Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of automotive interior materials, and in particular to a method for preparing a low-odor, low-VOC composite skin. Background Technology

[0002] Composite materials used in automotive interiors are typically produced using a flame lamination process. In this process, a flame rapidly burns the surface of a sponge, bonding the sponge or other thermoplastic materials to leather, fabric, or other materials. The flame lamination process inevitably requires the use of fuel gas, such as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). However, fuel gas typically has a certain purity at the factory and contains some small-molecule impurities. When ignited or heated, these impurities can generate volatile harmful substances. Especially when the quality of the purchased gas fluctuates, the varying levels of impurities can have an uncontrollable impact on the odor, VOCs, and other quality aspects of the flame-laminated product.

[0003] The main components of commonly used liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) are propane, propylene, butane, and butene. It also leaves behind some volatile small molecules, such as aromatic hydrocarbons like benzene, toluene, xylene, ethylbenzene, trimethylbenzene, naphthalene, anthracene, and oxalool; sulfides like hydrogen sulfide, sulfur dioxide, thiols, thioethers, thiophene, methyl mercaptan, and methyl sulfide; as well as ammonia and cyanide. These substances volatilize during the flame lamination process, contaminating the composite product. Furthermore, materials like sponges and leather themselves have strong, irritating odors, resulting in a final composite product with a strong odor and high VOC content, failing to meet customer requirements and potentially causing harm to the human body with prolonged exposure. Therefore, developing low-odor, low-VOC composite skins is of significant practical importance. Currently, the main approach to developing low-odor, low-VOC composite skins is to reduce the odor of raw materials, such as using low-odor sponges and leather.

[0004] Chinese patent CN109353085A discloses a low-odor, low-VOC automotive fabric and its manufacturing method. The manufacturing materials include a fabric, a sponge, a base fabric, and auxiliary materials. The auxiliary materials are composed of 1-2 parts by weight of light stabilizer, 2-3 parts by weight of odor absorber, 0.5-1 parts by weight of heat stabilizer, 2-3 parts by weight of processing aid, 1.5-2 parts by weight of reactive amine catalyst, and 100 parts by weight of water. The addition of auxiliary materials prevents the automotive fabric from emitting harmful VOC odors on a large scale when exposed to strong light, and the emitted VOCs are also absorbed and catalyzed by the reactive amine catalyst, thus reducing the odor and VOCs of the composite fabric. However, this method requires preparing a solution to wet the composite fabric and then drying it, which is cumbersome and introduces a large number of chemical reagents, which is not environmentally friendly.

[0005] PV3900-2000 is a commonly used odor testing standard. Odor evaluation adopts a 6-level evaluation standard: Level 1 indicates no odor, Level 2 indicates odor but not bothersome, Level 3 indicates noticeable odor but still not bothersome, Level 4 indicates bothersome odor, Level 5 indicates strong bothersome odor, and Level 6 indicates intolerable. The odor evaluation is conducted by 3 to 5 people. The evaluation results can be described in half-levels, and the average value is taken as the final odor level result. The lower the level, the weaker the odor. Summary of the Invention

[0086]

[0087] Table 2 shows that the odor rating of the composite skins prepared in Examples 1-4 is 3.0-3.5, which is lower than that of Comparative Examples 1-2, indicating a low odor. In the VOC test results for 1 cubic meter, TVOC < 200 μg / m³. 3 Benzene is ND, toluene <10μg / m 3 Ethylbenzene < 5 μg / m 3 Xylene <15 μg / m 3 Styrene is ND, formaldehyde <6μg / m³ 3 Acetaldehyde < 30 μg / m 3 Acrylaldehyde is an N-type compound, and the composite product has the advantage of low VOC content.

[0088] In summary, the composite skin produced by this invention, due to the addition of a gas purification device filled with molecular sieve adsorbent in the gas combustion device, can fully adsorb and purify the gas and air, removing residual small volatile substances such as aromatics, sulfides, ammonia, and cyanides from the gas. This ensures that the gas entering the flame composite machine is sufficiently pure. As shown in the impurity detection data of the sampled gas in Examples 1-4, the impurities in the gas and air are fully purified, and the impurity content in the mixed gas exiting the gas purification device is significantly reduced. This reduces the quality problems caused by impurities in the raw material gas to the composite product, effectively reduces the odor level and VOC content of the composite product, and achieves good technical results. It can be used in the industrial production of automotive interior composite skins.

The gas from the gas buffer tank enters the mixer after being controlled by gas pressure. Air from the air buffer tank enters the mixer after being controlled by air pressure. By controlling the flow rates of gas and air, the volume ratio of gas and air in the mixer is adjusted to obtain a uniform gas mixture. The mixed gas enters a gas purification device filled with molecular sieve adsorbents, where aromatics, sulfides, ammonia, cyanides, formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, and acrolein are adsorbed and removed from the mixed gas, resulting in a purified mixed gas. The purified mixed gas enters the flame laminating machine, where the sponge is ignited at the burner to perform flame lamination, resulting in a low-odor, low-VOC composite skin. The molecular sieve adsorbent is selected from lanthanum-loaded ZSM-5 / mordenite symbiotic molecular sieve, copper-loaded MCM-22 molecular sieve, copper and zinc-loaded MCM-49 molecular sieve, or a mixture of copper-loaded MCM-22 molecular sieve and copper and zinc-loaded MCM-49 molecular sieve. The lanthanum-loaded ZSM-5 / mordenite symbiotic molecular sieve has a lanthanum content of 0.5% by mass and a SiO2 / Al2O3 molar ratio of 15~30. The copper-loaded MCM-22 molecular sieve has a copper mass percentage of 0.6% and a SiO2 / Al2O3 molar ratio of 80~110. The copper- and zinc-loaded MCM-49 molecular sieve has a copper mass percentage of 0.3%, a zinc mass percentage of 0.4%, and a SiO2 / Al2O3 molar ratio of 15-25. In the mixture of copper-loaded MCM-22 molecular sieve and copper- and zinc-loaded MCM-49 molecular sieve, the mass ratio of copper-loaded MCM-22 molecular sieve to copper- and zinc-loaded MCM-49 molecular sieve is 1:3.5; wherein the copper-loaded MCM-22 molecular sieve has a copper mass percentage of 0.4% and a SiO2 / Al2O3 molar ratio of 105; and the copper- and zinc-loaded MCM-49 molecular sieve has a copper mass percentage of 0.3%, a zinc mass percentage of 0.4%, and a SiO2 / Al2O3 molar ratio of 22. The pressure of both the gas and air is controlled at 4.0~8.0 kPa, and the volume ratio of gas to air in the mixer is 60~80:
