Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of vehicle protective materials technology, and more specifically, to a coating for explosion-proof vehicles. Background Technology
[0002] Explosion-proof vehicles play a crucial protective role in modern counter-terrorism operations, VIP escort, and hazardous materials transportation. According to the *Global Defence Report 2023*, global demand for explosion-proof vehicles has increased by 17.2% in the past five years. The combined threat of blast waves and high-speed fragments constitutes the main kill mechanism. Traditional solutions rely on increasing the thickness of armor steel plates (typically ≥15mm), leading to an increase in vehicle weight of over 40%, severely sacrificing mobility and fuel efficiency. Coating protection technology has become a research hotspot due to its lightweight potential, but existing coatings face significant technical bottlenecks in terms of blast wave resistance, flame retardancy, and environmental adaptability. Current technologies still have certain shortcomings:
[0003] 1. Adhesion and impact resistance are mutually exclusive.
[0004] Although conventional epoxy-based anti-corrosion coatings have an adhesion strength of ≥5MPa, they are prone to large-area peeling under explosive impact. Experiments show that when subjected to a 0.3ms pulse width shock wave, the coating peels off more than 60% of its area. This is because the lack of lamellar filler leads to stress transmission failure, preventing the formation of an effective energy dissipation path.
[0005] 2. Single-layer structures are ill-equipped to cope with complex threats.
[0006] While mainstream polyurea elastomer coatings possess high elongation (≥300%), their fragmentation protection limit is only 280 m / s (1.8g steel fragment), and they lack strain rate strengthening effects. In a 12kg TNT equivalent explosion test, the deformation of the backplate in a single-layer structure exceeded the safety threshold by 45 mm, and due to the lack of a gradient impedance matching layer, the shock wave energy absorption rate was less than 40%.
[0007] 3. Limited functionality leads to poor battlefield adaptability.
[0008] Existing explosion-proof coatings generally neglect the requirements for chemical protection and self-cleaning. Tests show that when phosphorus-containing agent droplets come into contact with commercially available explosion-proof coatings, the penetration depth reaches 80μm within 30 minutes; and on rough surfaces (Ra=25μm), the amount of dirt adhering to the surface in a dusty environment is ≥120g / m². 2 / week, the extra weight reduces vehicle mobility, and frequent decontamination operations increase the risk of exposure.
[0009] Therefore, a coating for explosion-proof vehicles is proposed to address the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0013] Preferably, the polyurea elastomer is generated by reacting an isocyanate prepolymer with an amino-terminated polyether. The isocyanate prepolymer is prepared by diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI) and polytetrahydrofuran ether diol in a ratio of NCO:OH = 2.2:1. The amino-terminated polyether is polypropylene triamine with a molecular weight of 2000. The reaction equivalence ratio of the two is NCO:NH2 = 1:0.95-1.05. The final elastomer has a tensile strength ≥25MPa and an elongation at break ≥450%.
[0014] Preferably, each coating contains a specific flame-retardant system, wherein the adhesion underlayer contains 4.5-7.0% triphenyl phosphate and 2.0-3.5% antimony trioxide by mass; the energy-absorbing intermediate layer contains aluminum hydroxide powder with a particle size D50 of 5-8 μm, accounting for 18-22% by mass; and the impact-resistant outer layer contains expandable graphite with an initial expansion temperature of 180-220°C and accounting for 7-10% by mass of the outer layer. Under the synergistic effect of the flame-retardant system, the coating system has passed UL94 V-0 certification.
[0015] Preferably, the surface treatment of the aramid chopped fibers uses γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, which increases the interfacial shear strength between the fiber and the STF matrix by 40-60% and reduces fiber pull-out phenomenon by more than 80% under 10J impact energy.
[0016] Preferably, the pyramidal protrusions of the impact-resistant outer layer are arranged in a hexagonal close-packed array, with the top of the protrusion being a spherical surface with a radius of curvature of 0.1-0.3 mm. Adjacent protrusions are connected by grooves with a depth of 0.1-0.2 mm. This structure increases the dispersion of the explosion shock wave reflection angle by 35-50%.
[0017] Preferably, it also includes a hydrophobic functional layer disposed on the surface of the impact-resistant outer layer. This layer is formed by hydrolysis and condensation of perfluorooctyltriethoxysilane and methyltrimethoxysilane in a 3:1 molar ratio, with a thickness of 5-15 μm, a static water contact angle ≥152°, a roll-off angle ≤5°, and a contact angle attenuation rate ≤3% after 500 washes.
[0018] Preferably, the adhesion between the adhesive underlayer and the vehicle body substrate is ≥8MPa, the energy absorption rate of the energy-absorbing intermediate layer under a 0.3ms pulse width explosive shock wave is ≥65%, and the impact-resistant outer layer can withstand the penetration of 1.8g cubic fragments at a speed of 420m / s.

[0024] The technical effects and advantages of this invention are as follows:

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0030] Example 1:
[0031] As attached Figure 1-3As shown, (1) a coating for explosion-proof vehicles, comprising an adhesive underlayer, an energy-absorbing intermediate layer, and an impact-resistant outer layer arranged sequentially from the surface of the vehicle body substrate outwards; the adhesive underlayer is composed of an epoxy resin matrix, flake zinc powder, and flake mica powder, wherein the flake zinc powder accounts for 18-28% of the underlayer mass and has a diameter-to-thickness ratio ≥50; the flake mica powder accounts for 6-9% of the underlayer mass and has a flake diameter of 20-40μm, and the two form a laminated shielding structure in the epoxy resin; the energy-absorbing intermediate layer is composed of a shear thickening fluid (STF) and surface-silanized aramid short-cut fibers, the aramid fibers having a length of 1.0-2.5mm and accounting for 10-13% of the volume fraction of the intermediate layer, the layer having a thickness of 2.0-2.8mm and a strain rate ≥500s under dynamic impact testing. -1 When the viscosity increases to more than 50 times the baseline value, the impact-resistant outer layer comprises polyurea elastomer and gradient-distributed ceramic microspheres. The ceramic microspheres are made of silicon carbide with a Mohs hardness ≥9. Microspheres with a particle size of 20-50 μm are concentrated in the inner 50% region of the outer layer, while microspheres with a particle size of 60-100 μm are concentrated in the outer 50% region. The total volume of the microspheres accounts for 30-38%. This layer is 3.0-4.5 mm thick and has pyramidal protrusions on its surface with a depth of 0.3-0.8 mm and a cone angle of 60°-90°, with a protrusion density of 4-6 per cm³. 2 The adhesive underlayer uses epoxy resin E-44 as the matrix, mixed with flake zinc powder (22% by mass) with an aspect ratio ≥50:1 and flake mica powder (7% by mass) with a flake diameter of 30μm, and dispersed at high speed to a fineness ≤25μm to form a slurry; the energy-absorbing intermediate layer consists of 1.5mm long aramid fibers (12% by volume) pre-impregnated in nano-silica / PEG400 type STF (65% by mass of silica), and coated into a 2.5mm thick coating. Testing showed that it could withstand 800 seconds of light exposure. -1 The viscosity increased 58-fold under strain rate; the impact-resistant outer layer consisted of MDI-based polyurea encapsulating gradient-distributed silicon carbide microspheres (40% of the inner area consisted of 30μm microspheres, and 60% of the outer area consisted of 80μm microspheres, accounting for 35% of the total volume), which were formed by pressing with a pyramidal textured mold to achieve a depth of 0.5mm, a cone angle of 75°, and a density of 5 microspheres / cm³. 2 The surface structure has a total thickness of 4.0 mm.
[0032] (2) The shear-thickening fluid of the energy-absorbing intermediate layer is formed by dispersing nano-silica with aminosilane modified on the surface in polyethylene glycol 400, wherein the mass fraction of nano-silica is 62-68%, the absolute value of the zeta potential after modification is ≥35mV, and the sedimentation rate is ≤5% after standing at 25℃ for 72 hours. The nano-silica is modified by γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (1.2% of the mass of silica) in ethanol solution for 2 hours, and the zeta potential after modification reaches -38mV. The modified particles are added to PEG400 at 60℃ and dispersed at 5500rpm for 40 minutes to obtain STF with a sedimentation rate of only 3.8% after standing at 25℃ for 72 hours. When used to impregnate aramid fibers, it exhibits a uniform coating state.
[0033] (3) The polyurea elastomer is generated by reacting an isocyanate prepolymer with a terminal amino polyether. The isocyanate prepolymer is prepared by reacting diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI) and polytetrahydrofuran ether diol in a ratio of NCO:OH = 2.2:1. The terminal amino polyether is polypropylene triamine with a molecular weight of 2000. The reaction equivalence ratio of the two is NCO:NH2 = 1:0.95-1.05. The final elastomer has a tensile strength ≥25MPa and an elongation at break ≥450%. The isocyanate prepolymer is synthesized by reacting MDI and polytetrahydrofuran ether diol (molecular weight 2000) at 80℃ for 3 hours with an NCO:OH ratio of 2.2:1 (NCO content 8.5%). The terminal amino polyether is Jeffamine. T-5000 (molecular weight 5000) is mixed with prepolymer in a two-component spraying equipment at an equivalent ratio of NCO:NH2 = 1:1.02. After the reaction, the elastomer has a tensile strength of 28MPa (GB / T 528) and an elongation at break of 480% (GB / T 529).

Specifically, the aramid fibers are ultrasonically treated in an acetone solution containing 0.8% γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane for 30 minutes, dried, and then composited with STF. The interfacial shear strength was increased from 18MPa to 26MPa (an increase of 44%) by microdroplet debonding test; the drop hammer impact test (10J energy) showed that the fiber pull-out rate decreased from 35% to 6%.
[0036] (6) The impact-resistant outer layer features pyramidal protrusions arranged in a hexagonal close-packed array. The tops of the protrusions are spherical surfaces with a radius of curvature of 0.1-0.3 mm. Adjacent protrusions are connected by grooves with a depth of 0.1-0.2 mm. This structure increases the dispersion of the explosion shock wave reflection angle by 35-50%. Specifically, an uncured polyurea coating is pressed using a hexagonal close-packed array mold, the tops of the protrusions are machined into spherical surfaces with a radius of curvature of 0.2 mm, and V-shaped grooves with a depth of 0.15 mm are etched between adjacent protrusions. Explosion tests (1 kg TNT / 3 m distance) show that compared to a flat surface, this structure reduces the peak shock wave pressure by 42% and the reflection angle dispersion by 48% (high-speed photography analysis).
[0037] (7) It also includes a hydrophobic functional layer disposed on the surface of the impact-resistant outer layer. This layer is formed by the hydrolysis and condensation of perfluorooctyltriethoxysilane and methyltrimethoxysilane in a 3:1 molar ratio, with a thickness of 5-15 μm, a static water contact angle ≥152°, a roll-off angle ≤5°, and a contact angle attenuation rate ≤3% after 500 washes. Specifically, perfluorooctyltriethoxysilane and methyltrimethoxysilane are dissolved in an ethanol / water mixture (pH=4) in a 3:1 molar ratio, hydrolyzed for 30 minutes, and then sprayed onto the impact-resistant outer layer. It is then cured at 120°C to form a 10 μm thick hydrophobic layer. The contact angle test (GB / T 30447) shows a static angle of 155°±2° and a roll-off angle of 4°; after 500 tests using a reciprocating scrubbing machine (ASTM D2486), the contact angle remains at 152°.

The coating is baked at 80℃ for 1 hour to form a 100μm coating. Energy-absorbing intermediate layer construction: Modified STF and treated aramid fibers are degassed in a vacuum reactor for 20 minutes, then scraped and cured at 25℃ / 35%RH for 24 hours. Impact-resistant outer layer construction: The polyurea prepolymer containing gradient ceramic microspheres is coated by a roller with a hexagonal array texture (linear pressure 80N / cm) and cured at 40℃ for 3 hours.
