Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of preparation of halogen-free flame-retardant polymer materials, and in particular to a construction strategy and preparation method of a high-phosphorus content epoxy resin. Background Art
[0002] As a general-purpose thermosetting resin, epoxy resin has good heat resistance, chemical resistance and excellent mechanical properties. It is widely used in the electronic industry such as semiconductor packaging and electrical insulation materials. However, the limiting oxygen index (LOI) of epoxy resin material is only about 20%, which is easy to burn and cause fire, which limits its application to a certain extent. Traditional halogen-based flame-retardant epoxy resins produce a large number of toxic and corrosive products during use, which can no longer meet the society's growing environmental protection requirements. The research and application development of halogen-free flame-retardant epoxy resins has become a new research direction, among which low-smoke and low-toxic phosphorus-based flame retardant systems have become a research hotspot due to their high flame retardant efficiency. At present, phosphorus-containing flame-retardant epoxy resins are mostly prepared by reacting 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide (DOPO) and its derivatives with basic epoxy resins. The phosphorus content of the resin is low, and a large amount of addition is often required to achieve the required flame retardant grade, which in turn affects other properties of the resin and limits its application. The reactive flame retardant diphenylphosphine oxide (DPO) and its derivatives can provide a higher phosphorus content with a smaller addition amount, which is of great significance for constructing flame-retardant epoxy resins with high phosphorus content. Summary of the invention

The method achieves effective control of the phosphorus content and molecular weight of the product through formula design, and can produce a phosphorus-containing epoxy resin with a high phosphorus content and high flame retardancy through a simple one-step method.
[0005] Furthermore, the high phosphorus content epoxy resin has a softening point of 50±20° C., an epoxy equivalent of 350±70 g / eq, a phosphorus content of 4.5±1%, and has the following structure:
[0006]
[0007] In the formula, R1 is any one of —CH2— and —C(CH3)2—.
[0008] Where R2 is Any of .

[0010] Where R3 is Any of .
[0011] A method for preparing a high-phosphorus content epoxy resin, the innovation of which is that it comprises the following steps:
[0012] S1: 60-80 parts by weight of base epoxy resin and 20-40 parts by weight of reactive phosphorus-containing flame retardant are placed in a reactor and heated to 90°C to dissolve and become transparent;

[0015] Furthermore, the basic epoxy resin in S1 is one or two of bisphenol A diglycidyl ether, bisphenol F diglycidyl ether, bisphenol A novolac epoxy resin, phenol novolac epoxy resin, and o-cresol novolac epoxy resin.
[0016] Furthermore, the reactive phosphorus-containing flame retardant in S1 is one or both of diphenylphosphine oxide (DPO) and 2,5-dihydroxyphenyl (diphenyl)phosphine oxide (DPOHQ).
[0017] Furthermore, the catalyst in S2 is one or two of triphenylphosphine, ethyltriphenylphosphine bromide, ethyltriphenylphosphine acetate, triethylbenzylammonium chloride, and tetrabutylammonium bromide.
[0018] The advantages of the present invention are that the high-phosphorus-content epoxy resin of the present invention can effectively control the phosphorus content and molecular weight of the product through formula design, and can prepare the phosphorus-containing epoxy resin with high phosphorus content, good flame retardancy, thermal stability and processability through a simple one-step method.
