AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing railway de-icing methods can easily cause wear and tear on precision components. Manual de-icing is costly and inefficient, and cannot quickly melt ice under low-temperature conditions.

Method used

A rare earth-based thermosensitive organic supramolecular gel coating material is used to rapidly melt ice layers at low temperatures through the endothermic effect of rare earth compounds. The material consists of four-carbon bromine-chain columnar aromatics, rare earth nano-borides, reaction solvents, and catalysts, and achieves reversible transformation by utilizing host-guest interactions and hydrogen bonds.

Benefits of technology

It can rapidly melt ice at low temperatures, reducing manual de-icing time, lowering costs, and avoiding wear. The material has high hydrophobicity and reversibility, which improves de-icing efficiency and coating durability.

Abstract

The application provides a rare earth-based temperature-sensitive organic supermolecular gel ice-melting accelerating coating material and a preparation method. The material uses a single-modified columnar arene, has better flexibility than a multi-modified compound, is convenient for producing a structure transition, and a compound modified by four carbon chains has a higher yield than a compound modified by a longer carbon chain, and can generate a substitution reaction faster than the longer carbon chain at normal temperature and pressure. The one-step synthesis method is simple and easy to operate, and connects lanthanum hexaboride to a polymer chain in a chemical bond mode, compensates for the low strength and poor toughness of inorganic nanoparticles and the weak weather resistance and stability of organic matters, and uses a cyan compound which has a strong cavity bonding force with the columnar arene, so that the lanthanum hexaboride is not easy to fall off with a phase transition during ice removal, and thus loses the photo-thermal effect.
