Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of special polymer materials, specifically to a thermosetting polyaryletherketone, a composite material, and a method for preparing and applying the thermosetting polyaryletherketone. Background Technology
[0002] Polyaryletherketone (PAGE) is a thermoplastic engineering plastic with excellent comprehensive properties, and it has important applications in key components in special fields such as aerospace and military. However, PAGE has inherent limitations in terms of high-temperature resistance. By cross-linking PAGE molecules to form a three-dimensional network structure, its high-temperature resistance, mechanical properties, dimensional stability, and ablation resistance can be improved, enabling it to meet more demanding service environments.
[0003] In existing technologies, diamine monomers are used as crosslinking agents to react with the carbonyl groups in polyaryletherketones (PAKs) to form imine bonds, thereby achieving crosslinking. The resulting crosslinked PAKs exhibit high thermal stability, as reported in patent application CN112566960A. However, the diamine monomers are difficult to disperse uniformly in the PAK matrix, leading to defects in the crosslinked network formed after curing, and consequently, a stable product cannot be obtained. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the aforementioned shortcomings, this invention provides a thermosetting polyaryletherketone (PAE), a composite material, a method for preparing the PAE, and its applications. The PAE exhibits a stable crosslinking network, effectively yielding a stable product.
[0005] The first aspect of this invention protects a thermosetting polyaryletherketone having a molecular structure as shown in Formula I:
[0006]
[0007] Where m and n are the mole percentages of repeating units, m+n=1, 0.6≤n≤1, 0≤m≤0.4.
[0008] Ar is selected from one of formulas 1-8:
[0009]
[0010] The second aspect of this invention protects a method for preparing thermosetting polyaryletherketones, comprising the following steps:
[0011] 9,9-bis(4-aminophenyl)-2,7-dihydroxyfluorene, the second bisphenol monomer, 4,4-dihalobenzophenone, solvent, catalyst and dehydrating agent were mixed and subjected to a first heating reflux. After the reflux was completed, the dehydrating agent was removed and the temperature was raised to the second heating temperature to obtain the crude product liquid.
[0012] The second bisphenol monomer is selected from one of the following formulas 1'-8':
[0013]
[0014] The crude product liquid was post-treated to obtain thermosetting polyaryletherketone.
[0015] Furthermore, the amount of the catalyst is 1.15-1.5 times that of the 4,4-dihalobenzophenone.
[0016] The molar ratio of 9,9-bis(4-aminophenyl)-2,7-dihydroxyfluorene to the second bisphenol monomer is 3:2-1:0;
[0017] The total number of moles of 9,9-bis(4-aminophenyl)-2,7-dihydroxyfluorene and the second bisphenol monomer is equal to the number of moles of 4,4-dihalobenzophenone.
[0018] Furthermore, the temperature of the first heating is 130-180℃, and the reflux time is 1-3h.
[0019] The second heating temperature is 180-230℃, and the reaction time is 2-5 hours.
[0020] Furthermore, the 4,4-dihalobenzophenone is one or both of 4,4-difluorobenzophenone and 4,4-dichlorobenzophenone.
[0021] The solvent is one or more of sulfolane (TMS), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP).
[0022] The dehydrating agent is toluene or xylene, and the mass of the dehydrating agent is 5%-70% of the mass of the solvent.
[0023] The catalyst is one or more of potassium carbonate, sodium carbonate, and calcium carbonate.
[0024] Furthermore, the post-processing steps are as follows:
[0025] The crude product solution was diluted with N,N-dimethylacetamide, then precipitated in an ethanol-water mixture, pulverized, and boiled with deionized water 5-6 times, each time for 40-90 minutes, and dried to obtain thermosetting polyarylether ketone.
[0026] Furthermore, the mass of the N,N-dimethylacetamide is 0.5-8 times the theoretical mass yield of the obtained thermosetting polyaryletherketone.
[0027] The volume ratio of ethanol to water in the ethanol-water mixture is 4-9:1-6.
[0028] The third aspect of this invention protects the use of thermosetting polyaryletherketones in thermosetting products.
[0029] A fourth aspect of this invention protects a composite material comprising a thermosetting polyaryletherketone, a filler, and a silane coupling agent.
[0030] The thermosetting polyaryletherketone has a mass percentage of 57-99.8%, the filler has a mass percentage of 0-40%, and the silane coupling agent has a mass percentage of 0.2-3%.
[0031] The composite material is made by mixing the thermosetting polyaryletherketone, the filler and the silane coupling agent, first molding at a temperature of 300-380℃ for 1-5 hours, and then post-curing at a temperature of 320-360℃ for 2-48 hours.
[0032] Furthermore, the filler is selected from one or more of chopped glass fiber, chopped carbon fiber, and chopped basalt fiber. The silane coupling agent is KH550.
[0033] Beneficial effects: This invention synthesizes an amino-containing crosslinkable thermosetting polyaryletherketone through nucleophilic condensation reaction. This thermosetting polyaryletherketone does not require the addition of crosslinking agents such as diamine monomers, thus completely avoiding the impact of uneven distribution of crosslinking agents on thermosetting polyaryletherketone products.
[0034] This invention prepares thermosetting polyaryletherketones through an in-situ crosslinking reaction of amino and carbonyl groups, avoiding the defects caused by uneven distribution of crosslinking agents that may exist in the prior art, and improving product stability; in addition, this invention selects a rigid and stable crosslinking structure, which improves the ablation resistance of thermosetting polyaryletherketone products.
[0035] This invention further heats thermosetting polyaryletherketones (PAEs), enabling them to cure in situ through self-crosslinking, thus obtaining the PAE product without the addition of any crosslinking agent. The resulting PAE product exhibits a carbon residue rate of 87% at 600°C and 78% at 800°C in a nitrogen atmosphere.
