Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of flame retardant coatings, and in particular relates to a multi-component synergistic flame retardant modified coating and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] As a material that can curb the spread of fire, flame retardant coatings have been widely used in many fields. According to statistics, more than 80% of fatalities caused by fires are caused by thick smoke and toxic gases released by burning materials. Therefore, flame retardant coatings must not only have excellent flame retardant properties, but also meet the strict requirements of low toxicity and low smoke. In view of this, the use of traditional organic halogen flame retardants is gradually decreasing due to their high toxicity and high smoke generation, while inorganic flame retardants such as Mg(OH)2 and Al(OH)3 have ushered in rapid development due to their non-toxic and smoke-eliminating properties. However, Mg(OH)2 and Al(OH)3 need to be added to a higher proportion (usually up to 50% by mass) to show a good flame retardant effect, which often leads to a decrease in the processing performance of the base resin and a significant loss of mechanical properties.

[0003] As an important member of the inorganic flame retardant system, zinc borate not only has multiple functions such as flame retardancy, carbonization, smoke suppression, smoldering suppression and droplet formation prevention, but also has the advantages of environmental protection, economy and little effect on the mechanical properties of polymers. Current research often adds zinc borate as a flame retardant additive to inorganic flame retardants to form compound flame retardants, aiming to maintain flame retardant properties while reducing the amount of substances such as Mg(OH)2, thereby improving the mechanical properties of the coating. However, directly mixing zinc borate with Mg(OH)2 and / or Al(OH)3 to form a compound flame retardant cannot solve the problem of poor compatibility and easy agglomeration between inorganic nanoparticles and polymer matrices, and when inorganic flame retardants are directly compounded, the amount of flame retardant added is still high. For example, the synergistic effect of zinc borate with Mg(OH)2 and Al(OH)3 in flame retardant EVA (VA content 24%) shows that even in an intumescent flame retardant system, the amount of flame retardant added needs to reach about 30% to achieve an ideal flame retardant effect.

[0004] Therefore, developing efficient surface modification technologies for inorganic particles such as zinc borate, Mg(OH)2, and Al(OH)3 to achieve the dual goals of efficient flame retardancy and good dispersibility, and promoting these flame retardants to form an effective composite system, is of far-reaching significance for promoting their widespread application in the field of flame retardant coatings. Summary of the invention

[0005] The object of the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies of the existing flame retardant coatings mentioned in the above background art. The present invention provides a multi-component synergistic flame retardant modified coating and its preparation method; by effectively surface-modifying zinc borate, Mg(OH)2, and Al(OH)3 respectively, while improving their flame retardant performance and dispersibility, and promoting their effective compounding to form an inorganic-organic-inorganic multi-component synergistic flame retardant, providing a new type of high-performance flame retardant modified material for the field of flame retardant coatings.

[0010] (b) Add the epoxy group modified nanoparticles prepared above to dimethyl sulfoxide, and add 2-amino-4,6-dichloro-S-triazine, ultrasonically disperse the mixture evenly, and then stir the reaction solution at 80 - 120 o °C for 6 - 10 h, then carry out suction filtration, wash with deionized water for multiple times, and dry to obtain organically flame retardant modified Al(OH)3 (or Mg(OH)2) nanoparticles; the dosage of each component is: add 100 - 200 mL of dimethyl sulfoxide for every 1 - 1.5 g of epoxy group modified nanoparticles, and add 0.6 - 1 g of 2-amino-4,6-dichloro-S-triazine.

[0011] Preferably, the organically flame retardant modified zinc borate is prepared by the following steps:

[0063] Comparative Example 5

[0064] The coating of this comparative example contains the following components in parts by mass and is prepared by the following steps: 80 parts of waterborne epoxy resin, 10 parts of compound flame retardant, and 10 parts of deionized water are mixed and stirred evenly to obtain a prefabricated coating, and then 40 parts of curing agent are added and stirred evenly to obtain Comparative Coating 1; the compound flame retardant consists of unmodified Al(OH)3, Mg(OH)2 and organically flame-retardant modified zinc borate, and the mass ratio of the three is 4:4:1.

[0067] The coatings obtained in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-5 were evenly brushed on the surface of a steel sheet (sandblasted to Sa2 level), the average thickness of the coating was kept at about 1.5 mm, and it was cured at room temperature for one week to obtain a specimen coating. The morphology and the ultimate flame resistance time of each coating preparation process are listed in Table 1.

[0068] Table 1 Morphology and ultimate fire resistance time of the coatings obtained in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-5 during the preparation process

[0070] By comparing the results of the examples and the comparative examples, it can be clearly seen that the multi-component composite flame retardant prepared by the present invention exhibits significant advantages. This flame retardant not only effectively composits each component together through strong chemical bonds, but also fully exerts the high-efficiency flame retardant synergistic effect among flame retardant components such as Al(OH)3, Mg(OH)2, triazine structures, polydopamine, halogens, and zinc borate. This synergistic effect promotes the formation of a denser carbon layer. In addition, the surface of the composite flame retardant is rich in a large number of active functional groups, which can form strong interactions with the resin matrix, thus significantly improving the compatibility between the flame retardant and the matrix. Therefore, the coatings prepared by the present invention exhibit excellent flame retardant properties. In contrast, in Comparative Example 2, unmodified Al(OH)3 and Mg(OH)2 were used as the compounded flame retardant. It can be seen that even with a small amount added, the improvement of the flame retardant performance of the coating is extremely limited. In Comparative Example 3, magnesium silicate was further added. However, due to the weak interaction among unmodified Al(OH)3, Mg(OH)2, and magnesium silicate and the easy occurrence of agglomeration, the improvement of the flame retardant performance of the resulting coating is not obvious. In Comparative Examples 4 and 5, effective composite formation among Al(OH)3, Mg(OH)2, and zinc borate could not be achieved, so the synergistic flame retardant effect could not be fully exerted, and the flame retardant performance of the coatings was naturally inferior to that of the coatings in the examples. In summary, the multi-component composite flame retardant of the present invention shows obvious advantages in improving the flame retardant performance of coatings.

[0071] The present invention is not limited to the above specific embodiments. For those of ordinary skill in the art, starting from the above conceptions, without creative labor, all kinds of transformations made fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
