Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of flame-retardant conveyor belt technology, specifically relating to an aramid core solid flame-retardant conveyor belt and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Material transportation is a crucial link in the development of various industries, and conveyor belts are an important component of material transportation. In the coal mining and chemical industries, because the materials are flammable and explosive, conveyor belts are required to have good flame-retardant properties to prevent fire accidents.

[0003] Currently, the conveyor belts used in coal mines are mainly solid-woven flame-retardant conveyor belts and steel cord flame-retardant conveyor belts. Compared with steel cord flame-retardant conveyor belts, solid-woven flame-retardant conveyor belts are lighter and more widely used. Traditional solid-woven flame-retardant conveyor belts primarily use nylon, polyester, and cotton fibers as the integral belt core. However, these materials have low strength, requiring multi-layer weaving structures to achieve good strength. This makes impregnation with slurry difficult, affecting the conveyor belt's performance and thus limiting its application.

[0004] Aramid fibers possess advantages such as high strength and modulus, light weight, flame retardancy, and high temperature resistance, making them an ideal skeleton material for high-performance conveyor belts. Traditional aramid-core solid flame-retardant conveyor belts typically consist of a cover layer, an aramid core, and an impregnated rubber / adhesive layer, as illustrated in patent publication number CN 107216560. Chinese patent B discloses a flame-retardant conveyor belt made of aramid fabric and its manufacturing method. The conveyor belt includes a cover layer, an integral aramid fabric core, and a core impregnation compound. The cover layer uses a PVC / CM / TPU blend thermoplastic elastomer, which has good flame retardant properties, high tensile strength, excellent elasticity, good wear resistance, and high adhesion strength to the impregnated integral core. The integral fabric core has a three-layer structure, with radial stress lines made of aramid fibers, resulting in high strength, a thin belt body, and light weight, significantly reducing energy consumption during conveyor belt operation. The core impregnation compound contains MDI tackifier, which greatly improves the adhesion strength between the plasticized integral core and the cover layer, ensuring the conveyor belt does not delaminate during long-term operation. This solution uses vacuum impregnation of the integral core, extrusion molding, and dynamic vulcanization to produce the conveyor belt, resulting in a simple process, low energy consumption, and high production efficiency. However, the cover layer and core impregnation compound in this technical solution mainly use polyvinyl chloride resin as the main component, and polyvinyl chloride resin has poor cold resistance, limiting its use in cold environments.

[0005] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN 117681515 A discloses an environmentally friendly flame-retardant aramid rope conveyor belt and its preparation method. This environmentally friendly flame-retardant aramid rope conveyor belt comprises, from top to bottom, a cover rubber, a core rubber layer, an aramid rope, a core rubber layer, and a cover rubber layer. The cover rubber layer comprises chloroprene rubber, modified chlorosulfonated polyethylene rubber, carbon black, activated glass fiber powder, decabromodiphenyl ether, zinc oxide, zinc borate, magnesium oxide, stearic acid, antioxidant, accelerator, and sulfur. The core rubber layer comprises chloroprene rubber, natural rubber, molybdenum-based high-vinyl polybutadiene rubber, zinc oxide, stearic acid, sulfur, adhesive, accelerator, antioxidant, and coumarone. This technical solution, through the matching and synergy of various systems, ensures the tensile strength, wear resistance, impact resistance, flame retardant and antistatic properties of the rubber compound, as well as the coordination of the components within the core, thereby manufacturing an environmentally friendly flame-retardant aramid rope conveyor belt with excellent comprehensive performance. However, the wear rate in this technical solution is 140mm. 3 The wear and tear was significant, and no attention was paid to cold resistance. Summary of the Invention

[0041] This invention also provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned aramid core solid flame-retardant conveyor belt, comprising the following steps:

[0043] (2) Preparation of adhesive: Chloroprene rubber, natural rubber, styrene-butadiene rubber and bio-based itaconic acid ester rubber are first mixed, then adhesive, silica, zinc oxide and antioxidant are added for second mixing, then sulfur and accelerator are added for third mixing, and after the third mixing is completed, calendering is performed to obtain adhesive.

[0048] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0049] 1. In this invention, the rubber in the cover rubber includes styrene-butadiene rubber, neodymium-based cis-butadiene rubber, natural rubber, and fluororubber. Combined with flame retardants, it forms a high-density cross-linked network after vulcanization. The resulting aramid core solid flame-retardant conveyor belt not only has excellent flame retardancy and wear resistance, but also excellent flexibility at low temperatures. In particular, the combination of specific neodymium-based cis-butadiene rubber and specific fluororubber enables the aramid core solid flame-retardant conveyor belt to still have a high tensile cold resistance coefficient at -50℃. At the same time, the styrene-butadiene rubber, neodymium-based cis-butadiene rubber, natural rubber, and fluororubber in the cover rubber of this invention work together with the bio-based itaconic acid ester rubber in the adhesive to achieve excellent adhesion strength between the cover rubber and the single-layer aramid fiber cloth.

[0050] 2. Freshly mined coal contains a certain amount of moisture on its surface, which easily freezes and adheres to the conveyor belt surface under cold conditions. A conveyor belt with good hydrophobicity can avoid this phenomenon to some extent. Although the fluororubber in the cover rubber of this invention gives the aramid core solid flame-retardant conveyor belt good cold resistance and a certain degree of hydrophobicity, the hydrophobic effect is poor. Therefore, this invention creatively uses fluorosiloxanes and diisocyanates to modify light calcium carbonate and silica, resulting in an aramid core solid flame-retardant conveyor belt with excellent hydrophobic properties. The modified light calcium carbonate... Calcium carbonate and silica contain fluorine and isocyanate groups on their surfaces. During the preparation of the cover rubber, the fluorine groups accumulate on the surface of the cover rubber and work together with specific fluorinated resins to form a continuous fluorinated layer, improving hydrophobic properties. The cross-linking of isocyanate groups and hydroxyl-containing epoxy resins ensures the stable existence of light calcium carbonate and silica in the system. The inventors also unexpectedly discovered that using rose-cluster-shaped and rice-grain-shaped light calcium carbonate can further reduce the wear of aramid core solid flame-retardant conveyor belts and improve the tensile cold resistance coefficient of aramid core solid flame-retardant conveyor belts.

[0108]

[0109] Results analysis:

[0110] As can be seen from Comparative Examples 1-3, when the composition of the cover adhesive (rubber and hydroxyl-containing epoxy resin) changes, the resulting aramid core solid flame-retardant conveyor belt exhibits decreased bonding strength, increased wear, decreased tensile cold resistance coefficient, and decreased water contact angle. This indicates that the rubber and hydroxyl-containing epoxy resin in the cover adhesive of the present invention are indispensable, and specific rubber and hydroxyl-containing epoxy resin are required to achieve higher bonding strength, lower wear, larger tensile cold resistance coefficient, and higher water contact angle.

[0111] As can be seen from Comparative Examples 4-6, the composition of the modified filler in the cover adhesive changes, resulting in a decrease in the bonding strength, an increase in wear, a decrease in the tensile cold resistance coefficient, and a decrease in the water contact angle of the obtained aramid core solid flame-retardant conveyor belt. This indicates that only by using fluorosiloxane and diisocyanate to modify both silica and light calcium carbonate simultaneously, and by using rose-cluster-shaped and rice-grain-shaped light calcium carbonate, can the present invention achieve higher bonding strength, lower wear, a larger tensile cold resistance coefficient, and a higher water contact angle.
