Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an antistatic film and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of polymer processing and modification. Background Art

[0002] Polyester films are usually colorless, transparent, shiny, and have high toughness. Compared with other plastic films, they have advantages such as high relative density, high tensile strength, and moderate elongation, and are widely used in packaging materials. However, due to the generally poor gas barrier properties of polyester films to water, oxygen and other gases, as packaging materials, the packaged products are easily affected by moisture, oxygen and microorganisms and change. And because the film is exposed to the outdoor environment for a long time during use, due to the electrostatic adsorption effect, dust will adhere to the film, thus reducing the use effect of the product. Therefore, people have been committed to obtaining an antistatic and high-barrier functional film. At present, the barrier modification of polyester mainly focuses on polymer / polymer blends or polymer / inorganic nanoparticle blends. Due to the microtopography of the sea-island structure in the polymer / polymer blend system, the barrier effect on small molecule gases is not good. In the polymer / inorganic nanoparticle blend system, the layered microtopography of the filler is beneficial to extend the gas penetration path and time. However, the inorganic nanoparticles are prone to agglomeration in the matrix, and problems such as random dispersion limit the improvement of their barrier properties and mechanical properties.

[0003] In the existing technology, there are mainly two processing techniques for improving the antistatic performance of polyester materials. One is to add an oil-based antistatic agent to achieve the antistatic effect of the film. The disadvantage is that there will be an oil bleeding phenomenon on the surface layer, and it can only be used for short-term turnover; the other is to coat the antistatic agent on the surface of the film to achieve the antistatic effect, but this process can only ensure an effective antistatic effect within 6 months, and there is no antistatic feature after more than 6 months. Therefore, in view of the current situation of the existing preparation of polyester films, it is of great significance to develop a packaging material with a simple process, a permanent antistatic effect, and easy control of the formation of the internal barrier structure of the film. Summary of the Invention

[0006] According to the weight part ratio, 40-98 parts of polymer A, 1-30 parts of polymer B, 1-30 parts of polyether ester amide, 3-5 parts of two-dimensional filler, 0.01-10 parts of compatibilizer, and 0-10 parts of functional auxiliary agent are melt-processed, and then subjected to biaxial stretching by a flat film biaxial stretching process or traction and winding by a casting process to obtain an antistatic and high-barrier film;

[0007] The polymer A is at least one of polyethylene terephthalate, polyamide, polylactic acid, lactic acid-based copolymer, polyethylene, polypropylene, and vinyl copolymer; the polymer B is at least one of glycolic acid homopolymer, glycolic acid-based copolymer, polyvinyl alcohol, and vinyl alcohol-based copolymer.

[0008] In one embodiment of the present invention, a film or sheet is biaxially stretched at temperature 1 by using melt processing combined with a flat film biaxial stretching process, and then heat-treated at temperature 2 to obtain an antistatic high-barrier film;

[0009] Among them, temperature 1 is 10 - 120°C above the glass transition temperature of polymer A, and temperature 2 is 100 - 160°C.

[0010] In one embodiment of the present invention, temperature 1 is further preferably 10 - 20°C above the glass transition temperature of polymer A.

[0011] In one embodiment of the present invention, melt processing includes melt extrusion, pelletizing, and then forming a sheet by using a casting machine; after melt processing, the sheet is subjected to a flat film biaxial stretching process to obtain a film.

[0012] In one embodiment of the present invention, the casting machine is controlled to prepare a sheet under the conditions of a screw temperature of 260°C and a screw speed of 10 rpm.

[0013] In one embodiment of the present invention, the biaxial stretching ratio in the flat film biaxial stretching process is preferably 4 - 10 times. Preferably 5 - 10 times. More preferably 8 times.

[0014] In one embodiment of the present invention, after melt extrusion and pelletizing, the casting process is used for traction and winding.

[0015] In one embodiment of the present invention, the processing temperature of the casting process is 100 - 260°C, and the draw ratio of traction and winding is 2 - 15 times.

[0016] In one embodiment of the present invention, the processing temperature of melt extrusion is 100 - 260°C, and the screw speed is 300 rpm.

[0017] In one embodiment of the present invention, the polyether ester amide is at least one of polyethylene oxide and polyether ester imide; specifically, MH2030 can be selected.

[0018] In one embodiment of the present invention, by weight ratio, 40 - 80 parts of polymer A, 10 - 30 parts of polymer B, 10 - 30 parts of polyether ester amide, 3 - 5 parts of two-dimensional filler, 0.01 - 10 parts of compatibilizer, and 0 - 10 parts of functional additive. Further, the specific weight ratio of polymer A, polymer B, and polyether ester amide can be: 40 parts of polymer A, 30 parts of polymer B, and 30 parts of polyether ester amide; or 60 parts of polymer A, 20 parts of polymer B, and 20 parts of polyether ester amide; or 80 parts of polymer A, 10 parts of polymer B, and 10 parts of polyether ester amide.

[0021] In one embodiment of the present invention, the functional additive includes at least one of a nucleating agent, a hydrolysis inhibitor, an antioxidant, a lubricant, a chain extender, and a light aging inhibitor.

[0027] (2) In the present invention, by controlling the orderly arrangement of graphene, a conductive network is formed by bridging between graphene and antistatic polyether ester amide, which can better conduct and leak static charges.

[0081] Table 1

[0082]

[0083]

[0084] As can be seen from the data in Table 1, polyethylene terephthalate has poor oxygen barrier performance and is insulating (Comparative Example 1). Melting and blending polyethylene terephthalate with polyglycolic acid and polyether ester amide can improve the barrier performance and antistatic performance to a certain extent, but the improvement effect is limited (Comparative Example 2). By changing the contents of polyether ester amide and two-dimensional filler graphene (Comparative Examples 3-10), the barrier performance and antistatic performance of the film are improved to a certain extent, but they are still far from those of the present invention. This is because the free volume between the molecular chains of polyether ester amide is relatively large, and small molecule gases are easy to pass through, resulting in a decrease in the barrier performance of the material. Although the two-dimensional filler graphene can improve the barrier performance of the material, when the content is relatively high, it is easy to agglomerate and form voids in the material, resulting in a decrease in the barrier performance (Comparative Example 9). In the method disclosed in the present invention (such as Example 1), the blend sheet of polyethylene terephthalate, polyglycolic acid and polyether ester amide is biaxially stretched. By controlling the stretching temperature and stretching ratio, the polymer as the dispersed phase is transformed from a zero-dimensional spherical structure into a two-dimensional sheet structure, which greatly increases the diffusion path of small molecule gases. And the polyether ester amide as the antistatic agent can better form a continuous conductive network under the action of biaxial stretching, improving the leakage ability of static charges. Considering the comparative examples and examples together, adding the two-dimensional filler graphene can produce a synergistic effect with the polymer B in the sheet structure, further improving the barrier performance of the material. And it is easier to form a conductive network by bridging between the two-dimensional filler graphene and the antistatic agent polyether ester amide, significantly improving the conductive performance of the material, making the surface resistivity of the film as low as 10 to the eighth power. In addition, an antistatic high-barrier film prepared by the present invention can also be processed and prepared by the method proposed in the present invention (such as Example 8), effectively enhancing the barrier performance and antistatic performance of the film.
