Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of polymer materials, and in particular relates to a high temperature resistant polyamide material, a preparation method and a composition thereof. Background Art

[0002] The melting point of high-temperature resistant polyamide is generally above 270°C. It has excellent heat resistance and excellent mechanical properties and is widely used in electronic devices, automotive engine peripheral components, aerospace and other fields. Among them, polypentamethylene terephthalamide (PA5T for short) is a polyamide with excellent performance. It exhibits excellent mechanical strength because it also has a rigid benzene ring structure. The comprehensive performance of PA5T is similar to that of PA6T. Compared with PA6T, it has two major advantages. One is that its monomer diamine is obtained through biological fermentation and has lower carbon emissions; the other is that it can bypass the monopoly of foreign companies on hexamethylenediamine and avoid the problem of "stuck neck" of raw materials. Since the melting point of PA5T is higher than 350°C and melt processing is difficult, industry researchers will introduce other dibasic acid components through copolymerization modification to obtain polyamide resins with lower melting points (about 300°C). Chinese patent CN113999388A discloses a bio-based high temperature resistant nylon PA5T / 5I copolymer and its preparation method. The reaction time under high pressure is as long as 3 hours and the process is complicated. The impact toughness of the prepared copolyamide resin is poor, and the simply supported beam notched impact strength is only 4.5 kJ / m 2 , unable to meet the downstream terminal market demand for high-temperature polyamide.

[0003] Carbon nanotubes are aggregated into bundles due to van der Waals forces, which are prone to local twisting and entanglement. They are insoluble in water and common organic solvents, which limits the application of carbon nanotubes. In comparison, carboxyl-modified carbon nanotubes have better reactivity and solubility. The preparation methods of carboxyl-modified carbon nanotubes for reinforcing polyamide generally include solution blending, melt blending and in-situ blending. Among them, in-situ blending is suitable for industrial applications and can make the carboxyl-modified carbon nanotubes well dispersed in the base phase, and can improve the interface properties between the carboxyl-modified carbon nanotubes and the matrix, thereby improving the performance of polyamide. However, there is no report on the preparation of carboxyl-modified carbon nanotubes for reinforcing short carbon chain high temperature resistant polyamide by liquid phase in-situ polymerization process.
