Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of anti-corrosion coating technology, and in particular to a weather-resistant anti-corrosion coating for the protection of metal tanks and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Metal oil tanks are large, regularly shaped containers used to store oil products. Most are made of steel, and it's reported that over 90% of fuel oil is stored in metal tanks. However, metal tanks are exposed to complex environments such as humidity, salt spray, temperature fluctuations, and chemical corrosion for extended periods, leading to severe electrochemical corrosion and physical aging on their surfaces. This significantly impacts their service life and can potentially cause leaks, explosions, and other safety accidents. Furthermore, due to the long-term sealing of metal oil tanks and their constant contact with the ground at the bottom, large amounts of sulfate-reducing bacteria easily grow on the inner walls and bottom of the tanks, releasing hydrogen sulfide gas and further exacerbating corrosion.

[0003] Based on the above, improving the corrosion resistance of metal tanks has always been a research hotspot in the coatings field. For example, the invention patent with announcement number CN102674776B uses silicate cement, self-crosslinking acrylate copolymer emulsion, UEA calcium sulfoaluminate expanding agent, polycarboxylic acid high-performance water-reducing agent, etc. to formulate inorganic-based metal oil tank corrosion protection materials. Another invention patent with announcement number CN110408314B prepares conductive polymers and polyfluorosilane polymers. The conductive polymers contain a large number of hydroxyl groups, which can react with the isocyanate groups in toluene diisocyanate. At the same time, the polyfluorosilane polymers contain a large number of carboxylic acid groups, which can also react with the isocyanate groups. This allows the conductive polymer chains and polyfluorosilane polymer chains to polymerize, crosslink, and solidify through toluene diisocyanate to form a network structure. Conductive graphite powder is then interspersed in the network structure, forming conductive pathways between adjacent conductive polymers.

[0004] However, the anti-corrosion coatings mentioned above still need to be improved in terms of their resistance to microbial corrosion and their long-term stability in hydrogen sulfide environments. In particular, in the long-term closed environment inside and at the bottom of metal oil tanks, the existing coatings are prone to failure due to the long-term release of hydrogen sulfide by sulfate-reducing bacteria. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of this, the purpose of this invention is to propose a weather-resistant and anti-corrosion coating for the protection of metal tanks and its preparation method. The coating utilizes the reaction of octacarboxylated POSS with the amide bond of 3,4-diaminoquinoline to generate a quinoline-containing POSS derivative, which is then applied to the anti-corrosion coating. Through a triple mechanism of chemical passivation, physical barrier and biological inhibition, the weather resistance and anti-corrosion performance of the coating are significantly improved.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a weather-resistant and anti-corrosion coating for the protection of metal tanks, comprising, by weight: 100 parts of rapid-hardening sulfoaluminate cement, 40-55 parts of quicklime, 50-65 parts of fly ash, 60-80 parts of quartz powder, 10-20 parts of reinforcing fiber, 5-10 parts of air-entraining agent, 10-20 parts of foam stabilizer, 60-80 parts of waterborne epoxy resin, 3-5 parts of polycarboxylate high-performance water-reducing agent, 4-8 parts of calcium formate, 65-85 parts of water, 15-25 parts of quinoline-containing POSS derivative, 1-2 parts of curing agent, and 0.5-1 parts of silane coupling agent;

[0007] The quinoline-containing POSS derivative is prepared by reacting octacarboxylated POSS with 3,4-diaminoquinoline.

[0008] Furthermore, the method for preparing the quinoline-containing POSS derivative includes the following steps:

[0009] A1: Add octacarboxylated POSS to tetrahydrofuran solvent and stir until completely dissolved to obtain a clear POSS solution;

[0010] A2: Heat the POSS solution to 55-60℃, add 3,4-diaminoquinoline, stir for 20-30 min, add EDC·HCl, and then stir at 40-60℃ for 6-12 h. Remove the solvent by rotary evaporation, and then dry under vacuum for 12 h to obtain the quinoline-containing POSS derivative.

[0011] Furthermore, the ratio of the amounts of octacarboxylated POSS, tetrahydrofuran solvent, 3,4-diaminoquinoline, and EDC·HCl is 1 mmol:30 mL:8 mmol:(20-30) mg.

[0012] Furthermore, the particle size of the quartz powder is ≤200 mesh.

[0013] Furthermore, the reinforcing fiber is selected from one of basalt fiber, PE fiber, and glass fiber.

[0014] Furthermore, the gasifying agent is selected from one of sodium bicarbonate, ammonium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate, and potassium carbonate.

[0015] Furthermore, the foam stabilizer is selected from one of sodium α-alkenyl sulfonate, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinylpyrrolidone, casein, and soy protein.

[0016] Furthermore, the curing agent is selected from one of ethylenediamine, hexamethylenediamine, diethylenetriamine, and triethylenetetramine.

[0017] Furthermore, the silane coupling agent is selected from one of KH550 silane coupling agent, KH602 silane coupling agent, and KH792 silane coupling agent.

[0018] The present invention further provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned weather-resistant and anti-corrosion coating for metal tank protection, comprising the following steps:

[0019] S1: At room temperature, rapid-hardening sulfoaluminate cement, quicklime, fly ash, quartz powder, reinforcing fiber, air-entraining agent and foam stabilizer are mixed evenly to obtain composition A;

[0020] S2: At room temperature, waterborne epoxy resin, polycarboxylate high-performance water-reducing agent, calcium formate and water are mixed evenly to obtain composition B;

[0021] S3: At room temperature, POSS derivatives containing quinoline, curing agents, and silane coupling agents are mixed evenly to obtain composition C;

[0022] S4: At 30-50℃, after uniformly mixing composition A, composition B and composition C, the weather-resistant and anti-corrosion coating for protecting metal tanks is obtained.

[0023] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0024] This invention is the first to utilize the acylation reaction between octacarboxylated POSS and 3,4-diaminoquinoline to prepare a quinoline-containing POSS derivative with a structure of "cage-like POSS core and quinoline-based rigid outer arm". This derivative is then used as an anti-corrosion synergist in coatings, significantly improving the weather resistance and anti-corrosion performance of the coating through a triple mechanism of physical barrier, chemical passivation and microbial inhibition.

[0025] First, the quinoline-containing POSS derivative undergoes a cross-linking reaction with waterborne epoxy resin, resulting in a uniformly dispersed and integrated composition within the coating, forming a dense three-dimensional network barrier. Simultaneously, the POSS framework within the quinoline-containing POSS derivative significantly inhibits the corrosive effects of H2S gas and delays the degradation of Cl-. - The effect of osmosis;

[0026] Secondly, the nitrogen atom on the pyridine ring in quinoline POSS derivatives interacts with Fe through lone pair electrons. 2+ / Fe 3+ A complex reaction occurs, forming a dense chemical passivation film at the metal / coating interface, which inhibits the anodic reaction, reduces the corrosion current density, and blocks the direct contact between the metal tank and H2S gas.

[0027] Finally, the unique "one-cage octaquinoline" multivalent structure of the quinoline-containing POSS derivative enables it to achieve an antibacterial rate of up to 99.8% against sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB), thereby avoiding the corrosive effect of H2S produced by SRB metabolism on the metal can. When the derivative comes into contact with SRB, the multiple quinoline rings in its structure can simultaneously target and bind to multiple sites on the bacterial surface, forming a synergistic effect similar to "molecular clamps". This may be the main reason why the quinoline-containing POSS derivative exhibits a higher sulfate-reducing bacteria inhibition rate. At the same time, the nanoscale cage structure of POSS also helps to improve the dispersibility and stability of the quinoline group. Detailed Implementation

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0029] The quinoline-containing POSS derivatives used in the following examples were prepared by reacting octacarboxylated POSS with 3,4-diaminoquinoline. The preparation method includes the following steps:

[0031] A2: Heat the POSS solution to 60℃, add 3,4-diaminoquinoline, stir for 30 min, add EDC·HCl, stir at 55℃ for 12 h, remove the solvent by rotary evaporation, and vacuum dry for 12 h to obtain the quinoline-containing POSS derivative.

[0032] The ratio of the amounts of octacarboxylated POSS, tetrahydrofuran solvent, 3,4-diaminoquinoline, and EDC·HCl is 1 mmol:30 mL:8 mmol:25 mg.
