12 hours.

[0045] An application of a self-luminous coating material. The self-luminous coating material of the present invention is used to prepare self-luminous signs in the fields of transportation, fire emergency, architectural landscape, and industrial facilities.

[0046] Beneficial effects:

[0047] (1) Compared with traditional binary-doped rare earth aluminates, the quaternary-doped rare earth aluminates used in this application can construct multi-level electron traps, improve the electron capture density, and prolong the afterglow time; at the same time, the surface of the quaternary-doped rare earth aluminates is modified by coating with silicon dioxide, which not only improves its dispersibility and luminous efficiency, but also helps to further reduce the porosity of the coating prepared by the subsequent self-luminous coating material.

[0048] (2) Among the quaternary doped rare earth aluminates used in this application, especially Cu + / Mn 2+ The molar ratio of Mn is the key factor in regulating both the initial brightness and the afterglow time. 2+ Too high a doping concentration will cause the host lattice Sr 2+ Site distortion, reducing the luminescence center Eu 2+ The activation efficiency of Cu + As a shallow trap providing a fast release channel, Mn 2+ As a deep trap to extend the storage time, if the molar ratio of the two is unbalanced, the continuity of the trap energy level will be destroyed, thus affecting the afterglow time. + / Mn 2+ The molar ratio is preferably limited to (1:0.3-0.5), which can make the initial luminous brightness of the modified luminous powder ≥1.8cd / m 2 , afterglow time ≥16 hours (25℃ darkroom environment).

[0049] (3) This application uses two types of modified luminous powder with different particle sizes, mainly to reduce the porosity of the coating through the complementary effect of particle sizes, which can reduce the porosity of the coating to ≤1.2%. In addition, the two particle sizes used in this application have a specific surface area of ​​1.6-2.0m 2 / g range, which can avoid the resin-powder interface defects caused by the excessive specific surface area of ​​nanopowders and effectively solve the dispersion problem.

[0050] (4) This application uses a silicone-polyurethane-polymethyl methacrylate triblock copolymer as the resin matrix, and forms a "rigid and flexible" structure through the copolymerization of three polymer segments. In particular, the PDMS segment can effectively improve the low-temperature crack resistance, and the PMMA segment can significantly improve the mechanical strength, so that the resin matrix has flexibility (-40°C crack resistance), weather resistance and high mechanical strength, meeting the use requirements of different working conditions.

[0051] (5) This application uses aluminum stearate as an anti-settling agent and hydroxylated nano-scale fumed silica as an inorganic filler. The two can form an interpenetrating network through coordination bonds, forming a dual anti-settling mechanism of steric hindrance and electrostatic stabilization, and can also make the dispersion degree D90 of the inorganic filler ≤ 5μm. In addition, the hydroxyl group of the inorganic filler chemically reacts with the isocyanate group (-NCO) in the resin matrix, which can effectively enhance the interfacial bonding strength between the inorganic filler and the resin matrix, thereby improving the adhesion of the coating.

[0052] (6) This application utilizes phenolic compounds as light stabilizers, which form π-π conjugated protection with the siloxane bonds of the resin matrix through intramolecular hydrogen bonds, further inhibiting UV degradation. Furthermore, the synergistic effects of the resin matrix, light stabilizer, and anti-settling agent can reduce the luminous efficiency decay rate of the coating to ≤8% after one year of outdoor exposure, while maintaining adhesion at level 3B.

[0053] (7) The self-luminous coating material described in this application has the properties of high brightness, long afterglow, strong adhesion, and aging resistance. It has good application prospects in the self-luminous identification systems of the transportation field (such as reflective markings on highways, tunnel emergency guidance signs, airport runway boundary markings, etc.), fire emergency field (such as safety exit indication systems, escape route ground markings, fire facility positioning markings, etc.), architectural landscape field (such as building exterior wall decorative lighting, garden trail night guidance, underwater landscape lighting systems, etc.), industrial facility field (such as chemical plant pipeline markings, oil and gas storage tank safety warnings, mine underground navigation systems, etc.) and other fields.

Then, a silicon source solution (such as 0.1 mol / L Na2SiO3 solution) is added to adjust the pH to 10 and the temperature is adjusted to 80 ° C. The mixture is stirred and aged for 4 hours to densify the surface of the SiO2 layer. Finally, the mixture is centrifuged and washed 3 times with anhydrous ethanol to obtain SrAl2O4:Eu with a surface coated with a 70 nm thick SiO2 layer. 2+ ,Dy 3+ ,Cu+ ,Mn 2+ powder;

[0066] (2) Preparation of resin matrix

[0067] 2.1) A bifunctional hydroxypropyl silicone oil (PDMS-OH, Mn = 2000 g / mol) and isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) were mixed in a molar ratio of 1:2.2. A 0.05 wt.% mass fraction of dibutyltin dilaurate (DBTDL) catalyst was added (the mass fraction of DBTDL in the reaction system was 0.05%). The mixture was reacted at 70°C under nitrogen for 3 h to produce a PDMS prepolymer containing isocyanate groups at both ends (PDMS-NCO). The prepolymer was then capped with hydroxyethyl acrylate (HEA) in a molar ratio of PDMS-NCO:HEA = 1:1.2. The mixture was reacted at 60°C for 2 h to obtain an acrylate-terminated silicone block (PDMS-HEA).

[0068] 2.2) 2-Cyano-2-propylbenzotrithiocarbonate (CPBT) and toluene were mixed in a volume ratio of 1:5, and EtAl(ODBP)2 was added as a ligand at a molar concentration of 0.1 mol / L (the molar concentration of EtAl(ODBP)2 in the reaction system was 0.1 mol / L) to form an active RAFT system.

A mixture of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and AM-314 in a molar ratio of 9:1 was added dropwise to the PU, and the mixture was heated to 70°C for 6 h.
