Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of foamed thermal insulation boards, and in particular to a production method of high-strength polystyrene foamed thermal insulation boards. Background Art

[0002] Modified polystyrene boards are a large category, including the so-called homogeneous boards, silica boards, real gold boards, etc. They all share the same essence. Using a non-combustible material in a compartmentalized manner to wrap the EPS particles, the thermosetting composite polystyrene foam thermal insulation board uses polystyrene foam particles or boards as the thermal insulation matrix and is made into a plate-shaped product by compounding with a treatment agent. Its compounding processes mainly include particle coating, mixed molding, or substrate penetration, etc. It has the characteristics of maintaining a certain shape under fire conditions and not producing molten dripping substances. On December 15, 2020, CN201910516132.2, a production process of a foamed thermal insulation board, disclosed that a raw material composition including 50-80 parts of silica, 13-19 parts of binder, 5-8 parts of polystyrene particles, and 20-40 parts of water was mixed evenly. Using polystyrene particles or boards as the thermal insulation matrix and made into a plate-shaped product by compounding with a treatment agent, its compounding processes mainly include particle coating, mixed molding, or substrate penetration, etc. It has the characteristics of maintaining a certain shape under fire conditions and not producing molten dripping substances. Polystyrene boards or polystyrene particles are only one of its raw materials, and other materials are also needed. A board with a certain fire resistance ability made through a specific production process is called a thermosetting composite polystyrene board. As is well known, there is a big contradiction in this type of thermal insulation material in the current market: when the thermal insulation performance of the board is improved, the bulk density will decrease, but the combustion performance of the board has to be sacrificed; when the combustion performance grade of the board is improved, the bulk density of the board increases accordingly, and the thermal insulation performance decreases. At the same time, if B-class materials are used for external wall insulation in public construction projects and high-rise civil construction projects, there will be very big potential safety hazards. Therefore, those skilled in the art are eager to develop a production method of high-strength polystyrene foamed thermal insulation boards. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of the above problems, the present invention aims to provide a production method of high-strength polystyrene foamed thermal insulation boards.

[0004] The present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0005] A production method of a high-strength polystyrene foam insulation board, in addition to the step of conventionally pre-foaming EPS particles with steam and then ripening for 6 to 8 hours, is characterized by further comprising the following steps: First step, prepare a uniform foaming adhesive solution by mixing phenolic urethane resin, foaming agent, and divinylbenzene in a mass ratio of 9 to 10:2 to 3:1 for standby; Second step, spray the prepared foaming adhesive solution and heat-insulating powder on the surface of the heat-insulating powder in a volume ratio of 1:4 to 5 to obtain foamed heat-insulating powder; Third step, stir and mold: convey the ripened EPS particles to a mixer, and at the same time, based on the weight of the EPS particles as 100% benchmark, meter and add 43 to 47% of the foamed heat-insulating powder and 0.4 to 0.8% of the cross-linking agent, stir and mix the ingredients, then convey them into a plate molding machine, and then stand for 2 to 3 minutes under a pressure of 0.05 to 0.1 MPa and then coagulate and mold in the mold, the mold cavity temperature is 120 to 125 °C, and the molding time is 3 to 4 minutes; Fourth step, cure and mold: After demolding from the mold, the curing time is 6 to 8 hours, the curing conditions are a temperature of 33 to 35 °C and a relative humidity of 40 to 45%, or heat through an oven at 60 °C for 2 to 6 hours; Fifth step, cut and polish: Send the molded plate to the cutting and polishing workshop, cut with an electric heating wire and then polish to obtain.

[0006] Further, the cross-linking agent is a mixture of N-methylimidazole and dicumyl peroxide in a mass ratio of 1:2 to 3.

[0007] Further, the heat-insulating powder in the second step is one of perlite powder, shale ceramsite sand powder, and pumice powder.

[0008] Pumice powder has been used as an abrasive for grinding and cleaning denture bases and alloys. Shale ceramsite sand is a heat-insulating and lightweight porous basic material prepared by using shale or slate with self-expansion performance as the sole raw material.

[0009] Further, the foaming agent is one of sodium bicarbonate and azodicarbonamide.

[0010] Further, the phenolic urethane resin is a two-component phenolic urethane resin for casting composed of linear phenolic resin and polyisocyanate.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0012] In the present invention, a reaction between linear phenolic resin and polyisocyanate in a phenolic urethane resin foaming adhesive solution is adopted. The two double bonds of the isocyanate group in the polyisocyanate molecule, R—N=C=O, have extremely active chemical properties and are easily attacked by the hydroxyl groups on the phenolic resin molecules, causing hydrogen atoms to transfer to nitrogen atoms and then connecting to harden. This cross-linking reaction does not produce small-molecule by-products, is clean and environmentally friendly, and adds divinylbenzene and a foaming agent. Using EPS particles as raw materials, uniformly mixing foaming heat-insulating powder, a non-combustible thermal insulation board is made, thereby realizing a high-quality thermal insulation material with advantages such as A2-level fire protection, strong bonding force, safety and reliability, convenient construction, high cost performance, and great market potential.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0014] The foaming adhesive solution containing phenolic urethane resin has low water absorption, moisture-proof and waterproof properties. It has strong bonding performance. The phenolic urethane self-hardening resin includes phenolic resin and polyisocyanate, with a fast and uniform curing speed, higher bonding strength and high-temperature strength. It forms a network structure on the surface of the inorganic powder. The thermal insulation board has high tensile and compressive strengths. Divinylbenzene forms a cross-linked support connection structure inside under the action of the cross-linking agent, thereby increasing the tensile and compressive strengths of the thermal insulation board. During the construction process, the material will not deform due to external forces, resulting in bending, warping and other phenomena, ensuring the flatness, cleanliness and stability of the wall surface after construction. The production operation is simple and the loss is low. Specific embodiments
