Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of polypropylene materials, and more specifically, to a conductive polypropylene sheet, a conductive polypropylene fabric, a high-strength conductive polypropylene composite material, and their preparation methods and applications. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of science and technology and people's pursuit of a convenient life, the demand for wearable electronic products is increasing day by day, especially in the fields of health monitoring, sports behavior tracking, and national defense and military applications, and is receiving increasing attention from academia and industry. Conductive fabrics that combine conductivity and excellent mechanical properties will inevitably be an important component of the future field of flexible wearable electronics.

[0003] Polypropylene (PP) resin has a low density (0.89–0.91 g / cm³). 3 Its excellent heat resistance, rigidity, and hardness make it suitable for a wide range of applications.

[0004] Highly oriented PP fibers or tapes can be obtained through self-reinforcing technology. For example, in US6312638B1, melt-spun oriented polyolefin fibers are hot-pressed. This method uses specific temperature and pressure to partially melt and bond the surface layer of the polyolefin to prepare a polyolefin board. However, this method is not only sensitive to the temperature of the hot pressing (high temperatures are required), but also results in significant deorbiting of the oriented fibers after hot pressing, leading to a marked decrease in mechanical strength. Another example is US8133537B2, which uses hot pressing of three layers of polyolefin fibers with different melting points to obtain a polyolefin composite material. The melting temperature of the first and second polyolefin layers is lower than that of the core layer. However, the impact strength and interlaminar peel strength of the hot-pressed composite material produced by this method are relatively low.

[0005] To make PP conductive, Chinese invention patent CN112409701B discloses a low-density conductive polypropylene composition, comprising the following components by weight: 80-90 parts PP resin, 5-15 parts hollow glass microspheres, 3-8 parts MWCNT, and 0.1-3 parts additives. Chinese invention patent CN113121918B discloses a method for preparing SEBS-modified conductive polypropylene nanocomposite. Using a twin-screw melt extrusion process, nano-CB is used as a conductive filler, and PP is used as the matrix. By filling with SEBS, which has a solubility parameter similar to PP, the flowability of the composite during processing is improved, the processing performance of the composite is enhanced, and the electrical properties of the conductive polypropylene nanocomposite flat filaments are improved.

[0006] However, the above technical solutions cannot produce PP sheets, fabrics, and composite materials that have both excellent mechanical and electrical properties, and therefore cannot meet the application requirements. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the technical shortcomings of existing polypropylene composite materials, which are difficult to simultaneously possess a wide processing temperature range, strong mechanical properties, high interlaminar peel strength, and good electrical conductivity. This invention provides polypropylene sheets, polypropylene fabrics, high-strength, high-impact polypropylene composite materials, their preparation methods, and applications. The polypropylene composite material obtained from the polypropylene sheets of this invention through hot pressing, etc., possesses excellent mechanical and electrical properties, and also exhibits good interlaminar peel strength. Even at relatively low hot pressing temperatures and within a wide hot pressing temperature range, the resulting conductive polypropylene composite material still maintains high interlaminar peel strength.

[0008] The first objective of this invention is to provide a conductive polypropylene sheet comprising layer A and layers B and B' located on both sides of layer A, having a structure of BAB'.

[0015] In this invention, the content of each component of the polypropylene composition B and the polypropylene composition B' can be selected within a wide range. Preferably, based on the total weight of the polypropylene composition B and the polypropylene composition B', each of the polypropylene composition B and the polypropylene composition B' includes 20-95 wt% random copolymer polypropylene x, 0.5-35 wt% thermal bonding reinforcing agent y, and 0-60 wt% composite conductive filler z; more preferably, each of the polypropylene composition B and the polypropylene composition B' includes 30-80 wt% random copolymer polypropylene x, 3-25 wt% thermal bonding reinforcing agent y, and 5-45 wt% composite conductive filler z.

[0016] According to the present invention, more preferably, based on the total weight of the polypropylene composition B and the polypropylene composition B', each of the polypropylene composition B and the polypropylene composition B' comprises 30-80 wt% of random copolymer polypropylene x; for example, 30 wt%, 40 wt%, 50 wt%, 60 wt%, 70 wt%, 80 wt%, and any two values ​​or any range of any two values.

[0017] According to the present invention, more preferably, based on the total weight of the polypropylene composition B and the polypropylene composition B', each of the polypropylene composition B and the polypropylene composition B' comprises 3-25 wt% of a heat-bonding reinforcing agent y, such as 3 wt%, 5 wt%, 10 wt%, 20 wt%, 25 wt%, and any two values ​​or any range of any two values.

[0018] According to the present invention, more preferably, based on the total weight of the polypropylene composition B and the polypropylene composition B', each of the polypropylene composition B and the polypropylene composition B' comprises 5-45 wt% of composite conductive filler z, such as 5 wt%, 10 wt%, 20 wt%, 30 wt%, 40 wt%, 45 wt%, and any two values ​​or any range of any two values.

[0019] In this invention, the thickness percentage of layer A can be selected within a wide range. Preferably, based on the total thickness of the conductive polypropylene sheet, the thickness of layer A accounts for 51%-89% of the total thickness, more preferably 71%-89%, and even more preferably 71%-80%. The thicknesses of film layers B and B' on both sides of film layer A can be the same or different, preferably the same.

[0020] The present invention does not limit the thickness of the conductive polypropylene sheet, and it can be selected within a wide range according to its actual application field. Preferably, the thickness of the polypropylene sheet can be 10-1000μm, more preferably 30-500μm, and even more preferably 50-300μm.

[0021] According to the present invention, the thickness of film layers A, B, and B' can be controlled by the extruder melt pump during the processing.

[0022] According to some preferred embodiments of the present invention, the melting point of homopolymer polypropylene a in polypropylene composition A is greater than the melting point of random copolymer polypropylene x in polypropylene composition B and polypropylene composition B', preferably the temperature difference between the corresponding melting points is greater than or equal to 10°C.

[0023] According to some preferred embodiments of the present invention, the difference between the melting point of polypropylene composition A and the melting point of polypropylene composition B, and the difference between the melting point of polypropylene composition A and the melting point of polypropylene composition B', are each greater than or equal to 5°C, preferably greater than or equal to 10°C, and more preferably greater than or equal to 20°C. The inventors of the present invention have surprisingly discovered that the resulting polypropylene sheet, after hot pressing and the like, yields a polypropylene composite material with superior mechanical properties, and also exhibits better interlaminar peel strength. Even at lower hot pressing temperatures and over a wider range of hot pressing temperatures, the resulting polypropylene composite material exhibits higher interlaminar peel strength.

[0024] According to some preferred embodiments of the present invention, the homopolymer polypropylene a has: a melting point of 150-170°C, preferably 160-170°C; and / or a melt flow rate of 0.5-50 g / 10 min, preferably 1-20 g / 10 min, more preferably 2.5-18 g / 10 min, at 230°C and a load of 2.16 kg; and / or an isotacticity (mm) of not less than 96%.

[0025] According to some preferred embodiments of the present invention, the impact-resistant copolymer polypropylene b has the following characteristics: the melting point of the impact-resistant copolymer polypropylene b is 150-170°C; and / or, the monomer for copolymerizing the impact-resistant copolymer polypropylene b with propylene is ethylene or butene, preferably butene; and / or, the melt flow rate of the impact-resistant copolymer polypropylene b at 230°C and 2.16 kg load is 0.5-50 g / 10 min, preferably 1-20 g / 10 min, more preferably 2.5-18 g / 10 min; and / or, the cantilever beam impact strength of the impact-resistant copolymer polypropylene b is not less than 20 KJ / m. 2 (Tested at 23℃).

[0026] According to the inventors' research, when the melt flow rate and polymer composition ratio of polypropylene composition A are within the above-mentioned preferred range, the high-impact copolymer polypropylene b in the composition can effectively absorb impact energy, meeting the impact performance requirements and giving the sheet good impact performance. Simultaneously, because the macromolecular chain segments in homopolymer polypropylene a are relatively regular, crystallization occurs during the sheet preparation process, thus the sheet also has good tensile properties.

[0027] According to some preferred embodiments of the present invention, the random copolymer polypropylene x has the following characteristics: a melting point of 110-150°C, preferably 120-140°C; and / or a melt flow rate of 0.5-50 g / 10 min at 230°C and a load of 2.16 kg, preferably 1-20 g / 10 min, more preferably 3-18 g / 10 min; and / or a molecular weight distribution Mw / Mn of 5-12, preferably 7-10; and / or a copolymer of propylene with ethylene and / or butene, preferably an ethylene-propylene-butene terpolymer and / or a propylene-ethylene binary copolymer.

[0028] According to some preferred embodiments of the present invention, the thermal bonding reinforcing agent y has: a melting point or viscous flow temperature of 70-110°C; and / or a melt flow rate of 0.5-50 g / 10 min at 190°C and a load of 2.16 kg, preferably 1-20 g / 10 min, more preferably 1-18 g / 10 min; and / or selected from one or more of polyolefin elastomers, ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) rubber, SEBS, SBS, EVA, and petroleum resins; preferably, it is a polyolefin elastomer and / or petroleum resin; more preferably, the polyolefin elastomer is a copolymer elastomer of ethylene and propylene and / or α-olefins, wherein the α-olefin is preferably a C4-C12 α-olefin, more preferably 1-butene and / or 1-octene; and / or, the petroleum resin is a C5 and / or C9 hydrogenated petroleum resin with a softening point of 100-150°C; preferably a cyclopentadiene type resin.

[0029] According to the inventors' research, when the melt flow rate and polymer composition ratio of polypropylene compositions B and B' are within the preferred range, the low-melting-point random copolymer polypropylene x and the heat-bonding reinforcing agent y in the composition can significantly reduce the hot-pressing temperature and widen the hot-pressing temperature window. Furthermore, the heat-bonding reinforcing agent y provides good adhesion performance for the sheet and can further improve the interlayer peel strength.

[0030] According to some preferred embodiments of the present invention, layer A further contains a β-crystal nucleating agent; preferably,

[0031] The β-crystal nucleating agent is selected from at least one of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, group IIA two-component complexes, aromatic diamides, rare earth compounds, and cyclic dicarboxylate nucleating agents.

[0032] In this invention, the content of the β-crystal nucleating agent can be selected over a wide range. Preferably, relative to 100 parts by weight of polypropylene composition A, the content of the β-crystal nucleating agent in layer A is 0.01-0.5 parts by weight. Specifically, for example, the content of the β-crystal nucleating agent can be 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, or 0.5 parts by weight.

[0033] According to the inventors' research, when the melt flow rate, polymer composition ratio, and thickness distribution of film layer A of polypropylene composition A, polypropylene composition B, and polypropylene composition B' are within the preferred range, the sheet preparation process can be made more stable, thereby giving the sheet better uniformity, tensile strength, impact performance, and interlayer peel strength.

[0034] In this invention, the composite conductive filler c and composite conductive filler z have a wide range of options, and can be the same or different, each including a conductive main material, a conductive auxiliary material, and an optional interface modifier; preferably,

[0035] Based on the total weight of the composite conductive filler c and the composite conductive filler z, each of the composite conductive filler c and the composite conductive filler z includes 40-97wt%, more preferably 49.5-95wt%, of conductive main material, 3-60wt%, more preferably 4.5-50wt%, of conductive auxiliary material, and 0-4wt%, more preferably 0.5-3wt%, of interface modifier.

Preferably, the metal-plated nanofiber includes gold-plated calcium sulfate whiskers, platinum-plated calcium sulfate whiskers, gold-plated glass fiber, or platinum-plated glass fiber. The conductive auxiliary material has high conductivity and fibrous microstructure, and can act as a "bridge" between conductive main materials to form a better conductive channel, thereby achieving the production of highly conductive composite materials at low cost.

[0042] As an explanation, the interface modifier is one or more (including two) of surfactants, maleic anhydride, silane coupling agents, titanate coupling agents, and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). The interface modifier has the function of regulating the interfacial compatibility between conductive main materials and conductive auxiliary materials and polypropylene, reducing interfacial voids and interfacial resistance, and can obtain composite materials with higher conductivity.

[0275] Polypropylene fabrics and polypropylene composites were prepared according to the method of Example 3.

[0276] The thickness of the prepared polypropylene composite material is similar to that of Example 3.

[0277] Comparative Example 5

[0281] Comparative Example 6

[0282] Three-layer co-extruded polypropylene sheets and polypropylene fabrics were prepared according to the method in Example 1.

The prepared polypropylene fabrics were stacked sequentially from bottom to top as B1A1B1, B2A2B2, B3A3B3, B2A2B2, and B1A1B1, with a total of 5 layers. The stacked polypropylene fabrics were then hot-pressed and fused together, and then cooled and shaped to form the polypropylene composite material.

[0283] Example

[0284] The conductive polypropylene composite materials obtained in the above examples and comparative examples were tested according to the following methods, and the test results are shown in Table 1.

[0285] (1) Tensile strength: Samples were prepared and tested according to the methods specified in GB / T1040.1-2018;

[0286] (2) Interlayer peel strength: Samples were prepared and measured in accordance with the method specified in QB / T2358-98.

[0287] (3) Drop hammer impact strength: The test shall be conducted in accordance with the method specified in GB / T14153-1993.

[0288] (4) Resistivity: The resistivity was measured according to the method specified in GB / T 15738-2008. Among them, the thickness of the polypropylene composite materials obtained in Examples 2-8 and Comparative Examples 1-5 were all similar, around 1.7 mm, and all within the range of 1.7 mm ± 0.1 mm.

[0289] Table 1

[0290]

[0291]

[0292] The results from the examples in Table 1 show that the conductive polypropylene composite material prepared according to the present invention possesses excellent tensile properties, impact resistance, and electrical conductivity, while also exhibiting good interlaminar peel strength at relatively low hot-pressing temperatures. The conductive polypropylene composite sheet of the present invention has a longitudinal (MD) tensile strength ≥120 MPa, an interlaminar peel strength ≥1 N / mm, and a resistivity ≤100000 Ω·cm. When the conductive polypropylene composite material is made of 24 layers of conductive polypropylene fabric hot-pressed together with a thickness of approximately 1.7 mm, its drop hammer impact strength ≥200 J.

[0293] As can be seen from the preferred embodiments 3, 6, and 10, the conductive polypropylene composite material prepared by the present invention has a longitudinal (MD) tensile strength ≥120MPa, an interlayer peel strength ≥1.2N / mm, and a resistivity ≤1000Ω·cm; when the conductive polypropylene composite material is made of 24 layers of conductive polypropylene fabric hot-pressed together and the thickness is about 1.7mm, the drop hammer impact strength is ≥200J.

[0294] As can be seen from Comparative Examples 1-6, using only a single-layer sheet structure or using interlayer ratios outside the scope of the examples will lead to a decrease in the performance of the laminated polypropylene sheets or fabrics. Using process conditions outside the scope of the examples will significantly reduce the tensile strength, impact performance, interlayer peel strength, or electrical conductivity of the resulting polypropylene composite material.

[0295] A comparison of Examples 1-2 and Comparative Example 6 shows that, compared with conventional non-gradient melting point polypropylene composites, the polypropylene composites of the present invention with a melting point gradient structure exhibit higher tensile strength, impact properties, and interlaminar peel strength. Compared with conventional non-gradient melting point polypropylene composites, the polypropylene composites of the present invention with a melting point gradient structure require shorter hot-pressing times or lower hot-pressing temperatures during processing. It is believed that reducing the hot-pressing time or temperature can reduce the damage to mechanical properties caused by molecular chain disorientation. Furthermore, reducing the hot-pressing time or temperature can also achieve the beneficial effect of cost reduction and efficiency improvement.

[0296] The various embodiments of the present invention have been described above. These descriptions are exemplary and not exhaustive, nor are they limited to the disclosed embodiments. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments.

For numerical ranges, the endpoint values ​​of the various ranges, the endpoint values ​​of the various ranges and individual point values, and individual point values ​​can be combined with each other to obtain one or more new numerical ranges, which should be considered as specifically disclosed herein.
