Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of release agents, and more specifically, it relates to a release agent and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] The silicone release agent is coated and cured on the surface of paper or polyester film to form a dense silicone surface coating. Due to its low surface energy characteristics, the silicone release agent can play the roles of anti-sticking, ensuring the surface quality of products, and protecting the adhesive coating.
[0003] The most widely used solvent-free addition-curing silicone release agent in the market has good curing performance, is easy to use, is harmless to the environment, and can conveniently adjust the release force according to actual needs, and can meet the production requirements of the vast majority of products. The solvent-free silicone release agent is mainly composed of vinyl silicone oil, inhibitor, cross-linking agent, anchoring agent, catalyst, etc. The vinyl silicone oil undergoes a hydrosilylation reaction with the cross-linking agent under the action of a catalyst to cross-link and cure to form a silicone surface coating with low surface energy.
[0004] At present, according to the different release force requirements of different application scenarios, it is usually necessary to add release force additives to the release agent formula. For example, a light release force additive can reduce the release force, and a heavy release force additive can increase the release force. However, the addition of most light release force additives will lead to a decrease in the residual adhesion rate while reducing the release force, so there is room for improvement. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In order to obtain a release agent with low release force and high residual adhesion rate, the present application provides a release agent and a preparation method thereof.
[0006] In a first aspect, the present application provides a release agent, adopting the following technical solution:
[0007] A release agent, comprising the following components in parts by mass:
[0008] 98 - 100 parts of vinyl silicone oil,
[0009] 0.1 - 2 parts of inhibitor,
[0010] 1.5 - 6 parts of cross-linking agent,
[0011] 0.2 - 1 part of anchoring agent,
[0012] 0.5 - 2 parts of platinum catalyst,
[0013] 0.2 - 3 parts of release force regulator;
[0014] The release force regulator is an epoxy group-terminated alkyl fluorosilicone oil.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, under heating conditions, vinyl silicone oil reacts with a cross-linking agent under the action of a platinum catalyst to undergo a silylation reaction to cross-link and solidify to form an organic silicone coating with low surface energy. The anchoring agent can react with the cross-linking agent or the coating substrate to improve the adhesion of the organic silicone coating to the coating substrate, reduce the migration rate of the silicone oil and improve the residual adhesion rate. Epoxy-terminated alkyl fluorosilicone oil is used as a release force regulator. The alkyl fluorosilicone oil is beneficial for further reducing the surface energy of the organic silicone coating, reducing the release force, and improving the anti-sticking effect of the organic silicone surface coating. The blocked epoxy group can react with the surface hydroxyl group of the coating substrate to enhance the force between the release force regulator and the coating substrate, reduce the migration of the alkyl fluorosilicone oil to the surface of the organic silicone coating, reduce the migration rate of the silicone oil, and thus promote the improvement of the residual adhesion rate.
[0016] Preferably, the preparation method of the release force regulator is as follows:
[0017] Using hydroxyl-terminated alkyl fluorosilicone oil as raw material, a solid acid catalyst is added to the hydroxyl-terminated alkyl fluorosilicone oil, and under the protection of nitrogen, epichlorohydrin is slowly added dropwise. The reaction is stirred at 40-80°C for 1-3 hours, and then the solid acid catalyst and unreacted epichlorohydrin are removed to obtain an intermediate product.
[0018] Add a solid base and a quaternary ammonium salt catalyst to the intermediate product, react at 30-60° C. for 1-3 hours under nitrogen protection, and purify to obtain a release force regulator.
[0019] Preferably, the molar ratio of the hydroxyl-terminated alkyl fluorosilicone oil to epichlorohydrin is 1:(2-4).
[0020] Preferably, the mass of the solid acid catalyst is 0.1-2% of the total mass of the hydroxyl-terminated alkyl fluorosilicone oil and epichlorohydrin.
[0021] Preferably, the molar ratio of the hydroxyl-terminated alkyl fluorosilicone oil to the solid base is 1:(0.8-1.5); and the quaternary ammonium salt catalyst is 0.1-3% of the total mass of the hydroxyl-terminated alkyl fluorosilicone oil and the solid base.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, under the action of a solid acid catalyst, epichlorohydrin is ring-opened and reacts with a hydroxyl-terminated alkyl fluorosilicone oil to generate a chemical reaction, which is followed by dehydration to generate a chlorohydrin intermediate product. Then, in an alkaline environment, under the action of a quaternary ammonium salt catalyst, the chlorohydrin intermediate product removes hydrogen chloride and water to generate an epoxy-terminated alkyl fluorosilicone oil. The use of a solid acid or a solid base can obtain a stable acidic or alkaline environment and facilitates recovery. By continuously passing nitrogen, the generation of oxidation by-products is reduced.
[0023] Preferably, the preparation method of the hydroxyl-terminated alkyl fluorosilicone oil is as follows:
[0024] Using trifluoropropylmethylcyclotrisiloxane as a raw material, heat the trifluoropropylmethylcyclotrisiloxane at 40 - 60 °C for 1 - 3 h to dehydrate it, then add 1,3 - bis(3 - hydroxypropyl)tetramethyldisiloxane and an acidic catalyst thereto, stir and react at 40 - 60 °C for 1 - 3 h, neutralize, distill off low - boiling substances under reduced pressure, and filter to obtain a hydroxyl - terminated alkyl fluorosilicone oil.
[0025] Preferably, the molar ratio of the trifluoropropylmethylcyclotrisiloxane to 1,3 - bis(3 - hydroxypropyl)tetramethyldisiloxane is 1:(0.1 - 0.2).
[0026] Preferably, the mass of the acidic catalyst is 0.1 - 3% of the total mass of the trifluoropropylmethylcyclotrisiloxane and 1,3 - bis(3 - hydroxypropyl)tetramethyldisiloxane.
[0027] By adopting the above - mentioned technical solution, using 1,3 - bis(3 - hydroxypropyl)tetramethyldisiloxane as a capping agent, a hydroxyl - double - terminated alkyl fluorosilicone oil can be obtained under the action of an acidic catalyst; using trifluoropropylmethylcyclotrisiloxane as a polymerization monomer, the side chain of the alkyl fluorosilicone oil molecule contains - CF3, which is beneficial to reducing the surface energy of the silicone coating formed by the curing of the release agent and reducing the release force; by limiting the molar ratio of the trifluoropropylmethylcyclotrisiloxane to 1,3 - bis(3 - hydroxypropyl)tetramethyldisiloxane, while the release agent has better bonding fastness to the substrate, the silicon transfer of the release agent can be reduced and the residual adhesion rate can be improved.
[0028] Preferably, the viscosity of the vinyl silicone oil is 200 - 500 cP and the vinyl content is 0.35 - 1.0%.
[0029] By adopting the above - mentioned technical solution, by adjusting the vinyl content and viscosity of the vinyl silicone oil, the release agent product is easy to coat, reducing the possibility of sagging and shrinkage holes in the silicone coating due to too low viscosity, and reducing the possibility of poor leveling and uneven thickness in the silicone coating due to too high viscosity.
[0030] Preferably, the inhibitor is one or a combination of more than one of alkyne compounds and alkynol compounds.
[0031] By adopting the above - mentioned technical solution, the inhibitor can inhibit the cross - linking of the vinyl silicone oil and the cross - linker at room temperature, ensuring the room - temperature storage stability of the release agent solution.
[0032] Preferably, the anchoring agent is one or a combination of more than one of epoxypropoxypropyl - modified polydimethylmethylvinylsiloxane and epoxycyclohexyl - modified polydimethylmethylvinylsiloxane.
[0033] By adopting the above technical solution, the vinyl group in the anchoring agent molecule can crosslink with the crosslinking agent, improving the cohesion of the silicone coating and reducing the silicone oil migration rate. The epoxy group can react with the hydroxyl groups on the surface of the coated substrate, increasing the bonding fastness of the release agent to the coated substrate and anchoring the silicone coating on the coated substrate.
[0034] Preferably, the crosslinking agent is selected from one or a combination of two of trimethyl-terminated polymethylhydrogensiloxane and trimethyl-terminated polydimethylmethylhydrogensiloxane.
[0035] By adopting the above technical solution, the crosslinking agent molecule contains -SiH between its chains. During heat curing, -SiH can undergo an addition reaction with vinyl silicone oil, promoting the crosslinking and curing of vinyl silicone oil.
[0036] In a second aspect, the present application provides a method for preparing a release agent, adopting the following technical solution:
[0037] A method for preparing a release agent includes the following steps
[0038] Mix vinyl silicone oil, inhibitor, crosslinking agent, anchoring agent, catalyst, and release force regulator in proportion and stir evenly to obtain a release agent.
[0039] By adopting the above technical solution, a release agent with low release force and high residual adhesion rate can be obtained, improving the application effect of the release agent.
[0040] In summary, the present application has the following beneficial effects:
[0041] 1. The present application uses epoxy group-terminated alkyl fluorosilicone oil as a release force regulator. Alkyl fluorosilicone oil is beneficial for further reducing the surface energy of the silicone coating, reducing the release force, and improving the anti-sticking effect of the silicone surface coating. The terminated epoxy group can react with the surface hydroxyl groups of the coated substrate, enhancing the interaction between the release force regulator and the coated substrate, and can generate hydrogen bond interactions with the crosslinking agent, etc., improving the cohesion of the silicone coating, reducing the migration of alkyl fluorosilicone oil to the surface of the silicone coating, and reducing the silicone oil migration rate, thereby promoting the improvement of the residual adhesion rate;
[0042] 2. The present application preferably uses trifluoropropylmethylcyclotrisiloxane as a polymerization monomer and 1,3-bis(3-hydroxypropyl)tetramethyldisiloxane as a capping agent, and then obtains epoxy group-terminated alkyl fluorosilicone oil with a -CF3 group in the side chain and double-terminated epoxy groups through a two-step reaction with epichlorohydrin, which can effectively promote the improvement of the residual adhesion rate of the release agent and the reduction of the release force.

[0113] The results are summarized in Table 1.
[0114] Table 1
[0115]
[0116]
[0117] Combined with Examples 1-3, Comparative Example 1 and Table 1, it can be seen that by referring to the formula and preparation method disclosed in the present application, adding an epoxy group-terminated alkyl fluorosilicone oil as a release force regulator in the release agent can enable the release film to have a low release force and a high residual adhesion rate; at the same time, the change range of the residual adhesion rate of the silicone release film after high-temperature aging is reduced, indicating that the aging resistance of the silicone release film is improved.
[0118] Combined with Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 and with reference to Table 1, it can be seen that when using the epoxy group-terminated alkyl fluorosilicone oil prepared with trifluoropropylmethylcyclotrisiloxane as the polymerization monomer as the release agent, compared with using the epoxy group-terminated alkyl silicone oil prepared with triethyltrimethylcyclotrisiloxane as the polymerization monomer as the release agent, it can endow the silicone release film with a lower release force and better aging resistance. This may be because the side chain -CF3 group of the epoxy group-terminated alkyl fluorosilicone oil can migrate to the surface of the silicone release film to reduce the surface energy, and the reaction activity of the fluoroalkyl group with active groups such as hydroxyl groups on the tape surface is poor, reducing the possibility of adverse reactions between the tape and the silicone release film, which is beneficial to ensuring the stability of the residual adhesion rate; at the same time, the doping of fluorine elements can also improve the aging resistance of the silicone coating.
[0119] Combined with Example 1 and Comparative Example 3 and with reference to Table 1, it can be seen that double-capping the alkylfluorosilane with epoxy groups can improve the residual adhesion rate of the silicone release film. This may be because the capped epoxy groups can react with the hydroxyl groups on the substrate surface and participate in the formation of a hydrogen bond cross-linking network in the silicone coating, reducing the migration of the siloxane segments, which is then beneficial to improving the residual adhesion rate.
[0120] Combined with Example 1 and Examples 4 - 6 and with reference to Table 1, it can be seen that with the addition of the capping agent 1,3-bis(3-hydroxypropyl)tetramethyldisiloxane, the average molecular weight of the dihydroxy group-terminated alkyl fluorosilicone oil generated by the reaction decreases, and this leads to a certain increase in the residual adhesion rate; this may be because, with the increase in the dosage of the capping agent, the average molecular weight of the dihydroxy group-terminated alkyl fluorosilicone oil decreases, the hydroxyl group content increases to a certain extent, and after reacting with epichlorohydrin, the epoxy group content increases.
[0121] On the one hand, the hydroxyl groups on the substrate surface can react with the epoxy groups in the anchoring agent to improve the anchoring effect of the release agent on the substrate and enhance the bonding fastness of the release agent. On the other hand, they can react with the release force regulator to reduce silicon transfer; however, the content of hydroxyl groups on the substrate surface is limited. When the epoxy group content in the release force regulator is too high, it may lead to a reduction in the anchoring effect of the anchoring agent, a decrease in the bonding fastness of the release agent to the substrate, and may also result in incomplete combination of the release force regulator molecules with the substrate, causing an increase in silicon transfer and a decrease in the residual adhesion rate.
[0122] In summary, within the scope disclosed in this application, restricting the molar ratio of trifluoropropylmethylcyclotrisiloxane to 1,3-bis(3-hydroxypropyl)tetramethyldisiloxane to 1:(0.1 - 0.2) can enable the release agent to have better bonding fastness to the substrate while reducing the silicon transfer of the release agent and increasing the residual adhesion rate.
[0123] The amount of the dihydroxy endblocker has almost negligible effect on the average molecular weight of the alkyl fluorosilicone oil, indicating that by controlling the addition amount of the endblocker 1,3-bis(3-hydroxypropyl)tetramethyldisiloxane according to the method disclosed in this application, an alkyl fluorosilicone oil with relatively stable properties can be obtained.
[0124] Combined with Example 1, Example 5, Example 6 and Table 1, it can be seen that by adding an appropriate excess of epichlorohydrin to react with the alkyl fluorosilicone oil with hydroxyl double end groups, the blocked hydroxyl groups can be more completely converted into epoxy groups, further ensuring the stability of the residual adhesion rate.
