Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of fire-retardant coating technology, and more specifically to a high flash point fire-retardant coating based on heat-resistant phenylphosphine oxide and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Fire-retardant coatings can be applied to the surface of combustible substrates to reduce the flammability of the coated material, inhibit the rapid spread of fire, and thus improve the fire resistance of the coated material. When applied to the surface of combustible substrates, they can alter the surface combustion characteristics of the material, inhibiting the rapid spread of fire; or they can be applied to building components to improve the fire resistance of the components. Existing fire-retardant coatings are classified according to element type into halogen-based, organophosphorus-based and halogen-phosphorus-based, nitrogen-based, silicon-based, aluminum-magnesium-based, and molybdenum-based coatings, among others.

[0003] Epoxy resin is a common base material for fire-retardant coatings, and its fire-retardant effect mainly comes from flame-retardant additives. The use of flame retardants can significantly delay ignition time, thereby preventing the spread of flames. When organophosphorus and halogen-phosphorus flame retardants are added as phosphorus-containing compounds, they usually produce acidic substances, leading to premature degradation of the polymer and resulting in problems such as a lower flash point of the coating.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a fire-retardant coating with high thermal stability and high flash point. Summary of the Invention

[0005] 1. The technical problem that the invention aims to solve

[0006] To address the problem that adding phosphorus-containing flame-retardant additives to fire-retardant coatings in existing technologies often produces acidic substances, causing early polymer degradation and thus lowering the flash point of the coating, this invention proposes a high flash point fire-retardant coating based on heat-resistant phenylphosphine oxide and its preparation method. The heat-resistant phenylphosphine oxide contains phosphorus with flame-retardant properties, thereby avoiding early polymer degradation and improving the flash point of the coating.

[0007] 2. Technical Solution

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

The heat-resistant phenylphosphine oxide contained in it contains phosphorus with flame-retardant properties. It has a high thermal decomposition temperature and, as a flame-retardant additive, can improve the thermal stability of the coating, thereby avoiding early degradation of the polymer and increasing the flash point of the coating to above 60°C.

[0019] A further technical solution is that the curing agent is one or more of aliphatic amines, aromatic amines, amino polyamides and dicyandiamides. When the curing agent is a mixture of aliphatic amines, aromatic amines, amino polyamides and dicyandiamides, the mass ratio is 1:1:2:2.

[0020] A method for preparing one or more high flash point fire-retardant coatings based on heat-resistant phenylphosphine oxide includes the following steps:

[0021] Step A: Add heat-resistant phenylphosphine oxide to epoxy resin and stir, then add an appropriate amount of dispersant and mix evenly to obtain mixture a;

[0022] Step B: Add cobalt isooctanoate and methyl ethyl ketone peroxide to mixture a, and stir until homogeneous to obtain mixture b;

[0023] Step C: Add the curing agent to mixture b, mix thoroughly, and obtain a high flash point fire-retardant coating based on heat-resistant phenylphosphine oxide.

[0024] A further preparation method is as follows: in step A, the heat-resistant phenylphosphine oxide and epoxy resin are vigorously stirred in a high-speed homogenizer for 30-50 min, the dispersant is toluene or xylene, and the amount of dispersant added is 25% of the amount of epoxy resin. The mixture a is obtained after ultrasonic treatment at 150-170W for 15-25 min; the mixture b is obtained after stirring for 30 min in step B.

[0028] Figure 1 This invention provides a comparison of the fire-retardant effects of high flash point fire-retardant coatings based on heat-resistant phenylphosphine oxide. Detailed Implementation

[0029] To further understand the content of this invention, the invention will be described in detail below.

[0030] The following detailed description of exemplary embodiments of the invention is taken with reference to the accompanying drawings, which form part of the description and illustrate exemplary embodiments in which the invention may be practiced. While these exemplary embodiments have been described in sufficient detail to enable those skilled in the art to practice the invention, it should be understood that other embodiments may be implemented and various changes may be made to the invention without departing from the spirit and scope thereof. The more detailed description of embodiments of the invention below is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but is merely illustrative and not restrictive of the description of the features and characteristics of the invention, to suggest the best mode for carrying out the invention, and is sufficient to enable those skilled in the art to practice the invention. Therefore, the scope of the invention is defined only by the appended claims.

[0031] According to the national standard GB / T13690-92 "Classification and Marking of Commonly Used Hazardous Chemicals", liquids with a flash point below 60℃ are classified as hazardous materials, posing safety hazards during transportation and storage, thus limiting the application of paint thinners as a marketable commodity. Therefore, this invention refers to a flash point (closed cup) > 60℃ as a high flash point. The epoxy resin used in this invention is epoxy resin 828 (molecular formula C...). 54 H 60 O9 (flash point 78℃) or epoxy resin 815 (molecular formula C) 25 H 35 ClO5, flash point 192.4℃), epoxy resin (C 14 H 20 In addition to methyl ethyl ketone peroxide (MEK, flash point 118.3℃), other types of epoxy resins with flash points higher than 60℃ can also be used in the fire-retardant coatings of this invention. The addition of MEK is relatively small and has almost no effect on the flash point of the fire-retardant coating. Furthermore, aliphatic amines (flash point greater than 140℃), aromatic amines (flash point greater than 100℃), amino polyamides (flash point 110℃), and dicyandiamides (flash point 92.8℃) all produce fire-retardant coatings with flash points above 60℃, which are high flash point fire-retardant coatings based on heat-resistant phenylphosphine oxide.
