Abstract

The application discloses a preparation method of nano-titanium dioxide and acrylic modified water-based alkyd resin and belongs to the technical field of alkyd resin. The alkyd resin is prepared by inserting nano-titanium dioxide and acrylic resin branches into four-arm polyethylene glycol after the nano-titanium dioxide is treated by titanium isopropyl triisostearate. The modified alkyd resin adopts four-arm polyethylene glycol as the main chain of the hyperbranched structure of the alkyd resin. Since the four-arm polyethylene glycol contains a large number of oxygen atoms, a large number of gaps are generated in the alkyd resin molecules after the polymerization reaction, the gaps can allow the acrylic resin branches and nano-titanium dioxide and other substances to enter, so that the uniformity of the resin is improved, and the four-arm polyethylene glycol as the main chain of the hyperbranched structure of the alkyd resin can improve the hardness and flexibility of the alkyd resin, and prevents the cracking of the paint.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of alkyd resin technology, specifically a method for preparing a waterborne alkyd resin modified with nano-titanium dioxide and acrylic acid. Background Technology

[0002] Alkyd resin is a polyester resin mainly composed of vegetable oils. Its raw materials are widely available, production costs are low, the preparation process is stable, and its performance is excellent, making it widely used in the coatings industry. However, existing alkyd resins often contain a large amount of pentaerythritol during preparation. Pentaerythritol has a small molecular weight and high molecular flexibility, resulting in low hardness and easy decomposition of the prepared alkyd resin. Therefore, it is necessary to add other components during the resin preparation process to improve the resin's hardness.

[0003] Nano-titanium dioxide, as an additive, can improve the gloss, hardness, wear resistance, and stability of coatings, and has a very broad application prospect in the coatings industry. However, nano-titanium dioxide solid is insoluble, resulting in poor dispersibility when directly added to coatings, and sedimentation occurs after long-term storage. Therefore, how to improve the dispersibility of nano-titanium dioxide in coatings and maximize its effects on gloss, hardness, wear resistance, and stability has always been a problem that technicians have been constantly exploring to solve. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the above problems, the present invention aims to provide a method for preparing nano-titanium dioxide and acrylic acid-modified waterborne alkyd resin.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention employs the following technical solution: A method for preparing a waterborne alkyd resin modified with nano-titanium dioxide and acrylic acid includes the following steps: ① By weight, add 100-150 parts of vegetable oil, 10-20 parts of tetraethylene glycol, 5-15 parts of pentaerythritol, 5-10 parts of benzoic acid, and 30-40 parts of phthalic anhydride to a reaction vessel, stir and heat to 150-160℃, stir and react for 1-2 hours, continue to heat to 200-210℃, stir and react for 3-5 hours, cool to 20-35℃ to obtain an alkyd resin solution for later use; The vegetable oil is one or two of soybean oil, castor oil, or linseed oil; ② Add 5-15 parts of nano titanium dioxide, 0.1-1 parts of triisostearate titanate isopropyl triisostearate, 30-50 parts of ethanol, and 20-30 parts of water to a mixing reactor, and stir and mix at 25-45℃ for 1-2 hours to obtain a nano titanium dioxide solution. ③ Add 30-40 parts of organic solvent, 30-40 parts of styrene, 10-15 parts of butyl acrylate, 10-20 parts of hydroxyethyl acrylate, 20-30 parts of methyl methacrylate, and 1-5 parts of initiator to a reaction vessel, stir and heat to 90℃, add the alkyd resin solution obtained in step ① in several portions, controlling the temperature of the reaction vessel to not exceed 120℃ during the addition, and continue to add the nano titanium dioxide solution obtained in step ② to the reaction vessel, stir and react at 100-120℃ for 2-5 hours, add organic amine to neutralize to an acidity of 20-26 mg KOH / g, cool to 25-45℃, and disperse at high speed for 0.5-1 hour to obtain nano titanium dioxide and acrylic acid modified waterborne alkyd resin.

[0006] Preferably, the vegetable oil is composed of castor oil and linseed oil in a mass ratio of 1:2 to 5.

[0007] Preferably, the organic solvent is obtained by mixing an alcohol ether solvent and No. 100 solvent oil at a mass ratio of 1:2~4; the preferred alcohol ether is diethylene glycol monomethyl ether, propylene glycol methyl ether or dipropylene glycol dimethyl ether. The organic amine is dimethylethanolamine or AMP-95.

[0008] Preferably, the molecular weight of the four-armed polyethylene glycol is 3000-5000.

[0009] Preferably, the nano-titanium dioxide is activated before use, specifically by calcining at 200-250°C for 2-3 hours.

[0010] Preferably, the initiator is benzoyl peroxide or azobisisobutyronitrile.

[0011] The present invention has the following advantages over the prior art: The modified alkyd resin of this invention uses four-arm polyethylene glycol as the main chain of the hyperbranched structure of the alkyd resin. Because four-arm polyethylene glycol contains a large number of oxygen atoms, after polymerization, a large number of voids are generated throughout the alkyd resin molecule. These voids allow acrylic resin branches and nano-titanium dioxide to enter, thereby improving the uniformity of the resin. Furthermore, using four-arm polyethylene glycol as the main chain of the hyperbranched structure of the alkyd resin can improve the hardness and flexibility of the alkyd resin, preventing cracking in the coating. On the other hand, this invention uses isopropyl triisostearate titanate to modify nano-titanium dioxide, overcoming the problem of insufficient uniformity of nano-titanium dioxide and preventing the precipitation of nano-titanium dioxide in the alkyd resin. Through the acrylic resin branches interspersed in the alkyd resin, the mechanical properties of the alkyd resin can be improved, the drying speed of the resin can be increased, and the stability of the resin can be enhanced.
