Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of polymer material synthesis and preparation technology, specifically relating to a class of silicon / nitrogen group-functionalized S(EB / EP)S thermoplastic elastomers and their preparation methods. Background Technology

[0002] Styrene-based thermoplastic elastomers (TPS) are the most produced and fastest-growing thermoplastic elastomer materials in recent years. They are block copolymers synthesized by unterminated ionic polymerization. At room temperature, TPS is characterized by the presence of hard and soft segments (or phases) within the chains of a single polymer or within an interpenetrating matrix formed by the constituent materials. TPS is a triblock copolymer, with polystyrene (PS) at both ends of its molecule and a rubber-like polyolefin (such as polybutadiene, polyisoprene, ethylene-propylene copolymer, ethylene-butene copolymer, ethylene-propylene-butene copolymer, and polyisobutylene) in the middle. PS acts as the hard segment (plastic segment) of TPS, while the polyolefin acts as the soft segment (rubber segment). Since the hard and soft segments have two separate phases and their own glass transition temperatures, they exhibit vulcanized rubber characteristics at room temperature but undergo plastic flow at high temperatures. The glass transition temperature of the PS hard segment is approximately 70–80°C, while the glass transition temperature of the polyolefin soft segment is below -40°C. At room temperature, the PS hard segments lose fluidity, associate with each other or "crosslink" and solidify to form physically crosslinked regions, which act as reinforcing agents. The polyolefin intermediate phase is relatively flexible, giving TPS flexibility. This crosslinked network structure formed by PS hard segments and polyolefin soft segments is similar to the crosslinked network structure in vulcanized rubber, thus making TPS exhibit thermoplastic elastomer characteristics.

[0003] Styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS), styrene-isoprene-styrene (SIS), and styrene-butadiene / isoprene-styrene (SIBS) are mainly composed of unsaturated chains in the rubber phase. The other type consists of saturated chains in the rubber phase, including styrene-ethylene-butene-styrene (SEBS), styrene-ethylene / propylene-styrene (SEPS), styrene-ethylene / propylene / butene-styrene (SEB / EPS), and styrene-isobutylene-styrene (SIBS) block copolymers. The earliest industrialized SBS and SIS, due to the presence of numerous reactive unsaturated olefin double bonds in their molecular chains, exhibited poor heat resistance and abrasion resistance.

[0004] TPS exhibits rubber-like characteristics over a wide temperature range. At room temperature, it displays rubber-like properties while also possessing excellent processability. At high temperatures, it can be plasticized and molded, exhibiting good thermal stability and physical and mechanical properties, allowing for repeated processing. Furthermore, it demonstrates excellent biocompatibility and is friendly to humans and the environment, finding applications in in vitro medical fields such as drug and blood transfusion and storage, as well as in in vivo implantation fields such as drug-eluting stents and soft tissue replacement. The diversity of medical applications places significant demands on the varying physical, chemical, and biological properties of TPS. Therefore, further physical and chemical modifications of TPS are needed to regulate its physical and mechanical properties, improve biocompatibility, enhance its performance, and acquire new functions to meet diverse performance requirements.

[0005] In summary, how to prepare high-performance styrene-based thermoplastic elastomers, improve their comprehensive mechanical properties and compatibility, and further expand their application scope and applicable scenarios is a technical problem that this application urgently needs to solve.

[0028] Secondly, this invention provides a method for preparing a type of silicon / nitrogen group-functionalized S(EB / EP)S thermoplastic elastomer, comprising the following steps:

[0029] Step S1: Prepare polystyrene active centers functionalized with silicon / nitrogen groups:

[0030] A metered polarity modifier is added to a reactor in a non-polar hydrocarbon solvent. Depending on the monomer feeding sequence and ratio, metered amounts of styrene, silicon / nitrogen-functionalized 1,1-diphenylethylene derivative monomers, alkyl lithium initiators, and polarity modifiers are added. The mixture is stirred until homogeneous. The initiation reaction temperature is 10℃-90℃, and the reaction time is 0.5-48 h. This generates silicon / nitrogen-functionalized polystyrene active centers.

The reaction temperature is controlled at 50-110℃ and the reaction is carried out for 30-150 min to obtain a linear / star-coupled silicon / nitrogen-functionalized styrene-butadiene / isoprene block copolymer solution.

[0034] Step S4, prepare S(EB / EP)S thermoplastic elastomer functionalized with silicon / nitrogen groups:

[0035] The linear / star-coupled styrene-butadiene / isoprene block copolymer solution containing silicon / nitrogen groups was transferred to a high-pressure hydrogenation reactor, diluted with solvent, and then a metered hydrogenation catalyst and hydrogen were added to carry out the hydrogenation reaction. The hydrogen pressure was controlled at 0.1 MPa to 10 MPa, the reaction temperature was controlled at 50℃ to 200℃, and the hydrogenation reaction was carried out for 1 to 20 hours to obtain S(EB / EP)S thermoplastic elastomer containing silicon / nitrogen groups.

[0036] Further, in step S1, a metered polar modifier is added to the reactor in a nonpolar hydrocarbon solvent as system A;

[0037] According to the monomer ratio, a measured amount of silicon / nitrogen functionalized 1,1-diphenylethylene derivative monomer and alkyl lithium initiator were added to system A. The initiation reaction temperature was 10℃-90℃. Then, a measured amount of styrene monomer was added to form system B, and a polymer with silicon / nitrogen functionalized initiation end was synthesized.

[0038] Alternatively, a measured amount of 1,1-diphenylethylene derivative and styrene monomer can be added to system A according to the monomer ratio, followed by a measured amount of alkyl lithium initiator. The initiation reaction temperature is 10℃-90℃, which is used as system C to synthesize a silicon / nitrogen functionalized polymer in the chain.

[0039] Alternatively, 1,1-diphenylethylene derivative monomers with silicon / nitrogen functionalization can be added to system B / system A to form system D, thereby synthesizing polymers with different silicon / nitrogen functionalization at the chain ends and in the chain.

[0040] In the B / C / D system, by controlling the ratio of styrene monomer, silicon / nitrogen-functionalized 1,1-diphenylethylene derivative monomer, alkyl lithium initiator and polarity modifier, as well as the silicon / nitrogen-functionalized 1,1-diphenylethylene derivative monomer, the distribution, properties (types), quantity and mass percentage of silicon / nitrogen-functionalized 1,1-diphenylethylene derivative in the chain ends and chain of polystyrene blocks can be precisely controlled.

In the prepared silicon / nitrogen group-functionalized styrene block, the silicon / nitrogen group-functionalized 1,1-diphenylethylene derivative is located in the middle and at the end of the block chain.

[0045] When the total content of silicon / nitrogen functionalized 1,1-diphenylethylene derivative monomers accounts for more than 10% of the total monomer content by mass concentration, and the mass concentration of 1,1-diphenylethylene derivative monomers with monosilane groups or monosiloxy groups or siloxy / silane groups added to styrene is 5%-10%, or the mass concentration of 1,1-diphenylethylene derivative monomers with siloxy / amine groups or silane / amine groups added to styrene is 10%-15%, or the mass concentration of 1,1-diphenylethylene derivative monomers with mono / diamine groups to styrene is 8%-12%, the silicon / nitrogen functionalized 1,1-diphenylethylene derivatives in the prepared silicon / nitrogen functionalized styrene block are located in the middle and at the end of the block chain.

[0046] The nonpolar hydrocarbon solvents used in this invention are selected from at least one of nonpolar aromatic hydrocarbons and nonpolar aliphatic hydrocarbons, generally selected from: benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylene, pentane, hexane, heptane, octane, cyclohexane, mixed aromatic hydrocarbons (such as: mixed xylene), mixed aliphatic hydrocarbons (such as: raffinate oil), preferably selected from: benzene, toluene, pentane, hexane, cyclohexane.

[0047] Further, the polarity modifier in step S1 is selected from at least one of oxygen-containing, nitrogen-containing, sulfur-containing, phosphorus-containing polar compounds and alkoxy metal compounds, preferably tetrahydrofuran, 2,2-di(2-tetrahydrofuranyl)propane, 2,2-di(5-methyl-2-tetrahydrofuran)propane, ethyl tetrahydrofuranyl ether, tetramethylethylenediamine, pentamethyldiethylenetriamine, dipiperidinyl ethane, potassium / sodium tert-butoxide, and diethylene glycol diethyl ether.

[0048] Further, in step S1, the alkyl lithium initiator is selected from at least one of the monofunctional alkyl lithium RLi initiators that can be used for the anionic polymerization of butadiene, isoprene, and styrene, where R is a hydrocarbon group with 2-20 carbon atoms, which can be an alkane group or an aromatic group, preferably n-butyllithium, sec-butyllithium, and tert-butyllithium.

[0049] Further, the linear coupling agent in step S3 is selected from M(CH3)2Cl2 or 1,2-dichloroethane or 1,2-dibromoethane, where M is selected from silicon (Si), tin (Sn), lead (Pb), titanium (Ti), germanium (Ge), and preferably dichlorodimethylsilane.

[0050] Furthermore, in step S3, the star-shaped coupling agent is selected from two coupling agents with different coupling mechanisms. One is selected from MCH3Cl3, MCl4, M2Cl6, and M3Cl8, where M is selected from silicon, tin, lead, titanium, germanium, etc., preferably tetrachlorosilane and tin tetrachloride; the other is divinylbenzene (DVB).

[0051] Furthermore, the hydrogenation catalyst in step S4 is selected from nickel-based catalysts, preferably triisobutylaluminum / nickel naphthenate catalysts.

[0052] Beneficial effects:

[0053] This invention starts with polymer design and uses 1,1-diphenylethylene derivatives functionalized with silicon / nitrogen groups as comonomers. First, based on the active anionic polymerization mechanism, linear / star-coupled styrene-butadiene / isoprene block copolymers SIBS with silicon / nitrogen groups are prepared. On this basis, linear / star-coupled styrene-(ethylene / propylene / butene) block copolymers S(EB / EP)S with silicon / nitrogen groups are obtained through selective hydrogenation. Compared with the prior art, (1) the present invention provides a novel type of silicon / nitrogen functionalized S(EB / EP)S thermoplastic elastomer and its preparation method; (2) the present invention uses a composite silicon / nitrogen functionalized 1,1-diphenylethylene derivative, and controls the polymerization rate of styrene by controlling the ratio of 1,1-diphenylethylene derivative to styrene monomer, the ratio of 1,1-diphenylethylene derivative to alkyl lithium initiator, and the ratio of 1,1-diphenylethylene derivative to polarity modifier. At the same time, by controlling the feeding sequence of 1,1-diphenylethylene derivative and styrene monomer, the silicon / nitrogen functionalized 1,1-diphenylethylene derivative can be selectively and precisely distributed in the initiation end, end and chain of styrene block, and the properties and mass fraction of silicon / nitrogen functionalized 1,1-diphenylethylene derivative can be controlled, thereby realizing the use of silicon / nitrogen groups on demand and improving the utilization efficiency of silicon / nitrogen groups; (3) the present invention essentially adopts a two-step feeding method. The preparation of silicon / nitrogen functionalized S(EB / EP)S involves the first step of generating silicon / nitrogen functionalized polystyrene blocks, the second step of synthesizing polystyrene-butadiene / isoprene diblock polymers, and then introducing a coupling agent to synthesize linear / star-coupled silicon / nitrogen functionalized styrene-butadiene / isoprene triblock copolymers with higher molecular weight. This polymer has a larger molecular weight, better melt flow properties, and better solubility. This invention has a simpler and more effective technical effect; (4) After SIBS is prepared by coupling method, the active center is consumed and no terminator is needed. The remaining active center can react with the hydrogenation catalyst, which helps to improve the hydrogenation efficiency; (5) By using polarity regulators to regulate the microstructure content of 1,2-butadiene and 3,4-isoprene in SIBS, the microstructure content of 1-butene and 1-isoprene in SEEPS can be adjusted, thereby regulating the mechanical properties of SEEPS thermoplastic elastomers.

[0054] In addition, during processing, amine groups form hydrogen bonds with hydroxyl groups and ionic bonds with carboxyl groups, while silanol groups easily form covalent or hydrogen bonds with hydroxyl groups, thus improving the compatibility and dispersibility of the material.

[0118] When the styrene block content is less than 20%, the tensile strength and elongation at break of SEEPS are low, and the performance is poor. When the styrene block content is greater than 50%, the tensile strength of SEEPS does not improve significantly, and the elongation at break gradually decreases. Therefore, the preferred styrene block content in this patent is 20-50%.

[0119] Example 12 (Adjusting the proportion of stilbene derivative in the styrene block, other parameters are the same as in Example 6)

[0120]

[0121] When the DPE content is less than 0.1%, the tensile strength of SEEPS is below 11.0 MPa, indicating low strength. When the DPE content is greater than 0.5% and less than 20%, the tensile strength and tensile modulus of SEEPS are significantly improved. When the DPE content is greater than 50%, the tensile strength and tensile modulus do not change much, and excessive DPE will increase the production cost of SEEPS. Therefore, the preferred DPE content in this patent is 0.5-20%.
