Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of polymer composite materials technology, specifically to a high GWFI value, laser-markable glass fiber reinforced MCA / PA6 flame-retardant composite material and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] PA6, polymerized from caprolactam monomers, possesses characteristics such as wear resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, good mechanical properties, and ease of modification and processing. It is an important engineering material widely used in automotive, communications, electronics, and mechanical parts industries. However, due to the extreme operating environments PA6 frequently encounters in electronics applications, such as high temperatures and short circuits, flammability becomes a potential safety hazard. Therefore, in the electronics field, PA6 materials are required to have a glow wire flammability index (GWFI) of 960℃ and good mechanical properties. Furthermore, special electronic components also require the material to be laser-markable.
[0003] Melamine cyanurate (MCA), a nitrogen-based flame retardant developed in the 1980s, boasts advantages such as high flame retardant efficiency, halogen-free, low toxicity, low smoke, and low cost, leading to its widespread application in polyamide flame retardancy. However, MCA is prone to agglomeration during mechanical blending, resulting in uneven dispersion in PA6 and affecting its flame retardant effect. Furthermore, the improvement in PA6 flame retardancy by MCA is insufficient to offset the negative impact of the glass fiber "wick effect," and MCA / PA6 flame retardant materials lack laser-markable properties. These shortcomings limit the material's application to some extent. Therefore, appropriate technical solutions are needed to improve the dispersion of MCA in PA6, reduce the impact of the glass fiber "wick effect" on GWFI performance, and endow PA6 with laser-markable properties. This has significant theoretical and practical value for expanding the application of glass fiber reinforced MCA / PA6 flame retardant materials in the electronics and electrical fields.
[0004] Chinese patent CN 115637042 A discloses a high glow wire ignition temperature nitrogen-based flame-retardant nylon modified material prepared by melt blending 50-80 parts of nylon resin, 10-25 parts of modified nitrogen-based flame retardant MCA, 15-25 parts of modified alkali-free glass fiber, and 0.5-5 parts of processing aids using a twin-screw extruder. However, the tensile strength of this material can only reach a maximum of 79 MPa, its mechanical properties are relatively low, the flame retardant content is high, and it is quite brittle, making it difficult to meet the requirements of higher-end electronic and electrical appliance housings. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the above-mentioned background technology and provide a high GWFI value, laser-markable glass fiber reinforced MCA / PA6 flame-retardant composite material and its preparation method. This material has excellent glow wire properties, as well as good mechanical properties and laser-markable characteristics.

[0008] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, the modification method of the modified MCA flame retardant is as follows: using anhydrous ethanol as a solvent, dilute hydrochloric acid is added to the reaction solution of MCA, sodium silicate and nano-lignin under stirring until the reaction system is completely reacted. During the reaction, the temperature of the reaction system is controlled at a constant temperature of 60℃-80℃. After the reaction is completed, the coated MCA is obtained by filtration, washing, drying and pulverizing. Finally, an organosilicon surfactant solution is mixed into the coated MCA, and the modified MCA flame retardant is obtained after drying again.
[0009] Further, in some embodiments of the present invention, the modification method of the modified MCA flame retardant is as follows: using anhydrous ethanol as a solvent, MCA, sodium silicate and nano-lignin are added to a single-layer glass reactor equipped with mechanical stirring in a weight ratio of 7-9:0.5-2:0.5-2. Then, dilute hydrochloric acid is slowly added dropwise under stirring until the reaction system in the reactor is completely reacted. After the addition of dilute hydrochloric acid is completed, stirring is continued for 2-4 hours. The temperature of the reaction system is controlled at a constant temperature of 60℃-80℃ using a water bath. After the reaction is completed, the coated MCA is obtained by filtration, washing, drying and pulverizing. Finally, an organosilicon surfactant solution is mixed into the coated MCA, and after drying again, the modified MCA flame retardant is obtained.
[0010] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, in the modification method of the modified MCA flame retardant, the amount of anhydrous ethanol is 2-4 times the total mass of the three materials MCA, sodium silicate and nano-lignin, and the concentration of dilute hydrochloric acid is 2wt%-5wt%.
[0011] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, in the modification method of the modified MCA flame retardant, the organosilicon surfactant is one or more of the following: polyether-type organosilicon surfactant, alkanolamide-type organosilicon surfactant, phosphate ester-type organosilicon surfactant, carboxylate-type organosilicon surfactant, sulfonate-type organosilicon surfactant, and quaternary ammonium salt-type organosilicon surfactant.
[0012] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, in the modification method of the modified MCA flame retardant, the organosilicon surfactant solution is an aqueous solution, wherein the content of the organosilicon surfactant is 3wt%-5wt%.
[0013] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, the amount of the organosilicon surfactant solution is 3wt%-8wt% of the coated MCA.
[0014] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, more than 90% of the length of the short glass fibers is distributed between 0.15mm and 0.5mm.
[0015] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, the laser engraving powder is one or more of nano bismuth oxide powder, nano tin antimony oxide powder, Merck Iriotec8815 powder, Merck Iriotec8208 powder, Merck Iriotec8825 powder and Merck Iriotec8850 powder.
[0016] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, the lubricant is one or more of OP wax, E wax, calcium stearate, aluminum stearate, silicone powder, ethylene bis-stearamide, and pentaerythritol stearate.
[0017] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, the antioxidant is one or more of antioxidant 1010, antioxidant 1098, antioxidant 245, antioxidant 1076, antioxidant 3391, antioxidant 445, antioxidant H10, antioxidant HS-02, antioxidant S9228, antioxidant 168, antioxidant P-EPQ, antioxidant PEP-36, antioxidant 626, and antioxidant 608.
[0018] The laser engraving powder, lubricant, and antioxidant in the composite material described in this invention are not limited to the above-mentioned items; the examples are merely illustrative.
[0019] Furthermore, the present invention also provides a method for preparing the aforementioned high GWFI value, laser-markable glass fiber reinforced MCA / PA6 flame-retardant composite material. The method is as follows: firstly, PA6 resin, modified MCA flame retardant, laser engraving powder, titanium dioxide, lubricant and antioxidant are mixed evenly to obtain a premix. Finally, the premix is fed into a twin-screw extruder in a certain weight ratio using a feeding weighing scale through a main feeder and short glass fibers through a side feeder for melt blending and extrusion granulation to obtain the glass fiber reinforced MCA / PA6 flame-retardant composite material.
[0020] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are as follows:
[0021] (1) In this invention, nano-lignin, sodium silicate and organosilicon surfactant are used to modify MCA flame retardant. After modification, the dispersibility and char formation of MCA flame retardant in PA6 are improved, and the flame retardant performance of glow wire is further improved.
[0022] (2) In the glass fiber reinforced MCA / PA6 composite material prepared by the present invention, most of the glass fiber length can be retained at 60%-80%, and the length is mainly distributed in 0.1-0.35mm. This allows the glass fiber to have a certain reinforcing effect while reducing its "wick effect" on the material during combustion to a certain extent, thereby further improving the glow wire flame retardant performance of the composite material.
[0023] (3) By adding laser engraving powder, titanium dioxide and modified MCA, the composite material can be marked with "white-black" information by laser marking machine. Detailed Implementation

[0068] Material testing methods
[0069] The Glow Wire Flammability Index (GWFI) characterizes the flame retardant performance of a product: tested according to IEC 60695 standard.
[0070] Mechanical properties: Tensile strength was tested according to ISO 527.
[0071] Color difference ΔE before and after laser marking: First, a 60mm×6mm×2mm sample square plate is laser marked with a laser marking machine. The marking pattern is a circular area with a diameter of 20mm. Then, the color difference ΔE before and after laser marking is tested using a colorimeter according to ISO 7724 / 3 standard.
[0072] All test specimens were prepared using an injection molding machine, and the test results are shown in Table 1.
[0073] Table 1. Performance test results of composite materials prepared in each embodiment and comparative example.
[0074]
[0075]
[0076] Table 1 shows the performance test results of the glass fiber reinforced MCA / PA6 flame-retardant composite materials prepared in each embodiment and comparative example. The test results in Table 1 show that the flame-retardant composite material prepared by this invention has excellent resistance to glow wire, mechanical properties, and laser marking characteristics.
[0077] Specifically, as can be seen from Examples 1-3, the modified MCA flame retardant prepared in this invention exhibits good overall performance in PA6 composite material applications.
[0078] As can be seen from Examples 1 and 4-6, the mechanical properties of the composite material of the present invention are improved with the increase of glass fiber content, while the GWFI performance of the material is almost unaffected, and the excellent laser marking effect is maintained.
[0079] The comparison between Example 6 and Comparative Example 1 shows that the modified MCA flame retardant prepared in this invention has better mechanical properties and GWFI performance than the unmodified MCA flame retardant. This indicates that the dispersibility and char formation of the modified MCA flame retardant in PA6 are improved, and the flame retardant efficiency of the mechanical properties is further improved.
[0080] A comparison of Example 6 and Comparative Example 2 shows that if the original length of the glass fiber used in the side-feeding is >0.5mm, although the mechanical properties are high, the composite material will exhibit a more severe "wick effect" during combustion, causing the product GWFI to fail the 960℃ test.
[0081] A comparison of Example 6 with Comparative Examples 1 and 3-4 shows that by adding laser engraving powder, titanium dioxide, and modified MCA in combination, the composite material of the present invention can be marked with clearer information using a laser marking machine.
[0082] Those skilled in the art will readily understand that the above description is merely an embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
