Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of polymer composite foam materials, and in particular relates to a hybrid antistatic EPDM composite foam material and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) is a copolymer obtained by curing and granulating ethylene, propylene and a small amount of a third monomer. It is a type of ethylene propylene rubber. According to the different third monomers added, EPDM can be divided into the following three types: 1,4-hexadiene type, dicyclopentadiene type and ethylidene norbornene type. Its molecular structure is linear and double bonds are introduced in its side chain, so it can be vulcanized with sulfur or peroxides such as diisopropylbenzene peroxide; according to the different propylene content in EPDM, it can be divided into high propylene, medium propylene and low propylene types. At the same time, the higher the propylene content in the main body, the more the elastic properties and mechanical properties of EPDM vulcanizate decrease. The main chain of the polymer is composed of soft segments and hard segments. Among the many types of synthetic rubber materials, EPDM shows the high elasticity of traditional rubber at room temperature, and has the plasticity of ordinary plastics at high temperatures, and has the characteristics of both plastics and rubber. EPDM has high production efficiency and can use common processing technologies for thermoplastics, such as melt blending and extrusion molding. EPDM has excellent chemical stability, electrical insulation, aging resistance and waterproof performance, good ductility, high strength and high filling and plasticizing ability. It is now widely used in automotive engineering, construction engineering, air conditioning, refrigeration and other industries.

[0003] However, EPDM has a very serious static problem during use, and its volume resistivity is generally 10 16 The extremely poor conductivity of EPDM material itself needs to be improved so that it can be used in more aspects. It is necessary to modify the EPDM material to have a certain antistatic function. The addition of antistatic agent can form a conductive network inside the EPDM rubber matrix, so that the accumulated charge can be released faster through the conductive network, thereby improving the static electricity phenomenon. Summary of the invention

[0004] The object of the present invention is to provide a hybrid antistatic EPDM composite foam material, which has good antistatic effect and processing performance.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A hybrid antistatic EPDM composite foaming material comprises, by weight, 80-90 parts of EPDM particles, 10-20 parts of EVA particles, 7-12 parts of antistatic hybrid composite fillers, 2 parts of zinc oxide, 2 parts of stearic acid, 7 parts of azodicarbonamide as a foaming agent, 0.5 parts of dicumyl peroxide as a crosslinking agent, and 2-4 parts of talc.

[0006] Furthermore, the antistatic hybrid composite filler is prepared by compounding acidified carbon fiber-loaded zirconium dioxide oCF@ZrO2 and graphene oxide GO in a mass ratio of 1:1.

[0007] Furthermore, the preparation steps of the acidified carbon fiber loaded zirconium dioxide oCF@ZrO2 are as follows: (1) Preparation of acidified carbon fiber oCF: 35 mL of 98% concentrated sulfuric acid and 15 mL of 68% concentrated nitric acid were mixed, and 4 g of carbon fiber was added to react for 4 h. After centrifugation, the precipitate was vacuum dried at 60 °C for 12 h, and oCF was obtained after grinding. (2) Preparation of acidified carbon fiber loaded zirconium dioxide oCF@ZrO2: After adding carbon fiber to deionized water, ultrasonically oscillate at 25°C until uniformly dispersed, and then transfer to a 60°C water bath for magnetic stirring; then slowly add zirconium dioxide in batches, and continue stirring in a 60°C water bath for 6 hours, then continue stirring at room temperature for 4 hours and let stand overnight; finally, the reaction mixture is centrifuged and dried to obtain acidified carbon fiber loaded zirconium dioxide oCF@ZrO2.

[0008] In step (2), the usage ratio of carbon fiber, zirconium dioxide and deionized water is 2:1:100 mL.

[0009] The drying temperature in step (2) is 60° C. and the drying time is 12 h.

[0010] The preparation method of the graphene oxide GO is as follows: weigh 1g of flake graphite and add it to 60mL of 98% concentrated sulfuric acid, stir and react at room temperature for 30min, then heat to 40°C, slowly add 5g of potassium permanganate in batches, slowly add 100mL of deionized water after reacting for 6h, and heat to 80°C at the same time, then add 5% hydrogen peroxide solution dropwise until the system turns yellow and no bubbles emerge; then add 25mL of 30% hydrochloric acid into the system, and finally add deionized water to 1L of the mixed liquid, let it stand for 12h, centrifuge and wash until the solution is neutral, and then freeze-dry it in a freeze dryer for 48h to obtain graphene oxide GO.

[0011] The present invention also provides a method for preparing the hybrid antistatic EPDM composite foam material, comprising the following steps: (1) EPDM particles, EVA particles, antistatic hybrid composite filler, zinc oxide, stearic acid, foaming agent azodicarbonamide, crosslinking agent diisopropylbenzene peroxide and talcum powder are uniformly mixed on a preheated two-roll mill for 10-20 minutes at a heating temperature of 50-60°C. After the rubber materials are completely mixed, they are thinly passed 4-6 times to obtain 2-4 mm rubber sheets.

[0012] (2) After the rubber sheet obtained in step (1) is air-dried for 4-6 hours, it is placed in the mold cavity of a preheated flat-plate molding machine, and molded and foamed for 450 seconds at 175° C. and 10 MPa. After cooling, a hybrid antistatic EPDM composite foam material can be obtained.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: The acidified carbon fiber loaded with zirconium dioxide oCF@ZrO2 and graphene oxide GO prepared by the present invention and their application in EPDM composite foaming materials have a scientific and reasonable formula and a simple and practical process flow. The surface-acidified carbon fiber is prepared in a relatively green and environmentally friendly manner, and zirconium dioxide is loaded on the surface of the acidified carbon fiber to successfully prepare the acidified carbon fiber loaded with zirconium dioxide oCF@ZrO2. At the same time, the improved Hummers method is used to prepare graphene oxide GO, and the two are combined to obtain an antistatic hybrid filler. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0032] The samples obtained in the embodiments and comparative examples were subjected to performance tests, and the results are shown in Table 1.

At the same time, compared with Comparative Example 1 without adding hybrid antistatic composite filler, Comparative Example 2 with only 10 parts by weight of carbon fiber added, and Comparative Example 3 with only 10 parts by weight of conductive carbon black added, the antistatic effect of the hybrid antistatic EPDM foam material prepared in Example 2 is significantly improved, indicating that the prepared antistatic hybrid composite filler is synergistically antistatic, and a three-dimensional hybrid conductive network is built by the interlacing of zirconium dioxide loaded by acidified carbon fiber in the foaming material and the stacking effect of graphene oxide in the composite foaming material, which is closely combined with the matrix material, achieving the effect of 1+1>2. In addition, compared with the comparative example 4 in which 10 parts of acidified carbon fiber and graphene oxide prepared by the ordinary Hammers method (mass ratio 1:1) were added and the comparative example 5 in which the carbon fiber was not acidified and graphene oxide prepared by the improved Hammers method (mass ratio 1:1), the resistance of Example 2 was still greatly reduced, indicating that the graphene oxide prepared by the improved Hammers method and the acidification of the carbon fiber have a good improvement effect on the antistatic effect of the EPDM foam material, and also have a certain improvement in the mechanical properties.
