Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of carbon black functional masterbatch preparation, and specifically relates to a carbon black functional masterbatch and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] As economic development increases the demand for energy, unconventional natural gas pipelines are also booming. In order to ensure the supply of the domestic energy market, the construction of imported natural gas pipelines has also started one after another. HDPE pressure pipes are bound to be the best choice due to their good toughness, crack resistance and ability to resist earthquake damage. In 2016, the apparent consumption of domestic PE100 grade polyethylene pressure pipe materials was about 450,000 tons. In 2022, the demand has increased to 1.42 million tons. It is predicted that the demand will further increase to 1.92 million tons in 2025. In order to meet the rapid growth of demand for special materials for pressure pipes and the intensified changes in market competition, it is necessary to strengthen the research and development of domestic PE100 grade pressure polyethylene pipe materials.

[0003] According to the requirements, the production of PE100-grade gas pipes must use mixed materials, and the performance must meet the extremely high weather resistance and aging resistance requirements on the basis of meeting the pressure-bearing performance of the pipe products. It needs to maintain a service life of up to 50 years, so the requirements are extremely high, and masterbatch is the core key technology for the production of mixed materials.

[0004] At present, the domestic production of masterbatches has not found the right carrier resin, dispersant and suitable carbon black pigment dispersion process, resulting in the inability of domestically produced masterbatches to meet the needs of gas pipe compounding. Therefore, the domestic market has long been dominated by imported masterbatch products, making the cost of domestic compounding very high. Therefore, the independent development of carbon black functional masterbatches for gas pipes can reduce the cost burden of purchasing imported masterbatches and improve the price competitiveness of compounding.

[0005] Therefore, developing a carbon black functional masterbatch with good performance that can be applied to PE100 grade gas pressure pipes and its preparation method has become the focus of research in this field. Summary of the invention

[0006] In order to solve the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a carbon black functional masterbatch and a preparation method and application thereof. The carbon black functional masterbatch has a small particle size and good dispersion stability. The masterbatch is prepared into a blend by melt blending with a PE pipe material, and then extruded through a screw extruder to prepare an EP100 grade pipe that can be used for a gas pressure pipeline.

[0007] A carbon black functional masterbatch, composed of the following raw materials in parts by weight: 40-80 parts of carrier resin, 0.5-2 parts of maleic anhydride grafted polyethylene, 20-50 parts of modified carbon black pigment, 0.1-0.5 parts of fluorine-containing polymer, and 0.1-1.0 parts of antioxidant;

[0008] The modified carbon black pigment is prepared by the following method:

[0009] The carbon black is dissolved in toluene, heated to 80-120°C, and the modification system is added thereto under stirring, and the temperature is raised to 115-120°C to continue the reaction for 1-2 hours, and then cooled to room temperature, and dried under reduced pressure to constant weight, and Soxhlet extraction is performed with acetone as a solvent for 24-36 hours, and finally the sample is dried to obtain a modified carbon black pigment; the modification system is a mixed solution of a multifunctional modifier GMA, 2-phenylimidazoline, and toluene.

[0010] Preferably, the drying is carried out at 60-70°C.

[0011] Preferably, the amount of the modification system is 0.05-0.1 times the amount of carbon black, and the ratio of GMA, 2-phenylimidazoline and toluene in the modification system is 10 g: (0.5-1) g: (20-30) mL.

[0012] Preferably, the carbon black has an average primary particle size of 10-25 nm, an oil absorption value in the range of 50 mL / 100 g to 100 mL / 100 g, and a volatile component of less than 3.5 wt%.

[0013] Preferably, the carrier resin is a trimodal high-density polyethylene resin having a melt flow rate of 0.2-0.5 g / 10 min.

[0014] Preferably, the grafting rate of the maleic anhydride grafted polyethylene is 0.85%, and the melt flow rate is 1-3 g / 10 min.

[0015] Preferably, the fluorine-containing polymer is a copolymer formed by vinylidene fluoride and tetrafluoroethylene in a molar ratio of 1:(0.1-0.45).

[0016] Preferably, the antioxidant is a hindered phenol antioxidant, a phosphite antioxidant, or a mixture of the two in any proportion.

[0017] A method for preparing a carbon black functional masterbatch comprises the following steps:

[0018] (1) Add the carrier resin component into the internal mixer, close the internal mixer charging cover, turn on the heating to make the temperature reach 150°C, start the internal mixer, and stop the internal mixer after the resin is fully plasticized;

[0019] (2) Open the internal mixer, add modified carbon black pigment, maleic anhydride grafted polyethylene, fluorine-containing polymer and antioxidant, then start the internal mixer and continue to mix. When there is no dispersed carbon black pigment around the mixing chamber and all the materials have become a melt mass with a smooth surface, the mixing is completed;

[0020] (3) The kneaded mixture is added into the hopper of a single screw extruder, and then extruded, pulled, cooled, and pelletized by the single screw extruder to form a black masterbatch.

[0021] Preferably, the top bolt pressure of the internal mixer in step (1) is 0.39-0.59 MPa.

[0024] Advantages of the present invention:

[0025] (1) The addition of maleic anhydride grafted polyethylene compatibilizer improves the dispersion stability and compatibility of carbon black in polyethylene carrier resin to a certain extent. Since the maleic anhydride functional group can chemically react with the carboxyl, hydroxyl and other functional groups on the surface of carbon black pigment and additives, it can be firmly combined with the pigment and additives by chemical bond force, thus enhancing the binding force between the two.

[0026] (2) By adding a modification system containing a multifunctional modifier GMA to modify the carbon black surface, the combination of carbon black and polyethylene macromolecular chains can be increased, which is beneficial for the transmission and dispersion of stress, helps to solve the contradiction between high content and high dispersion of small particle size pigments, and improves the dispersion morphology and dispersion stability of carbon black in the carrier resin matrix;
