Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of impact-resistant coatings, and in particular to a hierarchical hydrogen bond and rigid segment reinforced polyurea and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] In the context of the increasingly complex global security environment, extreme events such as explosions pose challenges to military and civilian protection safety. Traditional protective measures are to use steel plates and reinforce building components and military equipment. However, in actual applications, the overall weight increases significantly, and the cost is high and the construction is difficult. As the requirements for efficient and lightweight impact-resistant protective structures become higher and higher, more and more polymer materials are being applied to the design in order to improve protection performance, reduce costs, and expand the scope of application. Therefore, the application of high-performance impact-resistant materials is of great significance to the field of protection.

[0003] With the development of spray polyurea elastomer technology, polyurea has become the research focus in the protection field due to its advantages such as impact resistance, fast curing, strong adhesion, adjustable performance and excellent dynamic mechanical response. Chinese patent CN116253983A "An impact-resistant polyurea elastomer composite material and its preparation method" discloses an impact-resistant polyurea elastomer composite material and its preparation method. The raw material components of the composite material, measured by the amount of substances, include 1 part polyurea elastomer, 1 part asphalt-based carbon fiber and 1 part polyacrylic acid side chain triphenylene liquid crystal. The raw material components of the polyurea elastomer include component A and component B; its preparation method includes: taking the raw materials of component A, mixing and heating to 60°C, stirring for 2 hours, and obtaining component A of the polyurea elastomer; taking the raw materials of component B, mixing and stirring at 50°C for 3 hours, and obtaining component B of the polyurea elastomer; spraying the component A and component B of the polyurea elastomer on the asphalt-based carbon fiber modified by the polyacrylic acid side chain triphenylene liquid crystal in proportion with a spray gun, and then continuing to cure at room temperature for 10 hours to obtain the impact-resistant polyurea elastomer composite material; the impact-resistant polyurea elastomer composite material of the invention has high impact resistance, high strength, and high elongation, and can resist shock waves and fragments generated by explosions. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct in-depth research on the application of polyurea in the field of impact resistance and to improve the strength and toughness of polyurea elastomers.

[0004] At present, in terms of improving the strength and toughness of polyurea elastomers, researchers believe that introducing multiple hydrogen bonds into the polyurea network is an effective way. Chinese patent CN117924649A "A method for preparing a hydrogen-bonded boron-containing supramolecular polyurea elastomer" discloses a method for preparing a hydrogen-bonded boron-containing supramolecular polyurea elastomer. Through segment design and synthesis process, a controllable molecular sequence of multiple hydrogen bonds and dynamic covalent bonds is constructed, which solves the problems of chaotic molecular structure and weakened mechanical properties of traditional cross-linked polyurea elastomers, while taking into account good thermoplastic reprocessing capabilities. However, in order to meet the needs of instantaneous high-energy impact protection, the strength and toughness of polyurea elastomers need to be further improved. Summary of the invention

[0045] The present invention is described in detail below through specific embodiments, but these exemplified uses and purposes are only used to illustrate the present invention and do not constitute any form of limitation on the actual protection scope of the present invention, and do not limit the protection scope of the present invention to these.

[0046] Example 1

[0047] This embodiment prepares hierarchical hydrogen bond and rigid segment reinforced polyurea, comprising the following steps:

[0048] S1. Add 16 parts of leveling agent, 16 parts of defoamer and 154 parts of MDI-100LL to a high-speed disperser and disperse at a speed of 1000 r / min for 1 min to obtain component A;

[0049] S2. 33 g of benzocaine and 100 g of polytetrahydrofuran diol (PTMG-1000) were dispersed in a three-necked flask, and 14.43 g of n-butanol was evenly dispersed in the resulting solution, and 0.12 g of tetrabutyl titanate was added dropwise under stirring. The reactant changed from milky white to yellow and eventually to yellowish brown. After 62 h, the reaction was completed to obtain benzocaine-modified polytetrahydrofuran, and 573 parts were taken to obtain component B;

[0050] S3. α-Acetyl-γ-butyrolactone (6.41 g) and guanidine carbonate (9.04 g) were stirred evenly in anhydrous ethanol (60 mL). Triethylamine (15.6 mL) was added and stirred and refluxed at 80 ° C for 12 hours, and the suspension was turbid yellow. After cooling, the pH was adjusted to 6-7 using HCl aqueous solution. After filtering, the solid was fully washed with ethanol and dried in an oven at 80 ° C for 9 hours to finally obtain a white powder 5-(2-hydroxyethyl)-6-methyl-2-aminouracil. Take 8 parts of 5-(2-hydroxyethyl)-6-methyl-2-aminouracil and 16 parts of N, N-dimethylformamide and mix them to obtain component C.

[0051] S4. Components B and C were dispersed at a high speed of 2000 r / min for 1 min, and then component A was added and dispersed at a high speed of 2000 r / min for 1 min. The mixture was then transferred to a polytetrafluoroethylene mold and cured at room temperature for 1 hour. The mixture was then transferred to an oven at 80°C and continued to cure for 12 hours to obtain a polyurea elastomer, which was recorded as APU-UPy-8.

[0052] Example 2

[0053] This example prepares hierarchical hydrogen bond and rigid segment reinforced polyurea, referring to Example 1. The difference from Example 1 is that in S1 of this example, the leveling agent of component A is 20 parts, the defoamer is 20 parts, and the MDI-100LL is 154 parts; the component C is 10 parts of 5-(2-hydroxyethyl)-6-methyl-2-aminouracil and 20 parts of N,N-dimethylformamide. The rest of the steps remain unchanged. The obtained polyurea elastomer is recorded as APU-UPy-10.

[0054] Example 3

[0055] This example prepares hierarchical hydrogen bond and rigid segment reinforced polyurea, referring to Example 1. The difference from Example 1 is that in S1 of this example, the leveling agent of component A is 24 parts, the defoamer is 24 parts, and the MDI-100LL is 154 parts; the component C is 12 parts of 5-(2-hydroxyethyl)-6-methyl-2-aminouracil and 24 parts of N,N-dimethylformamide. The rest of the steps remain unchanged. The obtained polyurea elastomer is recorded as APU-UPy-12.

[0056] Comparative Example 1

[0057] Referring to Example 1, the difference from the example is that the C component consisting of 5-(2-hydroxyethyl)-6-methyl-2-aminouracil and N,N-dimethylformamide is not added in this comparative example, and the other steps remain unchanged. The obtained product is recorded as APU-UPy-0.

[0058] Performance Test:

[0059] The mechanical property test results of the hierarchical hydrogen bond and rigid segment reinforced polyurea elastomers obtained in Examples 1-3 are shown in Table 1.

[0060] Table 1 Test results of mechanical properties of polyurea elastomer

[0061]

[0062] Figure 1 This is a graph of the tensile strength of the hierarchical hydrogen bond and rigid segment reinforced polyurea explosion-proof coatings prepared in Examples 1-3 of the present invention. Examples 1-3 correspond to samples APU-UPy-8, APU-UPy-10 and APU-UPy-12, respectively. Among them, the maximum tensile strength of APU-UPy-8 is as high as 50.25MPa, and the elongation at break is 1435.09%

[0063] Figure 2It is the puncture performance test graph of the polyurea elastomer and the unmodified blank sample in Example 1 of the present invention and the corresponding force and displacement curve. Example 1 corresponds to sample APU-UPy-8, and the unmodified sample corresponds to APU-UPy-0. The puncture needle with a diameter of 500μm is lowered at a rate of 5mm / min until the film sample with a thickness of 1mm is completely punctured. Compared with the APU-UPy-0 elastomer film, the APU-UPy-8 elastomer has significantly stronger puncture resistance. According to the obtained puncture force-displacement curve, it can be seen that the puncture force of the APU-UPy-8 elastomer is 94.05N, and the maximum displacement reaches 13.06mm. The puncture force of the APU-UPy-0 elastomer film is 89.39N, and the maximum displacement is only 10.72mm.

[0064] Figure 3 The composite plate formed by the polyurea elastomer and the steel plate in Example 1 of the present invention is damaged by a drop hammer impact. Example 1 corresponds to sample APU-UPy-8. The steel plate without polyurea coating forms a large through hole at the central impact point, and the surrounding steel plates are petal-shaped, showing obvious flipping, with the opening facing outward. The steel plate coated with polyurea limits the deformation of the steel plate and shows less damage.

[0065] Figure 4 The curve of the drop hammer impact force and time corresponding to the drop hammer impact test of the polyurea elastomer and the unmodified blank sample in Example 1 of the present invention. The presence of the polyurea coating significantly reduces the peak impact force and plays a buffering role. This is due to the good fluidity of the polymer chain and the energy dissipation by hydrogen bonding. The polyurea molecular chain changes from a curled state to an extended state and extends in the tensile direction, thereby dissipating energy. Among them, the peak impact force of APU-UPy-8 is lower than that of APU-UPy-0. More hydrogen bonds consume a large amount of impact energy in elastic deformation, which has a certain protective effect on the structure and shows a better impact protection effect.

[0066] Figure 5 The schematic diagram of the structure of the polyurea prepared in Examples 1-3 with hierarchical hydrogen bonds and rigid segment reinforcement; Figure 6 This is an explanatory diagram of hierarchical hydrogen bonding. Figure 5 It can be seen that the prepared polyurea has an enhanced rigid segment. The graded hydrogen bonds are that the prepared polyurea has weak hydrogen bonds and strong hydrogen bonds. The graded hydrogen bonds are graded according to their strength.

[0067] The series of detailed descriptions listed above are only specific descriptions of feasible embodiments of the present invention. They are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. All equivalent embodiments or changes that do not deviate from the technical spirit of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
