TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of civil engineering, and relates to a graphene anticorrosive coating for steel structures suitable for marine corrosive environments and a preparation method. BACKGROUND
[0002] In recent years, with the continuous development of China's economy and the implementation of the marine strategy, a large number of island construction, cross-sea bridges, port development, marine pipe corridors and other major national projects are accelerating. However, due to the existence of various erosion media in the harsh marine environment, durability problems such as rusting, chloride ion erosion and sulfate corrosion of steel structures occur. These problems have been prevalent in infrastructure projects in China's marine environment for many years and have shown a trend of increasing year by year, which greatly threatens the overall performance of steel structures in the marine environment. Therefore, anticorrosive coatings are needed to isolate water vapor, chloride ions, sulfates and other substances in the marine environment to avoid overall instability problems caused by corrosion of steel structures.
[0003] Existing steel structure protection mostly uses epoxy resin as an anticorrosive coating layer, but there are inevitably some pores in the epoxy resin, which are easily eroded by ions such as chloride ions and sulfate ions in the marine atmosphere with high concentration and large diffusion coefficient. In addition, the molecular weight of epoxy resin is large, and the hardness after curing is high, which is prone to stress concentration. Furthermore, there are many small molecules and unstable compounds such as free amines and epoxy groups in epoxy resin, which are prone to oxidation, electron loss and other reactions under the action of acid and ultraviolet light, and age quickly, which easily causes the coating to peel off. The patent with publication number CN107353773A discloses a water-based epoxy anticorrosive coating containing graphene, its preparation method and application. The graphene oxide and silicon dioxide do not chemically react with the epoxy resin, but are physically distributed in the epoxy resin. The structure of the prepared coating is unstable, is prone to aging and has poor durability.
[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to seek a new anticorrosive coating for steel structures that is resistant to aging, not prone to peeling and suitable for marine corrosive environments. SUMMARY

[0077] The performance comparison effect of the corrosion-resistant coatings prepared by Examples 1-5 and the existing epoxy resin coatings and polyurethane coatings is shown in Table 1.
[0078] Table 1 Performance comparison effect of the corrosion-resistant coatings prepared by Examples 1-4 and the existing coatings
[0079]
[0080]
[0081] The main component of the epoxy coating in Table 1 is epoxy resin, and the main component of the polyurethane coating is polyurethane. As can be seen from Table 1, the steel structure corrosion-resistant coating prepared by Examples 1-4 has excellent corrosion resistance, and no defects such as discoloration, blistering, cracking, peeling, rusting and adhesion reduction are found during the test. The steel structure corrosion-resistant coating prepared by Example 5 has incomplete reaction of raw materials due to the reaction temperature exceeding the specified range, has larger internal pores, and has decreased adhesion, so the corrosion resistance of the prepared steel structure corrosion-resistant coating is decreased, and a small amount of defects such as blistering, cracking, peeling and rusting are found on the surface during the test. The microstructure of the steel structure corrosion-resistant coating prepared by the preparation method of Examples 1-5 of the present application is shown in Figure 1, and the pores are small, and the graphene and nano materials are uniformly distributed in the corrosion-resistant coating, which enhances the internal bonding force and toughness of the coating, and the corrosion resistance, immersion resistance and adhesion of the steel structure corrosion-resistant coating prepared by the preparation method of Examples 1-5 of the present application are significantly improved compared with the traditional coating. Figures 1-5 Figures 6-7
[0082] In the examples of the present application, the molar ratio of succinic acid and butanediol is 1:1.5-3, which is mainly to generate activated polybutylene succinate. If the amount of polybutylene succinate generated exceeds this range, it is insufficient to react with tetraethyl orthosilicate, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and sodium methylsilanol, which will affect the generation of subsequent chemical bonds, and the performance of the generated graphene corrosion-resistant coating will be poor, and the reaction of succinic acid and butanediol will not be complete, and the excess succinic acid and butanediol will be free in the graphene corrosion-resistant coating, which will increase the porosity of the graphene corrosion-resistant coating and reduce the adhesion.
[0083] In the embodiment of the present application, the catalyst is used in an amount of 0.05-0.2 of the total mass of succinic acid and butanediol, so as to promote the reaction of succinic acid and butanediol to generate polybutylene succinate faster. If the amount of catalyst exceeds the range, the catalyst cannot play a catalytic role, or the reaction of succinic acid and butanediol is incomplete.
[0084] In the embodiment of the present application, the ratio of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer to tetraethyl orthosilicate is 2-3:1. The reaction sites in the tetraethyl orthosilicate are used to link ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and polybutylene succinate, so as to generate a high molecular material with a larger molecular weight and a more stable structure. If the ratio exceeds the range, the ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer cannot completely react with polybutylene succinate, and the excess ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer or polybutylene succinate is distributed in the graphene anticorrosive coating, which increases the porosity of the graphene anticorrosive coating and reduces the adhesion.
[0085] In the embodiment of the present application, at a specific temperature (the temperature in S4-S6), the activated graphene oxide reacts with sodium methylsilanolate, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and polybutylene succinate to generate a high molecular compound. The activated graphene oxide and nanomaterials play a role of a bridge, and the newly generated chemical bonds connect sodium methylsilanolate, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and polybutylene succinate, so that sodium methylsilanolate, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and polybutylene succinate are polymerized around the graphene oxide and nanomaterials to generate a high molecular material with a larger molecular weight and a more stable structure, rather than simply playing a role of uniform distribution or filling pores. The high molecular compound further reacts with epoxy resin to generate a high-strength reticular structure film, which overcomes the problems of unstable molecular structure, easy aging and many pores of traditional epoxy coatings. If polybutylene succinate does not participate in the reaction, it is a mixture of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, tetraethyl orthosilicate and polybutylene succinate, which has a smaller molecular weight, an unstable structure, is easy to oxidize when exposed to air, is easy to age, and has poor durability.
[0086] Example 5 is that the reaction temperature is out of the specified range, resulting in incomplete reaction of raw materials, larger internal pores, decreased adhesion, and decreased corrosion resistance of the prepared steel structure corrosion-resistant coating. During testing, there are a small amount of bubbles, cracking, peeling, and rusting defects on the surface. In S2, the reaction temperature is 110°C for activating succinic acid and butanediol, which is too low to reach the activation temperature of succinic acid and butanediol, resulting in incomplete activation and affecting the generation of polybutylene succinate in S3. In S4, the reaction temperature is 200°C, which is too low to break the hydrogen bonds of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and tetraethyl orthosilicate, and cannot promote the reaction of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, tetraethyl orthosilicate, and polybutylene succinate. In S5, the reaction temperature is 350°C, which is too high to destroy the structure of ammonium salt, promote the breakage of NH4 - in ammonium salt, and generate ammonia gas, which cannot play a catalytic role.
[0087] Comparative Example 1,
[0088] In S4, the heating temperature is 300°C or 150°C (out of the range of 200-250°C), and the remaining steps are the same as those in Example 2.
[0089] Comparative Example 2,
[0090] In S5, the heating temperature is 180°C (out of the range of 130-140°C), and the remaining steps are the same as those in Example 2.
