AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

During long-term use, polypropylene geotextiles are prone to fouling due to the aggregation of inorganic salts and microorganisms in the water, resulting in smaller or blocked pores, affecting their diversion function. Existing scale inhibition methods such as improving pore structure or using chemical scale inhibitors have defects in increasing the transmittance of harmful substances or acidification of water bodies.

Method used

Long-chain aliphatic quaternary ammonium salt is used as anti-scatter masterbatch and blended with polypropylene to prepare scale-resistant polypropylene composite fibers. Using the hydrophobicity of the aliphatic long chain and the hydrophilicity and positive electrical properties of the quaternary ammonium salt, the formation and adhesion strength of the scale layer are reduced through electrostatic repulsion and multiple synergistic effects.

Benefits of technology

Effectively prevent the scaling of polypropylene geotextiles, maintain their pore structure and flow diversion function, and do not cause acidification damage to the water body.

The present invention prepares a novel long-chain aliphatic quaternary ammonium salt, and uses the novel long-chain aliphatic quaternary ammonium salt as the anti-scaling masterbatch, and blends it with polypropylene to prepare a series of scale-inhibiting polypropylene composite fibers.

The hydrophilicity of the quaternary ammonium salt is utilized to improve the water permeability, and the positive charge of the quaternary ammonium salt is also utilized to reduce the aggregation of metal ions through the electrostatic repulsion. Through multiple synergistic effects such as lattice distortion and dispersion, the formation and adhesion strength of scale on the surface of the polypropylene composite fiber are affected, so that the scale layer is loose and the adhesion is poor, and the crystal can produce lattice distortion, inhibiting the growth of crystals, and causing the crystallization of the scaling material particles to be loose, thereby achieving the purpose of scale inhibition.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of scale inhibition of polypropylene geotextiles, and specifically relates to a scale inhibition polypropylene masterbatch for geotextile synthetic materials and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The information disclosed in this background technology section is only intended to enhance the understanding of the overall background of the invention, and should not necessarily be regarded as an admission or any form of suggestion that the information constitutes the prior art already known to a person skilled in the art.

[0003] Geosynthetics are thin polymer materials widely used in the fields of environment, hydraulics, etc. Compared with steel and cement, geosynthetics have the advantages of good softness and impact resistance, and are suitable for occasions with large deformation, such as soft soil areas, swamps, frozen soil areas, and areas with complex environments. At present, geosynthetics, especially non-woven polypropylene materials, have multiple functions such as anti-filtration, drainage, anti-seepage, reinforcement and protection, and have been widely used in major infrastructure projects such as high-speed railways, highways, water conservancy, environment and ports.

[0004] Polypropylene geotextile has good water permeability and can intercept and filter particles in the water. However, since the geotextile is in a leachate filtration state for a long time and adsorbs microorganisms in the garbage on the surface, inorganic salts such as calcium and magnesium in the water are easy to accumulate on the surface of the polypropylene geotextile, so it is easy to cause scaling, causing its pores to become smaller or even blocked, resulting in obstruction of the diversion function. Further research found that the geotextile is the first part to scale and the most serious scaling. For example, landfill landslides caused by landfill leachate siltation and high internal gas pressure have been reported many times at home and abroad. In addition, if the leachate water level is too high, it will increase the migration rate of pollutants and the leakage rate of leachate, thereby polluting the surrounding environment, especially the groundwater environment. At the same time, the increase in the leachate water level will expand the saturated volume of the garbage body, inhibit its degradation, and delay the stabilization process of the landfill.

[0005] At present, the commonly used industrial methods for preventing scale of polypropylene geotextiles are: (1) improving the pore structure of geotextiles and increasing water permeability. However, this method will also increase the permeability of some harmful substances;

[0006] (2) Chemical scale inhibition, that is, adding scale inhibitors such as trisodium phosphate and sodium hexametaphosphate to water to prevent scale. However, these scale inhibitors will acidify the water and cause irreversible damage to geosynthetics.

[0007] Therefore, it is of great significance to modify the polypropylene geotextile without changing the void structure of the geotextile and acidifying the water body so as to better prevent scaling. Summary of the invention

[0008] The object of the present invention is to provide a scale-inhibiting polypropylene masterbatch for geotextile synthetic materials and a preparation method thereof, so as to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0009] To this end, the present invention provides a scale-inhibiting polypropylene masterbatch for geotextile synthetic materials, comprising the following components in parts by weight: 93-97 parts of polypropylene resin, 1.5-4 parts of long-chain aliphatic quaternary ammonium salt, 1.3-2.5 parts of compatibilizer, and 0.2-0.5 parts of antioxidant.

[0016] Preferably, the general structural formula of the long-chain aliphatic quaternary ammonium salt is: in Depend on The mixture is fully mixed with hydrochloric acid in a mass ratio of 1000:1-2000:1, and reacted at 25-50°C to obtain the product;

[0017] Depend on The product is prepared by fully mixing with hydrochloric acid at a mass ratio of 1000:1-2000:1 and reacting at 25-50°C.

[0018] Preferably, the Depend on and TsNHNH2(2) in a mass ratio of 50:1-100:1, and NaOH is added to react at 100-150°C to prepare the product.

[0019] Preferably, the Depend on and TsNHNH2(2) in a mass ratio of 50:1-60:1, and NaOH is added to react at 100-150°C to prepare the product.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following characteristics and beneficial effects:

[0021] (1) The present invention prepares a long-chain aliphatic quaternary ammonium salt, and uses the long-chain aliphatic quaternary ammonium salt as an anti-fouling masterbatch, and blends it with polypropylene to prepare a series of anti-fouling polypropylene composite fibers. The hydrophobic effect of the aliphatic long chain is utilized to combine it with the polypropylene fiber and play a hydrophobic role. The hydrophilicity of the quaternary ammonium salt is utilized to improve the water permeability, and the positive charge of the quaternary ammonium salt is also utilized to reduce the aggregation of metal ions through electrostatic repulsion.

[0022] (2) The present invention affects the formation and adhesion strength of scale on the surface of polypropylene composite fibers through multiple synergistic effects such as lattice distortion and dispersion, making the scale layer loose and having poor adhesion, and can cause lattice distortion of the crystals, inhibiting crystal growth and causing the crystallization of scaling material particles to become loose, thereby achieving the purpose of scale inhibition.

[0023] (3) In the present invention, polyisobutylene-grafted maleic anhydride is used as a raw material to prepare a long-chain aliphatic quaternary ammonium salt, so that the long-chain aliphatic quaternary ammonium salt and the polypropylene resin can be well compatible, and a compatibilizer (such as maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene) is added. At this time, polyisobutylene-grafted maleic anhydride, the long-chain aliphatic quaternary ammonium salt and the compatibilizer (such as maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene) have very good compatibility, so that the scale-inhibiting polypropylene masterbatch has good uniformity.

[0024] (4) The surface of the polypropylene geosynthetics modified with the long-chain aliphatic quaternary ammonium salt of the present invention has certain papillae, which can effectively improve the hydrophobic performance, reduce the contact between scale crystals and the surface of the polypropylene material, reduce scale adhesion, inhibit scale deposition, and at the same time make the formed scale loose and sharp, which is easier to be washed away by water.

[0025] (5) The scale-inhibiting polypropylene geosynthetics prepared by the present invention have the characteristics of high water permeability and low scaling. In addition, under the shear force of the water flow, the precipitated scale can be easily separated from the surface of the geosynthetics and enter the solution system, thereby achieving a good surface scale-inhibiting effect.

[0063] Scale inhibition performance test

[0064] The scale-inhibiting polypropylene masterbatch obtained in Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-3 was used to prepare fibers to obtain geotextile synthetic materials, and then the scale-inhibiting performance was tested. The scale-inhibiting performance test method of the scale-inhibiting geosynthetics of the present invention is as follows: CaCl2, MgCl2 and NaHCO3 were used to prepare CaCl2. 2+ Mg 2+ The concentration of hard water is 500mg / L.
