Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of waterproof fabrics, in particular to a waterproof fabric for outdoor tents and a preparation process thereof. Background Art

[0002] Outdoor tents are very common for camping, wilderness adventures, and other outdoor activities. In outdoor environments, tent fabrics need to possess excellent waterproof properties to protect users from rain. A common waterproof fabric for outdoor tents is coated fabric. This fabric typically has a surface coating that provides waterproofing. Common coating materials include polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and polyurethane (PU). These coatings can be bonded to the fabric through methods such as heat sealing, gluing, or lamination to form a waterproof layer.

[0003] Considering that outdoor tents are prone to moisture and heat accumulation during use, especially in humid or hot environments, this can create a negative user experience. Furthermore, long-term use can damage the hydrophobic coating on the tent's surface. Therefore, when developing waterproof fabrics for outdoor tents, it's important not only to fully consider the tent's breathability but also to enhance the strength of the hydrophobic coating to extend its lifespan. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The object of the present invention is to provide a waterproof fabric for outdoor tents and a preparation process thereof, so as to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a waterproof fabric for outdoor tents and a preparation process thereof, comprising the following steps:

[0006] Step 1:

[0007] Allylmalonic acid, polyethylene glycol 200 and p-toluenesulfonic acid are mixed, toluene is added as a solvent, and the temperature is raised and refluxed to react to obtain a cross-linking monomer;

[0008] Step 2:

[0009] After vacuum dehydration of the raw materials, poly(1,4-butylene adipate) diol and isophorone diisocyanate were mixed and reacted under nitrogen protection; dimethylol propionic acid was added after cooling, and 1,4-butylene glycol and stannous octoate were added after heating to react, and the reaction was continued and a cross-linking monomer was added; after the reaction, the temperature was lowered, triethylamine was added to form a salt, and then deionized water was used for emulsification, and ethylenediamine was added dropwise to obtain a modified polyurethane emulsion;

[0010] Step 3:

[0011] S1: mixing 3-methacryloyldopamine, acrylic acid, butyl acrylate, and octadecyl methacrylate to obtain a mixed monomer;

[0012] S2: adding 1-hydroxybenzotriazole and 1-ethyl-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride to the modified polyurethane emulsion, adding potassium persulfate and mixed monomers in 4 to 5 portions, and reacting to obtain a polyacrylate-modified polyurethane emulsion;

[0013] Step 4:

[0014] A thickener is added to the polyacrylate modified polyurethane emulsion, the fabric is coated on one side, vacuum dried and then vacuum baked to obtain a waterproof fabric for outdoor tents.

[0015] Furthermore, in step 1, the amounts of the components used, by weight, are 28 to 30 parts of allylmalonic acid, 40 to 42 parts of polyethylene glycol 200, and 0.95 to 1 part of p-toluenesulfonic acid.

[0016] Furthermore, in step 2, the specific preparation method of the modified polyurethane emulsion is as follows: after vacuum dehydrating the raw materials, take poly (1,4-butylene adipate) diol and isophorone diisocyanate and mix them, and react at 80-90°C for 1-1.5 hours under nitrogen protection; then cool to 40-50°C, add dihydroxymethylpropionic acid, raise the temperature to 80-90°C and react for 0.5-1 hour, then add 1,4-butanediol and stannous octoate, raise the temperature to 75-80°C and react for 2-3 hours, add a cross-linking monomer, react at 75-80°C for 2-3 hours, cool to 30-40°C, add triethylamine to form a salt for 10-15 minutes, then add deionized water and emulsify for 20-30 minutes, and add ethylenediamine dropwise to react for 5-10 minutes to obtain a modified polyurethane emulsion.

[0017] Furthermore, in S1, the contents of the components in the mixed monomer are, by weight percentage, 2-3% 3-methacryloyldopamine, 40-50% acrylic acid, 48-53% butyl acrylate, and 5-10% octadecyl methacrylate.

[0018] Furthermore, in S2, the specific preparation method of the polyacrylate modified polyurethane emulsion is: add 1-hydroxybenzotriazole and 1-ethyl-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride to the modified polyurethane emulsion, take potassium persulfate and mixed monomers, add them in 4 to 5 times, react for 1 to 2 hours, heat to 80 to 90°C, keep the reaction at this temperature for 0.5 to 1 hour, and cool to 25 to 35°C to obtain the polyacrylate modified polyurethane emulsion.

[0019] Furthermore, in S2, the contents of each component, by weight, are 80 to 95 parts of modified polyurethane emulsion, 6 to 7 parts of 1-hydroxybenzotriazole, 8 to 9 parts of 1-ethyl-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride, 0.15 to 0.18 parts of potassium persulfate, and 20 to 25 parts of mixed monomers.

[0020] Furthermore, in step 4, the thickener is used to adjust the viscosity of the emulsion to 1000-1200 mPa·s.

[0021] Furthermore, in step 4, the coating amount is 28 to 32 g / m 2 .

[0022] Furthermore, in step 4, the vacuum drying temperature is 70-80° C., and the time is 5-10 min; the vacuum baking temperature is 140-150° C., and the time is 5-10 min.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effect achieved by the present invention is: the present invention prepares a polyacrylate-modified polyurethane emulsion, which can be applied to the surface of a fabric to obtain a waterproof fabric that is waterproof, breathable and has self-repairing ability, and can be used to prepare outdoor tents.

[0024] When preparing a polyacrylate-modified polyurethane emulsion, the present invention reacts allylmalonic acid with polyethylene glycol 200 to obtain a cross-linking monomer having a terminal hydroxyl group and a double bond; the cross-linking monomer is introduced into the polyurethane emulsion to improve the moisture permeability of the polyurethane emulsion after forming a coating; however, the introduction of the cross-linking monomer will lead to a decrease in the hydrophobicity of the polyurethane coating, so 3-methacryloyl dopamine, acrylic acid, butyl acrylate, and octadecyl methacrylate are mixed to obtain a mixed monomer, and the mixed monomer is introduced into the polyurethane side chain to achieve modification to obtain a polyacrylate-modified polyurethane emulsion; the coating formed by the modified emulsion has stronger mechanical strength, and since the mixed monomer contains 3-methacryloyl dopamine, the coating is endowed with self-healing properties, and octadecyl methacrylate is a long-chain hydrophobic monomer that migrates to the outer layer, which not only improves the hydrophobicity of the coating surface, but also migrates the 3-methacryloyl dopamine in the polyurethane side chain to the coating surface, thereby improving the self-healing efficiency of the coating.

[0025] When adding mixed monomers, the amount of 3-methacryloyldopamine in the mixed monomers needs to be limited. Because 3-methacryloyldopamine itself contains dopamine molecular segments, excessive levels can reduce hydrophobicity. Furthermore, premature self-polymerization during the emulsion preparation process can cause the molecular segments to agglomerate, creating a "knotted" effect and affecting the self-healing properties of the molecular segments. Therefore, controlling the amount of 3-methacryloyldopamine to 2-3% is optimal. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0129] Conclusion: The data from Examples 1 to 6 show that the emulsion prepared by the present invention has good waterproof and moisture permeability after forming a coating. After the coating breaks, the fracture can be automatically repaired after being treated at 60°C for 6 hours. Applying the emulsion prepared by the present invention to the surface of fabric can ensure that the fabric has good moisture permeability and the user feels good when using it. The data from Comparative Example 1 and Example 1 show that the addition of a cross-linking monomer not only improves the mechanical strength of the coating but also enhances the moisture permeability. The data from Comparative Example 2 and Example 2 show that after modifying the polyurethane with polyacrylate, the mechanical strength and hydrophobicity of the coating are further improved, while also imparting the coating with self-healing ability. The data from Comparative Example 3 and Example 3 show that increasing the amount of 3-methacryloyldopamine in the mixed monomer slightly decreases the hydrophobicity of the coating surface and deteriorates the self-healing ability. The data from Comparative Example 4 and Example 4 show that the addition of octadecyl methacrylate not only enhances the hydrophobicity of the coating but also improves the self-healing efficiency of the coating.
