Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of phenolic resins, and more specifically to a novel rosin-modified phenolic resin and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Mineral oil hydrocarbons (MOH) is a mixture of hydrocarbons formed by the physical separation and chemical transformation of petroleum, mainly including linear, branched and cyclic saturated hydrocarbon mineral oils (MOSH) and benzene-ring-containing aromatic hydrocarbon mineral oils (MOAH). Traditional offset inks use mineral oil as a solvent, but mineral oil has potential effects on human health. For example, MOAH may be mutagenic and carcinogenic, and MOSH may accumulate in multiple tissues such as lymph nodes, spleen and liver. Vegetable oils do not have the above potential effects. Therefore, replacing traditional mineral oils with vegetable oils or their derivatives is an inevitable development trend of offset inks in the future.
[0003] Traditional offset ink contains 10% to 30% mineral oil. After the ink is transferred to the paper, the mineral oil will quickly penetrate into the pores of the paper. The ink loses solvent and turns from liquid phase to solid phase, forming penetration drying. In order to balance the penetration drying speed and ink gloss, offset ink containing mineral oil will choose highly soluble rosin-modified phenolic resin. However, the solubility of vegetable oil ink in rosin-modified phenolic resin is higher than that of traditional offset ink containing mineral oil. If the original high-soluble resin is still used, the speed of vegetable oil penetrating into the pores of the paper will slow down, the curing time will be longer, and the requirement of rapid flipping during printing will not be met, or it will take a long time to solidify before flipping, which will affect printing efficiency.
[0004] In the prior art, there are usually two processes for preparing rosin-modified phenolic resin:
[0005] (1) After the rosin is heated and dissolved, the required raw materials are added in sequence, firstly at 100-140°C for phenolic condensation reaction, and then the temperature is raised to 240-280°C for esterification reaction to produce rosin-modified phenolic resin, which is called the one-step process.
[0006] (2) Phenol and formaldehyde are first subjected to condensation reaction in the presence of a catalyst, then rosin is added for modification, and then polyols are added for esterification reaction to produce rosin-modified phenolic resin, which is called the two-step method. Regardless of the method used, the catalysts generally used in the phenol-formaldehyde condensation reaction are as follows: (1) alkali metal oxides or hydroxides, such as NaOH, KOH, CaO, Ca(OH)2, MgO, Mg(OH)2; (2) organic volatile alkaline compounds: ethanolamine, triethylamine, fatty amines, etc.
[0007] When using alkali metal oxides or hydroxides as catalysts, if the condensation reaction is not neutralized and washed with water, the catalyst will react with rosin to form rosin salt. If rosin salt is soluble in water, it will have a serious impact on the water resistance and emulsification of the ink; those that are insoluble in water (such as calcium abietic acid) are very difficult to dissolve in many solvents, and are also difficult to dissolve in vegetable oils and mineral oils, which is very unfavorable for synthesizing highly soluble products. If neutralization and washing are to be performed, the condensation reaction must be carried out in the presence of a solvent, which increases production costs and brings safety hazards, and also generates a large amount of wastewater, bringing environmental problems. At the same time, washing with water will cause a decrease in product yield and increase production costs. Summary of the invention
[0008] The invention provides a novel rosin-modified phenolic resin and a preparation method thereof. The prepared novel rosin-modified phenolic resin has good solubility, medium-high viscosity, high elastic structure, high gloss, good water resistance and good anti-ink flying property. It is suitable for various sheet-fed offset printing inks, cold-set and hot-set offset printing inks, and lithographic offset printing inks.
[0009] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a novel rosin-modified phenolic resin, the raw material components comprising:
[0010] The reactants are rosin, complex phenols, formaldehyde, catalyst, modifier and polyol, and epoxy chain extender is added to the reactants; the complex phenols include tert-octylphenol, tert-butylphenol and tert-butylphenol; the modifiers are boric acid and methyltrimethoxysilane.
[0011] Preferably, the mass ratio of boric acid to methyltrimethoxysilane in the modifier is 1:1-5.
[0012] Preferably, the epoxy chain extender is one or more of aliphatic epoxides, alicyclic epoxy compounds, epoxy functional polymers, polyethylene terephthalate and polybutylene terephthalate.
[0013] Preferably, the mass percentages of the composite phenols are 10-15% of p-tert-octylphenol, 5-7.2% of p-butylphenol, and 5-10% of p-tert-butylphenol.
[0014] Preferably, the mass percentages of the composite phenols are 12-15% of p-tert-octylphenol, 6.5-7.2% of p-butylphenol, and 8-10% of p-tert-butylphenol.
[0015] Preferably, the rosin is at least one of gum rosin, tall oil rosin and polymerized rosin; the gum rosin is horsetail rosin, wetland rosin, Yunnan rosin, South Asian rosin or South American rosin.
[0016] Preferably, the catalyst is one or more of sodium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, sodium formate, sodium acetate, sodium oxalate, aqueous ammonia, diethylamine, triethylamine and hexamethylenetetramine.
[0017] Preferably, the mass ratio of boric acid to methyltrimethoxysilane in the modifier is 1:3.
[0018] Preferably, the polyol is one or more of ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, neopentyl glycol, glycerol, trimethylolpropane, and pentaerythritol.
[0019] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a method for preparing a novel rosin-modified phenolic resin, comprising the following steps:
[0020] (1) reacting rosin, polyols and a catalyst to obtain a rosin derivative;
[0021] (2) reacting the composite phenols with formaldehyde under the action of a catalyst to obtain a phenolic resin;
[0022] (3) adding the phenolic resin obtained in step (2) to the rosin derivative obtained in step (1), and then adding a modifier to obtain a novel rosin-modified phenolic resin.
[0023] Preferably, in step (1), the reaction temperature is 150-250° C. and the insulation time is 0.5-2 h.
[0024] Preferably, in step (2), the reaction temperature is 220-270°C.
[0025] In a third aspect, the present invention provides an application of a novel rosin-modified phenolic resin, and the application of the novel rosin-modified phenolic resin in ink.
[0026] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0027] 1. In the present invention, boric acid and methyltrimethoxysilane are used as modifiers, phenol and formaldehyde are used as raw materials, and boron-modified phenolic resin and boron / silicon co-modified phenolic resin are prepared respectively. Boron and silicon atoms are connected to the phenolic resin molecular chain in the structures of BO, OBC, Si-OB, etc., which improves the heat resistance of the phenolic resin. Both BPF and B / SiPF can improve the flexural strength and high temperature stability of impregnated graphite.
[0028] 2. The epoxy chain extender of the present invention generates a hydroxyl group with the carboxyl group in the rosin-modified phenolic resin precursor, but the generated hydroxyl structure is subject to large steric hindrance, and the water resistance of the rosin-modified phenolic resin is improved. When the chain extender is an epoxy chain extender, it will react with the hydroxyl group in the rosin-modified phenolic resin precursor, the number of hydroxyl groups will decrease, the molecular weight will increase, and new cross-linking points will be formed, thereby enhancing the internal toughening performance of the phenolic resin, so that the water resistance of the rosin-modified phenolic resin is improved.
[0029] 3. The present invention uses phenols and aldehydes to condense in the presence of a catalyst to generate a soluble phenolic resin, and after reacting with the esterified synthetic product of rosin through a special process, an irregular reddish brown transparent solid resin is obtained. The obtained new rosin-modified phenolic resin has good solubility, medium-high viscosity, high elastic structure, high gloss, good water resistance and good anti-ink flying property. The new rosin-modified phenolic resin is suitable for various types of sheet-fed offset printing inks, cold-set and hot-set offset printing inks, lithographic offset printing inks, etc.
