Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of oil and gas pipelines, and particularly relates to an adhesive for a fiberglass composite pipe joint. The present invention also relates to a preparation method of the adhesive. Background Art

[0002] Due to a series of advantages such as excellent corrosion resistance, high strength, smooth inner surface, high wear resistance, anti-aging, and long service life, fiberglass composite pipes have become one of the important non-metallic pipes for solving the corrosion problem of oilfield surface gathering and transportation pipe networks in China. They are now widely used in fields such as oilfield gathering, water injection, and sewage treatment. Fiberglass composite pipes usually have a polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride resin, polyethylene, or other modified thermoplastic resin as the inner layer pipe, and a fiberglass layer formed by continuous glass fibers impregnated with a thermosetting resin as the structural layer. The connection joints of the pipes are usually made of metal, and a high-performance adhesive is used to connect the metal joints and the pipe body into one. With the extension of the service time and the influence of the high-temperature environment of the transported medium, if the adhesive is not properly selected, the problem of composite pipe joint detachment and failure frequently occurs, posing a severe challenge to the safe production and environmental protection of oilfields.

[0003] The main reasons for the failure of the adhesive connection are: first, the poor adhesion between the adhesive and the fiberglass pipe body interface; second, the long curing time of the adhesive; third, the low tensile shear strength of the adhesive, which cannot meet the requirements of the working conditions. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an adhesive for a fiberglass composite pipe joint, which solves the problems of long curing time and low tensile shear strength existing in the prior art.

[0005] Another purpose of the present invention is to provide a preparation method of the above adhesive.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by the present invention is that the adhesive for a fiberglass composite pipe joint is composed of the following raw materials by mass: 100 parts of epoxy prepolymer, 30 parts - 40 parts of polyetheramine ketone imine, 8 parts - 12 parts of polyurethane prepolymer, 40 parts - 45 parts of 800-mesh heavy calcium carbonate, 12 - 16 parts of 80 - 140-mesh quartz sand, 2 - 4 parts of fumed silica, 6 parts - 10 parts of short glass fibers or short carbon fibers with a specification of 3 - 5 mm, 0.5 parts - 1.5 parts of dispersant, 0.5 parts - 1 part of aluminum trichloride, and 0.5 - 1 part of accelerator.

[0007] The present invention is further characterized in that:

[0008] The epoxy prepolymer is prepared by adding 20 parts by mass of polyetheramine D2000 to 100 parts of bisphenol A epoxy resin E-51 at room temperature and stirring evenly to transparency at 120°C.

[0009] The epoxy equivalent of bisphenol A epoxy resin E-51 is 700-750, and the softening point is 90°C-100°C.

[0010] The molecular structure of polyetheramine ketone imine is shown in Formula 1. Polyetheramine ketone imine uses a strongly acidic ion exchange resin with sulfonic acid groups as a catalyst. 4-Methyl-2-pentanone is heated to 70°C, and then polyetheramine D400 is titrated and added. The molar ratio of polyetheramine D400 to 4-methyl-2-pentanone is 1:2.5. It is refluxed for 1 hour at 120°C. Finally, the water generated in the reactants is separated by distillation, and the remaining light yellow transparent liquid is refined by vacuum distillation to obtain polyetheramine ketone imine.

[0011]

[0012] The polyurethane prepolymer is a polyurethane prepolymer with an active isocyanate group at the end and an activity of 1.

[0013] The accelerator is 2,4,6-tris(dimethylaminomethyl)phenol.

[0014] Another technical solution adopted by the present invention is a preparation method for an adhesive for a fiberglass composite pipe joint, which is specifically implemented according to the following steps:

[0015] Step 1: Weigh 100 parts of epoxy prepolymer, 30-40 parts of polyetheramine ketone imine, 8-12 parts of solid polyurethane prepolymer, 40-45 parts of 800-mesh heavy calcium carbonate, 12-16 parts of 80-140-mesh quartz sand, 2-4 parts of fumed silica, 6-10 parts of 3-5 mm short glass fibers or short carbon fibers, 0.5-1.5 parts of dispersant, 0.5-1 part of aluminum trichloride, and 0.5-1 part of accelerator respectively;

[0016] Step 2: Take the epoxy prepolymer, polyetheramine ketone imine, and polyurethane prepolymer and mix and stir them for 10 minutes;

[0017] Step 3: Take the dispersant, heavy calcium carbonate, quartz sand, and fumed silica, and add them to the mixture prepared in Step 2, and stir for 10 minutes;

[0018] Step 4: Take aluminum trichloride, accelerator, and short glass fibers or short carbon fibers and add them to the mixture prepared in Step 3, and stir for 10 minutes to obtain the adhesive.

[0019] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0020] The glass fiber reinforced plastic composite pipe joint adhesive provided by the present invention belongs to a one-component room temperature curing adhesive. The epoxy resin is internally toughened and modified with polyetheramine D2000, which not only improves the tensile shear strength of the adhesive, but also increases the room temperature curing rate, facilitating construction; the polyurethane prepolymer can react with both the epoxy resin and the amine generated after the ketimine decomposes in the presence of water, thereby forming an interpenetrating network, improving the properties of the epoxy resin cured product, and at the same time accelerating the curing speed of the epoxy resin; the added aluminum trichloride generates hydrochloric acid when it encounters water, which can also accelerate the curing reaction speed. The present invention uses polyetheramine ketimine as a wet state curing agent, in combination with a variety of accelerators and polyurethane prepolymer crosslinking agents. The final adhesive has a short curing time and excellent performance, meeting the predetermined indicators. The present invention can be used as an adhesive for bonding metal joints of glass fiber reinforced plastic composite pipes, and is suitable for connecting pipe joints under harsh and complex working conditions such as the transportation of corrosive media at high temperatures, and has broad application prospects.
