Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of coatings, and particularly relates to an insulating and weather-resistant powder coating and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] From the development process of coatings, polyethylene powder emerged in the 1940s, opening the chapter of powder coatings. In the 1950s, thermosetting epoxy powder coatings were developed, and since then, the types of powder coatings have been continuously enriched. In the late 1990s, to meet new safety or weather resistance requirements, powder coating varieties with special properties such as low molecular weight epoxy compound-cured polyester and thermosetting fluororesin powder were developed. Entering the new century, powder technology has advanced by leaps and bounds, the market scale has been continuously expanding and becoming more refined, and the growth rate of weather-resistant powder coatings has been particularly significant.

[0003] In many application fields, insulating and weather-resistant powder coatings play an indispensable role. In the power industry, equipment such as high-voltage switchgear, transformers, and magnet wires are in a complex electrical environment for a long time. They not only need to have good insulation performance to ensure the safe and stable power transmission, but also need to resist harsh climate conditions such as sunlight exposure, acid rain erosion, and temperature changes outdoors to prevent equipment failures caused by coating damage. The new energy vehicle industry also has an urgent need for it. Key components such as the battery pack and motor of new energy vehicles generate a large amount of heat and electric fields during operation, requiring the coating to have properties such as insulation, heat resistance, and chemical corrosion resistance. At the same time, the vehicle travels outdoors and faces various climate challenges. Therefore, insulating and weather-resistant powder coatings become an important material to ensure the safety and service life of new energy vehicles. In addition, for some outdoor electronic devices, communication base stations, etc., coatings with both insulation and weather resistance are also needed to protect the equipment and ensure its stable operation.

[0004] However, traditional powder coatings are difficult to simultaneously meet the high standards of insulation and weather resistance. For example, although common epoxy powder coatings have excellent insulation performance, adhesion to metals, corrosion resistance, as well as hardness, flexibility, and impact strength, their weather resistance is poor. They are prone to powdering and discoloration in outdoor environments, and have a short service life, which limits their wide application in outdoor insulation fields. Acrylic resin powder coatings have good weather resistance and insulation performance, but there is still room for improvement in some insulation performance indicators, and there are few reports on their application in the insulation field.

[0005] Although in order to balance various indicators, some curing agents, fillers, and additives are blended, it is still not ideal. At present, the components of coatings on the market are diverse and the performance is uneven. There is still a common problem that it is difficult to comprehensively improve insulation, weather resistance, and adhesion. Summary of the Invention

[0021] An insulating and weather-resistant powder coating and its preparation method provided by the present invention have the following beneficial effects:

[0022] I. The present invention prepares a composite modified resin. In its core layer system, bisphenol A epoxy resin itself has good insulation performance, adhesion to metals, corrosion resistance, as well as hardness, flexibility and impact strength. The siloxane group in 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane can react with active groups such as hydroxyl groups in the epoxy resin to form a siloxane cross-linked network. This network structure can enhance the intermolecular force, improve the chemical stability and mechanical properties of the resin, especially significantly enhance its weather resistance, because the siloxane bond has good resistance to environmental factors such as ultraviolet rays and moisture. Aminopropyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane utilizes the siloxane chain segments in its molecular structure to promote the formation stability of the siloxane cross-linked network, and can also endow the core layer with good flexibility and hydrophobicity. Dibutyltin dilaurate acts as a catalyst to accelerate the siloxane cross-linking reaction and ensure the formation of a stable cross-linked structure within a specified time.

[0023] During the formation of the shell layer, hydroxyl acrylic resin has good weather resistance, gloss and color retention. Dimethyl stearylamine can promote the dispersion and graft polymerization reaction of hydroxyl acrylic resin on the surface of the core layer. The initiator benzoyl peroxide decomposes to generate free radicals, initiating the graft polymerization of hydroxyl acrylic resin and the core layer, so that the shell layer is tightly chemically bonded to the core layer. This composite modified resin with a core-shell structure not only retains the excellent properties of epoxy resin, but also combines the weather resistance advantages of hydroxyl acrylic resin to form a synergistic enhancement system, and the addition of aminopropyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane and dimethyl stearylamine additives effectively promotes the structural stability of the system, greatly improving the overall comprehensive performance of the coating.

[0024] II. Among the dual curing agents, methyl nadic anhydride and diphenylmethane diisocyanate can both react with the active groups in the resin to crosslink and cure the resin. After methyl nadic anhydride reacts with resins such as epoxy resin, it can improve the hardness, strength and chemical stability of the coating, and the anhydride group in its structure reacts with the hydroxyl group of the resin to form a stable chemical bond. Diphenylmethane diisocyanate has relatively high reactivity. It reacts with the hydroxyl group, amino group, etc. in the resin to further increase the crosslinking density and improve the mechanical properties and chemical corrosion resistance of the coating. When the two are used in combination and the ratio is adjusted, a better balance can be achieved among the curing speed, curing degree and the final coating properties.

[0025] III. In the dual curing agents, the latent curing accelerator is a microencapsulated imidazole compound. 2-Ethyl-4-methylimidazole is an efficient curing accelerator that can accelerate the curing reaction rate. However, to prevent it from initiating the curing reaction during the paint storage stage, it is microencapsulated using polyurethane as the wall material. At low temperatures or under normal conditions, the microcapsules remain intact, and the internal imidazole is encapsulated and will not react with other components in the paint, ensuring the storage stability of the paint. When the paint is in the high-temperature curing stage, the microcapsule wall material decomposes or softens upon heating, releasing imidazole, which thus promotes the crosslinking reaction between the main curing agent and the resin, improving the curing efficiency and degree, and enabling the coating to cure quickly and fully.

[0026] A certain amount of propylene glycol is added to promote the formation of the polyurethane wall material. Propylene glycol participates in the synthesis reaction of polyurethane, has a chain extension effect, and regulates the structure and properties of the wall material. If the addition is excessive, it will damage the wall material structure. Excessive propylene glycol will make the molecular chain of the polyurethane wall material too long or cause excessive crosslinking, resulting in the brittleness of the wall material and the destruction of the integrity of the microcapsules.

[0027] IV. Nano boron nitride itself has high thermal conductivity, high insulation, and good chemical stability. One end of the silane coupling agent KH560 can react with the surface of nano boron nitride, and the organic group at the other end can interact with the resin matrix. Through this modification, on the one hand, the dispersibility of nano boron nitride in the resin matrix is improved, enabling it to be evenly distributed in the paint, avoiding agglomeration phenomena, and giving full play to its performance advantages; on the other hand, the interfacial bonding force between nano boron nitride and the resin is enhanced, thereby improving the insulation performance, thermal conductivity, and mechanical properties of the paint, especially showing significant effects in enhancing the insulation performance, because good dispersion and interfacial bonding help reduce the defects in the electron conduction path.

[0028] V. Rutile titanium dioxide has good light resistance and weather resistance. By synthesizing silica coating, a dense protective film is formed to further prevent ultraviolet light from directly contacting the titanium dioxide and inhibit the occurrence of photocatalytic reactions, thereby further enhancing the weather resistance of the paint. At the same time, the presence of synthesized silica also improves the dispersibility and stability of titanium dioxide in the resin matrix, further enhancing the comprehensive performance of the paint.

[0029] VI. Fumed silica has a very large specific surface area and a special surface structure. In the paint, fumed silica increases the viscosity and thixotropy of the system by forming hydrogen bonds or other interactions with polymer molecules in the paint.

[0030] VII. Polytetrafluoroethylene wax powder can form a protective film with a low surface energy on the coating surface, giving the coating good slipperiness, making it not easy to stain with dust and dirt, improving the stain resistance of the coating. At the same time, its own wear resistance also helps to improve the wear resistance of the coating and extend the service life of the coating.

[0031] In summary, the present invention designs a core-shell structure of a composite modified resin. The epoxy core layer modified by silane maintains high insulation, the acrylic shell layer provides a weather resistance barrier, and the interfacial chemical bonding solves the phase separation problem. A dual-curing mechanism is designed. While the acid anhydride cures the epoxy core layer, the isocyanate reacts with the acrylic hydroxyl group to form an interpenetrating network. A filler synergistic effect is designed. The silane coupling agent-modified nano-boron nitride forms a three-dimensional thermal conductive and insulating network, and the silica-coated rutile titanium dioxide resists ultraviolet aging.

[0032] The composite modified resin, as the main film-forming substance of the coating, provides the basic mechanical properties, insulation properties and weather resistance properties. The dual curing agents ensure that the resin can be fully crosslinked and cured to form a stable three-dimensional network structure, improving the hardness, strength and chemical stability of the coating. The silane coupling agent-modified nano-boron nitride and silica-coated rutile titanium dioxide in the functional fillers strengthen the coating in terms of improving insulation properties and weather resistance respectively. At the same time, they enhance the homogeneity and also have a certain enhancing effect on the adhesion performance. They cooperate with each other to enable the coating to simultaneously possess excellent properties such as insulation, weather resistance and adhesion, solving the problem that it is difficult for traditional powder coatings to comprehensively improve these properties.

[0083] I. Insulation performance

[0084] 1. Volume resistivity: According to GB / T 1410 "Test Methods for Volume Resistivity and Surface Resistivity of Solid Insulating Materials", the powder coating is placed in a mold and kept under pressure at 15 MPa for 5 min to make a circular sample with a diameter of 50 mm and a thickness of 2 mm. In a constant temperature and humidity environment of 23 °C and 50% relative humidity, the sample is placed for 24 h to reach a stable state and then measured. The sample is placed on the test electrodes of a high resistance meter to ensure good contact between the electrodes and the sample. A DC voltage of 500 V is applied, and after 60 s, the volume resistivity value is read. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0085] 2. Electrical strength: According to GB / T 1408.1 "Test Methods for Electrical Strength of Insulating Materials - Part 1: Tests at Power Frequency", the sample has the same specifications as the sample for volume resistivity test, and is also tested in an environment of 23 °C and 50% relative humidity. The sample is placed between the upper and lower electrodes of a withstand voltage tester. The electrode diameter is 25 mm, and the voltage rising rate is set at 1 kV / s. The voltage is continuously increased until the sample breaks down, and the breakdown voltage value at this time is recorded. Then, the electrical strength is calculated according to the formula: Electrical strength = breakdown voltage / sample thickness. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0086] II. Weather Resistance

[0087] 1. Artificial accelerated aging: According to GB / T 1865 "Paints and varnishes - Artificial weathering and exposure to artificial radiation (filtered xenon - arc radiation)", the powder coating is sprayed on an aluminum plate with dimensions of 150 mm × 70 mm × 1 mm, the coating thickness is controlled at 80 μm, and then cured. The test specimens are placed in a xenon - arc lamp aging test chamber. The irradiance is set to 0.55 W / (m²·nm) (at 340 nm), the black - board temperature is 65 °C, the relative humidity is 50%, and the test cycle is 1000 h. A color - difference meter is used to detect the color - difference ΔE value before and after the test to evaluate the weather resistance. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0088] 2. Salt - spray corrosion: According to GB / T 1771 "Paints and varnishes - Determination of resistance to neutral salt - spray", the test specimens are the same as those prepared for the artificial accelerated aging test. The test specimens are placed in a salt - spray test chamber, using a 5% sodium chloride solution, the pH value of the solution is controlled at 7.0, the temperature is set at 35 °C, and continuous spraying is carried out for 2000 h. The test specimens are taken out, rinsed thoroughly with clean water, dried at room temperature for 1 h, and then the corrosion situation on the surface of the test specimens is observed. Corrosion rating is carried out according to GB / T 6461 "Metallic and other inorganic coatings on metallic substrates - Rating of specimens and test - pieces after corrosion tests".

On the surface of the prepared coating, a cross - cutter is used to penetrate the coating with a uniform pressure to draw 10 × 10 squares of 1 mm × 1 mm. Then, a 3M600 tape with a width of 25 mm is pasted on the cross - cut area, and the tape is pressed firmly with fingers to make it in full contact with the coating. After maintaining for 30 s, the tape is quickly torn off at an angle of 90°. Observe the coating peeling situation within the squares. The adhesion grade is divided into 0 - 5 levels, where level 0 indicates no coating peeling and the best adhesion; level 5 indicates that the coating peeling area is greater than 65% and the worst adhesion. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0091] Table 1 Test Results

[0092]

[0093] From the above results, it can be seen that the powder coatings of Examples 1 to 3 simultaneously have good insulation, weather resistance and adhesion, overcoming the technical bottleneck that it is difficult to improve all of them as a whole.

[0094] In Comparative Example 1, the composite modified resin was replaced with bisphenol A epoxy resin, and no core-shell structure and siloxane cross-linked network were formed. Bisphenol A epoxy resin itself has poor weather resistance. In the artificial accelerated aging and salt spray corrosion tests, it is easily eroded by ultraviolet rays and salts, resulting in coating powdering, corrosion, and deterioration of color difference and corrosion rating. At the same time, due to the lack of the synergistic strengthening effect of the core-shell structure, the insulation performance and adhesion performance are also affected, the volume resistivity decreases, the electrical strength drops, and the adhesion grade increases.

[0095] In Comparative Example 2, aminopropyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane was not added during the preparation of the composite modified resin, which affected the perfection of the siloxane cross-linked network. Aminopropyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane participates in the siloxane cross-linking reaction, increases the cross-linking density, and improves the stability of the material. The lack of it will make the cross-linked network sparse and the intermolecular force weaken. In terms of electrical properties, it cannot effectively block electron migration, resulting in a decrease in volume resistivity and a drop in electrical strength; in terms of weather resistance, the ability to resist external erosion becomes weaker, and the color difference and corrosion rating increase.

[0096] In Comparative Example 3, dimethylstearylamine was not added during the preparation of the composite modified resin, which affected the graft polymerization of hydroxyl acrylic resin and the core layer. Dimethylstearylamine promotes the grafting reaction and makes the shell layer and the core layer closely combined. Without it, the grafting rate decreases, the chemical bonding between the shell layer and the core layer decreases, and the structural stability deteriorates. This makes the material prone to delamination when subjected to external forces and environmental factors, resulting in a decrease in adhesion performance and weather resistance, and an increase in color difference and adhesion grade.

[0097] In Comparative Example 4, all of the main curing agent was replaced with methyl nadic anhydride, changing the curing system. Methyl nadic anhydride alone as the main curing agent has different curing reaction rates and extents from the compounding system, and an ideal cross-linked structure cannot be formed. In terms of insulation performance, the imperfect cross-linked structure will affect charge conduction and electric field distribution, resulting in a drop in electrical strength; in terms of weather resistance, the cured coating has insufficient hardness and toughness, and the ability to resist ultraviolet rays and chemical erosion becomes weaker, and the color difference and corrosion rating increase.

[0098] In Comparative Example 5, all of the main curing agent was replaced with diphenylmethane diisocyanate, also changing the curing system. When diphenylmethane diisocyanate is used alone, its reaction activity with the resin and the properties of the cured product are different from those of the compounding system. The internal stress of the cured coating is relatively large, and microcracks are easily generated, affecting the insulation performance and weather resistance. The volume resistivity decreases slightly, the electrical strength drops, and in the salt spray and aging tests, the microcracks become erosion channels, resulting in an increase in color difference and corrosion rating.

[0099] In Comparative Example 6, the dual curing agent does not add a latent curing accelerator, resulting in incomplete curing. The latent curing accelerator activates the curing reaction under specific conditions to make the curing more complete. The lack of it will cause the curing reaction to stay at a lower level, with insufficient crosslinking density, leading to a decline in the mechanical properties and chemical stability of the material. In terms of insulation performance, it is manifested as a decrease in electrical strength; in terms of weather resistance, the coating is more vulnerable to environmental factors, with an increase in color difference and corrosion rating.

[0100] In Comparative Example 7, the preparation of the latent curing accelerator does not add propylene glycol, which affects the formation of the polyurethane wall material. Propylene glycol participates in the synthesis reaction of polyurethane to regulate the structure and properties of the wall material. Without propylene glycol, the crosslinking degree and flexibility of the polyurethane wall material change, and the coating effect of the microcapsule becomes poor. This makes the latent curing accelerator prone to premature release during storage and use, unable to effectively control the curing reaction, resulting in unstable performance of the curing system and a decline in various performance indicators.

[0101] In Comparative Example 8, an excessive amount of propylene glycol is added in the preparation of the latent curing accelerator, damaging the wall material structure. Excessive propylene glycol will make the molecular chain of the polyurethane wall material too long or over-crosslinked, resulting in the brittleness of the wall material and the destruction of the integrity of the microcapsule. During the extrusion process, the latent curing accelerator will leak prematurely, affecting the orderly progress of the subsequent curing reaction, leading to a decline in insulation performance and weather resistance, a decrease in volume resistivity and electrical strength, and an increase in color difference and corrosion rating.

[0102] In Comparative Example 9, the silane-coupling-agent-modified nano boron nitride in the functional filler is replaced with nano boron nitride, resulting in poor dispersibility and interfacial bonding. Silane-coupling-agent modification can improve the dispersibility of nano boron nitride in the resin matrix and enhance its interfacial bonding force with the resin. Unmodified nano boron nitride is prone to agglomeration, forming stress concentration points in the composite material, reducing the mechanical properties and insulation performance of the material. In terms of electrical properties, the agglomerates partially become conductive channels, reducing the volume resistivity and electrical strength; in terms of weather resistance, the stress concentration points are prone to cause coating cracking, leading to an increase in the corrosion rating.

[0103] In Comparative Example 10, the rutile titanium dioxide coated with silica in the functional filler is replaced with rutile titanium dioxide, resulting in a decline in weather resistance. Silica coating can improve the chemical stability and dispersibility of rutile titanium dioxide, enhancing its ability to shield ultraviolet rays. Uncoated rutile titanium dioxide is prone to photocatalytic reactions under ultraviolet irradiation, leading to coating aging and color change. In the artificial accelerated aging test, the color difference increases significantly and the weather resistance decreases.

[0104] In Comparative Example 11, when two functional fillers were replaced simultaneously, the insulation and weather resistance properties were significantly reduced. On the one hand, unmodified nano boron nitride and uncoated rutile titanium dioxide weakened the material properties in terms of insulation and weather resistance respectively; on the other hand, the synergistic effect between the two fillers and the resin matrix was destroyed, and an effective reinforcement and protection system could not be formed. In terms of insulation performance, the volume resistivity and electrical strength decreased significantly; in terms of weather resistance, the color difference and corrosion rating increased significantly, and the adhesion was also greatly affected.

[0105] In Comparative Example 12, the preparation of silica-coated rutile titanium dioxide was not calcined and replaced by drying, and the coating structure was imperfect. The calcination process can form a dense coating layer of silica on the surface of titanium dioxide, improving its stability and weather resistance. Drying cannot achieve the same effect, the coating layer is loose and cannot effectively block the erosion of ultraviolet rays and chemical substances. In the artificial accelerated aging and salt spray corrosion tests, the coating is easily damaged, the color difference and corrosion rating increase, and the weather resistance decreases.
