Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of polymer material compositions, and particularly relates to a protein flame retardant functional masterbatch and a manufacturing method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Flame retardants are used to treat polymer materials, improving their combustion performance and preventing the spread of fire, making synthetic materials self-extinguishing or flame-retardant. With the widespread application of synthetic materials in many related industries, such as construction, electrical appliances, automobiles, and aerospace, flame retardants are playing an increasingly important role in these industries. The continuous development and advancement of modern science and technology, coupled with a strong emphasis on safety, has led to increasingly stringent requirements for the safety and fire resistance of flame retardants.

[0003] Currently, the variety and production of flame retardants, primarily based on halogens, phosphorus and nitrogen, and inorganic compounds such as magnesium and aluminum, are increasing. Technologies for converting powdered flame retardants into masterbatches are also being developed and applied. Masterbatch processing not only improves flame retardancy but also reduces dust pollution, improves dispersibility, and enhances mechanical properties and flame retardant efficiency. However, flame retardants or flame retardant masterbatches based on inorganic compounds such as halogens, phosphorus and nitrogen, and magnesium and aluminum are often non-recyclable and face drawbacks such as rising raw material costs, high smoke emissions, and environmental restrictions.

[0004] In light of this, this technology leverages the physical property of protein materials, which exhibit high carbonization when exposed to flames, and uses recyclable biomass resources to synergistically increase protein carbonization efficiency, improve carbon layer stability, and simultaneously enhance compatibility and dispersibility with other materials. This results in a flame-retardant protein masterbatch. This masterbatch is suitable for polymer materials, particularly plastic product injection molding, extrusion, and film production. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to develop a biomass-extracted protein concentrate material to achieve flame retardancy in polymer materials. A protein flame retardant masterbatch is produced through a surface coupling end-capping pretreatment process, a synergistic formulation homogenization process, a mixing and dispersion process, and a melt extrusion process.

[0008] A protein flame retardant functional masterbatch comprises the following components in parts by mass: 30-75 parts of protein, 2-8 parts of cellulose, 5-20 parts of a synergist, 0.8-2 parts of a coupling agent, 1.5-5 parts of a branching agent, 1-5 parts of a dispersant, 0.5-2 parts of a lubricant, 0.3-1 parts of an antioxidant, and 10-30 parts of a carrier material.

[0016] The lubricant is stearate;

[0017] The antioxidant is hindered phenol.

[0018] Furthermore, the lubricant is zinc stearate.

[0019] Furthermore, the carrier material is one or a combination of two or more of polylactic acid PLA, a copolymer of butylene adipate and butylene terephthalate PBAT.

[0020] Furthermore, the total content of the protein component, the cellulose component and the synergist component is not less than 50% based on 100% by weight of the masterbatch.

[0021] A method for preparing a protein flame retardant functional masterbatch comprises the following steps: sequentially performing a surface pretreatment coupling end-capping process, a homogenization process, a banburying dispersion process, and a continuous melt granulation process to obtain a protein functional flame retardant masterbatch.

[0022] Furthermore, (1) surface pretreatment coupling and capping process: weigh the protein component, cellulose component, synergist component, and branching agent component and put them into an autoclave with a stirrer. The autoclave has pressure, heating, and stirring functions. After mixing for 30-60 minutes, the coupling agent component is added and the mixture is dispersed for 15-20 minutes to complete the surface pretreatment coupling and capping process.

[0023] (2) Homogenization process: the remaining components of the dispersant, lubricant, antioxidant and carrier material are put into a high-speed mixer and mixed evenly with the materials in step (1);

By utilizing the inherent properties of the biomass carbon-based polycyclic structure, when a protein-containing plastic material is exposed to flame attack, the protein thermally decomposes to form a carbonized protective layer, isolating oxygen transmission and thus imparting flame retardancy to the material. Furthermore, through synergistic and modified treatment processes, the efficiency and uniformity of protein carbonization are improved, and the density and stability of the carbon layer are enhanced. Furthermore, the protein flame-retardant material exhibits low smoke emission, a wide range of material sources, and is environmentally friendly and renewable.

The preparation of the raw protein flame retardant functional masterbatch of the present invention utilizes autoclave modification processing equipment and performs pre-dispersion coupling and end-capping treatment on the surface structures of protein, cellulose and silicate effector under certain pressure, temperature and mixing processes, thereby reducing the hydrophilicity of the dry powder, improving the surface activity and polarity of the material, and solving technical problems such as the dispersion difficulty and secondary agglomeration of concentrated protein and wood fiber extracted from biomass, thereby effectively improving the physical properties of the material.

[0031] 4. The preparation of the protein flame retardant functional masterbatch of the present invention is achieved by adding a dendritic polymer containing one or more functional groups of -NH2, -OH, -COOCH3, and -COONa to form a three-dimensional structure connection in the molecular chain of the biomass material, thereby increasing the polar compatibility, dispersibility, fluidity and filling rate.

[0032] 5. The preparation of the flame retardant functional masterbatch of biomass extracted concentrated protein of the present invention solves the problems of low carbonization efficiency, incomplete carbonization layer structure, low precipitation efficiency, etc. by combining biomass extracted concentrated protein, lignocellulose and synergist.

[0033] 6. The preparation of the protein flame retardant functional masterbatch of the present invention adopts carrier materials such as polylactic acid material (PLA) and copolymer of butylene adipate and butylene terephthalate (PBAT) as carriers, which can be melt-plasticized to prepare masterbatch and have the effect of synergistically increasing carbonization efficiency with protein flame retardants.

[0034] 7. The preparation of the protein flame retardant functional masterbatch of the present invention effectively solves the feeding difficulty and low yield problems caused by excessively high dry powder content ratio through the melt extrusion process after mixing, and can produce high-concentration flame retardant functional masterbatch with the characteristics of advanced, convenient and controllable process.

[0035] 8. Compared to previously disclosed patented technologies for preparing high-concentration functional masterbatches, the functional masterbatches prepared using this technology have a cumulative total concentration of protein, cellulose, and synergist components of no less than 75%. This technology offers advantages such as high concentration, low usage, and economical efficiency. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
