Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of industrial starch technology, specifically relating to a nano-microcapsule organosilicon-coated starch and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Surface sizing involves applying sizing liquid to the surface of paper or paperboard using a sizing machine or by immersing the paper in a sizing agent solution to form a layer of sizing particles. After the sizing agent dries, a liquid-resistant film forms on the paper surface, giving the paper or paperboard a certain surface strength while also providing good water resistance. After surface sizing, a water-resistant film forms on the paper surface, which not only enhances the surface strength of the paper but also improves its water resistance, printability, abrasion resistance, and durability, thus reducing paper linting and dusting during printing. Traditional in-pulp sizing results in significant loss during papermaking, easily leading to increased white water load, paper machine contamination, and decreased paper strength. Currently, the papermaking industry is gradually shifting from in-pulp sizing to surface sizing.

[0003] Natural starch, due to its abundant resources, low cost, and renewable and biodegradable properties, is currently the most widely used surface sizing agent in my country. However, with the rapid development of the modern papermaking industry and the continuous adoption of new processes, equipment, and technologies, the requirements for modified starch used in paper coating and sizing are becoming increasingly stringent. Single-modified starches are insufficient to fully meet these needs. As a result, modified and composite modified starches have emerged, and their application in the papermaking industry has been affirmed.

[0004] Currently, there are many types of surface sizing agents on the market, each with different functions and purposes. They are mainly used to improve the strength of paper or paperboard or enhance printing performance. However, the main function and purpose of surface sizing agents for grey-coated white cardboard is to resist the diffusion and penetration of liquids. The quality of surface sizing agents is closely related to the processing technology and the molecular weight of the polymer. Currently, there are two main categories of surface sizing agents on the market: one category consists of natural products represented by starch, PVA, and CMC; the other category consists of synthetic products represented by styrene-maleic anhydride copolymers, styrene-acrylic acid copolymers, AKD polymers, and polyurethane dispersions. Starch is an important renewable and biodegradable natural resource. Starch molecules have many hydroxyl groups, which can absorb water and swell under certain temperature conditions, resulting in gelatinization and a certain degree of viscosity and adhesion. It has wide applications in industry, and many modified varieties exist. However, its adhesion, water retention, especially its water solubility and resistance to surface diffusion and penetration of liquids, have certain limitations, which restrict its application. To address these shortcomings, methods such as wet oxidative modification of oxidized starch result in unsatisfactory water retention, flowability, and adhesion. Acetate starch, through wet esterification and oxidative modification, introduces non-ionic acetyl groups that are easily hydrolyzed and detached under alkaline conditions, leading to unstable flowability and water retention. Phosphate starch, modified through dry phosphate esterification, introduces anionic phosphate groups, which form anionic waste during paper recycling, negatively impacting the wet end of the paper machine. Existing technology discloses a modified starch, TB-201, a composite modified starch obtained through two chemical modifications. By introducing various active groups into the starch molecule, its gelatinization temperature, rheology, stability, film-forming properties, and adhesion are significantly improved, making it an excellent new material suitable for coating and sizing in modern papermaking. However, the preparation process of this modified starch uses large amounts of strong alkalis and other chemicals, causing significant environmental damage. Another technology utilizes twin-screw extrusion to produce nano-starch for paper coating. This process is simple, generates no wastewater, has high reaction efficiency, and low production costs. The extrusion method for producing coating nano-starch not only plasticizes the starch to enhance its adhesive strength but also gelatinizes it. By adding a cross-linking agent in the later stages of extrusion, the precipitated starch molecules undergo dry cross-linking, forming stable nano-sized starch. This nano-starch is characterized by high solids content, low viscosity, good flowability, strong adhesion, and ease of use. It can replace 30-60% of styrene-butadiene latex, improving paper performance, reducing costs, and being environmentally friendly. While the above technologies have solved the challenges of starch stability, water retention, flowability, and adhesive strength, their temperature resistance and ability to resist surface diffusion and penetration of liquids still have shortcomings. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a nano-microcapsule organosilicon-coated starch with good heat resistance, excellent surface diffusion and penetration ability, and high surface strength for sizing on paper.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0007] A nano-microcapsule organosilicon-coated starch is made from the following components in parts by weight: 50 to 100 parts of composite modified starch and 50 to 80 parts of vinyl acetate microemulsion.

[0008] The components for preparing the composite modified starch are: 80-100 parts corn starch, 40-60 parts water, 2-5 parts oxidant, 2-5 parts reducing agent, 20-40 parts alkali solution, 10-20 parts succinic anhydride, 5-10 parts methylsilicic acid, and 2-5 parts silane coupling agent.

[0009] In a preferred example, the corn starch has a particle size of 30 nm to 100 nm, an ash content of less than 0.5%, and a pH of 6.0 to 7.0.

[0010] In a preferred example, the oxidant is hydrogen peroxide or sodium hypochlorite.

[0011] In a preferred example, the reducing agent is ferrous sulfate or sodium metabisulfite.

[0012] In a preferred example, the alkaline solution is a NaOH solution or a KOH solution, wherein the mass fraction of the NaOH solution is 5% to 10% and the mass fraction of the KOH solution is 5% to 10%.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the silane coupling agent is selected from at least one of γ-(2,3-epoxypropoxy)propyltrimethoxysilane, γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, and tetraethyl orthosilicate.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the preparation process of the vinyl acetate microemulsion is as follows: while stirring and mixing deionized water, vinyl acetate and butyl acrylate, OP-10 and SDS are added and stirred rapidly to form a microemulsion. Then, under a nitrogen atmosphere, the temperature is slowly raised to the decomposition temperature of the initiation system, and then an initiator is added. The reaction is carried out for 30 min to 60 min to obtain a vinyl acetate microemulsion with a particle size distribution of 20 nm to 30 nm and a Zeta potential of -23.0 mV to -25.0 mV.

[0015] The volume ratio of deionized water, vinyl acetate, butyl acrylate, OP-10, and SDS is 200–220: 25–35: 8–12: 0.1–0.3.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment, the volume ratio of the deionized water, vinyl acetate, butyl acrylate, OP-10, and SDS is 180:30:10:0.2.

[0017] Based on a general inventive concept, another object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing organosilicon-coated starch nanocapsules, comprising the following steps:

[0018] (1) First, corn starch and water are mixed to make starch milk, then an oxidant is added to carry out an oxidation reaction. After the oxidation reaction is completed, a reducing agent is added to carry out a reduction reaction. After the reduction reaction is completed, an alkaline solution is added to adjust the pH of the solution to 6.0-7.0. Then, succinic anhydride and methylsilicic acid are slowly added at a dropping rate of 0.1 ml / s-0.5 ml / s to carry out a composite esterification reaction. The reaction is carried out at 60℃-80℃ for 1-2 hours. Then, a silane coupling agent is added. At the same time, the reaction solution is treated with ultrasound. Finally, after centrifugation and washing, the composite modified starch is obtained.

[0019] (2) First, mix vinyl acetate microemulsion and composite modified starch evenly, then polymerize the emulsion at 75℃~85℃ for 1h~2h, then add wall material, disperse quickly, and obtain nano-microcapsule organosilicon coated starch after separation and drying.

[0020] In a preferred example, the wall material is chitosan or cellulose.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present invention adopts the above-mentioned oxidation-reduction, composite esterification, dispersion emulsification polymerization and other processes. The introduction of carboxylic acid groups on the succinyl group in the composite esterification reaction greatly enhances the hydrophilicity of starch. At the same time, the introduction of organosilicon groups improves the temperature resistance of modified starch. In contrast, the molecules of single oxidized coated starch, oxidative acetylated starch and oxidative phosphorylated starch do not have the above-mentioned groups.

[0022] The advantages of the organosilicon-coated starch nanocapsule product prepared by this invention are as follows:

[0023] (1) It has good paste transparency and film-forming properties. When applied to the sizing of paper surfaces, it can make the paper have excellent smoothness performance and greatly improve the paper's printability. It does not shed powder or lint.

[0024] (2) It has very high water retention, reduced sedimentation, high stability, and good compatibility with other coatings; and because succinic anhydride has a certain cross-linking effect on starch, it greatly enhances the starch's tolerance to the environment and greatly strengthens its strength, which has an excellent effect on enhancing the surface strength of coated paper.

[0025] (3) Introducing organosilicon groups as low surface energy materials has good surface diffusion and penetration capabilities, which is beneficial to improving its temperature resistance and compatibility with paper, and reducing environmental harm. Detailed Implementation
