Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a perfluoroether raw rubber latex, a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Perfluoroether rubber is a multi-polymer made of tetrafluoroethylene, perfluoroalkyl vinyl ether and other monomers, and is known as the "king of rubber". The main chain structure of this rubber is TFE structural unit. Since the radius of the fluorine atom is half the length of the "CC" bond, its main chain has the excellent properties of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) in terms of high temperature resistance and chemical resistance, and the side chain contains -OCF 3 The groups destroy the crystallinity of the main chain segments of polytetrafluoroethylene, making it have a certain elasticity and can be used in the field of elastic sealing.

[0003] This type of rubber has good resistance to oils, chemicals and high temperatures, and can be as high as 327 o It can withstand corrosion from almost all chemical media, including ethers, ketones, benzene ring solvents, strong oxidants, strong acids and alkalis (currently known to be resistant to 1,600 solvents except fluorinated solvents), but it will swell against some high-fluorocarbon solvents. If it comes into contact with gaseous or molten alkali metals, there is a risk of causing violent chemical reactions.

[0004] The high bond energy of CF bond is the main reason for the high stability of perfluoroether rubber. The high temperature compression permanent deformation performance of perfluoroether rubber is better than other fluororubbers. The excellent properties of perfluoroether rubber are widely used in many fields such as aerospace, petrochemical, atomic energy, semiconductor manufacturing, medicine, food and office equipment.

[0005] In addition to being related to the molecular structure, the performance of perfluoroether rubber is closely related to its cross-linking structure. Ordinary peroxide-cured perfluoroether rubber is mainly used in strong medium environments, and the high temperature use temperature is 230 o In the early 21st century, Italy's Solvay Company developed a high-temperature resistant perfluoroether vulcanization agent that can be cross-linked by peroxide, which improved the medium resistance and high temperature resistance of PFR95HT perfluoroether rubber, and the maximum operating temperature can reach 300 o C or above. After cyanide-cured perfluoroether rubber uses amine vulcanizers or generates triazine structures between macromolecules, the maximum operating temperature can reach 325 o C, such as the Kalrez series products of DuPont Company in the United States.

[0006] With the rapid development of my country's aerospace and high-end equipment manufacturing industries, the domestic demand for high-performance perfluoroether rubber applications has increased year by year. However, the perfluoroether rubber composite materials and products in the domestic market are mainly from DuPont in the United States, Solvay in Italy, Daikin in Japan, and well-known foreign seal suppliers Freudenberg-NOK, Parker, PPE in the United Kingdom, and Greene Tweed in the United States. DuPont's perfluoroether rubber is still the industry benchmark in the world. Its perfluoroether materials have a wide variety and coverage, and can be used in different temperatures and different media.

[0007] Nowadays, most of the research and development of domestic perfluoroether rubber focuses on the performance of materials, such as resistance to 280 o C. 300 o C and more than 300 o All perfluoroether varieties of C are under development, and there is no mature process yet. There are few reports on the emulsion polymerization mechanism of fluorinated monomers and the process of synthetic raw rubber. Therefore, it is urgent for us to conduct in-depth research on the emulsion copolymerization of fluorinated monomers, explore the copolymerization rules of gas-liquid two-phase fluorinated monomers, and synthesize high temperature resistant (325 o C) provides the core technology key and foundation for the development of high-performance fluoroether rubber.

[0047] (2) When the pressure of the reaction system drops by 0.2 MPa, the first-stage mixed monomer is added to maintain the pressure of the reaction system at 2.4-2.6 MPa until the polymerization reaction reaches 44-48% of the final yield. During this process, the initiator is added in batches every 20-25 minutes, and the mass ratio of the added initiator to the aqueous medium is (0.03-0.05):100; the polymerization reaction is maintained;

[0048] (3) The initial mixed monomers are introduced again to make the reaction pressure reach 2.7-2.9 MPa, and the second batch of initiators are added, the mass ratio of the amount of the second batch of initiators added to the water medium is (0.06-0.15):100, and polymerization is carried out.

[0079] The organic phase was extracted and stored in a plastic bottle at a concentration of 0.86 mmol / mL in a refrigerator.

[0080] Example 1

[0081] This embodiment provides a perfluoroether rubber, and the specific preparation method is as follows:

[0082] 3 kg of deionized water was added to a 5 L reactor with a stirring device. Before the experiment, the activated reactor and the gas and liquid pipes connecting the reactor body were vacuumed, and the pipes and reactor body were purged with nitrogen. Then, the initial mixed monomers of tetrafluoroethylene TFE / perfluoromethyl vinyl ether PMVE = 40 / 60 (molar ratio) were introduced into the reactor using a diaphragm compressor to replace the nitrogen and make the oxygen content in the reactor less than 30 ppm.

[0083] Turn on the electromagnetic stirrer, set the heating temperature, and start stirring and heating the system. The mechanical stirring rate is 700 rpm. When the liquid temperature in the kettle stabilizes at 80 oC, the initial mixed monomer TFE / PMVE=40 / 60 (molar ratio) pre-packed in proportion was pressed into the reactor by a diaphragm compression pump, so that the pressure of the reactor reached 2.5 Mpa, and the reaction pressure was controlled well. 3 g of initiator ammonium persulfate (2M, aqueous solution) was injected into the reactor to start polymerization. 0.6 g of emulsifier, which was a mixture of perfluoropolyether peroxide and sodium octyl sulfonate in a mass ratio of 1:1, as well as 1.5 g of pH regulator disodium hydrogen phosphate and 3 g of chain transfer agent 1,6-perfluorohexyl diiodide (CAS: 375-80-4) were added, and heated to 80 o C.

[0084] The experiment adopted a continuous emulsion copolymerization scheme. As the polymerization proceeded, the mixed monomers of the first reaction stage were added to the original pressure every time the system pressure dropped by 0.2 Mpa. The mixed monomers of the first reaction stage TFE / PMVE / 8-CNVE=61 / 38 / 1 (molar ratio) were added to the reactor through a diaphragm compression pump to maintain a constant pressure in the reactor; and 1 g of initiator potassium persulfate was added every 20 min to maintain the effective reaction. After 3 hours of polymerization, the second reaction stage was entered, and the addition of the mixed monomers of the first reaction stage was stopped, and the unreacted monomers in the reactor were recovered.

[0085] Then, the initial mixed monomer TFE / PMVE=40 / 60 (molar ratio) was introduced into the reactor, and when the pressure in the reactor reached 2.8 MPa, 2 g of initiator potassium persulfate was added to carry out polymerization reaction. The mixed monomer TFE / PMVE / 8-CNVE / PAVE=61 / 18 / 1 / 20 (molar ratio) of the second reaction stage was continuously introduced, and during the polymerization reaction, 1 g of initiator potassium persulfate was added every 20 min to maintain the reaction for five hours. Among them, PAVE (perfluorooxyalkyl vinyl ether) is perfluoromethoxypropyl vinyl ether (CAS: 40573-09-9).

[0086] During the polymerization process, it is necessary to pay attention to the changes in the system temperature. Especially for monomers with strong reaction activity, a moderate amount of heat will be released during the emulsion polymerization. If it is not controlled in time, it will cause local overheating, accelerate the decomposition of the initiator, and even cause "explosion". Therefore, it is necessary to control and record the reaction temperature at all times. In addition, during the experiment, it is necessary to accurately record the changes in the pressure in the system over time. After the second stage of the reaction is completed, stop adding the mixed monomers. When the system pressure drops to 1.9MPa, stop stirring. Wait until it cools to a safe temperature and start discharging. Recover the unreacted monomers in the reactor. The materials flowing out of the coil reactor enter the product collection device to obtain perfluoroether raw rubber latex. Add 5%wt magnesium chloride to the prepared perfluoroether raw rubber latex for condensation, then wash, and then heat at 95 oC and dried under vacuum for 24 h to obtain 1.3 kg of perfluoroether raw rubber product.

[0087] The percentage of the mass of the product at the completion of the first stage reaction to the mass of the product at the completion of the second stage reaction is 47%.

[0088] Example 2

Then, the initial mixed monomers of tetrafluoroethylene TFE / perfluoromethyl vinyl ether PMVE = 45 / 55 (molar ratio) were introduced into the reactor using a diaphragm compressor to replace the nitrogen and make the oxygen content in the reactor less than 30 ppm.

[0091] Turn on the electromagnetic stirrer, set the heating temperature, and start stirring and heating the system. The mechanical stirring rate is 700 rpm. When the liquid temperature in the kettle stabilizes at 85 o C, the initial mixed monomer TFE / PMVE=45 / 55 (molar ratio) pre-packed in proportion was pressed into the reactor by a diaphragm compression pump, so that the pressure of the reactor reached 2.6 Mpa, and the reaction pressure was controlled well. 3 g of initiator ammonium persulfate (2M aqueous solution) was injected into the reactor to start polymerization. 0.7 g of emulsifier, which was a mixture of perfluoropolyether peroxide and sodium octyl sulfonate in a mass ratio of 1:1, as well as 2 g of disodium hydrogen phosphate as a pH adjuster and 4 g of 1,6-perfluorohexyl diiodide as a chain transfer agent were added, and heated to 85 o C.

[0092] The experiment adopted a continuous emulsion copolymerization scheme. As the polymerization proceeded, the mixed monomers of the first reaction stage were added to the original pressure every time the system pressure dropped by 0.2 Mpa. The mixed monomers of the first reaction stage TFE / PMVE / 8-CNVE=65 / 34 / 1 (molar ratio) were added to the reactor through a diaphragm compression pump to maintain a constant pressure in the reactor; and 1 g of initiator potassium persulfate was added every 20 min to maintain the effective reaction. After 3 hours of polymerization, the second reaction stage was entered, and the addition of the mixed monomers of the first reaction stage was stopped, and the unreacted monomers in the reactor were recovered.

[0093] Then, the initial mixed monomer TFE / PMVE=45 / 55 (molar ratio) was introduced into the reactor, and when the pressure in the reactor reached 2.8 MPa, 2 g of initiator potassium persulfate was added to carry out polymerization reaction. The mixed monomer TFE / PMVE / 8-CNVE / PAVE=65 / 20 / 1 / 14 (molar ratio) of the second reaction stage was continuously introduced, and during the polymerization reaction, 1.5 g of initiator potassium persulfate was added every 20 min to maintain the reaction for five hours. Among them, PAVE (perfluorooxyalkyl vinyl ether) is perfluoromethoxypropyl vinyl ether.

[0094] During the polymerization process, it is necessary to pay attention to the changes in the system temperature. Especially for monomers with strong reaction activity, there will be a moderate amount of heat release during the emulsion polymerization. If it is not controlled in time, it will cause local overheating, accelerate the decomposition of the initiator, and even cause "explosion". Therefore, it is necessary to control and record the reaction temperature at all times. In addition, the pressure changes in the system over time must be accurately recorded during the experiment. After the second stage of the reaction is completed, stop adding the mixed monomers. When the system pressure drops to 1.9MPa, stop stirring. Wait until it cools to a safe temperature and start discharging. Recover the unreacted monomers in the reactor. The material flowing out of the coil reactor enters the product collection device to obtain a perfluoroether rubber latex.

[0095] 5%wt magnesium chloride was added to the obtained perfluoroether rubber latex for coagulation, followed by washing and then heating at 95 o C and dried under vacuum for 24 h to obtain 1.4 kg of perfluoroether raw rubber product.

[0096] The percentage of the mass of the product at the completion of the first stage reaction to the mass of the product at the completion of the second stage reaction is 48%.

Continue to introduce the mixed monomer TFE / PMVE / 8-CNVE / PAVE=70 / 18 / 2 / 10 (molar ratio), and during the polymerization reaction, add 1.5 g of initiator potassium persulfate every 25 min to maintain the reaction for five hours. PAVE (perfluorooxyalkyl vinyl ether) is perfluoromethoxypropyl vinyl ether.
