Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of coatings, and specifically to a flame-retardant and fire-proof coating and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Epoxy resin coatings have the advantages of high anti-corrosion performance, good insulation performance, and high mechanical strength, and are widely used. Traditional epoxy resin coatings have problems such as poor flame retardancy and poor toughness, which limit their practical applications in the field of flame retardancy and fire protection. Usually, flame retardants are added to epoxy resin coatings, such as phosphorus-containing flame retardants, intumescent flame retardants, brominated flame retardants, etc.

[0003] Intumescent flame retardants integrate acid source, carbon source and gas source, and have high carbonization performance and high flame retardancy. Commonly used epoxy resin toughening agents include polyethers, organosilicons, substances containing flexible long aliphatic chains, etc. Patent CN113292852B discloses a resin composition containing a phosphorus-containing bisphenol polymer, its preparation method and application. By reacting phenylphosphonyl dichloride or phenyl dichlorophosphate with a tetramethyl bisphenol compound, a phosphorus-containing bisphenol polymer flame retardant is obtained, which improves the properties such as the glass transition temperature and flame retardancy of epoxy resin. However, the patent does not solve the problem of poor toughness such as the impact strength of epoxy resin. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Aiming at the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention solves the problems of poor flame retardancy and toughness of epoxy resin coatings.

[0005] The present invention provides a flame-retardant and fire-proof coating, which includes 100 parts by weight of epoxy resin, 3 - 12 parts by weight of polyphosphate-indole flame retardant, 6.8 - 11.5 parts by weight of curing agent, 0.5 - 1 part by weight of defoaming agent, 0.3 - 0.6 part by weight of leveling agent, and 0.2 - 0.4 part by weight of wetting agent.

[0006] The preparation method of the flame-retardant and fire-proof coating is as follows: Add epoxy resin, polyphosphate-indole flame retardant, curing agent, defoaming agent, leveling agent, and wetting agent to a n-butanol solvent, stir and mix evenly to obtain the flame-retardant and fire-proof coating.

[0007] Preferably, the curing agent is ethylenediamine, diethylenetriamine or triethylenetetramine.

[0008] Preferably, the preparation method of the polyphosphate-indole flame retardant is as follows: (1) Add 6,12-diphenolyl-5,11-dihydroindolo[3,2-b]carbazole and benzyltriethylammonium chloride to dimethyl sulfoxide, and add an aqueous sodium hydroxide solution and 1-bromoalkane (structural formula: Br-C n H 2n+1),(Stir and react at 20 - 30 °C for 6 - 10 h), add water for dilution, precipitate the sediment, filter by suction, wash with water, and recrystallize the product in a mixed solution of N,N - dimethylformamide and chloroform to obtain the diphenol - based alkyl indole intermediate.

[0009] .

[0010] (2) Add phenyl dichlorophosphate, diphenol - based alkyl indole intermediate, and triethylamine to N,N - dimethylformamide, stir and react at 30 - 50 °C for 12 - 18 h, then add the diphenol - based alkyl indole intermediate again, continue to stir and react for 0.5 - 1 h, pour the solution into water to precipitate the sediment, wash successively with water and ethanol after filtration, and dry to obtain the polyphosphate - indole flame retardant. The reaction formula is: .

[0011] Preferably, in (1), the molar ratio of 6,12 - diphenol - 5,11 - dihydroindolo[3,2 - b]carbazole, benzyltriethylammonium chloride, sodium hydroxide, and 1 - bromoalkane is 1:(0.008 - 0.01):(10 - 12):(2.4 - 2.8).

[0012] Preferably, in (1), the molecular formula of 1 - bromoalkane is Br - C n H 2n+1 , where n is any integer from 10 to 16.

[0013] Preferably, in (2), the molar ratio of phenyl dichlorophosphate, diphenol - based alkyl indole intermediate, and triethylamine is 1:(1.04 - 1.08):(2.1 - 2.2).

[0014] The beneficial technical effects of the present invention: The present invention conducts a phosphoesterification polymerization reaction on the diphenol - based alkyl indole intermediate and phenyl dichlorophosphate to obtain the polyphosphate - indole flame retardant, which contains phosphates and indole nitrogen - containing heterocycles as the acid source and gas source, and at the same time contains a polyaromatic condensed ring structure as the carbon source, forming an intumescent flame retardant. It can effectively improve the char - forming property and mass residue rate of the cured product of the epoxy resin coating. During combustion, it promotes the dehydration of the polyaromatic condensed ring structure and the epoxy resin matrix to form an intumescent carbon layer, which can inhibit the contact between oxygen and the epoxy resin matrix, prevent heat conduction, inhibit the combustion reaction process, and at the same time play a role in inhibiting the escape of smoke, significantly reducing the peak value of the heat release rate, the total heat release, and the total smoke release, showing excellent flame - retardant performance.

[0015] The hydroxyl groups at the ends of the polyphosphate - indole flame retardant of the present invention react with the epoxy groups of the epoxy resin during the high - temperature thermal curing reaction, thereby grafting the flame retardant into the epoxy resin curing system, improving the interfacial bonding strength between the flame retardant and the epoxy resin, having less influence on the mechanical properties of the epoxy resin cured product. At the same time, the flame retardant contains a flexible aliphatic long chain, which has a good toughening effect on the epoxy resin, significantly improving the impact strength and toughness of the cured product.

[0036] Table 1 Coating Performance Test

[0037] After testing, compared with the epoxy resin coating of Comparative Example 1, polyphosphate-indole flame retardants were added to Examples 1-3. It contains phosphate ester and indole nitrogen-containing heterocycle, serving as the acid source and gas source, and at the same time contains polyaromatic hydrocarbon condensed ring structure, serving as the carbon source, forming an intumescent flame retardant, which improves the charring property and mass residue rate of the cured coating. During combustion, it promotes the dehydration of the polyaromatic hydrocarbon condensed ring structure and the epoxy resin matrix to form an intumescent carbon layer, which can inhibit the contact between oxygen and the epoxy resin matrix, prevent heat conduction, inhibit the combustion reaction process, and at the same time play a role in inhibiting the escape of smoke, significantly reducing the peak value of the heat release rate, the total heat release, and the total smoke release, showing excellent flame retardant performance. Moreover, the terminal hydroxyl groups of the polyphosphate-indole flame retardant react with the epoxy groups of the epoxy resin during the high-temperature thermal curing reaction, thereby grafting the flame retardant onto the epoxy resin curing system, improving the interfacial bonding strength between the flame retardant and the epoxy resin, having less impact on the mechanical properties of the epoxy resin cured product. At the same time, the flame retardant contains flexible aliphatic long chains, which have a good toughening effect on the epoxy resin, significantly improving the impact strength and toughness of the cured product.

[0038] Compared with Example 1, in Comparative Example 2, diphenyl phosphate and 4,4'-biphenol were reacted to obtain a polyphosphate flame retardant that does not contain an indole nitrogen-containing heterocycle and does not contain a polyaromatic hydrocarbon condensed ring structure, making it difficult to effectively form an intumescent flame retardant, not improving the charring property and mass residue rate of the cured coating well, resulting in a larger peak value of the heat release rate, total heat release, and total smoke release, with poor flame retardant performance. And it does not contain flexible aliphatic long chains, unable to achieve a toughening effect, resulting in a lower impact strength of the epoxy resin cured product.

[0039] In Comparative Example 3, 1-bromopropane was used as the raw material, and the resulting diphenolic alkyl indole intermediate and polyphosphate-indole flame retardant do not contain flexible aliphatic long chains, unable to achieve a toughening effect, resulting in a lower impact strength of the epoxy resin cured product.

[0040] The preferred specific embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above. It should be understood that those of ordinary skill in the art can make many modifications and variations based on the concept of the present invention without creative labor. Therefore, all technical solutions that can be obtained by those skilled in the art in the technical field of the present invention based on the concept of the present invention through logical analysis, reasoning, or limited experiments on the basis of the prior art should fall within the protection scope determined by the claims.
