Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of rubber materials, and in particular to the technical field of a preparation method of a thermoplastic interpenetrating double network rubber material and its application. Background Art
[0002] Once rubber is vulcanized, it becomes a thermosetting material and cannot be reshaped, thermally repaired, or reversibly recycled. The environmental problems caused by discarded rubber products have become a hot topic of global concern.
[0003] Thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) is a new type of elastomeric material that has the elasticity of rubber and the processability of thermoplastics, and has gradually become one of the important materials in the field of engineering applications. TPE has rigid segments (hard segments) and flexible segments (soft segments) in its molecular structure. The former mainly affects the elasticity, low-temperature performance, hardness, tear strength, modulus, etc. of the product; the latter produces mild chemical crosslinking and physical crosslinking due to hydrogen bonds between molecular chains and easy formation of crystalline regions. They are destroyed when heated or dissolved, and the polymer undergoes plastic flow, but returns to its original state after cooling. The manufacturing methods of thermoplastic rubber are generally divided into two types: physical crosslinking and chemical crosslinking. Physical crosslinking is to form a certain crosslinking structure by controlling the molecular structure of thermoplastic rubber during heating and cooling; chemical crosslinking is to form a crosslinking structure by adding a crosslinking agent to cause a chemical reaction in the material during heating.
[0004] Interpenetrating double network rubber is formed by two different rubber materials interlaced with each other. Its structure is more complex and has better performance.
[0005] How to prepare a thermoplastic rubber that can be repeatedly processed, recycled, and heat-repaired, and how to easily regulate the processing and mechanical properties of the thermoplastic rubber is a difficult problem to solve in the field of rubber materials. Summary of the invention
[0006] The present invention is to overcome the defects in the prior art and provide a thermoplastic interpenetrating double network rubber material, a preparation method and its application. To achieve the above invention object, the present invention is implemented by the following technical solutions:
[0007] In a first aspect, the present invention first provides a method for preparing a thermoplastic interpenetrating double network rubber material, comprising the following steps:
[0008] S.1. Preparation of a first network, preparing a polymer network by reacting a polymer precursor and a crosslinking agent;
[0009] S.1.1 First, a polymer precursor of the first network is prepared. The polydiene reactant is subjected to an epoxidation reaction with an epoxidation catalyst to epoxidize part of the double bonds on the main chain of polyisoprene to obtain epoxy polyisoprene. Then, in a tetrahydrofuran solvent, the epoxy unit in the epoxy polyisoprene is reacted with hydrochloric acid to introduce hydroxyl groups to obtain a poly(isoprene-r-3-chloro-2-methyl-2-butanol) random copolymer, i.e., polymer precursor 1. The precursor 1 is reacted with acryloyl chloride to introduce double bonds in the side groups to obtain precursor 2.
[0010] The precursor 2 described in S.1.2 reacts with the crosslinker 1 diborate crosslinker to obtain a first network composed of dynamic chemical bonds;
[0011] S.2. Preparation of the second network: The hydroxyl groups in the unreacted polymer precursor 1 in step S.1 react with the crosslinker 2, i.e., 2-hexylisocyanate ureido-4-methylpyrimidone (Upy-NCO), in which the isocyanate reacts with the hydroxyl groups to introduce ureidopyrimidone (Upy); since the preparation of the second network occurs in the first network, the first network and the second network in the system penetrate each other to form an interpenetrating double network, thereby obtaining a thermoplastic interpenetrating double network rubber material.
[0012] Preferably, the polydiene reactant in step S.1.1 is one or more of cis-polyisoprene, cis / trans-polyisoprene, natural rubber latex, and polybutadiene.
[0013] Preferably, the molecular weight of the polydiene in step S.1.1 is in the range of 20,000 to 200,000 g / mol.
[0014] Preferably, the epoxidation reaction catalyst in step S.1.1 is a peroxide, more preferably, m-chloroperbenzoic acid or benzoyl peroxide.
[0015] Preferably, the epoxidation catalyst is added in a molar ratio of 0.2 to 0.5:1 based on the molar number of double bonds in the polydiene reactant.
[0016] Preferably, in step S.1.1, the ratio of the number of moles of HCl in the hydrochloric acid to the number of moles of double bonds in the polydiene reactant is 0.05 to 0.5:1.
[0017] Preferably, in step S.1.1, the molar ratio of the added amount of acryloyl chloride to the precursor 1 is 10 to 100:1.
[0018] Preferably, the crosslinking agent in step S.1.2 is a diboric acid ester crosslinking agent. Optional crosslinking agents include: 1,4-phenylenediboronic acid propylthiol, 4,4′-biphenylenediboronic acid propylthiol or 4,4′-biphenylenediboronic acid propylthiol derivatives containing undecyl-N. Among them, the crosslinking agents shown in formula (A) and formula (B) are rigid molecules, and the crosslinking agent shown in formula (C) contains side chains, which can improve the flexibility of the network. The selection of different crosslinking agents and addition amounts can be used to regulate the mechanical properties of the network, such as modulus, strength, toughness, etc.
[0019]
[0020] Preferably, the molar ratio of crosslinker 1 to precursor 2 in step S.1.2 is 1.1 to 3. By adjusting the amount of crosslinker added, the balance of poly(isoprene-r-3-chloro-2-methyl-2-butanol) random copolymer, i.e., polymer precursor 1, can be adjusted.
[0021] Preferably, in step S.2, the molar ratio of the crosslinking agent 2 to the precursor 1 is 1 to 1.5:1.
[0022] In a second aspect, the present invention further provides a thermoplastic interpenetrating double network rubber material prepared by the preparation method of the first aspect of the present invention.
[0023] In a third aspect, the present invention further provides use of the thermoplastic interpenetrating double network rubber material according to the second aspect of the present invention for modifying a rubber material.
[0024] Preferably, the thermoplastic interpenetrating double network rubber material is blended, extruded or calendered, and vulcanized with synthetic rubber and / or natural rubber to prepare the modified rubber material.
[0025] Therefore, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0026] (1) The present invention starts from polyisoprene or polybutadiene, and the dynamic chemical bonds and multiple (including double, triple, and quadruple) hydrogen bonds used can each form crosslinking points. The former is a sparse flexible network, and the latter is a dense rigid network. The two form an interpenetrating network, balancing the rigidity and toughness of the material, achieving the repeatable processing, recycling, and thermal repairability of the rubber material, and then preparing a high-performance modified rubber material. At the same time, it can be used as a modified component for the modification of rubber materials to regulate their processing performance and mechanical properties.
[0027] (2) By regulating the chain length, epoxidation degree, and molar ratio of the crosslinking agent to the precursor of polyisoprene, the length of the crosslinked chain segment and the crosslinking density can be adjusted, thereby regulating the glass transition temperature, strength and toughness of the material, as well as the thermoplastic processing performance. The interpenetrating double network rubber material prepared by the present invention has viscoelastic and static mechanical properties comparable to those of high-grade natural rubber.
[0028] (3) The main chain structures of precursor 1 and precursor 2 in the interpenetrating double network structure of the present invention are the same. Therefore, the toughness and rigidity of network 1 and network 2 are regulated by the difference in density and dissociation activation energy between crosslinking point 1 and crosslinking point 2, as well as the difference in relaxation dynamics of the crosslinking points.
[0029] (3) The interpenetrating double network modified rubber material prepared by the present invention has a certain cross-linked structure and can be well dispersed and compatible with synthetic isoprene rubber, so it has a certain improvement on the extrusion swell of the rubber material.
