Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of anti-icing gel, in particular to a cross-linked polyethylene glycol-based anti-icing gel coating, an anti-icing gel and a preparation method. BACKGROUND

[0002] When water vapor in the air contacts the surface of a material with a temperature lower than the freezing point, phase change occurs to form frost. Ice formation in a low-temperature environment seriously affects the operation and safety of equipment and causes significant losses to the national economy, for example, ice formation on the surface of refrigeration equipment can reduce the heat transfer efficiency of the equipment or even cause it to fail, and ice formation on the surface of an aircraft can change the aerodynamic shape of the aircraft and affect flight safety.

[0003] Currently, common anti-icing methods mainly include active anti-icing and passive anti-icing, wherein active anti-icing refers to removing ice crystals from the surface of an object by means of electric heating, vibration or the like to prevent the ice layer from thickening, but this method has low efficiency and high cost. Passive anti-icing refers to changing the properties of the surface of an object by means of an anti-icing material to prevent the formation and adhesion of ice crystals.

[0004] Organic gels have been developed in recent years as a strategy for reducing ice adhesion because the liquid small molecules introduced therein have low surface energy and are easy to shear, which can effectively reduce the adhesion of ice. However, current anti-icing gels lack intelligent response capability, and the liquid small molecules in the gel cannot be actively migrated, and how to make the liquid small molecules in the gel actively migrate to the surface to resist ice under icing conditions is still a major challenge in the field.

[0070] Performance test

[0071] Performance test:

[0072] 1. Reversible release performance test

[0073] Figure 1 For the anti-icing gel of Example 1, the anti-icing agent reversible release performance demonstration figure, according to Figure 1 It can be seen that the anti-icing gel of the present application has a reversible release of anti-icing agent performance.

[0074] 2. Quantitative test of release performance

[0075] The weighing method is used to test the mass of polyglycol released on the interface of the anti-icing gel at different temperatures, and then the mass percentage of the total polyglycol is calculated, that is, the secretion efficiency. The specific test method is: weigh the mass of the anti-icing gel sample, denoted as m0, then the total polyglycol mass M in the sample is m0xw, wherein w is the mass percentage of polyglycol in the anti-icing gel, the calculation method is: w = m 防 / m 总 x 100%, wherein m 防 represents the mass of the anti-icing agent, and m 总 represents the total mass of the anti-icing agent and the polyethylene glycol alkenyl polymer. Then place the anti-icing gel sample at the release temperature for 12 h, and then remove the polyglycol released on the interface with non-woven fabric, and weigh the remaining mass as m1; the mass of the polyglycol released on the surface is m0-m1; the secretion efficiency is (m0-m1) / (m0xw).

[0076] Figure 2 For the secretion efficiency of the gel obtained from Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 with temperature, wherein PEG1000 represents the anti-icing gel prepared in Example 1, and PEG4000 represents the gel prepared in Comparative Example 1. According to Figure 2 It can be seen that the release temperature range of triethylene glycol is related to the molecular weight of polyethylene glycol alkenyl polymer. When synthesizing polyethylene glycol diallyl formamide, the molecular weight of polyethylene glycol is lower (M wWhen the molecular weight of the polyethylene glycol is 1000, the anti-icing gel begins to release triethylene glycol at about 0℃, and the release amount first increases and then decreases with the decrease of temperature; when the molecular weight of the polyethylene glycol is 4000, the anti-icing gel begins to release triethylene glycol at above 0℃; the above contents show that the anti-icing gel prepared by using the polyethylene glycol alkylene polymer with low molecular weight is suitable for the working condition of anti-icing, and can realize intelligent anti-icing. w When the molecular weight of the polyethylene glycol is 1000, the anti-icing gel begins to release triethylene glycol at about 0℃, and the release amount first increases and then decreases with the decrease of temperature; when the molecular weight of the polyethylene glycol is 4000, the anti-icing gel begins to release triethylene glycol at above 0℃; the above contents show that the anti-icing gel prepared by using the polyethylene glycol alkylene polymer with low molecular weight is suitable for the working condition of anti-icing, and can realize intelligent anti-icing.

[0077] 3. Anti-icing adhesion performance test

[0078] Test method one: ice blocks are placed on the anti-icing gel sample with a size of 2cm*2cm, and then placed in a low-temperature environment at-20℃, and the ice adhesion is tested after 24h.

[0079] Test method two: the anti-icing gel sample is placed at-20℃ for 24h, and then ice blocks are placed thereon to test the ice adhesion.

[0080] Figure 3 The anti-icing adhesion performance test results of the gels obtained in Example 1 and Comparative Example 3, Figure 3 CPEG / 3EG is the anti-icing gel prepared in Example 1, and CPEG is the gel prepared in Example 3; according to the test method one, the ice adhesion of the gel prepared in Example 1 is about 3kPa, and the ice adhesion of the gel prepared in Comparative Example 3 is more than 110kPa. Figure 3 It can be seen that the anti-icing gel prepared in Example 1 has low ice adhesion under the two test methods, and the ice adhesion under the first test method is about 3kPa, and the ice adhesion under the second test method is about 7kPa; and the ice adhesion of the gel prepared in Comparative Example 3 reaches more than 110kPa.

[0081] 4. Delayed frosting performance test

[0082] The anti-icing gel sample is placed on a cold table at-20℃, and water mist is continuously sprayed by an air humidifier, the water mist can be condensed to frost on the surface of the sample, and the frosting performance of the sample is observed.

[0083] Figure 4 The delayed frosting performance test results of the gels prepared in Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, wherein CPEG / 3EG is the anti-icing gel prepared in Example 1, and CPEG is the gel prepared in Example 3. The test results show that the gel prepared in Comparative Example 3 is completely covered with frost on the surface after being placed in a high-humidity environment at-20℃ for 8min. The anti-icing gel in Example 1 does not have surface frost within 8min. After removing the water deposited on the surface of the sample and the released glycol, the frosting performance is tested again, a small amount of frost appears on the edge of the sample in Example 1, because the triethylene glycol in the system is consumed, at this time, the triethylene glycol is supplemented in a swelling manner, and the sample regains the ability of delayed frosting, and obvious frosting can be observed on the sample after being placed in a high-humidity environment at-20℃ for 15min.

[0084] The anti-icing gels prepared in Examples 2 and 3 were subjected to reversible release performance testing, release performance quantitative testing, anti-icing adhesion performance testing, and delay frosting performance testing, and exhibited similar effects to Example 1.
