Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of natural rubber processing and application, and specifically relates to a natural rubber coagulation system, natural rubber and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] The sidewall rubber is located on the outer cord layer of the tire, and its main function is to protect the tire body from mechanical damage, atmospheric effects and humid environment. Since the sidewall rubber is often under periodic flexion and deformation, and is eroded by oxygen, ozone and ultraviolet rays in the atmosphere, it needs to have excellent flexion resistance and aging resistance. These properties ensure that the tire can maintain good elasticity and durability during long-term use, thereby ensuring driving safety. However, special vehicle tires used in tropical areas have short driving time and long parking time. They are exposed to the outdoors under compression conditions all year round, and are eroded by sunlight, thermal oxygen and ozone, resulting in aging and cracking.

[0003] In order to solve the above-mentioned problem that the tire sidewall is not resistant to aging during long-term use in tropical areas, either excellent antioxidants with different ratios are used to extend the aging period, or protective coatings are applied to the sidewalls to protect the sidewalls from erosion by media such as heat oxygen, sunlight, and ozone. However, these methods cannot fundamentally solve the aging problem due to the lack of resistance to extraction or coating shedding. Summary of the invention

[0024] The invention provides a natural rubber coagulation system, comprising a choline compound and an organic acid; the mass ratio of the choline compound to the organic acid is (0.1-0.2): (0.1-0.2).

[0025] In the present invention, unless otherwise specified, all preparation raw materials / components are commercially available products well known to those skilled in the art.

[0026] The natural rubber coagulation system provided by the present invention comprises a choline compound. In the present invention, the choline compound preferably comprises choline bitartrate and / or choline dihydrogen citrate.

[0027] The natural rubber coagulation system provided by the present invention comprises an organic acid. In the present invention, the organic acid preferably comprises citric acid and / or malic acid.

[0028] In the present invention, the mass ratio of the choline compound to the organic acid is (0.1-0.2):(0.1-0.2), preferably 1:1.

[0029] The present invention provides the application of the natural rubber coagulation system described in the above technical solution in the preparation of natural rubber. The present invention has found that the physical properties of natural rubber obtained by coagulating the traditional natural rubber coagulant (i.e., formic acid) are poor and fail to meet the requirements of high-end rubber indicators (including tensile strength, elongation at break, tear strength, and compression fatigue temperature rise); and formic acid is highly corrosive and has a pungent taste, which not only corrodes equipment but is also detrimental to physical and mental health. Therefore, the natural rubber coagulation system provided by the present invention uses natural organic acids (preferably citric acid and / or malic acid) to replace formic acid (the acidity of citric acid and malic acid is equivalent to that of formic acid), which is green and environmentally friendly. The organic acid H in the natural rubber coagulation system provided by the present invention is + It can not only reduce the pH value of natural latex, but also be used by bacteria to promote the formation of volatile fatty acids and accelerate the coagulation of natural latex. At the same time, choline compounds and organic acids are also used in the natural rubber coagulation system. Choline compounds have good solubility in natural latex, and can react with phospholipids in natural latex at normal temperature and pressure to destroy the stability of rubber particles in natural latex, so that natural latex is coagulated, and the coagulation efficiency of Tiane'an latex is improved. Therefore, the natural rubber coagulation system provided by the present invention uses natural chemical reactions to coagulate natural latex, which is non-toxic and safe, does not add corrosive acids, has high coagulation efficiency and is green and environmentally friendly; more importantly, it does not destroy the molecular structure of rubber hydrocarbons, greatly improving the strength and anti-aging effect of the natural effect.

[0030] The present invention provides a method for preparing natural rubber, comprising the following steps:

[0031] Mixing natural latex and water to obtain diluted latex;

[0032] Mixing the natural rubber coagulation system described in the above technical solution with water to obtain a coagulant solution;

[0033] The diluted latex and the coagulant solution are mixed and aged to obtain the natural rubber.

[0034] The present invention mixes natural latex and water to obtain diluted latex. In the present invention, the natural latex is preferably fresh natural latex. The natural latex preferably contains fats, sterols, phospholipids, etc., all of which are insoluble in water and adsorbed on the surface of rubber particles. The mass of lipids in the natural latex preferably accounts for about 1% of the mass of the natural latex, of which 0.6% is phospholipids. Phospholipids are long-chain fatty acid esters of glycerophosphate with high surface activity. The phosphate groups of the phospholipids in the natural latex can undergo esterification reaction with the choline compounds in the natural rubber coagulation system. The choline compounds in the above-mentioned natural rubber coagulation system provided by the present invention react with the phospholipids in the natural latex to destroy the stability of the rubber particles in the natural latex and coagulate the natural latex; on the other hand, the choline compounds are present in the natural rubber obtained after coagulation, which can not only accelerate the vulcanization of the natural rubber but also have an anti-aging effect on the natural rubber.

[0035] In the present invention, the natural latex is gel-free; the ammonia content in the natural latex is preferably less than 0.05wt%. The dry rubber content of the natural latex is preferably 30wt%. The dry rubber content of the diluted latex is preferably 23-25wt%. In the present invention, the mixing of the natural latex and water is preferably carried out in a mixing tank.

[0036] The present invention mixes the natural rubber coagulation system described in the above technical solution with water to obtain a coagulant solution. In the present invention, the mixing of the natural rubber coagulation system and water is preferably carried out in an acid pool. In the present invention, the mass of the choline compound in the natural rubber coagulation system preferably accounts for 0.1-0.2% of the mass of the dry rubber in the natural latex, and can be 0.1% in the embodiment. The mass of the organic acid in the natural rubber coagulation system preferably accounts for 0.1-0.2% of the mass of the dry rubber in the natural latex, and can be 0.1% in the embodiment. The present invention has no special requirements for the amount of water used when the natural rubber coagulation system and water are mixed. The mass of the choline compound and the organic acid in the natural rubber coagulation system provided by the present invention accounts for the mass of the dry rubber in the natural latex. The mass ratio cannot be too large or too small. When the amount is too large, it is easy to cause the natural latex to coagulate too fast, and the hardness of the obtained clot is too high, which is not conducive to subsequent dehydration and drying; when the amount is too small, the mechanical properties of the obtained natural rubber are poor. Therefore, under the premise of ensuring the coagulation, dehydration and drying effects of natural latex, the performance of the obtained natural rubber, cost control, and reduction of raw material waste are considered at the same time, and the mass proportion of the above-mentioned suitable natural rubber coagulation system is adopted.

[0037] After obtaining the diluted latex and the coagulant solution, the present invention mixes the diluted latex and the coagulant solution for aging to obtain the natural rubber. In the present invention, the mixing of the diluted latex and the coagulant solution preferably includes: mixing the diluted latex and the coagulant solution in a parallel flow manner. The mixing of the diluted latex and the coagulant solution is preferably carried out in a coagulation tank. In an embodiment of the present invention, the diluted latex and the coagulant solution are injected into the coagulation tank in a parallel flow manner. When the diluted latex and the coagulant solution are in parallel flow, they start to be injected into the coagulation tank at the same time, and the injection is completed at the same time. The aging time is preferably 8 to 12 hours, and can be 10 hours in the embodiment. The aging time is calculated from the moment when the diluted latex and the coagulant solvent are completely injected into the coagulation tank at the same time.

[0038] In the present invention, after the aging is completed, a coagulated product is obtained, and the present invention preferably further comprises: dehydrating and drying the coagulated product in sequence to obtain the natural rubber. The dehydration preferably comprises: thinning dehydration and crepe dehydration in sequence. The aging process is the coagulation process of the natural latex.
