Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of resin compositions, and in particular to a high-impact polystyrene material and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Expanded polystyrene plastic (EPS) materials have the characteristics of light weight, heat preservation, shock absorption, sound insulation, and easy molding. They are widely used in product packaging, food packaging, building materials, fast food tableware and other fields. Packaging and tableware are mostly disposable products. A large amount of discarded EPS is difficult to degrade naturally, and due to its large size and difficulty in transportation, it is usually abandoned in the environment after consumption, causing "white pollution" and waste of resources. It is reported that the annual demand for polystyrene in China has exceeded 10 million tons, and the demand for EPS has exceeded 2 million tons. Due to its light weight and low strength, discarded EPS foam is more likely to migrate and decompose into microplastics in the environment, which is very harmful to the entire ecological environment. Therefore, the recycling of EPS foam has important environmental significance and economic value.

[0003] Pearl cotton material is expanded polyethylene material, referred to as EPE material, which is a foam material based on high-pressure LDPE and is widely used in the packaging field. Although EPE is easy to recycle, the current recycling rate is generally not high. The effect of continuing to foam after recycling EPE is often worse. A large amount of EPE pearl cotton is discarded, landfilled or incinerated, resulting in waste of resources and environmental pollution.

[0004] Based on EPS as the main body, the existing technology mainly uses styrene thermoplastic elastomers to toughen and obtain impact-grade polystyrene. However, EPS recycled materials often have low molecular weight and high melt index, resulting in low toughening efficiency of the material. Patent CN101070413A discloses the use of elastomers, polyethylene, and styrene-based compatibilizers to toughen waste polystyrene. This method has a certain compatibilization effect, but the toughening effect of styrene-based thermoplastic elastomers on styrene itself is greater than the compatibilization effect. The addition of a small amount of styrene-based thermoplastic elastomer has limited improvement on impact performance. In addition, this method uses a large amount of polyolefin elastomer (POE), and the tensile and flexural strengths of the material are both low. Summary of the invention

[0042] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0044] 2. The present invention achieves the toughening effect of rigid inorganic particles by adding modified nano-calcium carbonate, and the impact resistance of the material is significantly improved.

[0045] 3. The compatibility of EPS and EPE foam recycled materials themselves is not good.

[0046] 4. The present invention adopts styrene thermoplastic elastomer and polyolefin thermoplastic elastomer for composite toughening. The molecular chain segment of the composite thermoplastic elastomer contains styrene group, which has good compatibility with EPS chain segment, and also contains polyolefin soft segment, which improves the impact performance of the material. The composite of polyolefin elastomer in appropriate proportion is also beneficial to the toughening of EPE recycled resin.

[0047] 5. The present invention adopts a compound of a thermoplastic elastomer toughening agent and a light stabilizer. The thermoplastic elastomer molecular chain segment does not contain unsaturated double bonds and has excellent weather resistance and heat aging resistance. The compound with the light stabilizer improves the anti-ultraviolet performance of the material. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0081] Performance characterization:

[0082] The product performance of Examples 1 to 11 and Comparative Examples 1 to 6 was characterized, and the results are shown in Table 3:

[0083] Table 3 Performance characteristics of the products of the embodiments and comparative examples

[0084]

[0085]

[0086] Result analysis:

[0087] Combining Example 2 with Comparative Examples 1, 2, and 3, it can be seen that when the interface compatibilizer MBS / EMA and / or modified calcium carbonate are not added, the impact strength of the material is poor. When only modified calcium carbonate is added, the impact strength of the material is improved but to a limited extent. When only MBS / EMA is added, the material performance is similar to that of only calcium carbonate. When the interface compatibilizer and calcium carbonate are added at the same time, the impact performance of the material is greatly improved. This shows that MBS / EMA not only plays a role in toughening and promoting the compatibility of EPE recycled materials and the system, but also significantly improves the compatibility and dispersibility of calcium carbonate in the system, thereby improving the material performance.

[0088] Combining Example 2 and Comparative Example 4, it can be seen that the amount of EPE recycled material should not be too much.

[0089] The system of the present invention involves three substances, namely EPS, EPE, and stearic acid-modified calcium carbonate. The interfacial compatibilizer needs to have good compatibility with all three. Combining Example 2 and Comparative Example 6, it can be seen that the vinyl-butadiene-based and polar acrylate compatibilizer of the present invention can not only have a good compatibility effect, but also have a certain toughening effect, and its effect is better than the commonly used PS / PE system compatibilizer PE-g-PS.

[0090] As shown in Table 4, Example 2 is a solution with better comprehensive performance and economic cost, and Comparative Example 5 is a conventional HIPS on the market. It can be seen that the high-impact polystyrene material modified based on EPS recycled materials and EPE recycled materials has better material properties, and is also better than ordinary HIPS in terms of UV resistance, and has good application prospects. In addition, Example 2 contains more than 80% recycled materials, which has excellent environmental significance in solving the problem of white foam pollution, and at the same time turns waste into treasure, and has excellent economic efficiency.
