Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of coating layers, and particularly to an anti-fog coating for vehicle-mounted cameras and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of road traffic vehicles in recent years, especially the motor vehicle industries such as new energy vehicles and trains, the development of vehicle-mounted cameras has shown a rapid trend in recent years. And with the continuous progress of driverless technologies, including the full-automatic operation technologies of train vehicles with high automation levels such as GoA3 and GoA4, vehicle-mounted cameras have become one of the key sensors. Whether in rainy days, snowy days, foggy days or at night, road traffic vehicles, including driverless cars and urban rail transit trains, will need to rely on advanced sensors with cameras, such as anti-collision image sensors, speed measurement sensors, pantograph monitoring, and intelligent algorithms to perceive and analyze environmental information to make decisions to achieve better safe operation conditions. Therefore, these sensors are crucial for accurately detecting obstacles and road conditions during the driving of urban rail transit trains and driverless vehicles, enabling vehicles such as trains and cars to drive safely.

[0003] The problem of fogging on vehicle-mounted cameras has an obvious impact on the driverless systems of vehicles and the urban rail transit signal systems. First of all, fogging will lead to a decline in the image quality of the camera, restricting the perception ability of the driverless system for environmental information such as roads, signs, and obstacles, and restricting the monitoring ability of the full-automatic operation system of the train for the environmental information beside the track and the operation conditions of train equipment, which may lead to misjudgment and delayed decision-making, increasing the risk of accidents. Secondly, the difficulty of object detection is a problem. After the camera fogs up, the edges and details cannot be clearly recognized, affecting the object detection and recognition ability, and thus affecting the decision-making and obstacle avoidance ability of driverless train vehicles or car vehicles. Therefore, ensuring the cleanliness and normal working state of vehicle-mounted cameras and adopting appropriate anti-fog measures are important means to ensure the safety and reliability of driverless systems such as trains and cars. As a technical means that can effectively ensure the cleanliness of vehicle-mounted cameras, the anti-fog coating for vehicle-mounted cameras has received extensive attention in recent years. It can effectively achieve the sealing, humidity control, and protection of vehicle-mounted cameras, effectively reducing the possibility of fogging inside and outside the camera to ensure the reliability and clarity of the camera.

[0027] As a preferred embodiment, the average particle size of the calcium carbonate is 200 to 300 nm.

[0028] As a preferred embodiment, the method for preparing the modified composite particles comprises the following steps: S1: Add aluminum chloride and titanium dioxide into DMF, perform ultrasonic dispersion for 20 - 30 min at 200 - 250 W, then add citric acid, succinic anhydride and methacryloxy silane coupling agent, raise the temperature to 60 - 70 °C and keep warm for 2 - 3 h, perform centrifugal filtration, wash and dry to obtain pretreated mixed particles; S2: Add the pretreated mixed particles into a mixed solvent of DMF and methanol, add p-aminobenzoic acid and terephthalic acid, stir and react in a sealed reaction kettle at 120 - 140 °C and a rotation speed of 200 - 240 rpm for 16 - 20 h, naturally cool to room temperature after the reaction is completed, perform centrifugal filtration, wash 2 - 3 times in sequence with DMF and methanol in a circulating manner, and dry in vacuum to obtain pre-product particles; S3: Add the pre-product particles and ethanol into deionized water, adjust the pH to 10 - 10.5 with ammonia water, add tetraethyl orthosilicate and triethanolamine, raise the temperature to 60 - 65 °C and keep warm for 1 - 1.5 h, after completion, wash 2 - 3 times with deionized water in a circulating manner, and dry in vacuum to obtain the product.

[0034] As a preferred embodiment, the average particle size of the modified composite particles is 420 - 550 nm.

[0035] In this application, the addition of the above-mentioned modified composite particles can effectively improve the high-temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, mechanical and other properties of the anti-fog coating. In particular, it can maintain good performance stability in a long-term high-temperature and high-humidity environment and continuously maintain excellent anti-condensation effect at room temperature. The modified composite particles prepared in this application coordinate and embed titanium dioxide particles on the surface of the adsorption framework particles, thereby forming a composite structure with multiple titanium dioxide particles coating the framework particles. The existence of this structure can first utilize the multiple active groups on the surface of titanium dioxide to form good hydrogen bonds or intermolecular force fixing effects with the organic resin in the coating system, and then achieve its good dispersion effect, reduce the pore diameter of the particles, provide good support for the mechanical properties of the coating system, and ensure a good action environment system for other functions.

[0036] Secondly, the formed composite structure can use the surface titanium dioxide as a good guiding carrier. At room temperature, it can be a good guiding carrier for water molecules. When inside the coating, it can assist in absorbing the water molecules inside the coating. When on the surface, while adsorbing water molecules, it can form a rough continuous peak-valley structure on the coating surface, thereby greatly increasing the surface energy of the coating, effectively enhancing the aggregation of water molecules on the coating surface, and increasing the probability of forming a continuous hydrated layer on the coating surface.

[0037] Finally, the framework particles located at the center of the composite structure can desorb water molecules at high temperatures through amino groups and their own adsorption characteristics, so as to maintain a low moisture absorption level in a high-temperature and high-humidity environment. When the environmental temperature drops below the critical temperature, excellent water molecule adsorption can be realized again, thereby avoiding the phenomenon of moisture absorption saturation of the existing anti-fog coating in a high-temperature and high-humidity environment.

[0038] As a preferred scheme, the cross-linking monomer is styrene.

[0039] As a preferred scheme, the cross-linking aid is a composition of tetramethylol glycoluril and 1,3-bis(oxiranylmethyl)-5-(2-propenyl)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)-trione.

[0041] As a preferred scheme, the mass ratio of tetramethylol glycoluril to 1,3-bis(oxiranylmethyl)-5-(2-propenyl)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)-trione is (3.4 - 3.8):(1.6 - 1.8).

[0042] In this application, by using the above-mentioned specific crosslinking monomers, the compounding of resin materials such as crosslinking aids and hyperbranched polyurethane acrylate resins can effectively improve the anti-fogging, corrosion resistance and mechanical properties of the prepared coating. The combination of crosslinking aids of tetramethylol glycoluril and 1,3-bis(oxiranylmethyl)-5-(2-propenyl)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)-trione added in this application can effectively serve as the active molecular chain sites in the styrene-acrylate crosslinking reaction in the system, and then enhance the entanglement degree of the crosslinking sites inside the system after the coating is cured, realize the high-molecular chain intercalation with hyperbranched polyurethane acrylate, and then greatly enhance the intermolecular interaction force between the three-dimensional molecular chain networks inside the coating system, further enhancing the intermolecular tightness, improving the enhancement effect of the humidity control powder and filler particles on the internal steric hindrance, and finally greatly reducing the migration efficiency of water molecules and free active groups in the coating, increasing the penetration resistance and path length of water molecules or active molecules carried by water molecules, and maintaining good anti-fogging and anti-aging corrosion effects.

[0043] On the other hand, the multi-active group structures contained in the added tetramethylol glycoluril and hyperbranched polyurethane acrylate can serve as excellent carriers for the humidity control powder and modified fillers during the formation of the coating system. Especially for the hydrogen bond action and intermolecular attraction on the surface of the modified composite particles and some hygroscopic powders, it can effectively enhance the interaction force between the particles and the resin in the coating, playing a good connection and fixing effect, thereby greatly reducing the pore diameter of the micropores formed by the powder particles and filler particles in the coating system, and then avoiding the negative impact of too large pore diameter on the mechanical properties and anti-fogging properties, and obtaining excellent anti-fogging and anti-aging corrosion assistance enhancement effects.

[0122] From the data results of the examples, comparative examples, and Table 1 of this application, it can be seen that Examples 1-3 of this application have obvious advantages over Comparative Examples 1-8 in terms of adhesion performance, anti-fog performance, high temperature resistance, and corrosion and aging resistance. This is mainly because of the combined action of the defined resin materials, defined crosslinking system solutions, modified composite particles, and other matching solutions added in this application. In contrast, Comparative Examples 1-8 did not adopt the technical solutions defined in this application, resulting in obvious disadvantages in the above performance tests. This further proves the necessity of the defined technical solutions of this application for the technical effects and solving technical problems of this application.
