AI Technical Summary
Existing water-based polyurethane waterproofing materials are prone to aging and cracking after prolonged exposure to the outdoors, resulting in a decline in waterproofing performance. Repairing them is difficult and costly, and existing self-healing materials may affect the flexibility of the coating or pose a risk of secondary cracking.
By adding chloroprene rubber emulsion and microbial self-healing agent powder to waterborne polyurethane waterproof materials, self-healing is achieved through microbial calcification and deposition at cracks. Combined with modified waterborne polyurethane dispersion, the material's aging resistance and flexibility are improved.
It achieves excellent waterproof performance during long-term outdoor use, automatically repairs minor cracks, reduces repair difficulty and cost, and maintains high tensile strength and low-temperature flexibility.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of building materials technology, specifically relating to a single-component self-healing waterborne polyurethane waterproof material and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Water-based polyurethane waterproof coating is an environmentally friendly high-molecular polymer elastic waterproof material. The product is non-toxic and odorless, with excellent adhesion and impermeability. It exhibits strong adhesion to mortar, cementitious surfaces, stone, and metal products. The product is chemically stable, can withstand long-term sunlight exposure, and possesses high strength, high elongation, good elasticity, and excellent waterproofing performance. This material is suitable for national key projects and general waterproofing projects, such as roofs, corrugated steel sheets, basements, civil defense projects, kitchens and bathrooms, culverts, tunnels, bridges, and water tanks. It can also be used for corrosion protection of metal pipes, workshop floors, and water tanks. Its characteristics include: single-component waterproofing, cold application, non-toxic and harmless; application to damp, dry, or non-wet substrates; a tough and highly elastic coating; strong adhesion to brick, mortar, concrete, metal, foam board, and insulation layers; safe and simple construction with a short construction period.
[0003] Since most of the roof waterproofing layer is exposed to the atmosphere, it will age and crack after long-term exposure to wind and sun, which will have a significant impact on the waterproofing effect. Later repairs will be difficult and costly. If some small cracks are not properly repaired, they will further aggravate the phenomenon of water accumulation and leakage.
[0004] Patent document CN114410209A describes a dual self-healing composite anti-corrosion coating formed by modifying graphene oxide sheets with TiO2 nanocapsules loaded with corrosion inhibitors and multi-branched waterborne polyurethane (WPU). However, it is expensive, and cracks remain on the surface after self-healing, posing a risk of secondary cracking.
[0005] Patent document CN112876690A uses metal oxides such as iron oxide nanoparticles as reinforcing fillers and utilizes the excellent self-healing and stimulus-response properties of metal-organic ligand coordination bonds to obtain a high-strength, fast-self-healing waterborne polyurethane composite material. However, this reduces the flexibility of the coating itself and makes it prone to cracking. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention provides a single-component self-healing waterborne polyurethane waterproofing material and its preparation method, as well as a slurry and its preparation method. The single-component self-healing waterborne polyurethane waterproofing material and its preparation method of this invention incorporate a chloroprene rubber emulsion with good aging and corrosion resistance into the waterborne polyurethane waterproofing. This results in a waterproof layer with excellent tensile strength, elongation, peel strength, and low-temperature flexibility, while also exhibiting excellent weather resistance for prolonged outdoor exposure and the ability to automatically repair minor cracks that appear later.

[0018] The microbial self-healing agent powder comprises the following preparation steps:
[0019] S1. Glucose was selected as the culture medium for microbial inoculum and cultured for 24 hours at 35-40℃, pH between 6.5 and 7.5, and dissolved oxygen concentration above 20%.
[0020] In a vacuum environment, a culture medium containing microbial bacterial solution is mixed with a molecular sieve and adsorbed for 48 to 72 hours to prepare microbial self-healing particles.
[0021] After drying the microbial self-healing particles in an environment of 40℃~60℃ for 48 hours, they were ground and sieved to prepare a microbial self-healing agent powder of 250 mesh~350 mesh.
[0022] A further optimization of the single-component self-healing waterborne polyurethane waterproofing material of the present invention is as follows:
[0023] The modified waterborne polyurethane dispersion is a modified waterborne polyurethane dispersion modified with a silane coupling agent, wherein the silane coupling agent is one or a combination of several of vinyl silane coupling agents, epoxy silane coupling agents, and amino silane coupling agents.
[0024] A further optimization of the single-component self-healing waterborne polyurethane waterproofing material of the present invention is as follows:

[0026] A further optimization of the single-component self-healing waterborne polyurethane waterproofing material of the present invention is as follows:
[0027] The molecular sieves mentioned are zeolite molecular sieves and ZSM molecular sieves, and their structures include type A, type X, and type Y; the diameter of the molecular sieves is 1 mm to 2 mm.
[0028] The second objective of this invention is:
[0029] A method for preparing the aforementioned single-component self-healing waterborne polyurethane waterproof material is provided, comprising the following preparation steps:
[0030] S1. Weigh out the water according to the proportion and add it accurately, then turn on low-speed stirring;
[0031] S2. Slowly add cellulose while stirring at 500 rpm and stir thoroughly for 10 minutes;
[0032] S3. Add pH adjuster, dispersant, defoamer, modified waterborne polyurethane dispersion and chloroprene rubber latex in sequence while stirring at 500 rpm, and stir thoroughly for 5 min;

[0036] (1) The addition of chloroprene rubber emulsion and water-based polyurethane emulsion to the formula improves the aging resistance, oil resistance and chemical corrosion resistance of the waterproof coating.

[0038] The single-component self-healing waterborne polyurethane waterproofing material of the present invention ensures the waterproofing effect of the coating while shortening the self-healing time of cracks.
[0039] The single-component self-healing waterborne polyurethane waterproof material of the present invention has the following technical features:
[0040] (1) The waterproof layer formed by the waterproof material of the present invention can repair the cracks and maintain the waterproof effect by calcifying and settling the self-healing microorganisms added to it in a water-cultured state when small cracks appear.
