Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of polymer composite processing, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a hydrophilic and anti-fouling HDPE composite antibacterial pipe. BACKGROUND

[0002] High-density polyethylene is a kind of thermoplastic resin with high crystallinity and non-polarity, which has good heat resistance and cold resistance, and good chemical stability and mechanical strength, and is widely used in the fields of film, pipe, various hollow products, injection molded products, fibers and the like. However, in order to meet the requirements of specific working conditions, the high-density polyethylene pipe needs to have stronger anti-fouling and antibacterial properties and mechanical properties. In order to further make the polyethylene pipe more widely used in life and production, and to improve the antibacterial and hydrophilic properties of the polyethylene pipe, the antibacterial agent and the hydrophilic agent need to have good compatibility and dispersibility with the base body.

[0003] Zinc oxide antibacterial agent is a material with multiple antibacterial mechanisms. Under light conditions, especially under ultraviolet light, zinc oxide can generate high-activity photo-generated electrons and holes. These photo-generated holes can excite oxygen in the air to become active oxygen, which has strong chemical activity and can react with various microorganisms to kill bacteria. The zinc ion dissolution mechanism is also an important part of the antibacterial effect of zinc oxide. Zinc oxide can slowly release zinc ions in aqueous media, and these zinc ions can combine with bacterial cell membranes to destroy the structure of membrane proteins, making them lose activity and achieving the purpose of killing bacteria. In addition, the generation of active oxygen is related to light. Based on the semiconductor properties of zinc oxide, the generation of free electrons and electron holes under the action of light will further produce active oxygen groups, which makes the active oxygen antibacterial effect of zinc oxide and the photocatalytic antibacterial effect interrelated.

[0004] Triclosan is a broad-spectrum antibacterial agent, and its antibacterial principle is mainly to inhibit the synthesis of bacterial fatty acids. Triclosan has killing and inhibiting effects on various gram-positive bacteria, gram-negative bacteria, fungi and viruses, so its application fields are very wide, including personal care products such as toothpaste, soap, facial cleanser, hand sanitizer, and medical device disinfectant, wound disinfectant, etc.

[0005] Span 40, also known as sorbitan palmitate, is a non-ionic surfactant with emulsifying, thickening and dispersing properties. It is a light yellow granular solid at room temperature, and the melting point is about 46-47℃. Its hydrophilicity mainly comes from the multiple hydroxyl structures in the molecule, which can form hydrogen bonds with water molecules to provide certain hydrophilicity. At the same time, its molecular structure also contains a long hydrophobic fatty acid chain, so it also has good compatibility with plastics. SUMMARY

[0006] In view of the problems of poor strength and no antibacterial ability of the pipe material obtained by injection molding of the existing high-density polyethylene, the application provides a preparation method of a hydrophilic and stain-resistant HDPE composite antibacterial pipe material, which adds ZnO-TCS antibacterial agent, on the one hand, by combining zinc oxide and triclosan, the stability of the inorganic antibacterial agent zinc oxide and the excellent antibacterial performance of triclosan can be taken into account, and the nano-scale island structure of zinc oxide can be formed to enhance the mechanical properties of the pipe material; on the other hand, since span 40 contains a large number of hydroxyl groups and relatively suitable hydrophobic chains, the hydrophilicity of the material can be ensured, and the compatibility with the polyethylene material can also be taken into account, so that the hydrophilic ability and the strength of the polyethylene pipe material can be improved at the same time.

[0007] To achieve the above object, the application adopts the following technical scheme:

[0008] A hydrophilic and stain-resistant HDPE composite antibacterial pipe material is prepared by using high-density polyethylene, ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer, EVA-g-MAH compatibilizer, ZnO-TCS antibacterial agent and span 40 as raw materials through melt mixing, crushing, drying and injection molding.

[0009] Among them, each raw material is 100 parts by weight of high-density polyethylene, 4 parts of ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer, 2 parts of EVA-g-MAH compatibilizer, 1-2 parts by weight of ZnO-TCS antibacterial agent and 2.5-3.5 parts of span 40.

[0010] Further, the model of the high-density polyethylene is 5000S, and the density is 0.941-0.960 g / cm 3 .

[0011] Further, the model of the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer is EW-3801.

[0012] Further, the model of the EVA-g-MAH compatibilizer is Bynel 39E660.

[0013] Further, the preparation method of the ZnO-TCS antibacterial agent comprises the following steps:

[0014] (1) 1g of zinc oxide is accurately weighed and added to 60ml of ethanol solution with a volume concentration of 99%, then 20ml of pure water and 1ml of silane coupling agent KH570 are added, and stirring is carried out under the condition of a water bath at 60℃ and 600r / min until complete dissolution, then ice acetic acid is slowly added to the solution to adjust the pH value to 4, and the reaction is carried out for 2h, finally the ZnO-KH570 powder is obtained by centrifugal washing and freeze-drying;

[0015] (2) accurately take 1g of triclosan (TCS) powder, add to 80ml of pure water, heat to 60℃ and stir until completely dissolved, then slowly add 0.7ml of methacrylic anhydride to it, then add 0.3g of 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) powder, finally add 1M NaOH solution to adjust the pH value to about 9, react at 60℃, 600r / min oil bath for 6h, after the reaction is completed, centrifugal washing, freeze-drying, to obtain TCS-MA powder;

[0016] (3) accurately take 0.5g of TCS-MA powder, add to 40ml of 99% volume concentration of ethanol solution, then add 1g of prepared ZnO-KH570 powder, pass nitrogen for 30min, then add 0.5g of azobis isobutylimidazole hydrochloride (AIBI) powder, react at 55℃, 600r / min oil bath for 10h, finally centrifugal washing, freeze-drying, to obtain the ZnO-TCS antibacterial agent.

[0017] Further, the melt mixing is mixed in a torque rheometer at 200℃, 100r / min for 9~10min.

[0018] Further, the injection molding is punched in a micro injection molding machine at 220℃, pressure 0.3~0.5Mpa for 10s, holding pressure for 5s.

[0019] The beneficial effects of the application are:

[0020] (1) The antibacterial effect of zinc oxide requires light environment, and the antibacterial effect is poor in the absence of light. The application prepares ZnO-TCS antibacterial agent by grafting organic antibacterial agent triclosan onto inorganic antibacterial agent zinc oxide, and in the process, the carbon-carbon double bond of TCS-MA and the carbon-carbon double bond of ZnO-KH570 are polymerized to become high-stability carbon-carbon single bond, which can make the obtained antibacterial agent have high stability and high temperature resistance of inorganic antibacterial agent, and on the other hand, the obtained antibacterial agent still has excellent antibacterial effect in the absence of light. In addition, since the antibacterial agent is modified with zinc oxide as the matrix, it can act as an island structure in polyethylene, greatly improving the strength of the composite material.

[0021] (2) In the preparation process of the ZnO-TCS antibacterial agent, KH570 is grafted on zinc oxide, so that a double bond is introduced; meanwhile, based on the characteristics that triclosan has independent phenolic hydroxyl and methyl methacrylate has high esterification reactivity, triclosan and methyl methacrylate are subjected to esterification reaction, so that triclosan is grafted with a double bond, and finally the ZnO-TCS antibacterial agent obtained through the polymerization reaction of the carbon-carbon double bond can have high stability of zinc oxide and broad-spectrum antibacterial characteristics of triclosan, and can effectively kill and inhibit various gram-positive bacteria, gram-negative bacteria, molds, yeasts and viruses.

[0022] (3) Ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer is an olefin thermoplastic plastic, which has the advantages of high strength, high thermal stability, high barrier property and excellent hydrophilic property. The ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer is added to the polyethylene in the application, so that the problems of poor barrier property and poor hydrophilic property of the polyethylene can be solved. At the same time, the high-temperature melt blending process is adopted in the application, so that the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer can be uniformly dispersed in the polyethylene. In addition, since the crystallization temperature of the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer is different from that of the high-density polyethylene, the island particle structure can be formed in the polyethylene material during the crystallization process, so that the mechanical properties of the material can be further improved.

[0023] (4) The superiority of Span 40 as a hydrophilic agent mainly lies in the following aspects: first, Span 40 has amphiphilicity, which makes it not only have good hydrophilic property, but also have good compatibility with polyethylene material. In addition, the carbon chain length of Span 40 is 16 carbon atoms, which not only ensures its hydrophilic property in the form of small molecules, but also ensures its high-temperature stability in the plastic processing process.

[0024] (5) The preparation process of the application is simple and low in cost, the obtained composite antibacterial pipe material has excellent antibacterial performance and high strength, and can be widely used in the fields of life and industrial water pipeline, and has significant economic value and social benefits.

[0037] The preparation steps of the hydrophilic and stain-resistant HDPE composite antibacterial pipe material are as follows:

[0038] (1) Accurately take 1 g of zinc oxide and add it to 60 ml of 99% ethanol solution, then add 20 ml of pure water and 1 ml of KH570, stir at 60°C and 600 r / min in a water bath until completely dissolved, then slowly add glacial acetic acid to adjust the pH to 4, react for 2 h, and finally centrifuge, freeze-dry to obtain ZnO-KH570 powder;

[0039] (2) Accurately take 1 g of triclosan powder and add it to 80 ml of pure water, heat to 60°C and stir until completely dissolved, then slowly add 0.7 ml of methacrylic anhydride to it, then add 0.3 g of DMAP powder, and finally add 1M NaOH solution to adjust the pH to about 9, react at 60°C and 600 r / min in an oil bath for 6 h, after the reaction is completed, centrifuge, freeze-dry to obtain TCS-MA powder;

[0040] (3) Accurately take 0.5 g of prepared TCS-MA powder and add it to 40 ml of 99% ethanol solution, then add 1 g of prepared ZnO-KH570 powder, pass nitrogen for 30 min, then add 0.5 g of AIBI powder, react at 55°C and 600 r / min in an oil bath for 10 h, and finally centrifuge, freeze-dry to obtain ZnO-TCS powder;

[0041] (4) According to the weight parts, 100 parts of high-density polyethylene, 1.5 parts of ZnO-TCS antibacterial agent, 3 parts of Span 40, 2 parts of EVA-g-MAH compatibilizer, and 4 parts of ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer are put into a torque rheometer and mixed at 200°C and 100 r / min for 9 min, then crushed and placed in a 60°C drying oven overnight, then the obtained powder is added to a micro injection molding machine, the mold temperature is set to 55°C, and the pipe material is obtained by stamping at 220°C and 0.4Mpa for 10 s and holding for 5 s.

[0042] Figure 1 The infrared absorption spectra of ZnO-KH570 and ZnO-TCS prepared in this example are shown in the figure. As shown in the figure, the infrared absorption spectrum of ZnO-KH570 has absorption peaks at 1171 cm -1 and 1635 cm -1corresponding to Si-O bond and carbon-carbon double bond, respectively, it can be seen from the comparison of ZnO that silane coupling agent is successfully grafted on ZnO and carbon-carbon double bond is introduced. By comparing ZnO-KH570 and ZnO-TCS, it can be found that the absorption peak of carbon-carbon double bond disappears in ZnO-TCS, which indicates that the polymerization reaction causes the carbon-carbon double bond to polymerize into carbon-carbon single bond. At the same time, ZnO-TCS appears absorption peaks of benzene ring and ester group at 1475 cm -1 and 1748 cm -1 , respectively, since ZnO-KH570 itself does not have benzene ring and ester group, which indicates that zinc oxide is successfully grafted with triclosan.

[0043] Figure 2 The infrared absorption spectrum of TCS-MA prepared in this example is shown in the figure. As shown in the figure, the absorption peak of TCS-MA at 750 cm -1 corresponds to the stretching vibration absorption peak of C-Cl, which indicates that the antibacterial functional group is not damaged in the process of grafting methacrylic anhydride on triclosan; the corresponding hydroxyl stretching vibration absorption peak of triclosan at 3310 cm -1 disappears, and the stretching vibration absorption peak of methyl appears at 2930 cm -1 , which indicates that the grafting is successful; the absorption peaks of carbon-carbon double bond and carbon-oxygen bond at 1635 cm -1 and 1748 cm -1 , respectively, indicate that TCS-MA successfully grafts carbon-carbon double bond through esterification reaction.

[0044] Figure 3 The cross-sectional morphology of the composite antibacterial pipe material prepared in this example is shown in the figure. As shown in the figure, a large number of filamentous morphology and granular substances appear in the material cross-section, which indicates that the toughness of the composite material is enhanced and the overall dispersibility of ZnO-TCS is excellent.
