Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of polymer materials, and particularly relates to a two-component polyurethane composition, a preparation method thereof, and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] At present, during the assembly process of lithium-ion power batteries, polyurethane thermal conductive structural adhesives are widely used in cell fixing and bonding, as well as heat dissipation of modules and liquid cooling plates. With the promulgation of energy storage battery standards and the society's attention to the safety of new energy vehicle batteries, the entire power battery industry attaches particular importance to the reliability of battery packs after facing harsh conditions such as high-frequency vibration, high and low temperatures, high humidity, and stress shocks. The requirements for the substrate bonding strength, elongation at break, and elastic modulus of polyurethane thermal conductive adhesives are also getting higher and higher.

[0003] The polyurethane structural adhesive plays a role in bonding and fixing in the power battery pack. The fatigue resistance and high-temperature resistance of the adhesive layer are particularly crucial, directly affecting the thermal conductivity, aging resistance, fatigue vibration resistance, service life, and use safety of the power battery. The fatigue resistance of the polyurethane structural adhesive is determined by two performance indicators, namely elongation at break and elastic modulus. However, the existing polyurethane structural adhesives have a low elongation at break and a high modulus, making it difficult to meet the requirements for the fatigue resistance of the adhesive layer in current power battery packs. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention aims to at least solve one of the above technical problems existing in the prior art. For this purpose, the object of the present invention is to provide a two-component polyurethane composition, which, through the combination of specific components, has a high elongation at break, a low modulus, and high thermal conductivity after curing.

[0005] The second aspect of the present invention lies in providing a preparation method of a two-component polyurethane composition.

[0006] The third aspect of the present invention lies in providing a two-component polyurethane structural adhesive.

[0007] The fourth aspect of the present invention lies in providing an application of a two-component polyurethane structural adhesive.

[0008] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solutions adopted by the present invention are as follows:

[0009] The first aspect of the present invention provides a two-component polyurethane composition, comprising component A and component B;

[0010] Component A includes castor oil-modified polyol, polyether polyol I, polyether polyol II, thermal conductive filler, and a first auxiliary agent; polyether polyol I is a small molecule polyether polyol; polyether polyol II is a polyether polyol containing an aliphatic chain;

[0011] Component B includes polyurethane prepolymer I, polyurethane prepolymer II, a thermal conductive filler, and a second auxiliary agent; polyurethane prepolymer I is obtained by polymerizing poly(propylene carbonate) diol and carbodiimide-modified MDI; polyurethane prepolymer II is obtained by polymerizing poly(propylene carbonate) diol and HDI trimer; both polyurethane prepolymer I and polyurethane prepolymer II are NCO-terminated polyurethane prepolymers.

[0012] In the two-component polyurethane composition of the present invention, different polyether polyols and castor oil-modified polyols are used in combination for component A. Among them, the castor oil-modified polyol itself has high hydrophobicity and can effectively improve the moisture and heat aging resistance of the thermal conductive adhesive. At the same time, small molecule polyether polyols can provide appropriate crosslinking points. When combined with polyether polyols containing aliphatic chains, the molecular chain flexibility is increased, the modulus is reduced, and when the obtained two-component polyurethane composition is used as a structural adhesive, the bonding strength to PET and metal substrates is improved.

[0013] In the present invention, specific polyurethane prepolymers are introduced into component B, mainly obtained by polymerizing carbodiimide-modified isocyanate or HDI trimer with flexible molecular chain polyols. The carbodiimide-modified isocyanate (diphenylmethane diisocyanate, MDI) prepolymer can improve the moisture and heat resistance and elongation at break; the polyurethane prepolymer synthesized from HDI (hexamethylene diisocyanate) trimer has both high strength and high elongation at break. By using the two polyurethane prepolymers in combination, the obtained two-component composition has the characteristics of moisture and heat resistance, low modulus, high elongation at break, and high bonding strength after curing.

[0014] In addition, a thermal conductive filler is introduced into both component A and component B of the present invention to improve the thermal conductivity.

[0015] Therefore, through the combination of specific components, the two-component polyurethane composition obtained in the present invention can be used as a structural adhesive and has high elongation at break, low modulus, high thermal conductivity, high moisture and heat resistance, and high bonding strength after curing, and has excellent fatigue resistance and high temperature resistance.

[0131] Table 3 Performance test results of two-component polyurethane compositions of examples and comparative examples as structural adhesives

[0132]

[0133] As can be seen from the results in Table 3, the two-component polyurethane composition obtained in the examples of the present invention can be used as a structural adhesive. Its viscosity is moderate, remaining in the range of 70,000 to 140,000 mPa·s. After curing, it has a high thermal conductivity of not less than 1.28 W / (m·K), a bulk tensile strength of not less than 8 MPa, an elongation at break of not less than 99%, a tensile modulus of not exceeding 225 MPa, an elastic modulus of not exceeding 460 MPa, and a shear strength of not less than 9.5 MPa. It has the characteristics of high elongation at break, low modulus, high thermal conductivity, and high bonding strength, and its comprehensive performance is excellent. In Comparative Example 1, polyether polyol II is not used and the amount of polyether polyol I is small, resulting in a low crosslinking density. In Comparative Example 2, NCO-terminated polyurethane prepolymer II and polyether polyol I are not used, and the crosslinking density is also low.
