Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of silicone coatings, and particularly to a room-temperature curing solvent-free silicone coating material and an application method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Silicone has basic properties such as low surface tension, small viscosity-temperature coefficient, good compressibility, and high gas permeability, and has excellent properties such as resistance to high and low temperatures, electrical insulation, oxidation stability, weather resistance, flame retardancy, water repellency, corrosion resistance, non-toxic and odorless, and physiological inertness, and is applied in many fields. Silicone coating materials are an application product of silicone in the coating field. After the silicone material system is made into a solution state and coated on the surface of a substrate and then cured, a thin film structure is formed, which has excellent properties such as high hardness, hydrophobicity, corrosion resistance, flame retardancy, and resistance to high and low temperatures.

[0003] Silanol compounds are one of the commonly used raw materials for preparing silicone coating materials at present. They are prepolymers formed by acid-catalyzed hydrolysis and polycondensation of silane compounds in an alcohol aqueous solution. Since the prepolymers contain a large number of groups such as hydroxyl groups and alkoxy groups, condensation reactions can occur between the hydroxyl groups and between the hydroxyl groups and alkoxy groups by heating to form a cured cross-linked structure. Therefore, they play an important role in the fields of coating adhesives and the like. Although silanol compounds have many advantages, the silicone coatings prepared from silanol compounds in the prior art have problems that acid catalysts and alcohol solvents remain in the prepolymers, and they volatilize into the environment during the heating and curing process, which will cause a large amount of VOC emissions and corrosion risks. Therefore, in order to solve this problem, a preparation method of an organosilicon adhesive disclosed in CN109628062A solves the problems caused by alcohols and residual acids by using calcium carbonate to neutralize the acid and removing water and alcohol by distillation, but the application field of this technical solution is adhesives, so this technical solution does not explore the problems that occur when it is applied in the coating field.

[0004] On the basis of the above content, the present invention further studies the problems existing when silanol compounds are applied in the coating field. It is found through research that the viscosity of the prepolymer increases after the alcohol solvent is removed from the silanol compound, resulting in an increase in the coating application processing difficulty and poor coating flatness. In addition, the traditional curing of silanol compounds uses a heating curing method, and the heating temperature exceeds 100 °C. Therefore, it cannot be applied to the surface of substrates with low heat resistance, and there are problems of small application range and high energy consumption. Therefore, in view of the above problems, a room-temperature curing solvent-free silicone coating material is provided. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to overcome the problems of high viscosity, high curing temperature and great processing difficulty in the coating field of the silanol compounds for removing alcohol and acid in the prior art, the present invention provides a room-temperature curing solvent-free silicone coating material and an application method thereof. The raw materials of the room-temperature curing solvent-free silicone coating material contain a low-viscosity silicone prepolymer and a curing agent. By adding the curing agent, the silicone prepolymer can be cured at room temperature. At the same time, the low-viscosity silicone prepolymer can reduce the processing difficulty, and the coating is continuous, smooth and has high flatness after room-temperature curing.

[0006] The specific technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0007] A room-temperature curing solvent-free silicone coating material, the raw materials include a silicone prepolymer A, a polysiloxane B, a curing agent C and a pigment filler D, and the viscosity of the silicone prepolymer A is 5-100 cst.

[0008] Preferably, the surface drying time of the room-temperature curing solvent-free silicone coating material is ≤60 min, the thickness is ≤20 μm, and the adhesion is ≤2 grades.

[0009] The present invention provides a room-temperature curing solvent-free silicone coating material. The raw materials of the coating material contain a low-viscosity silicone prepolymer and a curing agent. The curing agent can make the silicone prepolymer cure and crosslink at room temperature, significantly reducing the crosslinking temperature of the silicone prepolymer and significantly increasing the application range of the silicone coating material; the low-viscosity silicone prepolymer can reduce the processing difficulty, making the flatness of the silicone coating material formed after its room-temperature curing significantly increase; for the above technical effects, the present invention has found in practical applications that since the traditional silicone prepolymer needs to be cured by heating before it can crosslink and cure to form a silicone coating material, the silicone prepolymer with a relatively high viscosity during the application process can be processed by other processes to form a flat coating and then cured by heating. When the silicone prepolymer with a relatively high viscosity can be cured at room temperature, due to its poor flowability caused by high viscosity, it is difficult to form a silicone coating material with high flatness after room-temperature curing. Therefore, the present invention provides a low-viscosity silicone prepolymer for the above content. The silicone prepolymer has high flowability after coating and can form a continuous, smooth and high-flatness silicone coating material when used for room-temperature curing.

[0122] As shown in Table 1, the application performance of the room-temperature curing solvent-free silicone coating materials in Examples 1 to 10 meets the usage requirements of the composite coating materials (time ≤ 60 min, thickness ≤ 20 μm, adhesion ≤ Grade 2); in addition, from the data results of Comparative Examples 1 to 6, it can be obtained that the ratios of water to silane compounds, lower alcohols to silane compounds, and calcium carbonate to acid in the process of preparing the silicone prepolymer have an important impact on the viscosity of the finally prepared silicone prepolymer. When the ratios are not within the range defined in this application, problems such as excessive or too low viscosity of the silicone prepolymer will occur. If the viscosity is too high, a smooth film layer will be formed; if the viscosity is too low, the formed material will have no adhesion and cannot form a film layer structure on the material surface; in addition, the results of Comparative Examples 7, 8, and 9 show that if the ratio of the curing agent to the silicone prepolymer is too large, problems such as excessive adhesion and a yellowish film layer will occur, and if the ratio of the curing agent to the silicone prepolymer is too small, the problem of excessive adhesion will occur. Also, too large a particle size of the pigment filler will also cause the problem of excessive adhesion.

[0123] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and do not impose any limitations on the present invention. Any simple modifications, changes, and equivalent transformations made to the above embodiments according to the technical essence of the present invention still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
