Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] Icing and snow are very common natural phenomena, and there are many types, such as: glaze icing, mixed rime icing, ice fog icing, frost, snow, etc. Severe icing and snow phenomena can pose a certain threat and harm to social life. As a basic industry of the national economy and people's livelihood, the rapid development of the power industry, the safe operation of the power grid is particularly important, and the environment of the power transmission line is complex and diverse, which will be affected by various environmental factors, especially in cold winter, the power transmission line in high humidity and low temperature environment is prone to icing.

[0003] Anti-icing coating technology has the advantages of low energy consumption, environmental protection, economic value, etc., and is increasingly important. At present, there are many coating anti-icing technologies, among which super-hydrophobic coating technology is a widely used technology, but its surface structure is fragile and easily damaged, affecting the icing effect. Super-lubricating coating technology is a kind of biomimetic material based on natural pitcher plant, with micro-nano porous structure as the structure lock, and by filling the pore structure with hydrophobic liquid material in different ways, a surface coating with low adhesion is formed. Compared with the super-hydrophobic coating structure, the liquid-liquid contact mode is replaced by the gas-liquid contact mode.

[0004] At present, there are relevant patents and papers and other materials researching on such anti-icing coating. For example, application number CN202510415449.2 discloses a kind of anti-icing super-hydrophobic super-smooth nano coating material and its preparation method and application, but its preparation method is complex, the production cost is low in economy, and the ice shedding capacity is not specified; for example, application number CN202311213376.6 discloses a kind of hydrophobic lubricating type anti-icing coating, but the hydrophobic lubricating type anti-icing coating has poor adhesion to the base material of the power transmission line, and the coating is easy to fall off during application.

[0005] Therefore, in order to solve the problems of fragile surface structure, easy damage of super-hydrophobic anti-icing coating, poor adhesion to the base material (<5MPa) of super-hydrophobic super-smooth coating, poor weather resistance (500h coating easy to crack, easy to powder and fall off), strong ice adhesion (>5N), and low static contact angle (100°-110°), how to provide an epoxy-based solvent-free low-adhesion easy-ice-shedding coating layer, a preparation method and application thereof is a problem to be solved at present.

[0118] The above paint is brushed on the surface of the treated aluminum plate, and after curing at 25°C for 24h, it is maintained for 7 days. Then, the coating performance is tested. See Table 1 and Figures 3-6 .

[0119] Table 1 Performance comparison of Example 1 and each comparative example

[0120]

[0121] It can be seen from the test data of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-8 that the coating performance of the three modified epoxy adhesives is better than that of the two modified epoxy adhesives, the coating performance of the two modified epoxy adhesives is better than that of the single modified epoxy adhesive, and the coating performance of the single modified epoxy adhesive is better than that of the ordinary epoxy adhesive; that is, by using the modified epoxy adhesive of the application, the adhesion of the coating to the substrate is enhanced, the aging resistance, the average ice adhesion, the relative ice delay time, and the static contact angle are all improved to different degrees.

[0122] Comparative Example 9: Compared with Example 1, no epoxy-terminated polydimethylsiloxane is added in the coating formulation;

[0123] Comparative Example 10: Compared with Example 1, no lubricant silicone oil component is added in the coating formulation;

[0124] Comparative Example 11: Compared with Example 1, no reinforcing material component is added in the coating formulation;

[0125] Comparative Example 12: Compared with Example 1, no functional material component is added in the coating formulation;

[0127] Table 2 Performance comparison of Example 1 and each comparative example

[0128]

[0129] It can be seen from the test data of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 8-12 that epoxy-terminated polydimethylsiloxane, lubricant silicone oil, reinforcing material, and functional material all have different degrees of influence on the ice adhesion of the coating, especially the non-addition of the lubricant silicone oil component as a functional component of the coating structure, which increases the friction between the coating and the ice layer, shortens the ice delay time, and reduces the static water contact angle, directly leading to the inablity of the coating to remove ice; the non-addition of epoxy-terminated polydimethylsiloxane or reinforcing material or functional material leads to low porosity of the coating, reduced lubricant migration channels, reduced lubricity of the coating surface, and increased adhesion between the coating and the ice layer, resulting in reduced cycle ice removal performance of the coating; the non-addition of the functional flaky material increases the destructive effect of ultraviolet light on the coating, leading to the breakage of the molecular chain without shielding and protection, and the occurrence of deterioration.

[0130] The above coating is brushed on the surface of the treated aluminum plate, carbon steel plate, ceramic sheet, and glass sheet, and after curing at 25°C for 24h, it is maintained for 7 days. Then, the coating performance is tested. See Table 3.

[0131] Table 3 Performance comparison of Example 1 on different substrate surfaces

[0132]

[0133] The coating is tested by brushing on different substrate surfaces, and it is found that the performance stability of the coating is good, but there is a certain difference in the relative icing delay time, which is mainly due to the difference in the thermal conductivity coefficient of each substrate. The thermal conductivity coefficient of metal material is large, and the heat conduction efficiency is high. The thermal conductivity coefficient of ceramic glass material is small, and the heat conduction efficiency is low, so that the relative icing delay time of metal material is shorter than that of glass ceramic material. After each coating after the cycle icing is recoated and maintained again, each performance is not obviously changed. After the coating is polished by 400 mesh sandpaper with 200g load, the performance of each coating is not changed again.

[0134] The application is not limited to the structures described above and shown in the drawings, and various modifications and changes can be made without departing from the scope thereof. The scope of the application is only limited by the appended claims.
