Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of safety engineering technology for suppressing explosions, and specifically relates to an explosion-proof material and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Hydrogen energy is widely recognized as the most promising clean energy source in the 21st century. However, during the production, storage, transportation, and use of hydrogen, when the hydrogen concentration reaches the flammability limit, the mixed gas may burn, deflagrate, or even detonate under certain conditions, causing serious damage and destruction to engineering structures such as bridges and buildings, resulting in significant casualties and property losses.

[0003] Polyurea coatings possess excellent explosion-proof properties, but they are not resistant to high temperatures and are flammable. During hydrogen deflagration, the polyurea coating will be burned by the flame, significantly reducing its explosion-proof performance. Silica aerogels have high porosity (>90%) and low density (0.003-0.1 g / cm³). 3 With its characteristics of high thermal conductivity (0.013-0.14 W / m·K), silica aerogel can absorb and buffer the impact energy generated by hydrogen deflagration. However, silica aerogel is brittle, has low mechanical strength and poor flexibility, and is not very effective as an anti-explosion material when used alone. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an anti-explosion material that has both excellent anti-explosion properties and good flame retardant properties. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an explosion-proof material and its preparation method. The method involves spraying a polyurea coating onto two surfaces of a substrate, then bonding and fixing an aramid nanofiber-silica composite aerogel to one of the polyurea coating surfaces as the explosion-facing side. The polyurea coating without the aramid nanofiber-silica composite aerogel serves as the back side. This invention, by fixing an explosion-proof material with excellent impact resistance and flame retardant properties onto the substrate surface, enables the substrate to resist hydrogen explosions, thereby effectively suppressing the hazards to the surrounding environment caused by hydrogen leakage and building explosion debris.

[0005] The technical problem this invention aims to solve is that while polyurea coatings possess excellent explosion-proof properties, they are not resistant to high temperatures and are flammable. During hydrogen deflagration, the polyurea coating is burned by the flame, significantly reducing its explosion-proof performance. Silica aerogel, on the other hand, has high porosity (>90%) and low density (0.003-0.1 g / cm³). 3 With its characteristics of low thermal conductivity (0.013-0.14 W / m·K), silica aerogel can absorb and buffer the impact energy generated by hydrogen deflagration. However, silica aerogel is brittle, has low mechanical strength and poor flexibility, and is not very effective as an anti-explosion material when used alone.

[0006] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0007] An explosion-proof polyurea coating and its preparation method include the following steps:

[0008] A1. Hydroxylated aramid nanofiber hydrogels were prepared by hydroxylating aramid nanofibers with silane coupling agents: silane coupling agents were dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide to obtain a mixed solution. Aramid nanofibers and potassium hydroxide were added to the mixed solution and magnetically stirred at room temperature for 5-7 days to obtain an aramid nanofiber dispersion. The aramid nanofiber dispersion was added to dimethyl sulfoxide, and then deionized water was added. The solvent was exchanged three times, each time for 1-2 days, to obtain hydroxylated aramid nanofiber hydrogels.

[0009] A2. The hydroxylated aramid nanofiber hydrogel was placed in a supercritical drying device and subjected to supercritical drying to obtain hydroxylated aramid nanofiber aerogel.

[0010] A3. Depositing silica on hydroxylated aramid nanofiber aerogel using chemical vapor deposition to obtain aramid nanofiber-silica composite aerogel: The hydroxylated aramid nanofiber aerogel was placed in a desiccator and tetraethyl orthosilicate and ammonia were introduced respectively. Silica was deposited on the hydroxylated aramid nanofiber aerogel using chemical vapor deposition at 25-30℃ and 18-23kPa to obtain aramid nanofiber-silica composite aerogel.

[0011] In the preparation processes of steps A1, A2, and A3 above, this invention first modifies aramid nanofibers using a silane coupling agent to obtain hydroxylated aramid nanofiber aerogel. Then, using chemical vapor deposition (CVD), tetraethyl orthosilicate is reacted with ammonia water to deposit silica on the surface of the hydroxylated aramid nanofibers. The silanol groups of silica and the hydroxyl groups of the hydroxylated aramid nanofibers undergo a dehydration condensation reaction, causing silica to be grafted onto the surface of the aramid nanofibers in the form of chemical bonds. The resulting silica coating layer is more uniform and robust. Aramid is a high-temperature resistant material with excellent mechanical properties and toughness. Using aramid nanofiber aerogel as a carrier can improve the toughness of silica, making the aramid nanofiber-silica composite aerogel more impact-resistant and with superior flame-retardant properties.

[0012] A4. Spray a polyurea coating onto both surfaces of the substrate. Then, bond and fix aramid nanofiber-silica composite aerogel to one of the polyurea coating surfaces as the blast-facing surface. The polyurea coating without the bonded aramid nanofiber-silica composite aerogel serves as the back surface, thereby forming an blast-resistant material on the substrate surface. Clean the substrate surface, load the isocyanate component and amino compound into the raw material tank of the spraying machine, heat them separately, mix them, and spray them onto both surfaces of the substrate through high-pressure atomization to form a polyurea coating. Then, spray an adhesive onto one of the polyurea coating surfaces to bond and fix the aramid nanofiber-silica composite aerogel to the polyurea coating surface as the blast-facing surface. The polyurea coating without the bonded aramid nanofiber-silica composite aerogel serves as the back surface, thereby forming an blast-resistant material on the substrate surface.

[0013] In the above preparation process, this invention coats polyurea onto two surfaces of a substrate and bonds and fixes aramid nanofiber-silica composite aerogel to one of the polyurea coating surfaces as the blast-facing surface. When hydrogen deflagrates, the flame spreads to the surface of the aramid nanofiber-silica composite aerogel. The aramid nanofibers in the aramid nanofiber-silica composite aerogel carbonize after high-temperature combustion and are encapsulated by the silica layer, forming a barrier layer to prevent the polyurea coating from being burned and damaged. During the hydrogen deflagration, in addition to combustion, a detonation shock wave is also generated. The shock wave is absorbed and buffered when it passes through the aramid nanofiber-silica composite aerogel layer. A portion of the shock wave is absorbed when it passes through the polyurea coating, and the remaining portion is absorbed by the substrate and the polyurea coating on the back side. The polyurea coating on the back side can act as a restraint layer, and its excellent flexibility can encapsulate fragments, preventing fragments generated by the substrate explosion from causing harm to the surrounding environment and personnel. Due to the protection of the aramid nanofiber-silica composite aerogel, the polyurea coating is not easily burned by the flame, so the explosion-resistant material prepared by this invention can withstand multiple explosion impacts.

[0014] Further, in step A1, the volume ratio of silane coupling agent to dimethyl sulfoxide in the mixed solution is 0.12-0.23:1; the silane coupling agent is 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane; and the mass-volume ratio of aramid nanofibers, potassium hydroxide, and the mixed solution is 12-15g:16-20g:1-1.3L.

[0015] Furthermore, in step A2, during the supercritical drying process, the drying medium is CO2, the drying temperature is 55-65℃, the drying pressure is 14-16MPa, and the holding time is 1-2h.

[0016] Furthermore, in step A3, the volume ratio of tetraethyl orthosilicate to ammonia is 3-4:20, and the reaction deposition time is 6-10 hours.

[0017] Furthermore, in step A4, the molar ratio of the isocyanate component to the amino compound is 1.1-1.2:1; the heating temperature is 28-32℃.

[0018] Furthermore, in step A4, the thickness of the polyurea coating on the explosion-facing side is 3-5 mm; the thickness of the polyurea coating on the back side is 6-8 mm; and the thickness of the aramid nanofiber-silica composite aerogel is 7-10 mm.

[0019] Furthermore, the substrate includes devices for transporting or storing hydrogen, such as pipes and concrete walls.

[0020] The explosion-proof material was prepared using the method described above.

[0021] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0022] (1) In the technical solution of the present invention, silica is grafted onto the surface of aramid nanofiber in the form of chemical bonds, and the resulting silica coating layer is more uniform and firm. Aramid is a high temperature resistant material with excellent mechanical properties and toughness. Using aramid nanofiber aerogel as a carrier can improve the toughness of silica, making the aramid nanofiber-silica composite aerogel more impact resistant, and the flame retardant properties of silica coating aramid are more excellent.

[0023] (2) In the technical solution of the present invention, the polyurea coating and the aramid nanofiber-silica composite aerogel are sequentially adhered to the surface of the substrate and serve as the explosion-proof surface. When hydrogen is deflagrated, the flame spreads to the surface of the aramid nanofiber-silica composite aerogel. The aramid nanofibers in the aramid nanofiber-silica composite aerogel are carbonized after high-temperature combustion and are wrapped by the silica layer to form a barrier layer, preventing the polyurea coating from being burned and damaged. Therefore, the explosion-proof material prepared by the present invention can resist multiple deflagration impacts.

[0024] (3) In the technical solution of this invention, during the hydrogen deflagration process, in addition to combustion, a detonation shock wave is also generated. The shock wave is absorbed and buffered when it passes through the porous material of the aramid nanofiber-silica composite aerogel layer. When the shock wave passes through the polyurea coating, a portion is absorbed again, and the remaining portion is absorbed by the substrate and the polyurea coating on the back. The multiple strong interface structures improve the explosion resistance of the substrate. The polyurea coating on the back can serve as a restraint layer, and its excellent flexibility can wrap the fragments, preventing the fragments generated by the substrate explosion from causing harm to the surrounding environment and personnel.
