Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of architectural coatings, specifically relating to an aqueous acrylic emulsion for mesh fabric and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Fiberglass mesh is a new type of alkali-resistant product made from medium-alkali or alkali-free fiberglass yarn woven into a fiberglass mesh substrate, then coated with acrylic copolymer solution and dried. This product features stable structure, high strength, good alkali resistance, corrosion resistance, and crack resistance, providing optimal reinforcement. It is also simple and easy to install, primarily suitable for reinforcing and crack-preventing the interior and exterior surfaces of cement, gypsum, and wall structures. It is a new type of building material for external wall insulation projects.

[0003] Currently, problems such as poor shaping effect, low strength, and easy detachment of glass fibers occur during the preparation of mesh fabric. This is due to the low degree of cross-linking in the synthesis of water-based mesh fabric emulsion, resulting in the generation of low molecular weight oligomers. The main reasons for the emulsion formulation are the ratio of main monomers in the synthesized emulsion and the lack of grafting of effective functional monomers, which leads to low strength of the coating film after drying. Once subjected to mechanical external force, the shaping effect of the coating film will be destroyed. As a result, not only will the coating film lose its adhesive properties, but the glass fiber raw material will also lose its usability, greatly affecting the performance of the mesh fabric. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention provides an aqueous acrylic emulsion for mesh fabric and its preparation method, in order to solve the problems of looseness, breakage, and poor shaping effect that exist in existing mesh fabrics coated with acrylic copolymer liquid after drying.

[0005] The present invention solves the above-mentioned technical problems by adopting the following technical solutions:

[0006] An aqueous acrylic emulsion for use in mesh fabrics comprises, by weight, 10-20 parts acrylic acid and its ester monomers, 15-20 parts styrene monomers, 1-2 parts emulsifier, 0.1-0.3 parts initiator, 0.02-0.12 parts organosilicon monomer, 0.5-1 part crosslinking monomer, and 66-69 parts water, wherein the organosilicon monomer is a vinyl silane monomer, and the crosslinking monomer is a hydroxyl-containing propylene monomer.

[0007] Preferably, the acrylic acid and its ester monomers are composed of hard monomers and soft monomers, wherein the hard monomers include acrylic acid, acrylamide, methacrylic acid, and methyl methacrylate; more preferably, the hard monomers include methyl methacrylate, acrylic acid, and acrylamide;

[0008] The soft monomer includes at least one of isooctyl acrylate, n-butyl acrylate, isobutyl acrylate, and ethyl acrylate; more preferably, the soft monomer includes n-butyl acrylate.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the acrylic acid and its ester monomers are composed of the following components in parts by weight: 9-12:2:1:1 n-butyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, acrylic acid, and acrylamide.

[0010] Preferably, the styrene monomer includes at least one of styrene, 3-chlorostyrene, 4-chlorostyrene, and p-chlorostyrene; more preferably, the styrene monomer includes styrene.

[0015] A method for preparing an aqueous acrylic emulsion for mesh fabric includes the following steps:

[0016] Step (1) The acrylic acid and its ester monomers, the styrene monomers, the organosilicon monomers, water, and part of the emulsifier are mixed and pre-emulsified to obtain a pre-emulsified monomer;

[0017] Step (2) Water and the initiator are mixed to obtain initiator addition liquid A; the remaining emulsifier and water are mixed to obtain bottom liquid B;

[0018] Step (3) Take 4-6 wt% of pre-emulsified monomer and mix it with the bottom liquid B. Then add the initiator addition liquid A mentioned in Part 1 to carry out the initial reaction. After the initial reaction is completed, add the remaining pre-emulsified monomer and the initiator addition liquid A mentioned in Part 2 at the same time. After reacting for a period of time, start adding crosslinking monomer to continue the reaction. Finally, after heat preservation reaction, material C is obtained.

[0019] In step (4), the initiator added to the third part A is added dropwise to the material C. After the reaction is kept at a constant temperature, the pH value of the system is adjusted to 7-9 to obtain the final product.

[0020] In some embodiments, the initiator includes at least one of ammonium persulfate, potassium persulfate, and sodium persulfate.

[0021] In some embodiments, the weight ratio of the initiator in the first part, the initiator in the second part, and the initiator in the third part is (1.2-1.5):1:(0.1-0.4).

[0022] In some embodiments, the mass ratio of a portion of the emulsifier to the remaining portion of the emulsifier is 1.25-1.35:1, for example, in a particular embodiment, it is preferably 1.3:1.

[0023] In step (1), the pre-emulsification conditions and methods are conventional in the art and can generally be carried out under stirring conditions.

[0024] In step (2), when preparing material A, the temperature of the mixing reaction is the temperature conventional for this type of operation in the art, preferably 18-25℃.

[0025] In step (2), when preparing material B, the mixing temperature is 85-87℃.

[0026] In step (3), the initial reaction time is 5-10 min, preferably 6-8 min.

[0027] In step (3), the portion of seed pre-emulsified monomer taken is preferably 4-6 wt%.

[0028] In step (3), after the remaining pre-emulsified monomer and the initiator added to the second part A are added dropwise for 1.5 to 2.5 hours, the crosslinking monomer is added dropwise for 3 to 4 hours.

[0029] In step (3), the reaction temperature is 82-87℃, more preferably 84-87℃.

[0030] In step (3), the temperature of the heat preservation reaction is the conventional temperature for this type of operation in the art, preferably 84-87°C, and the time of the heat preservation reaction is the conventional time for this type of operation in the art, preferably 1-2.5h, preferably 1.5-2h.

[0031] In step (4), the second heat preservation reaction may be followed by a cooling operation, which can generally be reduced to below 40°C, preferably to 15-40°C.

[0032] The reagents and raw materials used in this invention are all commercially available.

[0033] Compared with the prior art, the positive and progressive effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0034] In addition to soft and hard monomers, the waterborne acrylic emulsion of this invention contains styrene monomers and vinyl-containing silanes and hydroxyl-containing functional crosslinking monomers. The addition of styrene monomers helps to improve the hardness and strength of the emulsion, while vinyl-containing silanes and hydroxyl-containing functional crosslinking monomers can undergo coupling reactions with polar groups such as hydroxyl and carboxyl groups in acrylic molecules to form strong covalent bonds, which helps to improve the strength and molecular weight of the paint film. The prepared acrylic emulsion, after being wrapped in a mesh cloth, can still maintain a certain paint film state even when subjected to mechanical external forces and is not easily dispersed and deactivated.

[0035] Furthermore, the timing of the addition of organosilicon monomers and crosslinking monomers during emulsion preparation significantly impacts the emulsion's strength properties. In this invention, the organosilicon monomers are added during the initial reaction, while the crosslinking monomers are added later in the dropwise reaction. Initially, the pre-emulsified monomers containing organosilicon monomers undergo polymerization. A small portion of the pre-emulsified monomers, acting as an initiator, first undergoes preliminary polymerization in the emulsifier (i.e., seed emulsion polymerization), forming a sufficient number of sufficiently small latex particles in the micelles. These particles then continue polymerization with a large quantity of other monomer raw materials. Subsequent reactions, with the addition of crosslinking monomers, cause the polymer particles to gradually grow, forming a uniform network of polymer dispersions. This process facilitates the coupling reaction between the organosilicon monomers, crosslinking monomers, and polar groups such as hydroxyl and carboxyl groups in the acrylic acid molecules. Vinyl functional groups are effectively grafted onto the long polymer chains, resulting in a stable reaction, moderate particle size, increased molecular weight and post-crosslinking strength, and ultimately improved product strength properties.

[0036] The preparation process of the water-based mesh fabric emulsion obtained by this invention is easy to control, the synthesis reaction is stable, the apparent particle size is moderate, and the amount of slag is low. Through this process, the coating film strength of the water-based mesh fabric emulsion in the later stage is enhanced. Attached Figure Description
