Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of intrinsic antibacterial technology, and in particular to a method for preparing an intrinsic antibacterial material. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, hygiene and safety in public places have become particularly important, and the development of protective coatings with antibacterial and bacteriostatic functions is an important means of inhibiting the rapid spread of bacteria and viruses. At present, there are many types of antibacterial products, including inorganic, organic, and natural antibacterial materials. Their addition gives the materials the function of killing molds, fungi, and viruses or inhibiting their growth and reproduction.

[0003] Chinese Patent CN116135907A discloses an intrinsically antibacterial nylon prepared by homopolymerization. The structural formula is as follows: [Structure formula would be inserted here], where R1 is a C1-C10 straight-chain hydrocarbon group; R2 is a furan ring, benzene ring, pyrazine ring, or a C1-C3 straight-chain hydrocarbon group; and n is 50-200. This technical solution achieves broad-spectrum antibacterial properties in nylon materials by designing a Schiff base structure with antibacterial activity in the polyamide material backbone. It also solves problems such as decreased antibacterial performance due to antibacterial agent precipitation and antibacterial agent contamination. The production method is simple, low-cost, and allows for flexible and diverse applications.

[0004] Chinese patent CN116284758A also provides an intrinsic antibacterial nylon, which is prepared by copolymerization reaction. It can obtain nylon material with excellent antibacterial properties and long-term antibacterial stability without adding antibacterial agent to nylon material. It avoids problems such as the precipitation of antibacterial agent during the use of material and can effectively ensure the antibacterial properties and antibacterial time of the formed intrinsic antibacterial nylon material.

[0005] Chinese Patent CN117004056A discloses an antibacterial masterbatch and its preparation method. The preparation method includes: preparing a diol containing polyhexamethylene guanidine hydrochloride: reacting polyhexamethylene guanidine hydrochloride with dihydroxy fatty acids to obtain a diol containing polyhexamethylene guanidine hydrochloride; and preparing the antibacterial masterbatch: adding the polyol, isocyanate, and the diol containing polyhexamethylene guanidine hydrochloride obtained in the above steps into a twin-screw extruder, extruding and granulating to obtain the antibacterial masterbatch. The antibacterial masterbatch obtained by this invention is a high-molecular-weight polyurethane material with intrinsic antibacterial properties prepared using polyhexamethylene guanidine hydrochloride-type polyol as a chain extender. This results in a polyurethane material with excellent antibacterial properties. The antibacterial masterbatch has good compatibility with existing polyurethane matrices, and the prepared TPU antibacterial material does not precipitate, has long-lasting antibacterial ability, and differs from small-molecule quaternary ammonium salts and guanidines in that it is easy to store and has low toxicity.

[0006] However, in the use of common commercially available antibacterial materials, antibacterial agents generally still have compatibility issues with different resin matrices, which leads to easy migration and short-lasting antibacterial effects. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for preparing intrinsic antibacterial materials, which exhibit excellent antibacterial properties against both Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0009] A method for preparing an intrinsic antibacterial material, comprising the following steps:

[0010] M1: By weight, add 0.05-0.5 parts of modified nano ZnO powder to 5-10 parts of cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxylic acid diglycidyl ester, disperse by ultrasonication, and mix evenly;

[0011] M2: Continue to add 1-5 parts of organometallic synergist and 3-7 parts of bisphenol A epoxy resin (epoxy values ​​of 0.44, 0.51, 0.53 and 0.55 respectively). After mixing and stirring, pour into a mold, place in a vacuum oven for gradient heat preservation for a period of time, and then cool to room temperature to obtain the intrinsic antibacterial material.

[0012] In this invention, the ultrasonic dispersion time of M1 is 10-20 min.

[0013] In this invention, the mixing and stirring time of M1 is 10-30 min.

[0014] In this invention, the operation steps of the vacuum oven of M2 are as follows: keep warm at 60-70℃ for 30-50 minutes, keep warm at 80-90℃ for 30-50 minutes, keep warm at 110-120℃ for 20-40 minutes, and keep warm at 140-150℃ for 50-80 minutes.

[0015] The method for preparing the modified nano-ZnO powder in this invention is as follows:

[0016] H1: Weigh 100-120 parts by weight of nano ZnO powder, 5-10 parts by weight of KH560 (γ-glycidyl etheroxypropyltrimethoxysilane), 100-200 parts by weight of ethanol, and 5-10 parts by weight of deionized water. Disperse by ultrasonication for 10-20 min, mix and stir for 10-30 min, and then vacuum dry.

[0017] H2: After cooling to room temperature, grind to obtain modified nano ZnO powder.

[0018] In this invention, the vacuum drying temperature of H1 is 100-120℃, and the time is 1-3h.

[0019] In this invention, the method for synthesizing the organometallic synergist is as follows:

[0020] K1: By weight, add 10-20 parts of copper chloride, 18-36 parts of 4-aminopyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid, and 320-400 parts of N,N-dimethylformamide to a stirred tank and heat and stir to react;

[0021] K2: Add 12-24 parts of 3,4-epoxycyclohexylmethyl 3,4-epoxycyclohexylcarbamate and 1-4 parts of sodium hydroxide to the stirred tank, and heat and stir to react;

[0022] K3: Add 0.01-0.2 parts of allyltributyltin, heat and stir to react; remove N,N-dimethylformamide by vacuum distillation to obtain organometallic synergist.

[0023] In this invention, the reaction temperature of K1 is 30-40℃ and the reaction time is 50-100min.

[0024] In this invention, the reaction temperature of K2 is 40-50℃ and the reaction time is 30-100min.

[0025] In this invention, the reaction temperature of K3 is 70-80℃ and the reaction time is 60-150 min.

[0026] Mechanism of preparation of organometallic synergists:

[0027] Copper chloride reacts with 4-aminopyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid to generate copper 4-aminopyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid; copper 4-aminopyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid undergoes an amino-epoxy addition reaction with 3,4-epoxycyclohexylmethyl 3,4-epoxycyclohexylcarboxylate; copper 4-aminopyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid undergoes an amino-allyl addition reaction with allyltributyltin; thus, an organometallic synergist containing copper carboxylic acid and tributyltin is obtained.

[0028] The method for preparing an intrinsic antibacterial material according to the present invention has the following significant advantages compared with the prior art:

[0029] 1. The organometallic synergist prepared in this invention contains tributyltin, which can alter the electron cloud distribution and chemical bonding characteristics of the resin, making its bond with nano-zinc oxide more stable and robust. Nano-zinc oxide has a large specific surface area and high surface activity, and can interact with various microorganisms, destroying their cell walls or affecting their physiological functions. Copper carboxylate and tributyltin work together at the interface between the resin and nano-zinc oxide, enhancing the chemical bonding and physical adsorption between the two, making the dispersion of nano-zinc oxide in epoxy resin more uniform and stable. The above synergistic effects improve the antibacterial properties of the resin.
