Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a latex paint, and more particularly to a formaldehyde-free latex paint and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] In modern society, with the acceleration of industrialization and the improvement of people's living standards, various materials used in interior decoration and furniture manufacturing, such as artificial boards, paints, and adhesives, often release harmful substances such as formaldehyde, which pose a serious threat to human health. Formaldehyde is a colorless, irritating gas with strong carcinogenic and teratogenic effects. Long-term exposure may cause discomfort in the eyes, nose, and throat, and even lead to respiratory and blood diseases. Therefore, reducing indoor formaldehyde pollution and protecting people's health has become one of the urgent social problems to be solved.

[0003] Against this backdrop, the research and application of formaldehyde-reducing latex paint is particularly important. This type of paint, by adding special ingredients such as photocatalysts, activated carbon, and nanomaterials, can effectively adsorb and decompose formaldehyde in the indoor environment, converting it into harmless water and carbon dioxide, thereby purifying indoor air and improving the comfort and safety of the living environment. Research on formaldehyde-reducing latex paint involves multiple disciplines, including materials science, chemical engineering, and environmental science, and also needs to consider the paint's environmental friendliness, economy, and practicality to meet market and consumer demands.

[0004] However, the research and application of formaldehyde-removing latex paint also face some challenges. For example, how to improve the formaldehyde removal efficiency of the paint, how to ensure the long-term stability and safety of the paint, and how to reduce production costs to make it more widespread and economical. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a formaldehyde-removing latex paint that can solve the problems of low formaldehyde purification efficiency, short duration and high catalytic temperature of existing formaldehyde-removing latex paints.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0007] A formaldehyde-free latex paint is made from the following raw materials in parts by weight: 40-50 parts acrylic emulsion, 3-6 parts catalyst, 20-30 parts pigments and fillers, 5-7 parts functional additives, 2-4 parts water-based color paste, and 13-19 parts deionized water.

[0008] This invention uses acrylic emulsion as the base material for latex paint. Acrylic emulsion has good water resistance, alkali resistance, and stain resistance, and exhibits good adhesion to brick, wood, and steel surfaces. Furthermore, the acrylic emulsion used in this invention is preferably at least one of pure acrylic emulsion, styrene-acrylic emulsion, and vinyl acetate-acrylic emulsion.

[0009] Furthermore, the catalyst of the present invention is prepared by the following steps:

[0010] An aminosilane coupling agent and polyetheramine were dissolved in an ethanol-water solution. Then, graphene oxide powder, silica aerogel powder, and doped nano-titanium dioxide powder were added. The mixture was heated under reflux and stirred for 5-8 hours. After the reaction, it was allowed to cool to room temperature, repeatedly filtered and washed with deionized water, and then freeze-dried for 12-24 hours before grinding to obtain the catalyst. The silica aerogel powder, with its extremely high porosity and specific surface area, can improve the catalyst's adsorption capacity for formaldehyde. Furthermore, the aminosilane coupling agent reacts with the hydroxyl groups on its surface, enhancing its dispersibility in aqueous emulsions. In addition, the aminosilane coupling agent also reduces and modifies the surface of graphene oxide. The reduced graphene oxide not only has a higher affinity for formaldehyde but also exhibits excellent photothermal, ultraviolet light absorption, and electronic conductivity properties, which can enhance the photocatalytic degradation performance of doped nano-titanium dioxide particles for formaldehyde. When titanium dioxide is irradiated with ultraviolet light, electrons on its surface are excited, transitioning from the valence band to the conduction band, forming photogenerated electrons and holes. These photogenerated electrons and holes then react with water molecules or oxygen adsorbed on the catalyst surface during migration, generating highly oxidizing active substances such as hydroxyl radicals or superoxide radicals. Finally, these active substances react with formaldehyde molecules in the air in a redox reaction, gradually oxidizing and decomposing formaldehyde into carbon dioxide and water. Furthermore, doping with elements such as nitrogen, iron, and manganese gives titanium dioxide a narrower band gap, allowing electrons to be excited and catalyzing formaldehyde degradation under visible light, thus improving its utilization of natural light. In addition, aminosilane coupling agents and polyetheramines can modify and alter the surface of doped nano-titanium dioxide, promoting its dispersion while polyetheramines can also adhere it to the surface of reduced graphene oxide. Polyetheramines can not only reduce graphene oxide but also crosslink reduced graphene oxide nanosheets supported by doped titanium dioxide, connecting the nanosheets and forming a reduced graphene oxide aerogel supported by doped titanium dioxide after drying. By crosslinking the reduced graphene oxide nanosheets to form a three-dimensional aerogel structure, agglomeration of the nanosheets in aqueous emulsions is avoided, and a larger specific surface area and more adsorption sites for doped titanium dioxide and formaldehyde are generated, thereby improving the catalytic activity of the doped titanium dioxide. Therefore, under the combined action of the reduced graphene oxide aerogel supported by doped titanium dioxide and the silica aerogel, the catalyst exhibits excellent formaldehyde adsorption and catalytic degradation, demonstrating ultra-high formaldehyde purification efficiency and long-lasting purification.

[0011] Further, in the preparation step of the catalyst described in this invention, the aminosilane coupling agent is preferably at least one of a monoaminosilane coupling agent, a diaminosilane coupling agent, and a triaminosilane coupling agent; the ethanol aqueous solution is used for the dissolution and hydrolysis of the aminosilane coupling agent, as well as the solution in the liquid-phase synthesis system, and its volume fraction is preferably 50-75%; the average number-average molecular weight of the polyetheramine is preferably 230-2000 g / mol; the sheet diameter of the graphene oxide is preferably 0.2-50 μm; the particle size of the silica aerogel powder is preferably 5-50 μm; and the doped nano-titanium dioxide powder is preferably nitrogen-doped nano-titanium dioxide powder. At least one of titanium dioxide, iron-doped nano-titanium dioxide, and manganese-doped nano-titanium dioxide, with a particle size preferably of 5-30 nm; the mass ratio of aminosilane coupling agent, polyetheramine, ethanol aqueous solution, graphene oxide powder, silica aerogel powder, and doped nano-titanium dioxide powder is preferably (1-2):(3-5):100:(2-3):(0.5-1):(8-10); the heating temperature is preferably 65-75℃, the stirring speed is preferably 400-600 rpm, the freeze-drying temperature is preferably -10℃, and the mesh size of the catalyst after grinding is preferably 100-200 mesh.

[0012] The pigments and fillers used in this invention not only provide basic color and hiding power for latex paint, but also enhance the physical and chemical properties of the latex paint. Furthermore, the pigments and fillers used in this invention are preferably at least one of titanium dioxide, kaolin, and heavy calcium carbonate.

[0013] The functional additives used in this invention have functions such as assisting in the dispersion of pigments, fillers, and catalysts, defoaming, assisting in film formation, and adjusting pH and viscosity. Further, the functional additives of this invention are preferably at least one of dispersants, defoamers, film-forming aids, pH adjusters, and thickeners.

[0014] The water-based colorant used in this invention is for adjusting the color of latex paint. Further, the water-based colorant of this invention is at least one of water-based organic colorant and water-based inorganic colorant.

[0015] Another technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a method for preparing the above-mentioned formaldehyde-free latex paint.

[0016] To solve the above technical problems, the technical solution is as follows:

[0017] A method for preparing a formaldehyde-free latex paint includes the following steps:

[0018] Weigh each raw material according to the mass fraction, mix the acrylic emulsion, catalyst, pigments and fillers, functional additives, water-based color paste and deionized water, and stir for 60-120 minutes to obtain formaldehyde-free latex paint.

[0019] Furthermore, the stirring speed of the present invention is preferably 1000-1500 rpm.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0021] (1) The formaldehyde-removing latex paint provided by the present invention enhances the photocatalytic performance of doped nano-titanium dioxide by reducing graphene oxide and enhances the adsorption of formaldehyde by silica aerogel. Therefore, it has excellent formaldehyde purification efficiency (greater than 93%) and purification durability (R6 greater than 83%) under visible light, and can quickly and continuously remove harmful substances such as formaldehyde in the room and improve indoor air quality.

[0022] (2) The aldehyde-free latex paint preparation process provided by the present invention is simple, and it uses water as a medium with low organic solvent content. It has little impact on human health and the environment during production and construction, and belongs to the category of water-based coatings. Therefore, it has good environmental protection properties. Detailed Implementation
