Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of coal technology, specifically a preparation process for an environmentally friendly rubber additive NS. Background Technology

[0002] Rubber is a material with excellent viscoelasticity and is widely used in various aspects of industry and daily life. However, uncured rubber has a narrow operating temperature range and unstable properties. Therefore, in actual processing, it is necessary to add a vulcanization accelerator that promotes crosslinking of rubber, enabling the rubber to vulcanize rapidly and crosslink from a linear chain molecular structure into a three-dimensional network macromolecule, thus transforming the rubber into vulcanized rubber with practical value.

[0003] Rubber vulcanization accelerators are classified into eight categories based on their chemical structure. However, the vulcanization rate of most accelerators is difficult to control during use, and secondary amine accelerators are prone to producing carcinogens. Rubber vulcanization accelerators are generally added to the rubber matrix through compounding, but this process easily generates dust, causing environmental pollution. Furthermore, due to the different polarities of the rubber matrix, migration is likely to occur during use, affecting the appearance and service life of the finished product. Therefore, developing efficient, environmentally friendly, and inexpensive new rubber vulcanization accelerators has become a trend in the current vulcanization accelerator industry.

[0004] Chinese patent CN121160011A discloses a rubber additive and its environmentally friendly new process. In the post-processing of this invention, the addition and modification of chitosan can form an interpenetrating network structure with the components in the additive, resulting in low migration rate of the rubber additive in the rubber matrix, low volatility, small physical loss, and avoidance of environmental pollution. In addition, the amino groups in its structure can play an activating role in the rubber vulcanization process, accelerating the vulcanization of the compound.

[0005] However, the stability of chitosan in this solution is poor. In long-term use, such as in tires under high-temperature environments, chitosan is prone to oxidative degradation, which leads to the destruction of the interpenetrating network structure and a rapid decline in the mechanical properties of the rubber. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide an environmentally friendly process for preparing the rubber additive NS. By adding self-synthesized calcium sulfide / hollow burr-shaped manganese dioxide nanospheres and interpenetrating polymers, the hollow structure of the calcium sulfide / hollow burr-shaped manganese dioxide nanospheres provides a large specific surface area and porosity, which can act as stress dispersion points in the rubber system, alleviate stress concentration in the rubber during stretching and compression, and improve the tear resistance and fatigue resistance of rubber products. The burr-like morphology of the surface can enhance the interfacial bonding force between the nanoparticles and the rubber matrix, reduce filler agglomeration, ensure uniform dispersion of the additive in the rubber, and thus stabilize the mechanical properties of the rubber.

[0007] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions: A preparation process for an environmentally friendly rubber additive NS includes the following steps: Step 1: Hollow manganese dioxide nanospheres are formed by redox reaction using sodium thiosulfate pentahydrate as a precursor, polyvinylpyrrolidone as a structure directing agent and stabilizer, and potassium permanganate as a strong oxidant.

[0008] Step 2: Using hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide as a surfactant and urea as an alkaline regulator, a micelle template is constructed in an aqueous solution. Tetraethyl orthosilicate is used as a silicon source and hydrolyzed to generate silica sol, which is then directionally deposited on the surface of hollow manganese dioxide nanospheres and grows burr-like protrusions to obtain hollow burr-like manganese dioxide nanospheres.

[0009] Step 3: Using calcium acetate as the calcium source and diphenylthiourea as the sulfur source, and oleic acid, oleylamine, and trioctylamine as dispersants and solvents, a homogeneous reaction system is constructed. Diphenylthiourea undergoes thermal decomposition to generate sulfur ions, which react with calcium ions in situ on the surface of hollow, spiky manganese dioxide to obtain calcium sulfide / hollow, spiky manganese dioxide nanospheres.

[0010] Step 4: Using sodium alginate and epoxy resin as the crosslinking backbone, and castor oil polyether polyol and isocyanate as the polyurethane prepolymer raw materials, an interpenetrating polymer is obtained after crosslinking polymerization.

[0011] Step 5: Mix the styrene-acrylic emulsion, calcium sulfide / hollow spiky manganese dioxide nanospheres and modified accelerator NS evenly at 35-40℃, stir thoroughly, then add the interpenetrating polymer, continue stirring for 20-30 minutes, cool naturally to room temperature, let stand to separate into layers, separate the solid and liquid, and dry at 40-45℃ to obtain an environmentally friendly rubber additive NS.

Then, concentrated hydrochloric acid with a concentration of 6 mol / L was added, and the reaction was continued with stirring for 2-4 h. The mixture was centrifuged at 3000-3200 r / min for 3-5 min. The precipitate was washed once with a polyvinylpyrrolidone solution with a concentration of 0.8 mmol / L by centrifugation.

After filtration, the filter cake was washed 2-4 times with deionized water and dried under vacuum at 60-70 °C for 1-2 h. The cake was then transferred to a muffle furnace and calcined at 550-600 °C for 6-7 h to obtain hollow, spiky manganese dioxide nanospheres.

Then, diphenylthiourea and anhydrous ethanol were added, and stirring was continued for 10-12 min to remove ethanol. The mixture was then transferred to a muffle furnace and calcined at 340-360℃ for 1-2 h under nitrogen protection. The product was dispersed in ethanol to precipitate it and centrifuged at 8000-9000 r / min for 3-5 min. The product was washed 2-4 times with ethanol and deionized water, respectively, and then vacuum dried at 60-80℃ for 1-2 h to obtain calcium sulfide / hollow spiky manganese dioxide nanospheres.

[0020] Furthermore, the ratio of deionized water, calcium acetate, oleic acid, hollow spiky manganese dioxide nanospheres, oleylamine, trioctylamine, diphenylthiourea, anhydrous ethanol, and ethanol is 40-50 mL: 1.58-1.62 g: 20-22 mL: 30-32 g: 120-130 mL: 60-70 mL: 6.85-6.95 g: 100-120 mL: 200-300 mL.

Then, castor oil polyether polyol, isocyanate, and acetone were added and ultrasonically dispersed for 40-60 minutes. Next, a 0.3-0.4% (w / w) dibutyltin dilaurate solution was added, and the mixture was heated to 50-60°C and stirred for 2-4 hours. The mixture was then filtered, and the filter cake was washed 2-4 times with deionized water and dried at 40-45°C to obtain an interpenetrating polymer.

[0022] Furthermore, the ratio of sodium alginate, epoxy resin, deionized water, sesame oil polyether polyol, isocyanate, acetone and dibutyltin dilaurate solution is 12-15g: 5-7g: 50-60mL: 70-80mL: 90-100mL: 500-600mL: 4-5mL.

[0023] The beneficial effects of this invention are: 1. The environmentally friendly rubber additive NS of the present invention, by adding self-synthesized calcium sulfide / hollow burr-shaped manganese dioxide nanospheres and interpenetrating polymer, provides a large specific surface area and porosity for the hollow structure of the calcium sulfide / hollow burr-shaped manganese dioxide nanospheres. It can serve as a stress dispersion point in the rubber system, alleviate stress concentration in the rubber during stretching and compression, improve the tear resistance and fatigue resistance of rubber products, and enhance the interfacial bonding force between the nanoparticles and the rubber matrix by the burr-like morphology of the surface, reduce filler agglomeration, ensure uniform dispersion of the additive in the rubber, and thus stabilize the mechanical properties of the rubber.

[0024] 2. The calcium sulfide / hollow spiky manganese dioxide nanospheres of the present invention contain a composite structure of calcium sulfide and manganese dioxide, which plays a synergistic promoting role in the rubber vulcanization process. Manganese dioxide, as a mild oxidant, can accelerate the vulcanization crosslinking reaction, while calcium sulfide can adjust the pH of the vulcanization system, optimize the crosslinking network structure, make the crosslinking density of the rubber more uniform, and improve the elasticity and wear resistance of the product.

[0025] 3. The interpenetrating polymer of the present invention is obtained by crosslinking and polymerization of sodium alginate and epoxy resin as the crosslinking backbone and castor oil polyether polyol and isocyanate as polyurethane prepolymer raw materials. This gives it both hydrophilic and hydrophobic groups, which can be used as an interface compatibilizer. On the one hand, it combines with the polar nanofiller calcium sulfide / hollow spiky manganese dioxide nanospheres through hydrogen bonds and electrostatic interactions. On the other hand, it is compatible with the non-polar rubber matrix through van der Waals forces, which greatly improves the interfacial compatibility between the filler and the rubber and reduces interfacial defects.

[0026] 4. The calcium sulfide / hollow spiky manganese dioxide nanospheres of the present invention interact with the interpenetrating polymer. The hollow spiky structure can be embedded into the interpenetrating polymer to act as a bridge, thereby improving the mechanical strength of the rubber. The sodium alginate contained in the interpenetrating polymer can be used as a crosslinking agent by the calcium ions contained in the calcium sulfide / hollow spiky manganese dioxide nanospheres during the rubber vulcanization process, thereby improving the polymerization strength of the interpenetrating polymer.

[0043] Comparative Example 1: Based on Example 3, the hollow burr-like manganese dioxide nanospheres in step S3 were replaced with the hollow manganese dioxide nanospheres in step S1.

[0044] Comparative Example 2: Based on Example 3, the calcium sulfide / hollow burr-shaped manganese dioxide nanospheres in step S5 were replaced with the hollow burr-shaped manganese dioxide nanospheres prepared in step S2.

[0045] Comparative Example 3: Based on Example 3, the interpenetrating polymer in step S5 was replaced with castor oil polyether polyol.

[0046] Fluorosilicone rubber was prepared under the same conditions using the environmentally friendly rubber additive NS prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3. The obtained fluorosilicone rubber and commercially available fluorosilicone rubber from Anhui Lixin Rubber Technology Co., Ltd. were tested according to GB / T528-2009, GB / T529-2008, GB / T1681-2009, and GB / T7759.1-2015. The results are shown in Table 1. Table 1 ; As can be seen from Table 1, the disappearance of the burr-like morphology in Comparative Example 1 significantly reduced the interfacial bonding area between the nanofiller and the rubber matrix and interpenetrating polymer, making it impossible to effectively anchor the matrix molecular chains, weakening the stress dispersion effect, and resulting in a significant decrease in tensile strength and tear strength.

[0047] The burr-like structure retained in Comparative Example 2 can still play a certain role in interfacial anchoring. Without the participation of calcium sulfide, the pH of the vulcanization system cannot be precisely controlled, the uniformity of the crosslinking network decreases, and at the same time, the interpenetrating polymer loses the reinforcing effect of calcium ions as crosslinking agents, resulting in insufficient polymerization strength, which leads to a decrease in the resilience of the rubber and an increase in the compression set.

[0048] In Comparative Example 3, the castor oil polyether polyol is only a single lipophilic molecule and lacks the interfacial compatibility characteristics of interpenetrating polymers with both hydrophilic and hydrophobic groups. It cannot simultaneously form a stable bond with the polar calcium sulfide / hollow burr-shaped manganese dioxide nanosphere filler and the non-polar rubber matrix, resulting in severe filler agglomeration, increased interfacial defects in the rubber, and the lack of bridging effect of the interpenetrating network. The calcium sulfide / hollow burr-shaped manganese dioxide nanosphere filler cannot be effectively embedded in the polymer network, and the stress transfer efficiency is greatly reduced. At the same time, there is no cross-linking reaction between sodium alginate and calcium ions, resulting in insufficient mechanical strength of the polymer. Ultimately, the tensile strength, tear strength, and resilience are reduced to the lowest level, while the compression set is increased.

[0049] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention.
