Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a coating and a preparation method thereof, and specifically to a composite coating for deicing by electrothermal and photothermal conversion and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Icing is a widespread phenomenon in nature, often appearing on the surfaces of critical infrastructure such as aircraft, wind turbines, and high-voltage power lines. It adversely impacts various industrial processes and can even pose serious safety hazards. Therefore, rapidly removing ice from solid surfaces has become a pressing scientific and technological challenge. Traditional mechanical and chemical deicing methods suffer from low efficiency, environmental pollution, and equipment loss, limiting their effectiveness in practical applications.

[0003] In recent years, solar energy, as a clean energy source, has attracted significant attention for its application in anti-icing technology. Photothermal coatings absorb sunlight and convert it into heat, raising the temperature of the solid surface, thereby achieving both anti-icing and de-icing effects. While existing photothermal de-icing coatings have made some progress, their performance remains highly dependent on the micro- and nanostructured design of the surface, presenting numerous challenges.

[0004] First, the preparation of micro-nanostructures typically requires high-precision processing methods (such as laser machining and electron beam etching), which are not only costly and time-consuming, but also difficult to meet the needs of large-scale production. Second, micro-nanostructures are easily degraded due to mechanical damage (such as wear and scratches) in practical applications, resulting in a significant decrease in photothermal efficiency. In addition, many existing surface modification technologies rely on environmentally unfriendly materials such as organic solvents and fluorinated chemicals, further limiting their widespread application.

[0005] Therefore, the development of novel anti-icing and de-icing coatings that are independent of micro- and nanostructures and possess all-weather adaptability and high performance is urgently needed for practical applications. The design of such coatings must not only overcome the limitations of existing technologies but also take into account low cost, sustainability, and environmental friendliness to better meet the needs of industrial and social development. Summary of the Invention

[0006] Purpose of the invention: In order to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an all-weather anti-icing electrothermal-photothermal conversion deicing composite coating. Another purpose of the present invention is to provide a convenient and practical method for preparing the electrothermal-photothermal conversion deicing composite coating.

[0007] Technical solution: The composite coating for electrothermal and photothermal conversion deicing described in the present invention includes the following raw materials in parts by weight: 3.5 to 6 parts of epoxy resin, 3.5 to 6 parts of curing agent, 1 to 2 parts of titanium carbide, and 18 to 20 parts of anhydrous ethanol.

[0008] Furthermore, the curing agent is E51 curing agent with a viscosity of 2000-3000 mPa·s, and the epoxy resin is E51 bisphenol A epoxy resin with a viscosity of 11000-14000 mPa·s.

[0009] Furthermore, the average particle size of titanium carbide is 50 nm.

[0010] The method for preparing a composite coating for electrothermal and photothermal conversion deicing according to the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0011] Step 1: using anhydrous ethanol as solvent, adding epoxy resin and curing agent and stirring at room temperature until dissolved to obtain a homogeneous solution A;

[0012] Step 2: applying the homogeneous solution A obtained in step 2 on the surface of a clean substrate by scraping, and vacuum drying to form an insulating layer on the clean substrate;

[0013] Step 3: Laying a conductive copper foil on the insulating layer obtained in step 2;

[0014] Step 4: Using anhydrous ethanol as solvent, add titanium carbide nanoparticles and stir them evenly with a magnetic stirrer. Then, add epoxy resin and curing agent, stir them magnetically until dissolved, and then disperse them with an ultrasonic stirrer to form a homogeneous solution B.

[0015] Step 5: spray the homogeneous solution B obtained in step 4 onto the surface of the product obtained in step 3, and vacuum dry it to obtain a composite coating.

[0016] Furthermore, in step 1, the mass ratio of anhydrous ethanol, epoxy resin and curing agent is 2-3:0.5-2:0.5-2.

[0017] Furthermore, in step 2, the vacuum drying temperature is 60-80°C for 2-4 hours. The substrate is an iron plate, the surface of which is first treated with 800-2000 grit sandpaper to remove surface impurities, and then ultrasonically cleaned for 10-20 minutes to form a clean surface.

[0018] Furthermore, in step 4, the ratio of anhydrous ethanol, titanium carbide, epoxy resin: curing agent is 7.5-8.5:1-2:0.25-1:0.25-1. The magnetic stirring speed is 500-600 rpm, and the stirring time is 40-60 min.

[0019] Furthermore, in step five, the spraying is air spraying. Air spraying can usually cover smaller areas better than traditional brushing or roller coating, and form a uniform thin layer on the surface of complex shapes. Due to the presence of airflow, the spray atomized particles are smaller, and the spraying quality is good and smooth. The air spraying operation requires a high level of technical proficiency, and it is necessary to master the appropriate spraying distance, spray gun angle, hand speed, etc. A slight deviation may cause problems such as uneven coating, sagging, overspray, etc. The compressed air pressure for spraying is 0.4~0.8MPa, the distance between the substrate and the spray gun nozzle during the spraying process is 15~20cm, the spraying time is 30~60s, and the vacuum drying temperature is 60~80℃, and the time is 4~8 hours.

[0020] Preparation principle: The insulating layer is prepared by optimizing the ratio of epoxy resin and anhydrous ethanol. The insulating layer serves to isolate the substrate from the electric heating coating, preventing current leakage from causing safety accidents, while reducing heat loss and ensuring the deicing effect of the coating. The epoxy resin coating also forms a strong bond with the substrate, improving the stability and durability of the coating. The key to the present invention lies in the preparation of the conductive coating. The conductive particles need to be evenly distributed inside the conductive coating to form a dense conductive network to achieve stable electrothermal conversion. To this end, the best conductivity and thermal conversion effect are obtained by adjusting the ratio of epoxy resin to titanium carbide (TiC) nanoparticles. The coating can be applied to various solid surfaces through spraying technology and exhibits excellent electrothermal and photothermal conversion performance. Based on the excellent photothermal conversion ability and good conductivity of titanium carbide nanoparticles, the coating can simultaneously achieve efficient electrothermal and photothermal deicing effects.

[0021] Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following significant features:

[0022] 1. Using epoxy resin, which is corrosion-resistant, high-temperature-resistant and has excellent insulation properties, as a binder, combined with the electrothermal effect and photothermal effect of titanium carbide nanoparticles, a photoelectric thermal composite coating with long-term stability is prepared;

[0023] 2. The electrothermal and photothermal composite coating of the present invention has excellent performance in electrothermal and photothermal conversion performance. 2 Under the electric power density of 1sun, the coating can raise the temperature to above 100℃ within 90 seconds; under the electric power density of 1sun, 0.1W / cm 2 ) irradiated, the coating temperature can rise to above 130°C within 300 seconds; in addition, when 0.2W / cm 2 The electric power density and the power density of 1 sun (1sun, 0.1W / cm 2 ), the melting time of the frozen droplets can be shortened to 52 seconds, which is 4.5 times shorter than that of the smooth substrate.

[0070] S1. Use 1200 grit sandpaper to treat the surface of the iron plate, and put it into an ultrasonic cleaner to clean the surface for 15 minutes to form a clean surface.

The results showed that: 2 ) irradiated by 0.4W / cm 2 At an electric power density of 100 nm, the electrothermal conversion temperature can reach 43°C in 90 seconds.

[0077] like Figure 2 Examples 1 to 5 show the coatings with different TiC contents under 1 sun (1sun, 0.1W / cm 2) under irradiation, the results show that with the increase of TiC content, the photothermal conversion performance of the composite coating gradually increases. Examples 4 and 5 mainly increase the content of epoxy resin and curing agent on the basis of Example 1, and the photothermal temperature rise of the coating decreases slightly.

[0078] like Figure 3 , Examples 1 to 5 show that coatings with different TiC contents have a 2 The temperature curves under different power densities show that as the TiC content increases, the electrothermal conversion performance of the composite coating gradually increases, and the temperature rises accordingly. Examples 4 and 5 mainly change the content of epoxy resin and curing agent based on Example 1, and the electrothermal temperature rise of the coating decreases rapidly. Therefore, we can conclude that the increase of epoxy resin affects the conductivity of the coating, and thus affects the electrothermal temperature rise of the coating.

[0079] In the above embodiments, the heating results of embodiment 2 and embodiment 3 are similar, but embodiment 2 uses fewer TiC nanoparticles, saving costs, so embodiment 2 is a preferred embodiment.

[0080] like Figure 4 As shown in the figure, it is the photothermal heating effect diagram of Example 2. 2 ) irradiation, the coating temperature rises to 132 ° C within 600 s and remains stable at 132 ° C; 0.7 sun (0.7sun, 0.07W / cm 2 ) irradiation, the coating temperature rises to 115 ° C within 600 s and remains stable at 115 ° C; 0.5 sun (0.5sun, 0.05W / cm 2 ) irradiation, the coating temperature rises to 91 ° C within 600 s and remains stable at 91 ° C; 0.3 sun (0.3sun, 0.03W / cm 2 ) irradiation, the coating temperature rose to 65℃ within 600s and remained stably at 65℃.

[0081] like Figure 5 The figure shows the heating effect of the electric heating in Example 2. 2 At an electric power density of 0.2 W / cm, the coating temperature rises to 105 ° C within 90 s and remains stable at 105 ° C; at an electric power density of 0.2 W / cm 2 At an electric power density of 0.1 W / cm, the coating temperature rises to 82 °C within 600 s and remains stable at 82 °C. 2 At an electric power density of 0.05 W / cm, the coating temperature rises to 58 °C within 600 s and remains stable at 58 °C. 2 Under the electric power density of , the coating temperature rises to 45 °C within 600 s and remains stably at 45 °C.

[0082] like Figure 6 , a delayed freezing test was conducted on Example 2. In the absence of sunlight and power, the time required for the water droplets to completely freeze was 214 seconds; at 0.05W / cm 2 Under the electric power density of 0.5sun, 0.05W / cm 2 ) irradiation, the freezing time was further extended to 2165 seconds, which was 9.1 times longer than that under no light conditions. In addition, under 0.5 sun (0.5sun, 0.05W / cm 2 ) and 0.05W / cm 2 Under the conditions of combined photoelectric and thermal power density, a delayed icing test was conducted on Example 2, and the results showed that the droplets were completely evaporated within 170 minutes.

[0083] like Figure 7 , deicing test was conducted on Example 2. First, the melting test of frozen droplets was conducted without any external heat source. The results showed that the droplets were completely melted in 233 seconds. Then, under 1 sun (1sun, 0.1W / cm 2 ) irradiated, the melting time of the droplets was significantly shortened to 134 seconds, demonstrating the good effect of photothermal conversion in accelerating ice melting. 2 When tested under the condition of electric power density of 100W / cm2, the droplet melting time was 184 seconds, which was 1.3 times shorter than that under the condition of no heat source, further confirming the effectiveness of electrothermal conversion in the deicing process. Finally, the deicing effect of Example 2 was tested by combining photothermal and electrothermal. 2 ) and 0.05W / cm 2 Under the conditions of combined photothermal and electric heat with high electric power density, the melting time of frozen droplets on the coating is shortened to 69s. Compared with a single heat source, the effect is improved several times, which also verifies the necessity of combining photothermal and electric heat for deicing and has a synergistic effect.

[0086] Example 6

[0087] This example aims to explore the effect of the ratio of epoxy resin and anhydrous ethanol used in preparing the insulating layer 2 on the performance of the insulating layer 2 .

[0088] The remaining steps of this comparative example are the same as those of Example 2, with the only difference being that the raw materials in S2 are replaced by: (1) 1g epoxy resin, 1g curing agent, 12g anhydrous ethanol; (2) 2g epoxy resin, 2g curing agent, 12g anhydrous ethanol; (3) 4g epoxy resin, 4g curing agent, 12g anhydrous ethanol. An electric heating test was conducted, and the results showed that when the schemes (1) and (2) were adopted, when the content of epoxy resin was reduced to 1g and 2g, the prepared insulating layer 2 could not achieve the insulation effect. When a DC power supply was connected, the current would be transferred to the iron plate of the substrate 1, causing a short circuit, and the coating would not undergo electrothermal conversion. Then, when we increased the content of epoxy resin to 2.5g, we found that the coating regained its conductivity. We implemented scheme (3) and found that when the content of epoxy resin in the insulating layer 2 was increased, the thickness of the insulating layer 2 would increase significantly, but it would not affect the photothermal and electrothermal properties of the coating.

[0090] The remaining steps of this comparative example are the same as those of Example 2, with the only difference being that the titanium carbide nanometer-sized material is replaced with titanium carbide micrometer-sized material. 2 ) is irradiated by 109°C, which is 21°C lower than that of nanomaterials.

[0091] Comparative Example 2

[0092] The remaining steps of this comparative example were identical to those of Example 2, with the only difference being that the titanium carbide in S5 was replaced with 0.5 g of titanium carbide. An electrothermal / photothermal heating performance test was conducted under the experimental conditions of 25 ± 2°C and 60 ± 5% humidity. The results showed that the maximum photothermal heating of the coating was only 85°C, indicating that the temperature rise of the coating was positively correlated with the titanium carbide content; the higher the content, the higher the maximum temperature rise and the faster the heating rate.

[0093] Comparative Example 3

[0094] The remaining steps of this comparative example were identical to those of Example 2, with the only difference being that the titanium carbide in S5 was replaced with 3 g. An electrothermal / photothermal heating performance test was conducted under the experimental conditions of 25 ± 2°C and 60 ± 5% RH. The results showed that the maximum temperature rise was essentially the same as that of Example 2, indicating that the current epoxy resin content has reached its maximum loading capacity and cannot support any more titanium carbide nanoparticles.
