Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of railway equipment maintenance technology, specifically to an anti-corrosion and cleaning nano-coating and its construction method. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the commonly used anti-corrosion material in anti-corrosion construction projects is various colors of alkyd enamel paint, generally using a primer-topcoat combination. Its main components are 30%~60% alkyd resin, 10%~25% pigment, 0%~25% filler, 1%~8% additives, and 30%~55% solvent. Preparation method: Under high-speed mixing, the raw materials (excluding the drier and anti-skinning agent in the additives) are added to containers according to the specified proportions. After stirring evenly, the mixture is ground to the standard fineness using a grinder. Once qualified, the paint viscosity is adjusted to the standard, and then the drier and anti-skinning agent are added. After inspection and approval, it is packaged. During coating application, a primer-topcoat combination method is generally used on-site, employing a brush application with a cross-hatching technique. There are no requirements for coating thickness, but the appearance quality is specified, and the anti-corrosion life is ≥1 year.

[0003] The railway transportation industry is characterized by the continuity of train operations, the wide geographical distribution of track lines, and the complex climatic environments of the areas traversed. Corrosion protection, maintenance, and repair of related equipment and facilities along the lines can only be carried out through emergency repairs during train intervals (also known as maintenance windows).

[0004] Existing anti-corrosion coatings have the following problems when used for railway equipment maintenance:

[0005] (1) The coating has low hardness (≤HB) and poor stain resistance. It is not good for outdoor use and will lose its gloss and powder after one year and rust after two years, requiring rework. The equipment is made of cast iron, non-ferrous metals and non-metals, so there is a phenomenon of coating peeling.

[0006] (2) The coating dries slowly. On the one hand, it cannot meet the characteristics of the "maintenance window" of railway equipment. On the other hand, the speeding trains cause sand and dust to fly along the line, which will cause sand and dust particles to adhere to the coating surface, reducing the appearance quality and protective performance of the coating.

[0007] In addition, the electrical equipment distributed along the railway line is designed to have a service life of 20 years. If the average anti-corrosion cycle is two years, the anti-corrosion frequency during the equipment's service life needs to be 8 times, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Summary of the Invention

[0008] This invention proposes an anti-corrosion and cleaning nano-coating and its construction method, which solves the problems of low hardness, easy peeling and poor anti-corrosion performance of anti-corrosion coatings in related technologies.

[0009] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0010] This invention proposes an anti-corrosion and cleaning-protecting nano-coating, comprising a bottom layer, an intermediate layer, and a top layer arranged sequentially from bottom to top.

[0011] The raw materials of the bottom layer include component A and component B;

[0012] Component A comprises epoxy resin, toughening agent, pigment, chelating agent, thixotropic agent, and a first diluent, wherein the mass of the first diluent is ≤ 18% of the mass of component A; Component B comprises phenolic amine resin, underlayer drying agent, functionality modifier, and a second diluent, wherein the mass of the second diluent accounts for 30% to 45% of the mass of component B.

[0013] The raw materials for the intermediate layer include component C and component D;

[0014] Component C comprises hydroxyl acrylic resin, anti-aging agent, pigment, additives, thixotropic agent, and a third diluent, wherein the mass of the third diluent is ≤25% of the mass of component C; Component D comprises hexamethylene diisocyanate, intermediate layer drier, and a fourth diluent, wherein the mass of the fourth diluent accounts for 30%~45% of the mass of component D.

[0015] The raw materials for the surface layer include component E and component F;

[0016] The E component includes hydroxyl acrylic resin, anti-aging agent, pigment, additive, surfactant, microcrystalline wax and fifth diluent, wherein the mass of the fifth diluent accounts for 20% to 30% of the mass of the E component; the F component includes hexamethylene diisocyanate, surface drying agent and sixth diluent, wherein the mass of the sixth diluent accounts for 35% to 45% of the mass of the F component.

[0017] In this invention, thixotropic agents are added to the raw materials of the base layer, which greatly increases the thickness of a single spray application. This prevents sagging when the base layer thickness is ≤200μm, thus solving the problem that in the prior art, when anti-corrosion coatings are applied in a single layer with a thickness ≥50μm to adapt to the characteristics of railway equipment maintenance "maintenance windows," sagging easily leads to increased coating defects and reduced coating anti-corrosion life.

[0018] In this invention, a chelating agent is added to the bottom layer of raw materials. The chelating agent can chelate with metal ions on the surface of the equipment, thereby improving the adhesion to the equipment surface. The chelating agent can be any chelating agent known in the art, such as zinc salt chelating agents (including zinc ethylenediaminetetraacetate, zinc phosphate, tetrabasic zinc chromate, etc.), organic acid chelating agents (including citric acid, oxalic acid, tartaric acid, malic acid, etc.), amine chelating agents (including triethanolamine, triethylenetetramine, etc.), and guanidine chelating agents (e.g., diphenylguanidine chromate). Preferably, it is a composite chelating agent composed of tetrabasic zinc chromate and diphenylguanidine chromate in a mass ratio of 1~9:9~1.

[0019] When a composite chelating agent consisting of zinc salt chelating agent and guanidine chelating agent is selected as the chelating agent, the adhesion to the equipment surface can be further improved.

[0020] As a further technical solution, the mass ratio of component A to component B is 8:1, the mass ratio of component C to component D is 8:1, and the mass ratio of component E to component F is 3:1.

[0021] In this invention, the toughening agent has good toughness and can play a toughening role on epoxy resin. The toughening agent can be any toughening agent known in the art, such as HK-10, AS-800, ZG-8013, ZG-8020, etc., with ZG-8020 being preferred.

[0022] When ZG-8020 is selected as the toughening agent, the toughness of the coating can be further improved.

[0023] As a further technical solution, component A includes the following raw materials in parts by weight: 30-42 parts epoxy resin, 5-12 parts toughening agent, 25-35 parts pigment, 8-15 parts chelating agent, 4-8 parts thixotropic agent, and 1-18 parts first diluent.

[0024] The B component comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 45-60 parts of phenolic amine resin, 2-5 parts of bottom drying agent, 0-8 parts of functionality regulator, and 30-45 parts of second diluent.

[0025] The C component comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 45-55 parts of hydroxy acrylic resin, 5-8 parts of anti-aging agent, 15-25 parts of pigment, 2-6 parts of additives, 2-3 parts of thixotropic agent, and 1-25 parts of third diluent.

[0026] The D component comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 45-60 parts of hexamethylene diisocyanate, 2-10 parts of intermediate layer drying agent, and 30-45 parts of fourth diluent;

[0027] The E component comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 45-60 parts of hydroxy acrylic resin, 5-8 parts of anti-aging agent, 0-5 parts of pigment, 2-3 parts of additives, 6-10 parts of surfactant, 2-5 parts of microcrystalline wax, and 20-30 parts of fifth diluent.

[0028] The F component comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 50-60 parts of hexamethylene diisocyanate, 2-5 parts of surface drying agent, and 35-45 parts of sixth diluent.

[0029] In this invention, the addition of a surfactant to the surface layer improves the surface tension of the coating, allowing dust on the coating surface to be washed away by rain, thus giving the coating good self-cleaning properties. The surfactant can be any surfactant known in the art, such as alkyl glycosides, polyether-modified silicone oils, or organosilicon surfactants (e.g., BYK-346).

[0030] In this invention, the addition of a functionality modifier to the surface layer can optimize the crosslinking density, curing speed, and hardness of the epoxy resin. The functionality modifier can be any known functionality modifier in the art, such as methyl methacrylate, dimethylamine, diethylenetriamine, dimethyldiethanolamine, triethylenetetramine, etc., with triethylenetetramine being preferred.

[0031] As a further technical solution, the microcrystalline wax is a microcapsule-encapsulated modified microcrystalline wax, wherein the wall material of the microcapsule-encapsulated modified microcrystalline wax is polyacrylonitrile, and the mass ratio of the raw material polyacrylonitrile to the microcrystalline wax is 1:10~20.

[0032] In this invention, modified microcrystalline wax is encapsulated in microcapsules, which slowly releases the wax to the coating surface, thereby achieving long-lasting self-cleaning of the coating and further improving the service life of the anti-corrosion coating. Using polyacrylonitrile as the wall material, it also works synergistically with the hydroxyl acrylic resin in the surface layer to further improve the aging resistance and acid and alkali resistance of the anti-corrosion coating.

[0033] As a further technical solution, the preparation method of the microcapsule-encapsulated modified microcrystalline wax is as follows: dispersing microcrystalline wax in vegetable oil containing glyceryl stearate to obtain a core material solution, dissolving polyacrylonitrile in DMF to obtain a wall material solution, adding the core material solution to the wall material solution, ultrasonically dispersing, and drying to allow DMF to evaporate, thereby obtaining microcapsule-encapsulated modified microcrystalline wax.

[0034] As a further technical solution, the first diluent and the second diluent are each independently composed of the following components by weight percentage:

[0035] Toluene 50%~70%, butanol 15%~30%, ethylene glycol butyl ether 10%~20%;

[0036] The third, fourth, fifth, and sixth diluents each independently consist of the following components by weight percentage: xylene 40%~60%, anhydrous butyl acetate 30%~40%, and cyclohexanone 0~30%.

[0037] In this invention, by changing the diluent in different coatings and utilizing the different evaporation rates of the diluent in different coatings, a "wet-on-wet" coating process is achieved during construction. This significantly improves construction efficiency while ensuring quality standards are met, and also further enhances aging resistance.

[0038] In this invention, epoxy resin is used as the base material, which has good adhesion to the equipment surface and high impact strength. The epoxy resin selected is a bisphenol A type epoxy resin, such as epoxy resin E44 and epoxy resin E51.

[0039] As a further technical solution, the epoxy resin includes epoxy resin E44 and epoxy resin E51 in a mass ratio of 1:1 to 5.

[0040] In this invention, epoxy resin E44 and epoxy resin E51 are compounded in a mass ratio of 1:1 to 5, which further improves the adhesion between the substrate and the equipment surface and the impact strength of the coating.

[0041] As a further technical solution, the preparation method of component A includes the following steps:

[0042] A1. Mix the thixotropic agent with 25%~35% by mass of the first diluent, stir well and activate to obtain the thixotropic agent prepolymer;

[0043] A2. After mixing epoxy resin and toughening agent, add pigment, chelating agent, additives and the remaining mass of first diluent, mix evenly to obtain a mixture.

[0045] As a further technical solution, the preparation method of component A includes the following steps:

[0046] A1. Mix the thixotropic agent with 25%~35% by mass of the first diluent and stir at 800~1000 rpm and 70~90℃ for 0.5~1 h to activate it and obtain the thixotropic agent prepolymer;

[0047] A2. After mixing epoxy resin and toughening agent, add pigment, chelating agent, additives and the remaining mass of first diluent, mix at 1500~2500 rpm for 0.5~1h until uniformly mixed to obtain a mixture, and grind to a fineness ≤50μm;

[0048] A3. Add the thixotropic agent prepolymer to the mixture at 1500 rpm, increase the speed to 2500 rpm and mix for 0.5~1h until the mixture is uniform to obtain component A.

[0049] As a further technical solution, the preparation method of component C includes the following steps:

[0050] C1. Add pigments, additives, anti-aging agents, thixotropic agents and 25%~35% by mass of a third diluent to hydroxyl acrylic resin and mix evenly to obtain a preliminary mixture;

[0051] C2. Add the remaining mass of the third diluent to the initial mixture, mix well, and obtain component C.

[0052] As a further technical solution, the preparation method of component C includes the following steps:

[0053] C1. Add pigments, additives, anti-aging agents, thixotropic agents and 25%~35% by mass of a third diluent to hydroxyl acrylic resin and mix them evenly at 1500~2500 rpm for 0.5~1h to obtain a preliminary mixture, and grind it to a fineness ≤20μm.

[0054] C2. At 1500 rpm, add the remaining mass of the third diluent to the initial mixture, increase the speed to 2500 rpm and mix for 0.5~1h until the mixture is uniform to obtain component C.

[0055] As a further technical solution, the preparation method of component E includes the following steps:

[0056] E1. Mix the surfactant and the fifth diluent at a mass ratio of 1:1 to obtain the first mixture;

[0057] E2. Add pigments, additives, anti-aging agents, thixotropic agents and 25%~35% by mass of the fifth diluent to the hydroxyl acrylic resin and mix evenly to obtain the second mixture;

[0058] E3. Add the first mixture and microcrystalline wax to the second mixture, mix evenly, and obtain the third mixture;

[0059] E4. Add the remaining mass of the fifth diluent to the third mixture, mix well, and obtain component E.

[0060] As a further technical solution, the preparation method of component E includes the following steps:

[0061] E1. Mix the surfactant and the fifth diluent at a mass ratio of 1:1 to obtain the first mixture;

[0062] E2. Add pigments, additives, anti-aging agents, thixotropic agents and 25%~35% by mass of the fifth diluent to the hydroxyl acrylic resin, and mix at 1000 rpm for 0.5~1 h until the mixture is uniform to obtain the second mixture;

[0063] E3. Add the first mixture and microcrystalline wax to the second mixture, and disperse and mix at 1500~2000 rpm for 0.5~1h until the fineness is ≤20μm to obtain the third mixture;

[0064] E4. Add the remaining mass of the fifth diluent to the third mixture, mix well, and obtain component E.

[0065] This invention also proposes a method for applying the aforementioned anti-corrosion and cleaning-protecting nano-coating, comprising the following steps:

[0066] S1. Mix and stir components A and B to obtain the base coat. Apply one coat of the base coat to the surface of the equipment using a cross-spraying method.

[0067] S2. Mix and stir components C and D to obtain an intermediate layer coating. Apply the intermediate layer coating to the surface of the base layer coating using a cross-spraying method.

[0068] S3. After mixing and stirring components E and F, a topcoat is obtained. The topcoat is then sprayed onto the surface of the intermediate coating using a cross-spraying method to obtain an anti-corrosion and cleaning nano-coating.

[0069] In this invention, the base coat, intermediate coat, and top coat are all applied using wet-on-wet spraying, which is suitable for the "maintenance windows" of railway equipment and ensures that the construction quality meets the standards. The cross-hatching method refers to applying the coatings sequentially in one direction first, and then applying a wet-on-wet coat in an approximately perpendicular direction. The use of the cross-hatching method for the base coat, intermediate coat, and top coat achieves uniform coating thickness and minimizes surface defects.

[0070] As a further technical solution, based on wet film thickness, the coating thickness of the bottom layer is 120~180μm, the coating thickness of the intermediate layer is 80~100μm, and the coating thickness of the top layer is 30~50μm.

[0071] The working principle and beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0072] In this invention, the anti-corrosion and cleaning nano-coating adopts a composite coating form, including a base layer, an intermediate layer, and a top layer. The base layer uses epoxy resin as a base material, which improves the impact strength of the coating. The intermediate layer and the top layer both use hydroxyl acrylic resin as a base material, which not only improves the weather resistance of the coating, but also, in combination with the epoxy resin of the base layer, further improves the impact strength and anti-corrosion performance of the coating. This makes the resulting coating less prone to peeling and has an anti-corrosion life of 5-8 years. By limiting the content of diluent in the base layer, intermediate layer, and top layer, the density and hardness of the coating are improved, thereby solving the problems of low hardness, easy peeling, and poor anti-corrosion performance of existing anti-corrosion coatings.
