Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to an organosilicon block copolymer, its preparation method, and its application as a solid propellant bonding agent, belonging to the technical fields of polymer synthesis, fine chemicals, and solid propellant applications. Background Technology

[0002] Composite solid propellants are energetic composite polymer materials with polymers as the continuous phase and solid particles as fillers. Their mechanical properties are influenced by many factors, and ensuring effective adhesion between the solid particles and the binder interface is a necessary condition for composite solid propellants to achieve excellent mechanical properties. To improve the bonding strength between the oxidizer and binder interface in solid propellants, bonding agents are often added to the propellant formulation. According to the bonding principle of solid propellants, the bonding agent molecule design must meet three conditions: it must be able to aggregate on the surface of the oxidizer solid particles filling the propellant; it must be able to form a hard and tough outer shell layer on the surface of the oxidizer particles; and it must have sufficient remaining functional groups to form the main chemical bonds, enabling the binder network to chemically bond with the aforementioned hard shell layer.

[0003] Currently, most small-molecule bonding agents used in solid propellants are small-molecule polar compounds effective against ammonium perchlorate (AP), such as aziridines and alkanolamine derivatives. Among them, aziridines (such as tri-(2-methylaziridine)phosphine oxide, code name MAPO) are the most widely used. In addition, a polymeric macromolecular bonding agent (NPBA) was first disclosed in 1990. NPBA is a neutral polymeric bonding agent that is a copolymer of acrylonitrile and hydroxyl acrylate, with nitrile groups (C≡N) and hydroxyl groups (OH) introduced into the macromolecular structure. The inventors previously disclosed a macromolecular bonding agent composed of acrylate copolymers containing dicyano groups. Due to the presence of two nitrile groups on the functional units of the copolymer, it has strong adsorption and achieves excellent bonding effect. However, the surface migration characteristics of this bonding agent still need improvement. How to promote the surface migration of the bonding agent while ensuring compatibility, thereby achieving efficient bonding, has been a long-term goal pursued by energetic materials experts. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention utilizes the coupling of organosilicon segments and polar polymer segments to obtain a block copolymer type bonding agent with high migration characteristics that can improve the high-temperature mechanical properties of solid propellants.

[0005] The technical solution adopted in this invention is: An organosilicon block copolymer has the following chemical structural formula: ; Where X is 4-cyanopentyl; p = 2–50; q = 2–50; m = 4–100; n = 1–10.

[0006] This invention discloses a method for preparing the above-mentioned organosilicon block copolymer, comprising the following steps: reacting a cyano polymer and an isocyanate-based silicone oil to obtain the organosilicon block copolymer.

[0007] In this invention, the reaction of the cyanopolymer and isocyanate-based silicone oil is carried out under the catalysis of an organotin compound, such as dibutyltin dilaurate; the reaction temperature is 50–120°C, and the reaction time is 1–8 hours. Preferably, the mass ratio of the cyanopolymer, isocyanate-based silicone oil, and organotin compound is (100–500):(5–30):(0.005–0.05). More preferably, the mass ratio of the cyanopolymer, isocyanate-based silicone oil, and organotin compound is (150–300):(8–20):(0.01–0.03).

[0008] In this invention, isocyanate-based silicone oil is prepared using cyclosiloxane monomers and isocyanate double-ended caps as raw materials; cyanopolymer is prepared by polymerization using 4,4-azobis(4-cyanopentanol) as an initiator and butyl acrylate and acrylonitrile as raw materials. Preferably, methanesulfonic acid compound is used as a catalyst in the preparation of isocyanate-based silicone oil; the polymerization temperature is below 90°C, and the time is 1–24 hours. Preferably, the polymer reaction is carried out under nitrogen atmosphere, and the polymerization temperature is 85–90°C.

[0009] This invention discloses a composite solid propellant comprising an oxidant and a binder, and further comprising the aforementioned organosilicon block copolymer as a bonding agent.

[0010] This invention discloses the application of the above-mentioned organosilicon block copolymer in solid propellants.

[0011] Specifically, the organosilicon block copolymer is used as a bonding agent in solid propellants. Preferably, the organosilicon block copolymer improves the mechanical properties of the solid propellant.

[0012] The present invention discloses a method for preparing an organosilicon block copolymer, comprising isocyanate dual-end synthesis, ring-opening polymerization to prepare isocyanate-based silicone oil, free radical polymerization to prepare cyano polymer, and coupling copolymerization reaction to obtain the organosilicon block copolymer. Specifically, isocyanate dual-ends are prepared using amino dual-ends and solid phosgene as raw materials; isocyanate silicone oil is prepared using cyclosiloxane monomers and isocyanate dual-ends as raw materials; cyano polymer is prepared by polymerizing butyl acrylate and acrylonitrile with 4,4-azobis(4-cyanopentanol); and organosilicon block copolymer is prepared by copolymerization reaction of isocyanate silicone oil and cyano polymer.

[0013] The significant advantages of this invention compared to the prior art are: (a) With the bonding agent polymer side group containing amide groups and organosilicon precursors that can adsorb with oxidants, the block copolymer has excellent surface migration properties and is very easy to wet and spread into a film on the surface of oxidant solid particles in the composite solid propellant when in contact with the surface of the particles.

[0014] (b) The introduction of active groups such as hydroxyl groups into the molecular structure of block copolymer bonding agents can react with isocyanate-based curing agents in propellant formulations. Combined with the polymer's own coating of oxidant particles, a "toughening coating layer" can be formed on the surface of solid oxidant particles. This is the principle behind its bonding properties and prevention of propellant grain "dewetting".

[0015] (c) Organic block copolymer bonding agents have excellent high and low temperature characteristics, that is, their mechanical properties change slowly with temperature. They will not become sticky at high temperatures or brittle at low temperatures. When introduced into the molecular structure of block copolymer bonding agents, they can form a "toughening" layer on the surface of the oxidant in solid propellants. This can combine the multi-point physical adsorption with the strong flexibility of the organosilicon molecular chain, thereby improving the high temperature mechanical properties of composite solid propellants.

After purging with nitrogen, the mixture was heated to 70 °C, and an ethyl acetate solution of ACP was added dropwise. The dropping rate was controlled to prevent excessive heating (the reaction is exothermic), and the addition was completed over 40 minutes, with the reaction temperature not exceeding 90 °C. After the addition was complete, the reaction was maintained at this temperature for 5 hours.

[0042] The solvent was removed from the reaction solution under reduced pressure at 50°C, and then the temperature was raised to 80°C to remove unreacted monomers under reduced pressure, yielding 212g of hydroxyl-terminated carbon chain cyano polymer.

[0045] Comparative Example 1 (1) Prepare cyano polymers according to the same process as in Example 1.

[0046] (2) Chain extension reaction A 250mL three-necked flask was heated in an oil bath with electromagnetic stirring and equipped with a thermometer.

Then, 0.02g of dibutyltin dilaurate and 12.9g of isoflurane diisocyanate were added. The reaction was maintained at this temperature for 3 hours, then cooled to 50–60℃ and stirred for 1.5h. After cooling, 206.1g of the product was obtained. 1.0g of the product was dissolved in 99.0g of toluene to prepare a 1% (w / w) toluene solution. The surface tension of the solution was measured to be 38.9 mN / m.

[0047] Example 3: Application of bonding agents in composite solid propellant formulations The prepared organosilicon block copolymer was added as a bonding agent to the formulation of a hydroxyl-butadiene tetra-component composite solid propellant. The tetra-component propellant formulation contained two oxidants: ammonium perchlorate (AP) and nitramine oxidant (RDX). The different propellant compositions were: 15g hydroxyl-butadiene rubber, 0.3g cattocin (burning rate catalyst), 65g ammonium perchlorate, 19g nitramine oxidant (RDX), and 0.1g of the prepared bonding agent. After mixing in a kneader for 1 hour, 3g of isoflurane diisocyanate (curing agent) was added, and mixing continued for 30 minutes. The mixture was then poured in a conventional manner and cured at 60°C for 7 days.

[0048] The mechanical properties of the drug column obtained by the bonding agent in Example 1 were tested. The tensile strength (σ) at room temperature (23℃) and high temperature (70℃) was 915kPa and 687kPa, respectively, and the elongation at break at room temperature and high temperature was 70.1% and 56.4%, respectively, which are significantly better than existing macromolecular bonding agents. Figure 4 The measured contents of C, O, N, and Si on the surface of the oxidant particles were 71.05%, 13.96%, 9.74%, and 3.57%, respectively. The Si content was significantly higher than the average silicon content of the block copolymer bonding agent itself. This indicates that the organosilicon block copolymer of this invention exhibits excellent migration capabilities when applied to solid propellant bonding.

[0049] In Example 2, the mechanical properties of the drug column obtained by the bonding agent were tested. The tensile strength (σ) at room temperature and high temperature (70°C) was 1110 kPa and 801 kPa, respectively, and the elongation at break at room temperature and high temperature was 78.1% and 61.4%, respectively.

[0050] The mechanical properties of the drug column obtained by the comparative one-bonding agent were tested. The tensile strength (σ) at room temperature and high temperature (70℃) was 533kPa and 387kPa, respectively, and the elongation at break at room temperature and high temperature was 27.2% and 30.9%, respectively.

[0051] Comparison Example A hydroxyl-butadiene (HbA1c) tetrone composite solid propellant column was prepared without adding a bonding agent: 15g HbA1c; 0.3g cattoxin (burning rate catalyst); 65g ammonium perchlorate; and 19.1g RDX (nitramine oxidant). The mixture was kneaded for 1 hour, then 3g isoflurane diisocyanate (curing agent) was added, and mixing continued for 30 minutes. The column was then cast using standard methods and cured at 60℃ for 7 days. The mechanical properties of the resulting column were tested. The tensile strength (σ) at room temperature (23℃) and high temperature (70℃) was 428kPa and 330kPa, respectively, and the elongation at break at room temperature and high temperature was 18.6% and 11.2%, respectively.

[0052] According to reports, when using the traditional small-molecule bonding agent tris(aziridine)phosphine oxide (MAPO) to bond hydroxyl propellants, their mechanical strength at room temperature is generally between 400 kPa and 520 kPa, and their mechanical strength at high temperature is generally between 250 kPa and 350 kPa. The bonding agent provided by this invention can provide higher mechanical strength, especially high-temperature mechanical strength, and significantly improved elongation at break.

[0053] When the bonding agent of this invention is applied to a composite propellant system filled with ammonium perchlorate (AP) and nitramine oxidizer, it exhibits the property of migrating to the surface of oxidizer particles in the propellant slurry, forming an interfacial film between the oxidizer and the binder. The bonding agent of this invention neither becomes sticky at high temperatures nor brittle at low temperatures. Introducing it into the molecular structure of a block copolymer bonding agent allows it to form a "toughening" layer on the oxidizer surface in the solid propellant, organically combining multi-point physical adsorption with the strong flexibility of the organosilicon molecular chain. In particular, the block copolymer of this invention has the inherent characteristic that its mechanical properties are minimally affected by temperature changes. Therefore, even under high-temperature conditions, the "toughening" layer of the bonded solid propellant grain is not easily damaged or "dehydrated," thus the bonding agent of this invention is highly effective in improving the high-temperature mechanical properties of composite solid propellants.
