Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of phenolic resin material preparation, and particularly relates to a preparation method of full-biological-component tannic acid-furfural resin micro-nano balls. BACKGROUND

[0002] The information disclosed in this BACKGROUND section is only for the purpose of increasing the understanding of the general background of the application and does not necessarily constitute an admission by the patent applicant(s) that this information constitutes prior art.

[0003] As a synthetic polymer material, phenolic resin has been widely used in the fields of building, energy, catalysis and biomedical materials, etc. due to its advantages of simple preparation method, high mechanical strength, heat resistance, moisture resistance and other excellent performances. In the field of nanomaterials, phenolic resin micro-nano balls have attracted attention in the research of many frontier materials due to their controllable chemical structure and easy functionalization. However, the synthesis of phenolic resin materials is usually synthesized from petroleum-based chemicals such as common phenol and formaldehyde raw materials, both of which are non-renewable and toxic. With the shortage of petroleum-based resources and the requirement of environmental sustainability and green development, the resin materials synthesized from phenol and formaldehyde have been greatly limited in their application fields. How to develop a resin material synthesized from biological components has become a problem to be solved in the development of current resin materials, which is of great significance to expand its application field.

[0004] In the previous study, the inventors tried and developed a method for preparing lignin-based phenolic resin by replacing phenol with lignin. As known, lignin is a plant-based aromatic polymer with a three-dimensional network structure, containing a large number of aromatic ring structures, aldehyde groups and hydroxyl groups, which can provide aldehyde groups and hydroxyl groups required for phenolic condensation in the process of synthesizing phenolic resin with phenol and formaldehyde, to a certain extent, reducing the amount of phenol and formaldehyde. However, due to the complex molecular structure of lignin and large steric hindrance, the activity of lignin that can participate in the reaction is very low. In addition, it still uses highly toxic formaldehyde as a crosslinking agent in the condensation reaction, so that the synthesized lignin-based phenolic resin material is still a non-green material, and its structural stability is relatively poor. At the same time, the industry has not found a method for preparing full-biological resin micro-nano balls with good structural stability. SUMMARY

[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the application provides a preparation method of full-biological tannic acid-furfural resin micro-nano balls, which replaces phenol with tannic acid and replaces formaldehyde with furfural to synthesize tannic acid-furfural resin micro-nano balls.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the application adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] The first aspect of the present application provides a preparation method of full-bio-based component (tannic acid-furfural) resin micro-nano-spheres, comprising:

[0008] tannic acid, furfural, ammonia, ethanol and water are uniformly mixed and subjected to solidification treatment to obtain tannic acid-furfural resin micro-nano-spheres;

[0009] The molar ratio of tannic acid to furfural is 1:0.06-1:0.4.

[0010] The solidification treatment is performed at 160-180 DEG C for 6-7 h.

[0011] The present application studies the second largest natural organic phenolic polymer-tannic acid in nature as a phenolic monomer, and combines the cross-linking reaction of tannic acid and furfural (furfural is considered to be one of the most high-value chemicals converted from biomass, and is a key chemical in the process of lignocellulosic biorefining, which can be converted from renewable agricultural and forestry resources such as grain crop residues and wood waste) to prepare a preparation method of full-bio-based component (tannic acid-furfural) resin micro-nano-spheres, which is of great significance for enriching the application of resin materials and realizing high-value utilization of bio-based materials.

[0012] The second aspect of the present application provides the tannic acid-furfural resin micro-nano-spheres prepared by the above method.

[0013] Advantages of the present application

[0014] (1) Tannic acid is a typical plant polyphenol derivative containing a large number of catechol and gallic phenol groups, and is considered to be a potential renewable alternative for preparing phenolic resin materials. Furfural is converted from biomass and is considered to be one of the most high-value chemicals, which can be converted from renewable agricultural and forestry resources (such as grain crop residues and wood waste). Therefore, the tannic acid and furfural used in the present application are not only green and sustainable, but also have a large amount of reserves in nature, and the use of tannic acid and furfural for preparing resin micro-nano-spheres meets the current requirements of green production.

[0015] (2) Compared with the phenol involved in the phenolic resin micro-nano spheres, the tannic acid-furfural resin micro-nano spheres produced by the technology have a large number of catechol and guaiacol groups in the structure of the tannic acid-furfural resin micro-nano spheres, and have many application advantages, such as being able to be chelated with different kinds of metal ions to form metal phenolic coordination polymers, endowing the tannic acid-furfural resin micro-nano spheres with many applications, especially as good noble metal adsorbents, catalyst carriers and carbon materials and the like. In addition, the preparation method of the application is simple and practical, and can obtain stable and particle size controllable bio-based tannic acid-furfural resin micro-nano spheres, has the characteristics of low cost and high efficiency, and is easier to popularize in actual industrial application.

[0016] (3) The tannic acid-furfural resin micro-nano spheres prepared by the application can be stably dispersed in different pH values (3, 7, 10) and different organic solutions (MeOH, EtOH and IPA), and can maintain stability for a long time. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0026] In some embodiments, the addition amount of the ammonia (25wt%) is 0.9ml-4ml, and in order to obtain the best particle size and yield, the addition amount of the ammonia (25wt%) is 3ml.

[0027] In some embodiments, the volume ratio of the ethanol aqueous solution is water:ethanol=2:1, and the formed micro-nano spheres have the best morphology and uniformity.

[0029] The application provides a tannic acid-furfural resin micro-nano sphere, which is prepared according to the above method. Phenolic condensation is performed using tannic acid and furfural, and a full-biological tannic acid-furfural resin micro-nano sphere can be prepared, which meets the requirements of green production. In addition, the rich hydroxyl groups in the tannic acid increase the active sites for loading noble metal ions, and the micro-nano sphere can be used as an effective reducing agent to realize in-situ formation of noble metal nanoparticles, so that the micro-nano sphere has the potential to be used as a noble metal catalyst carrier, a hydrogel / film filler and a candidate material of carbon material, and further plays a role in the fields of catalysts, nanomaterial additives, supercapacitors and the like.
