Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fireproof coatings, and specifically to an environment-friendly water-based intumescent fireproof coating and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Fireproof coatings are a special functional coating that can effectively prevent or delay the spread of fire. Compared with other fire protection materials, fireproof coatings have the advantages of easy construction, low cost, good heat insulation, etc., and are widely used in many places such as steel structure buildings, cable protection, highway tunnels, and airports. According to different base materials, fireproof coatings can be divided into inorganic fireproof coatings and organic fireproof coatings. Inorganic fireproof coatings contain inorganic heat-resistant flame retardant fillers and mainly rely on the non-combustibility of the material itself for fire protection. They do not expand and foam. Due to their low density and small overall thermal conductivity of the material, they have excellent fire resistance. However, inorganic fireproof coatings usually need to be applied to more than 20 - 30 mm. The coating is rough in appearance due to the inclusion of inorganic mineral materials, has poor decorative properties, and is prone to embrittlement, cracking, and peeling. Conventional organic fireproof coatings include oil-based intumescent fireproof coatings and water-based intumescent fireproof coatings. Organic fireproof coatings can expand and foam to form a heat-insulating fireproof layer, and have the advantages of fine particle size, thin coating, convenient construction, and good decorative properties. Among them, oil-based intumescent fireproof coatings are widely used because of their excellent fire resistance and good physical and chemical properties, and can usually meet the fire resistance limit of less than 2.5 h. However, its diluent is an organic solvent with a high VOC content, and there are significant problems of environmental pollution and harm to human health during production and construction. Therefore, with the increasingly strict environmental protection regulations, it will also be replaced by water-based products in the future. Although there are already water-based intumescent fireproof coatings in the market, there are still many problems such as insufficient fire resistance, large smoke generation of the coating, poor weather resistance, and poor storage stability.

The prepared Salen - based polyphosphazene composite magnesium - aluminum layered double hydroxide is a novel halogen - free flame retardant with a large surface area and a layered structure, and has high compatibility with polymers. When applied to fire - retardant coatings, it carbonizes into a carbon - rich skeleton at high temperature, and this skeleton structure has the advantages of chemical inertness, non - toxicity and good stability, thus making the product have excellent durability, weather resistance and chemical resistance, solving the problems of poor fire - resistance and weather resistance of the waterborne intumescent fire - retardant coating; and the high char residue can replace the char - forming agent, avoiding the problem of easy migration and precipitation of conventional char - forming agents (such as pentaerythritol), and significantly reducing the release amount of toxic flue gas generated when the coating is heated, solving the problem of large flue gas release amount of traditional organic fire - retardant coatings when heated.

[0043] 3. The present invention prepares refractory fibers into a gel state, which not only ensures the reinforcement and fire - resistance of the refractory fibers, but also prevents the fibers from being sheared and damaged. At the same time, in the form of a gel, it provides sediment - proof and water - retention properties for the system. At a high pigment volume concentration, the product has good storage stability, water resistance and freeze - thaw resistance. The product can be stored at room temperature for 12 months without stratification or precipitation, and the coating has good adhesion, and there are no cracks or peeling phenomena after thorough drying.

[0119] Comparative Example 1

[0120] An aqueous intumescent fireproof coating, whose composition is 20% polyvinyl acetate emulsion, 9% melamine, 22% ammonium polyphosphate, 8% pentaerythritol, 4% aluminosilicate fiber, 16% titanium dioxide, 0.5% dispersant, 0.4% defoamer, 0.1% preservative, and the balance is distilled water.

[0121] Comparative Example 2

[0122] An aqueous intumescent fireproof coating, whose composition is 25% styrene-acrylic emulsion, 12% melamine, 23% ammonium polyphosphate, 12% pentaerythritol, 8% titanium dioxide, 0.4% dispersant, 0.5% defoamer, 0.1% preservative, 0.2% thickener, and the balance is distilled water.

[0123] Test Example 2 Coating Basic Performance Test

[0124] The basic performance of the fireproof coatings of Examples 5 - 7 and Comparative Examples 1 - 2 was tested, and the results are shown in the following table.

[0125]

[0126] As can be seen from the above table, the fireproof coatings provided in Examples 5 - 7 have excellent basic physical and chemical properties, and the initial drying crack resistance is better than that of Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2. At the same time, they have excellent storage stability. The viscosity change of the coating during 12 months of storage is small, and there is no delamination, precipitation, and hard sediment when the can is opened. While in Comparative Example 1, delamination occurred after 6 months of storage, and there was hard sediment, so the coating could not be used; in Comparative Example 2, delamination occurred after 8 months of storage, and there was more soft sediment, the measured viscosity increased significantly, and the construction performance was poor. The results show that the basic performance of the environmentally friendly aqueous intumescent fireproof coating developed by the present invention is excellent, and the storage stability of the fireproof coating has been greatly improved compared with the prior art.

[0127] Test Example 3 Fire Resistance Test

[0128] The fire resistance of the fireproof coatings of Examples 5 - 7 and Comparative Examples 1 - 2 was tested, and the results are shown in the following table.

[0129]

[0130]

[0131] As can be seen from the above table, for the fireproof coatings provided in Examples 5 to 7, the char layer is continuous, dense, hard and strong, with a high degree of expansion. Therefore, it has a relatively high fire resistance time. In Comparative Example 1, the char layer has large holes, is soft and easy to fall off, and has insufficient fire resistance. In Comparative Example 2, although the char layer is hard, it is loose and porous, and the expansion ratio is insufficient, resulting in insufficient fire resistance. This result shows that the Sa len-based polyphosphazene composite magnesium-aluminum layered double hydroxide synergistic flame retardant has a good flame retardant effect. When used in combination with a foaming agent and a dehydrating agent, it self-forms a flame retardant synergistic system. Without the need to add a charring agent, it further reduces the addition amounts of the foaming agent and the dehydrating agent, improves the flame retardant and fire resistance performance of the waterborne intumescent fireproof coating. When encountering fire, it expands and foams to form a continuous, uniform and dense expanded char layer, significantly improving the fire resistance performance of the fireproof coating compared with the prior art.

[0132] Test Example 4 Flame Retardant and Smoke Suppressant Performance Test

[0133] The flame retardant and smoke suppressant performance of the fireproof coatings of Examples 5-7 and Comparative Examples 1-2 was tested, and the results are shown in the following table.

[0134]

[0135] According to the ISO 5660 standard, a cone calorimeter was used to test the smoke suppressant performance of the fireproof coating. The specific test results are shown in the above table, and the test results were compared with the fireproof coatings of Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2. The results show that for the fireproof coating of the present invention, the total heat release (THR) has decreased significantly compared with Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2, and the flame retardant performance has been significantly improved. The average smoke production rate and the average total smoke production of Examples 5, 6, and 7 are 0.014 m 2 / S and 0.67 m 2 / m 2 , which are decreased by 26.3% and 58.6% respectively compared with Comparative Example 1, and decreased by 30% and 59.1% respectively compared with Comparative Example 2. The test results show that the fireproof coating of the present invention has been significantly improved in terms of flame retardant performance and smoke suppressant performance compared with the prior art.

[0136] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
