Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of polymer materials, and particularly relates to a method for preparing a polyester-based permanent antistatic material by in-situ polymerization and composite with nano metal oxides and the obtained product. Background Art
[0002] In plastic and rubber products, static electricity accumulation may lead to surface dirt adsorption of materials, performance degradation, and electrostatic discharge (ESD) problems during the production process. To solve these problems, researchers have gradually recognized that metal oxides such as aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3 ), zinc oxide (ZnO), and titanium oxide (TiO 2 ) etc. can be used as antistatic agents in polymer materials.
[0003] However, the effective application of metal oxide antistatic agents faces several key technical challenges. The antistatic mechanism of metal oxides is to form a percolation conductive network in the polymer matrix by their particles to dissipate static charges and achieve the antistatic effect. However, since metal oxides are usually difficult to be uniformly dispersed in the polymer matrix, the formation of charge transport channels requires a large amount of metal oxide filling, which will lead to a decrease in the overall physical properties of the finally obtained polymer material, such as difficult coloring, easy falling off of fillers, etc., restricting their application in the field of polymer antistatic. Summary of the Invention
[0004] Aiming at the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention modifies the nano metal oxides doped with metals, and combines in-situ polymerization to prepare an antistatic composite material, and a polyester-based permanent antistatic material can be obtained. It not only has a low addition amount, but also can utilize the catalytic effect of the metal oxide itself to accelerate the in-situ polymerization reaction of polyester, and can also improve the chromaticity of the material.
[0005] The specific technical solution of the present invention is as follows:
[0006] In the first aspect of the present invention, a method for preparing a polyester-based permanent antistatic material by in-situ polymerization and composite with nano metal oxides is provided, including the following steps:
[0007] 1) Preparation of composite antistatic agent solution: uniformly disperse the nano metal oxides doped with metals and a dispersant in a solvent to obtain a composite antistatic agent solution;
[0008] 2) Pulping of raw materials: select and prepare at least one dicarboxylic acid or its ester derivative and at least one diol as monomers of polyester, and add them to the composite antistatic agent solution obtained in step 1) for mixing and pulping;
[0009] 3) Esterification reaction: add the pulped slurry to a catalyst for esterification reaction;
[0010] 4) Polycondensation reaction: After the esterification is completed, a stabilizer and a co-dispersant are added, and polycondensation is carried out to obtain the polyester-based permanent antistatic material.
[0011] By selecting a composite of a doped-metal nano-metal oxide and a dispersant, its dispersibility in the polymer matrix is improved, so that the nano-metal oxide antistatic agent is uniformly dispersed in the polyester matrix, and the size effect of the nanoparticles is exerted. While endowing the polyester with antistatic performance, its original transparency and mechanical properties are ensured, the use of the antistatic agent is reduced, thereby reducing the impact on the mechanical properties and processing properties of the polyester matrix and lowering the production cost.
[0012] In some of the embodiments, the doped-metal nano-metal oxide is one or more of indium tin oxide, zinc oxide doped with gallium, zinc oxide doped with aluminum, and tin oxide doped with antimony.
[0013] In some of the embodiments, the dispersant is one or more of sodium citrate, terephthalic acid, polyacrylic acid, sodium polyacrylate, polyethylene glycol, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyacrylamide, sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, silicon dioxide, silane coupling agent, and sodium pyrophosphate.
[0014] In some of the embodiments, the solution is a mixture of one or more of water, ethanol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, isopropanol, and butanediol.
[0015] In some of the embodiments, in the composite antistatic agent solution, by weight percentage, the doped-metal nano-metal oxide is 5% - 20%, the dispersant is 0.1% - 5%, and the balance is the solution.
[0016] In some of the embodiments, in step 1), the composite antistatic agent solution is obtained by dispersion through ultrasonic or ball milling. Among them, the ultrasonic dispersion time is 5 - 240 min, the frequency is 20 kHz, the interval is 10 s, and the power is 100 - 500 W; the ball milling dispersion time is 12 - 144 h, and the rotation speed is 50 - 1200 rpm.
[0017] The polyester synthesis raw materials in the embodiments of the present invention mainly include dibasic acids or their ester derivatives and diols. The dibasic acids or their ester derivatives include but are not limited to polyterephthalic acid, polyethylene terephthalate and its derivatives, poly(2,5-furandicarboxylic acid), poly(ethylene 2,5-furandicarboxylate), etc. The diols include or are not limited to ethylene glycol, isosorbide, etc.
[0018] The polyester raw materials need to be dried before pulping and should be taken immediately for pulping after drying.
[0019] In some of these embodiments, in step 2), the addition amount of the composite antistatic agent is 0.01 wt% to 18 wt% of the weight of the polyester monomer raw material; in the polyester monomer raw material, in terms of molar ratio, dibasic acid or its ester derivative: diol = 1: 1.1 to 1.6.
[0020] In some of these embodiments, in step 2), the beating time is 5 to 120 min and the temperature is 10 to 120 °C.
[0021] In some of these embodiments, in step 3), the catalyst is one or a combination of more of stibium-based, titanium-based, germanium-based, and aluminum-based catalysts; in terms of mass ratio, dibasic acid or its ester derivative: catalyst = 100: 0.01 to 0.1.
[0022] In some of these embodiments, step 3) includes the steps:
[0023] 3.1 Mix the beaten slurry and the catalyst, then control the temperature at 80 to 110 °C, and stir at 100 to 120 rpm for 10 to 15 min under nitrogen protection;
[0024] 3.2 In the initial stage of the esterification reaction, when the temperature is 150 to 200 °C, replace nitrogen continuously 2 to 3 times within 3 to 10 min to make the reaction pressure change rapidly periodically;
[0025] 3.3 Esterification stage: After replacing nitrogen, maintain the reaction temperature at 220 to 250 °C and the pressure at 370 to 390 kPa, adjust the rotation speed once every 30 min, and cycle and switch in the order of 60 rpm, 90 rpm, and 120 rpm for stirring in turn. When the water output reaches above the theoretical value, relieve the pressure to atmospheric pressure.
[0026] In some of these embodiments, step 4) is: Add a stabilizer and a co-dispersant, first raise the temperature to 260 to 280 °C, react for 50 to 70 min, then reduce the absolute pressure in the kettle to 20 to 100 Pa, and continue to react until the intrinsic viscosity of the end condensate is 0.6 to 1.2 dL / g, and the reaction time is 0.5 to 4 h.
[0027] In some of these embodiments, the stabilizer is one or more of phosphoric acid, phosphorous acid, dimethyl phosphate, trimethyl phosphate, triethyl phosphate, and triphenyl phosphite; the co-dispersant is one or more of silica, calcium carbonate, magnesium hydroxide, magnesium acetate, sodium silicate, magnesium stearate, zinc stearate, polyethylene glycol, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinylpyrrolidone, and polyacrylamide; in terms of mass ratio, dibasic acid or its ester derivative: stabilizer: co-dispersant = 100: 0.01 to 0.1: 0.05 to 0.25.
[0028] By controlling process conditions, adjusting the internal reaction environment during the reaction, and utilizing the protection of air pressure changes and co-dispersants, the surface energy of the nano-metal oxide is reduced, the mutual agglomeration between nano-particles is decreased, and at the same time, the reduction damage of groups such as aldehyde groups generated by side reactions to the nano-metal oxide is reduced, enabling it to be uniformly dispersed in the polymer matrix to form a conductive network. Moreover, due to the catalytic effect of the metal oxide itself, it can not only improve the antistatic performance of the polyester material, but also accelerate the reaction rates of esterification and polycondensation, thereby improving production efficiency. Meanwhile, doping with metal oxides can also improve the color of the sample.
[0029] In the second aspect of the present invention, there is also provided a polyester-based permanent antistatic material prepared by the described method.
[0030] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0031] 1. Low addition amount: Utilizing the size effect of the nano-metal oxide, the prepared polyester material can have good antistatic effects at a smaller addition amount, without affecting the processing performance at the same time, and reducing production costs.
[0032] 2. Uniform dispersion of nano-particles: By controlling process conditions and formula selection, controlling the internal environment of the reaction during the reaction process, and utilizing the protection of air pressure changes and co-dispersants, the surface energy of the nano-metal oxide is reduced, the mutual agglomeration between nano-particles is decreased, and at the same time, the reduction damage of groups such as aldehyde groups generated by side reactions to the nano-metal oxide is reduced, enabling it to be uniformly dispersed in the polymer matrix to form a conductive network.
[0033] 3. Catalytic reaction: By using the catalytic effect of the metal oxide itself and producing the polyester material through in-situ polymerization, it can not only improve the antistatic performance of the polyester material, but also incorporate its functions into the polymerization reaction, accelerate the reaction rates of esterification and polycondensation, and improve production efficiency.
[0034] 4. Color improvement: After adding doped nano-metal oxides such as ITO to the polyester, not only the electrical conductivity is improved, but the color of its sliced products is also improved. With little change in the b value of the sliced samples, the whiteness of the slices increases.
[0035] The present invention combines a conductive nano-metal oxide antistatic agent with polyester raw materials, and then uses an in-situ polymerization method to prepare polyester. During the preparation process, the process is adjusted to enable the nano-metal oxide antistatic agent to be uniformly dispersed in the polyester matrix, exerting the size effect of the nano-particles, ensuring the antistatic performance of the polyester while maintaining its original transparency and mechanical properties, reducing the use of the antistatic agent, thereby reducing the impact on the mechanical properties and processing performance of the polyester matrix and lowering production costs.
