Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of functional coatings, specifically relating to a marine anti-corrosion and antifouling coating. Background Technology

[0002] The marine environment is an extremely harsh corrosive environment. Seawater and the marine atmosphere have high salinity, and the corrosive environment is affected by factors such as sunlight, sea breeze, and marine life. Currently, my country is in the initial stage of research on the corrosion mechanism of marine coatings and in the development and application of marine coatings, lagging far behind developed countries. The market prospects for long-lasting marine anti-corrosion coatings are vast. Therefore, it is necessary to vigorously develop marine anti-corrosion coatings with excellent corrosion resistance.

[0003] Zinc and aluminum, among other metals, provide excellent corrosion protection to the metal substrate in coatings, acting as sacrificial anodes and are commonly used anti-corrosion fillers. However, they suffer from short service life. Graphene, as a novel anti-corrosion filler, has attracted widespread attention. Research shows that adding graphene and its derivatives to coatings can significantly improve the coating's impermeability through the stacking of graphene sheets, effectively hindering the penetration of O2, water, and corrosive media, exhibiting a "maze effect," thereby effectively enhancing the coating's corrosion resistance. However, due to the π-π interactions between graphene sheets, its dispersion in coatings is poor, easily leading to problems such as accumulation and agglomeration. Furthermore, once the coating is damaged, a galvanic cell, with graphene as the positive electrode and the metal substrate as the negative electrode, is instantly formed, greatly accelerating the corrosion process. These factors hinder the further application of graphene in the field of corrosion protection.

[0004] In addition, there is the issue of biosorption in the ocean, where the accumulation of biosorbents on surfaces increases surface roughness. Underwater facilities also face corrosion problems, including seawater corrosion and microbial corrosion. Seawater is a corrosive substance; its high oxygen and ion content can cause electrochemical reactions with metal surfaces, leading to corrosion. Microbial corrosion occurs when microorganisms deposit on surfaces, causing localized changes in dissolved oxygen, redox potential, and pH, which enhances the chemical / electrochemical reactions between microorganisms, the medium, and the metal, resulting in or accelerating corrosion of the metal surface.

[0005] Therefore, the research on marine corrosion prevention and biofouling prevention are intertwined issues, and the development and design of high-performance marine anti-corrosion and antifouling coatings is urgently needed. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to address the need for further improvement in the anti-corrosion performance of existing marine anti-corrosion coatings, while simultaneously reducing the adhesion of marine organisms.

[0047] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0048] (1) This invention provides a marine anti-corrosion and antifouling coating, the main resin of which is a two-component polyurethane structure with epoxy resin, acrylic resin, and isocyanate curing agent as the main components. First, epoxy resin has high polarity, resulting in excellent adhesion to the substrate and good compatibility with fillers and other resins. Second, acrylic resin has excellent weather resistance and gloss and color retention, which can effectively improve the weather resistance of the coating. Third, the polyurethane structure has excellent abrasion resistance and chemical resistance, which can improve the anti-corrosion performance of the coating under extreme marine weather conditions. The epoxy-acrylic-polyurethane system can effectively improve the coating's advantages in adhesion, weather resistance, and anti-corrosion properties.

[0049] (2) This invention provides a marine anti-corrosion and antifouling coating, one of its components being an active metal filler, which is a blend of zinc powder and alumina. Firstly, alumina is an amphoteric oxide that can balance the acidity and alkalinity of the coating surface, placing it in a near-neutral environment and providing initial corrosion protection. Secondly, zinc powder has high oxidizing activity and can act as a sacrificial anode to protect the substrate, further protecting it from corrosion. The synergistic effect of zinc powder and alumina improves the corrosion resistance of the substrate from a chemical protection perspective.

[0050] (3) This invention provides a marine anti-corrosion and antifouling coating, one of its components being a modified graphene filler, which is a self-made silane-modified core-shell structure, wherein the core layer is graphene oxide and the shell layer is a nano-titanium dioxide structure. First, the nano-titanium loaded in the graphene structure greatly increases its specific surface area, effectively enhancing the photocatalytic effect of titanium dioxide and reducing the organic biomass content on the coating surface, thereby achieving an antifouling effect; Second, graphene is a SP 2Hybridized two-dimensional hexagonal honeycomb lattice carbon nanomaterials exhibit a "maze effect," effectively blocking the penetration of chloride ions, water, and oxygen, thus providing highly efficient anti-corrosion performance. Third, the layered structure of graphene has a certain lubricating effect, enhancing the physical properties of the coating. Fourth, once the coating is damaged, the nano-titanium encapsulation of graphene prevents the formation of localized galvanic cells, thereby avoiding electrochemical corrosion. Fifth, graphene's excellent thermal conductivity prevents coating damage caused by extreme temperature fluctuations during use, extending its anti-corrosion lifespan. Sixth, silane modification, especially aminosilane modification, allows modified graphene fillers to exhibit excellent compatibility with epoxy and acrylic resins, improving the mechanical properties of the coating.

[0051] (4) This invention provides a marine anti-corrosion and antifouling coating, one of its components being a zwitterionic polymer, which is a self-made macromolecule containing quaternary ammonium salts and anions. First, zwitterions can form a dense hydration layer with water molecules, effectively preventing the adhesion of proteins and microorganisms, and possessing excellent biofouling resistance; second, the cations in the zwitterions have a quaternary ammonium salt structure, which has certain antimicrobial properties; third, the anions in the zwitterions are phosphates or sulfates, which can coordinate with the substrate to form a complex structure, providing passivation protection for the substrate; fourth, the zwitterionic polymer is a conductive polymer structure that can act as a barrier to prevent ions from penetrating into the substrate, and its excellent ability to conduct electrons and ions can promote the delocalization of surface charges, avoiding the formation of local anodic or cathodic regions that cause localized corrosion; fifth, the ionic groups in the zwitterionic polymer have excellent dispersing effects on resins and fillers, and can be used as macromolecular dispersants.

[0052] Thus, this invention provides a marine anti-corrosion and antifouling coating that provides anti-corrosion treatment from three angles: chemical protection, physical barrier, and substrate passivation, resulting in excellent anti-corrosion effects; at the same time, it provides biofouling protection from two levels: photocatalytic chemistry and zwitterionic physical antifouling, resulting in excellent antifouling performance. Detailed implementation method:

[0053] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to embodiments. However, it should be understood that the following embodiments are merely illustrative examples of implementation of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0054] The purpose of this invention is to develop a marine anti-corrosion and antifouling coating. The approach is as follows: First, considering the application potential and existing problems of graphene in the field of corrosion prevention, a graphene filler is prepared by self-making, which is based on graphene, modified with nano-titanium, and modified with silane; simultaneously improving its dispersibility and addressing electrochemical corrosion after damage; concurrently, a polymer with anti-bioadhesion properties is prepared, which can balance the charge of the paint film, further providing corrosion resistance while preventing biofouling; third, given the complexity of the marine environment and the post-biofouling environment, an amphoteric metal filler is compounded with an active metal to achieve initial corrosion prevention. The theoretical basis for this is: graphene is oxidized, then reacted with tetrabutyl titanate in a solvothermal reaction, followed by modification with a silane coupling agent. The amphoteric polymer is prepared by using a common alkaloid as the main component and reducing its hydrophilicity, allowing it to copolymerize with an epoxy group structure. The epoxy group has excellent compatibility with the main resin, and the phosphate or sulfonate structure in the alkaloid can rapidly complex with the metal substrate or metal filler, reducing the corrosion process. The active metal filler can be any commercially available coating material. Within the epoxy-acrylic-polyurethane system, the components work synergistically, providing excellent corrosion and fouling resistance while maintaining physical properties.

[0304] Table 1 Physical test performance of each embodiment

[0305]

[0306] First, compared with Comparative Examples 1-8, the marine anti-corrosion and antifouling coating of the present invention has excellent corrosion resistance and biofouling resistance, as well as excellent physical properties.

[0307] Secondly, as can be observed from Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-3, the modified graphene filler in the marine anti-corrosion and antifouling coating of the present invention, modified with nano-titanium and modified with silane coupling agent, has excellent dispersibility. At the same time, due to the "maze effect" brought about by the graphene sheet structure, it has excellent anti-corrosion properties. In addition, the graphene modified with nano-titanium will not form local galvanic cells for electrochemical corrosion after the coating is damaged, and has excellent long-term anti-corrosion performance. As can be observed from Example 1 and Comparative Examples 4-5, the zwitterionic polymer acts as a dispersant, making the fillers disperse evenly and improving mechanical properties. At the same time, the phosphate ester structure has an anchoring and complexing effect on the substrate, improving the anti-corrosion performance. On the other hand, the zwitterionic polymer formed by zwitterionic self-polymerization has a large hydrophilicity, which has a significant impact on the anti-corrosion performance of the paint film. As can be observed from Example 1 and Comparative Examples 6-8, the zinc powder and alumina in the active metal filler have good synergistic anti-corrosion performance.

[0308] Third, it can be observed from Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-5 that the nano-titanium structure and zwitterionic polymer in the marine anti-corrosion and antifouling coating of the present invention have synergistic biofouling resistance.

[0309] In summary, the marine anti-corrosion and antifouling coating of the present invention has excellent anti-corrosion and biofouling properties.

[0310] The testing method is as follows:

[0311] (1) Hardness: Tested according to the method described in GB / T 6739-2022. Mitsubishi pencil and 750g weight were used.

[0312] (2) Adhesion: Adhesion test shall be conducted in accordance with the method described in GB / T 9286-2021.

[0313] (3) Impact resistance: Tested according to the method described in GB / T 1732-2020.

[0314] (4) Resistance to neutral salt spray: Tested according to the method described in GB / T 1771-2007. The method of expressing resistance to neutral salt spray is divided into the following categories according to the severity of corrosion: no defects, blistering, paint film peeling, rust spots, and corrosion.

[0315] (5) Salt water resistance: Prepare a 5wt% NaCl aqueous solution, immerse the sample to be tested in it, and observe the changes in the paint film after 25℃ for 1000h and 25℃ for 1200h respectively. Salt water resistance is expressed according to the severity of corrosion as follows: no defects, blistering, paint film peeling, rust spots, and corrosion.

[0316] (6) Anti-cell adhesion: 3T3 mouse embryonic bromide blastocytes were preserved in T-75 Falcon cell culture and cultured in sterile Durbeco modified Falcon medium (DMEM) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and 100 units / ml penicillin and 0.1 mg / ml streptomycin. Six samples of each cover (36 samples in total) were placed in 6-well tissue culture plates and irradiated under UV light for 10–15 min. Cells were seeded onto the varnish at a density of approximately 11,000 cells / cm². The cells were then incubated at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 24 h, after which the medium was poured off and the cells were gently rinsed once with PBS. The number of adherent cells was defined as the number of viable cells per 100*field. The control percentage was calculated by multiplying the percentage of viable cells on the treated substrate to the percentage of viable cells on the untreated substrate by 100. The mean control adhesion rate for each sample group was determined, and the viability assays were statistically compared as described above.

[0317] Based on the above-described preferred embodiments of the present invention, and through the foregoing description, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the inventive concept. The technical scope of this invention is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
