Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of polymer material preparation, in particular to a weather-resistant waterproof coiled material based on modified polyolefin and a manufacturing process thereof. Background Art

[0002] Modified polyolefin weather-resistant waterproofing membrane is a high-performance building material primarily used for waterproofing projects such as building roofs, basements, tunnels, and reservoirs. With the acceleration of urbanization and the continuous expansion of infrastructure construction, the performance requirements for building waterproofing materials are becoming increasingly stringent, especially in terms of weather resistance. Polyolefin materials, such as polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP), are widely used in the waterproofing membrane field due to their advantages such as light weight, corrosion resistance, and easy processing. However, conventional polyolefin materials suffer from insufficient weather resistance and poor aging resistance. Prolonged exposure to outdoor environments can easily be affected by factors such as ultraviolet rays, temperature fluctuations, and chemical media, leading to a decline in material performance, which in turn affects the waterproofing effect and service life.

[0003] Currently, modification techniques are commonly used to improve the weather resistance of polyolefin waterproofing membranes, such as adding stabilizers, antioxidants, UV absorbers, and light stabilizers. These additives effectively absorb UV rays, preventing photodegradation of the material while also inhibiting oxidation reactions, thereby improving the thermal and chemical stability of the material. Furthermore, polyolefins are inherently flammable, so to meet building safety regulations, chemical or physical modification is often required to enhance their flame retardancy.

[0004] In summary, the present invention prepares a weather-resistant waterproof membrane based on modified polyolefin. Summary of the Invention
