Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of protective materials, in particular to the technical field of anti-toxic and flame-retardant protective materials, and specifically provides a protective composite material with high anti-toxic and high flame-retardant properties and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In places where operations are carried out near open flames, spark-emitting sources, molten metals, and where there is a risk of ignition of flammable substances, it is necessary for working staff to wear protective clothing made of flame-retardant materials. The national standard GB8965.1-2009 "Protective Clothing - Flame Retardant Protection" stipulates the grading standards for protective clothing. Flame-retardant material Class A is applicable to flame-retardant clothing worn in occasions where there are open flames, spark emissions, operations near molten metals, and there is radiant heat and convective heat, and it belongs to the highest grade of flame-retardant materials. According to the flame-retardant performance items and indicators stipulated in the GB8965.1-2009 "Protective Clothing - Flame Retardant Protection" standard, the Class A standard indicators are: damage length ≤ 50 mm, afterglow and continued burning time ≤ 2 s. This kind of flame-retardant composite material usually adds a flame retardant to the outer composite material to meet the corresponding flame-retardant requirements.

[0003] In actual work, the on-site working environment is complex, and toxic and harmful substances are generated in dangerous places at high temperatures, which may threaten the personal safety of working staff and cause irreversible effects. Protective clothing with only flame-retardant effects cannot meet the actual on-site requirements. Currently, the anti-toxic products on the market use a composite single-layer anti-toxic film, and then a layer of materials such as TPU or PVC is compounded outside the anti-toxic film. Due to the brittle nature of the anti-toxic film material, poor cold resistance, and low peel strength between the anti-toxic film and the framework material, the product often has problems such as creases and delamination during use, affecting the product's performance, and further leading to a series of problems such as short service life. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to solve the problems that the existing protective materials currently on the market cannot meet the requirements of flame retardancy and anti-toxicity in a complex working environment, and due to the structural characteristics of the anti-toxic film material, there are problems such as brittleness, easy folding, and poor cold resistance, and quality problems such as creases and delamination often occur during use, resulting in frequent replacement, short service life, and increased use costs, the present invention provides a protective composite material with high anti-toxic and high flame-retardant properties and a preparation method thereof.

[0005] The present invention is implemented as follows:

[0006] The present invention provides a protective composite material with high anti - toxicity and high flame - retardancy performance, which includes a skeleton layer in the middle. On both sides of the skeleton layer, an anti - poison layer and a flame - retardant layer are sequentially compounded. The anti - poison layer uses an anti - poison co - extrusion film, and the anti - poison co - extrusion film is prepared by multi - layer co - extrusion of TPU, PVDC, and PE. The flame - retardant layer uses a flame - retardant film, and the flame - retardant film is made by mixing various flame - retardants. The skeleton layer uses an aramid skeleton material.

[0007] During implementation, a protective composite material with high anti - toxicity and high flame - retardancy performance designed by the present invention is prepared by a multi - layer composite process. It includes a skeleton layer in the middle. On both sides of the skeleton layer, an anti - poison layer and a flame - retardant layer are sequentially compounded. The anti - poison layers on both sides are exactly the same, and the flame - retardant layers on both sides are exactly the same. The front and back sides of the protective composite material are symmetrically compounded.

[0008] The anti - poison layer uses an anti - poison co - extrusion film, and the anti - poison co - extrusion film is prepared by multi - layer co - extrusion of TPU (polyurethane), PVDC (polyvinylidene chloride), and PE (polyethylene) film materials. This can improve the problems that the anti - poison film material is brittle and has poor cold resistance, and can also improve the peel strength between it and the skeleton material, solve quality problems such as creases and delamination that occur during product use, reduce the primary composite process, lower costs, and improve product quality.

[0009] The anti - poison co - extrusion film uses five - layer composite co - extrusion, including a base layer and a functional layer. The base layer is a PE layer, which has good support and retention effects on the functional layer. The functional layer includes a TPU layer and a PVDC layer. The TPU layer and the PVDC layer are sequentially compounded on both sides of the PE layer. When PVDC is used as a barrier material, its oxygen permeability and water vapor permeability are very low, effectively playing a barrier role.

[0010] The flame - retardant layer uses a flame - retardant film, and the flame - retardant film is obtained by mixing various flame - retardants and directly compounded on the skeleton material, meeting the high requirements of the composite material for flame - retardancy. At the same time, compared with the existing technology using a flame - retardant coating, the tear strength of the composite material is improved.

[0011] The skeleton layer uses an aramid skeleton material.

[0012] A manufacturing method of a protective composite material with high anti - toxicity and high flame - retardancy performance includes the following steps:

[0013] a. Preparation of the anti - poison layer;

[0014] Select TPU, PVDC, and PE materials as raw materials, and use a multi - layer co - extrusion compounding process to prepare an anti - poison co - extrusion film. Specifically, the TPU, PVDC, and PE raw materials are respectively added to their respective extruders, melted and plasticized in their respective extruders, then flow into a multi - layer co - extrusion compound die head and are distributed according to the interlayer structure, and then after extrusion compounding and cooling forming, an anti - poison co - extrusion film is obtained.

[0015] b, Preparation of the flame retardant layer;

[0016] Add 100 parts of TPU to a mixing blender, add a flame retardant, and mix preliminarily; then add a total of 100 parts of DMAC solvent in three portions, mix thoroughly, and coat on a centrifugal paper to form a film. The weight of the flame retardant layer is 45 - 70 g / m 2 ; Further, the weight of the flame retardant layer is selected to be 50 - 60 g / m 2 ; Even further, the weight of the flame retardant layer is selected to be 53 g / m 2 ;

[0017] c, Composite process;

[0018] Select an aramid skeleton material as the skeleton layer, and the weight of the skeleton layer is 200 - 260 g / m 2 , Further, the weight of the skeleton layer is selected to be 220 - 230 g / m 2 ; Even further, the weight of the skeleton layer is selected to be 228 g / m 2 ; Use a hot melt adhesive spraying and compounding machine to glue the flame retardant film and the gas - proof co - extruded film on both sides of the skeleton layer in sequence; specifically, install the aramid skeleton material, the flame retardant film, and the gas - proof co - extruded film on the bracket, align the line positions, then put the cloth from the pre - heating cylinder to the drying port, place the glue well, turn on the return glue motor, and the amount of glue applied is 8 - 10 g / m 2 , Pre - heat, tighten the belt, turn on the power supply, start the motor, run at a low speed, the composite temperature is 95 - 100 °C, and the weight of the composite protective composite material is 550 - 600 g / m 2 , Further, the weight of the protective composite material is 550 - 560 g / m 2 , Even further, the weight of the protective composite material is 550 g / m 2 .

[0019] A protective composite material with high gas - resistance and high flame - retardant performance is applied to a flexible shelter or tent in collective protection equipment.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: A protective composite material with high anti-toxic and high flame-retardant properties designed by the present invention uses a process of co-extruding materials such as TPU, PE, and PVDC together, replacing the most commonly used single-layer composite anti-toxic film in the current market and the process of further compounding a layer of materials such as TPU or PVC outside the anti-toxic film. The flame-retardant performance of this material can reach a damage length of ≤1 mm and a smoldering time of 0 s. The protection level is far greater than the performance indicators required by the highest level A in the "Protective Clothing - Flame Retardant Protection" standard GB8965.1-2009, which requires a damage length of ≤50 mm and a smoldering and afterflame time of ≤2 s. It meets the national standards, has excellent flame-retardant effects, and for the first time applies a composite material with high anti-toxic and higher flame-retardant properties to collective protection equipment. While retaining the original anti-toxic and flame-retardant protection properties, there will be no quality defects such as creases and delamination, greatly reducing the problems of creases and delamination during product use, improving product quality, extending product life, reducing usage costs, being safe and reliable, and suitable for wide promotion and use.
