Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of polymer materials and relates to a preparation method and application of a photothermal responsive self-repairing epoxy resin anti-corrosion coating containing double-chamber microcapsules. Background Art

[0002] Organic coatings are considered to be an effective and low-cost strategy for preventing metal corrosion. Epoxy resins have important applications in metal anti-corrosion coatings due to their excellent wear resistance, adhesion strength, and chemical stability. However, when epoxy coatings are mechanically damaged or damaged by the environment, corrosive substances can easily reach the metal substrate through microcracks and gradually cause corrosion, thereby reducing the anti-corrosion effect of the coating. Therefore, self-healing coatings that can repair themselves or help microcracks heal with slight external intervention have attracted widespread attention. They have high application prospects in improving anti-corrosion performance and extending the service life of coatings, and are currently a hot topic of research at home and abroad. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a preparation method and application of a photothermal responsive self-healing epoxy resin coating. When microcracks caused by mechanical damage or corrosion occur, the curing agent and the healing agent flow out of the double-chamber microcapsule to react and fill the cracks, thereby achieving the purpose of self-healing. At the same time, because the emulsifier in the microcapsule preparation process has photothermal responsiveness, the coating can accelerate the healing of microcracks under the irradiation of 808nm near-infrared light, thereby preventing the steel plate under the coating from corrosion in salt water.

[0004] The preparation method of the epoxy self-repairing coating of the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0005] Step 1: preparing furfurylamine-modified polyacrylic acid: free radical copolymerizing acrylic acid monomer in the presence of azobisisobutyronitrile as an initiator to obtain polyacrylic acid, and then grafting with furfurylamine monomer to obtain furfurylamine-modified polyacrylic acid;

[0006] Step 2: Prepare a photothermal responsive microcapsule curing agent: dissolve the polymer prepared in step 1 as the shell material of the microcapsule in the oil phase, mix the curing agent and the photosensitizer evenly in water, mix the aqueous phase and the oil phase and emulsify them at high speed for 3 minutes to form a stable Pickering emulsion, and continuously stir the emulsion at 60°C for a certain time to prepare the microcapsule curing agent.

[0007] Step 3. Preparation of photothermal responsive dual-chamber microcapsules: The polymer prepared in step 1 is used as the shell material of the microcapsules and the healing agent is dissolved in the oil phase, the microcapsule curing agent prepared in step 2 and the photosensitizer are mixed evenly in water, the aqueous phase and the oil phase are mixed and emulsified at high speed for 3 minutes to form a stable Pickering emulsion, and the emulsion is continuously stirred and reacted at 60°C for a certain time to prepare dual-chamber microcapsules.

[0008] Step 4. Prepare epoxy self-healing coating containing dual-chamber microcapsules: add the photothermal responsive dual-chamber microcapsules prepared in step 3 to bisphenol A epoxy resin containing diethylenetriamine curing agent and allyl glycidyl ether diluent, mix well and prepare epoxy self-healing coating.

[0009] Furthermore, the furfurylamine monomer described in step 1 includes at least one of furfurylamine, 1-furan-2-ethylamine, 2-(5-methyl-2-furyl)ethylamine, and 3-(2-furyl)-1-propylamine; the amount of acrylic acid monomer used is 4 to 6 g, and the amount of furfurylamine monomer used is 0.5 to 2 g.

[0010] Furthermore, in step 2, the amount of the emulsifier is 60 to 150 mg, and the type is one of carbon quantum dots, carbon nanotubes or graphene oxide; the type of the curing agent is one of amine curing agents such as diethylenetriamine, triethylenetetramine, tetraethylenepentamine, hexamethylenediamine, and m-phenylenediamine; the solvent of the oil phase is one of chloroform, dichloromethane, toluene, and N,N-dimethylformamide; the volume ratio of the water phase to the oil phase is: 1:2 to 1:5; the mass ratio of the curing agent to the shell material is 1:0.8 to 1:1.5, the reaction time is 3 to 5 hours, and the high-speed emulsification rate is 3000 to 7000 rpm.

[0011] Furthermore, in step three, the amount of the emulsifier is 20 to 100 mg, and the type is one of carbon quantum dots, carbon nanotubes or graphene oxide; the solvent of the oil phase is one of chloroform, dichloromethane, toluene, and N,N-dimethylformamide; the healing agent is one of epoxy resin, isophorone diisocyanate, toluene diisocyanate, and diphenylmethane diisocyanate; the amount of the microcapsule curing agent is 20 to 120 mg, the water-oil volume ratio is 1:2 to 1:5, the mass ratio of the healing agent to the shell material is 0.6:1 to 1:1, the reaction time is 3 to 5 hours, and the high-speed emulsification rate is 3000 to 7000 rpm.

[0012] Furthermore, in step 4, the coating composition is: the mass ratio of epoxy resin, curing agent, diluent, and double-chamber microcapsule is 1:0.1:0.15:0.01-0.04.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0014] Encapsulating the curing agent and the healing agent in one microcapsule can avoid the incomplete healing of cracks caused by the uneven dispersion of traditional double microcapsules; during the preparation of the microcapsules, the emulsifier also acts as a photosensitizer to react with the furfurylamine-modified polyacrylic acid shell material, making the microcapsules photothermal responsive. After being incorporated into the epoxy resin, the microcracks can be quickly healed in a short period of time under near-infrared light, realizing the self-repair function of the coating, which helps to improve the long-term service performance of the coating and has broad application prospects.

[0078] Table 1 Microcapsule core material content and corrosion resistance test results of epoxy coatings in various examples and comparative examples

[0079]

[0080] Combined with the data in Table 1 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 It can be seen that when a certain amount of dual-chamber microcapsules are added to the epoxy resin, the coating can self-heal when cracks occur, thereby preventing the occurrence of corrosion, and the measured resistance value is relatively large; at the same time, dual-chamber microcapsules with a higher core content have better healing efficiency. Compared with Example 1, the epoxy resin coating without the addition of dual-chamber microcapsules has severe corrosion of the metal material at the scratches, and the coating will peel off if soaked in salt water for a long time. In addition, in Example 2, when there is no near-infrared light, the healing rate of the epoxy resin coating incorporated with the dual-chamber microcapsules is reduced, and corrosion will also occur at the scratches if soaked in salt water for a long time. The dual-chamber microcapsules of the present invention can be widely used in epoxy coatings of various thicknesses to achieve the self-healing and metal anti-corrosion properties of the coating and extend the service life of the coating.
