Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of powder coating technology, specifically relating to a method for preparing and applying a low-temperature rapid-curing roll coating powder. Background Technology

[0002] Metal coils, as a high-efficiency and energy-saving metal processing substrate, are widely used in construction, home appliances, transportation, furniture, and other fields. The performance of their surface protective coating directly determines the service life and application scenarios of the metal coils. Therefore, metal coils need to be coated during processing. Currently, liquid coatings are the main pre-coating agents for metal coils, but the large amount of volatile organic compounds they release puts significant pressure on the environment, greatly hindering their application. Powder coatings, due to their solvent-free evaporation, environmental friendliness, high coating utilization rate, and excellent performance, have become a new type of coating for the surface protection of metal coils. Powder coatings are solid powdered synthetic resin coatings composed of solid resins, pigments, fillers, and additives. Their dispersion medium is air, and they feature solvent-free pollution, 100% film formation, and low energy consumption.

[0003] Traditional metal powder coatings require high curing temperatures, making them unsuitable for coil production lines (where thin substrates deform at high temperatures). Low-temperature curing powders (such as UV curing) require specialized equipment, resulting in high costs and insufficient adhesion. Furthermore, the shortcomings of traditional metal coil powder coatings, including insufficient long-term corrosion resistance, lack of self-healing capabilities, inadequate antibacterial properties, and weak self-cleaning functions, have become key bottlenecks restricting their application in high-end fields. Therefore, developing a novel metal coil powder coating that can cure rapidly at low temperatures and possesses excellent antibacterial, anti-corrosion, and mechanical properties is of great significance for improving the service life of metal coils and expanding their application scenarios. Summary of the Invention

This method achieves low-temperature curing and rapid film formation through component synergy, with high process adaptability. Furthermore, the addition of functional fillers, modified sericite, and modified nano-alumina enhances the corrosion resistance, mechanical strength, and environmental adaptability of the powder coating film.

[0005] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0006] A method for preparing a low-temperature, rapid-curing coil powder coating includes the following steps:

[0011] The modified sericite is formed by modifying sericite through cerium salt intercalation, then modifying the surface with tannic acid iron complex, and finally coating it with polydopamine and benzotriazole corrosion inhibitor through dopamine self-polymerization.

[0012] The modified nano-alumina was prepared by in-situ growth of nano-zinc oxide on the surface of nano-alumina using a hydrothermal method, followed by loading Ag and carbon quantum dots for co-modification, and finally grafting fluorosilane to achieve superhydrophobic modification.

[0014] Preferably, the preparation method of modified sericite includes the following steps:

[0015] (1) Disperse sericite in deionized water, sonicate for 20-40 min, add 5% of the total mass of sericite cerium nitrate, stir at 80℃ for 4-6 h, centrifuge and wash until neutral, and vacuum dry at 80℃ to obtain cerium salt intercalated modified sericite.

[0027] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0028] This invention relates to a low-temperature, rapid-curing coil powder coating. It uses carboxylated polyester resin as the main resin, β-hydroxyalkylamide as the curing agent, and epoxy resin as an auxiliary resin. An organotin catalyst significantly reduces the activation energy of the reaction between β-hydroxyalkylamide and polyester, promoting low-temperature curing. A composite leveling agent balances wetting and anti-cratering properties, while benzoin inhibits bubbles generated by the β-hydroxyalkylamide reaction. Through synergistic component action, low-temperature curing and rapid film formation are achieved. Functional fillers, modified sericite and modified nano-alumina, are added, synergistically enhancing the corrosion resistance, mechanical strength, and environmental adaptability of the powder coating film. Compared to traditional coil coatings, this invention's powder coating improves salt spray resistance by over 100% through physical barrier, chemical repair, and superhydrophobic synergy. It also possesses self-healing, antibacterial, and self-cleaning properties, making it suitable for applications such as building exteriors, appliance casings, and automotive parts requiring corrosion resistance, weather resistance, and self-cleaning. This low-temperature, rapid-curing powder coating is compatible with existing coil coating lines, requires no equipment modification, and has high process adaptability.

[0029] In this coating, the modified sericite flake structure is stacked in parallel, forming a labyrinth effect that prolongs the penetration path of corrosive media such as water, oxygen, and chloride ions, thus improving the coating's resistance to penetration. When corrosion occurs on the metal surface (local pH fluctuations between acidic and alkaline), the polydopamine coating structure is destroyed, releasing benzotriazole corrosion inhibitor, while the interlayer... Migrating to corrosion sites, the Ce-based passivation film and the triazole adsorption film work together to inhibit corrosion; the polar groups (hydroxyl and amino groups) of the tannic acid iron complex and the polydopamine coating can form hydrogen bonds with the carboxyl groups of the polyester resin, thereby enhancing the bonding force between sericite and the resin matrix and reducing interface defects.

[0030] Modified nano-alumina grafted with heptadecafluorodecyltrimethoxysilane introduces low surface energy fluorocarbon chains, which, combined with the micro-nano rough structure of nano-zinc oxide, results in a coating surface contact angle >150°, reducing moisture adhesion and penetration, and lowering the probability of corrosive media intrusion. The nano-alumina is uniformly dispersed in the resin matrix, filling the micropores of the coating and enhancing its hardness and impact resistance through a nano-reinforcement effect. Ag nanoparticles are slowly released... It inhibits bacterial growth on the coating surface (especially in humid environments), and carbon quantum dots regulate the interfacial charge to stabilize Ag nanoparticles, preventing their oxidation and aggregation, and extending the antibacterial lifespan.

[0069] Performance testing

[0070] The powder coatings prepared in Example 5 and Comparative Examples 1-3 were subjected to performance testing. Cold-rolled steel plates of 150mm × 70mm × 0.8mm were used, and after degreasing, rust removal, and water washing to neutrality, they were dried for later use. Each group of powder coatings was uniformly sprayed onto the substrate surface using an electrostatic powder coating machine, controlling the coating thickness to be 60±5μm. After curing in an oven according to the process, and naturally cooling to room temperature, the following performance tests were conducted after 24 hours. The data are shown in Table 1 below:

[0071] (1) Neutral salt spray test: According to GB / T1771-2007 standard, the sample was scratched and then placed in a salt spray chamber at 35±2℃. Spray a 5% NaCl solution. Take out the sample after 500h, 800h, 900h and 1200h, rinse the surface salt frost with deionized water, dry and observe, record the blistering and rusting of the coating, and measure the corrosion spread width at the scratch.

[0072] (2) Water contact angle test: In accordance with GB / T30447-2013 standard, a contact angle measuring instrument is used to automatically analyze the water droplet profile and calculate the contact angle;

[0073] (3) Pencil hardness test: Refer to GB / T6739-2006 standard, select pencils with hardness grades from 2B to 3H for scratch test, until the pencil can make continuous visible scratches on the coating surface (without penetrating the coating), the hardness of the pencil is the coating hardness grade.

[0074] (4) Falling ball impact strength test: Refer to GB / T2423.5-1995 standard. Fix the sample with the coated surface facing up on the falling ball impact tester. The steel ball has a mass of 1000g and a diameter of 16mm. Starting from a height of 30cm, release the steel ball to fall freely and impact the coating surface (the impact point is ≥25mm from the edge of the sample). After each impact, observe whether the coating cracks or peels off. If the coating is not damaged, increase the height (increase by 10cm each time) and repeat the test until the coating shows visible cracks or peels off. Record the height at this time as the impact strength.

[0075] (5) Self-healing efficiency test: Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was used with a three-electrode system, and the sample was used as the working electrode (exposed area 1 cm²). 2 A platinum sheet was used as the counter electrode, a saturated calomel electrode as the reference electrode, and a 3.5% NaCl solution was used as the electrolyte. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (frequency range 10) was performed on the unscratched coating. -2 ~10 5 (Hz, AC signal amplitude 10mV), record the low-frequency impedance modulus |Z|0. Then, use a blade to make a 1cm long scratch in the working electrode area (penetrating the coating to the substrate). Immerse the scratched sample in the electrolyte and test the impedance spectrum at 0h, 24h, and 48h respectively. Record the low-frequency impedance modulus |Z| at 48h. t Calculate the self-repair efficiency, self-repair efficiency = (|Z|) t / |Z|0)×100%, reflecting the degree of coating impedance recovery (the higher the value, the better the self-healing effect);

[0076] (6) Antibacterial test: According to GB / T21510-2008 standard, Escherichia coli (ATCC25922) was inoculated into nutrient broth medium and cultured at 37℃ for 24 h. The culture was then diluted with physiological saline to a bacterial concentration of 10. 6 ~10 7CFU / mL, take a 2cm×2cm coated sample, sterilize with UV for 30 min, place it in a sterile petri dish, add 0.2mL of bacterial suspension, spread it evenly on the coating surface, cover with sterile polyethylene film, and incubate at 37℃ for 24 h. After incubation, add 10mL of physiological saline to rinse the coating surface, take 1mL of the rinsing solution, serially dilute it, spread it on nutrient agar medium, incubate at 37℃ for 48 h, count the colonies, and calculate the antibacterial rate. Antibacterial rate = (number of colonies in control group - number of colonies in experimental group) / number of colonies in control group × 100%.

[0077] Table 1. Performance test results of low-temperature rapid-curing coil powder coatings

[0078]

[0079] The data in Table 1 shows that:

[0080] Example 5 exhibited the best salt spray resistance and the largest water contact angle, attributed to the synergistic effect of modified sericite and nano-alumina. The sheet-like structure of the modified sericite forms a physical barrier, delaying the penetration of corrosive media; the pH-responsive release of benzotriazole and... A passivation film forms at the scratches, achieving self-repair. The modified nano-alumina, with its heptadecafluorodecyltrimethoxysilane-grafted fluorocarbon chains (low surface energy) and the micro-nano rough structure of nano-zinc oxide, synergistically achieves superhydrophobicity, further blocking corrosion pathways. Comparative Example 1's salt spray resistance decreased to 800h. Although the superhydrophobicity of the nano-alumina still blocked water, it lacked the physical barrier and self-repair function of sericite, and corrosion at the scratches could not be inhibited, with an accelerated spread rate. Comparative Example 2 withstood 900h of salt spray. The barrier and self-repair function of sericite remained effective, but the lack of a superhydrophobic layer allowed moisture to easily adhere to and penetrate the coating surface, resulting in a shorter anti-corrosion time than Example 5. Comparative Example 3 performed the worst. Lacking modified nano-alumina, the coating surface relied solely on the polar groups of the resin itself, failing to form a low surface energy and rough structure. It exhibited either hydrophobicity or hydrophilicity, allowing moisture to easily spread and penetrate, leading to rapid intrusion of corrosive media.

[0081] Example 5 and Comparative Example 1 achieved a pencil hardness of 3H, while Comparative Examples 2 and 3 only achieved 2H. This is because the modified nano-alumina is uniformly dispersed in the resin matrix, refining the coating's microstructure through the "nano-filling effect" and thus increasing hardness; while the modified sericite contributed little to the increase in hardness. Example 5 and Comparative Example 1 achieved an impact resistance of 50 cm, while Comparative Example 2 decreased to 40 cm, and Comparative Example 3 only reached 30 cm. The modified nano-alumina enhanced the toughness of the resin matrix through interfacial interactions, absorbing impact energy; although the modified sericite could enhance flexural strength, its effect on improving impact strength was relatively weak.

[0082] Example 5 and Comparative Example 2 both exhibit self-healing efficiencies >80%, and both contain modified sericite. Their polydopamine and benzotriazole coatings release benzotriazole when the pH fluctuates at the scratch site. The migration forms a passivation film, and the self-healing effect is demonstrated through electrochemical impedance recovery. The self-healing efficiency of Comparative Examples 1 and 3 is ≤10% because they lack modified sericite and have no responsive corrosion inhibitor release system, so the scratches cannot be repaired autonomously and the impedance is almost unrecovered.

[0083] Example 5 and Comparative Example 1 both exhibited antibacterial rates >98%, and both contained modified nano-alumina with slowly released nano-silver on their surface. The carbon quantum dots disrupt bacterial cell membranes and enzyme activity, achieving highly efficient antibacterial activity; their stabilizing effect extends the antibacterial lifespan of the nano-silver. The antibacterial rates of Comparative Examples 2 and 3 (<66%) are due to the lack of modified nano-alumina. The release system only has a weak antibacterial effect due to the resin itself, resulting in poor antibacterial efficacy.
