Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of pesticides, and in particular relates to a heat-stable pesticide microcapsule and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] The traditional methods of using pesticides such as imidacloprid, clothianidin and acetamiprid are spraying, dusting and irrigation, but these methods of using pesticides can easily lead to excessive use of pesticides. More seriously, they may flow into the surface through surface water, runoff and wetlands, causing water environment pollution. Therefore, a new technology with a slow-release effect is needed to overcome the problems caused by traditional methods of using pesticides.
[0003] At present, microencapsulation technology mainly adopts interfacial polymerization, condensed phase separation, in situ polymerization or solvent volatilization to completely encapsulate a certain target object (core or inner phase) with a continuous film (wall or outer phase) of various natural or synthetic polymer compounds, and maintain the original chemical properties of the target object. Then, through certain external stimulation or sustained release, the function of the target object is gradually presented externally again, or the shielding effect of the capsule wall is relied on to protect the core material. Insecticide microcapsules prepared with insecticides such as imidacloprid, clothianidin and acetamiprid as the core material of microcapsules can reduce some problems caused by excessive use of insecticides by utilizing the sustained release effect of microcapsules.
[0004] There are many ways to lay cables, including overhead laying, wall laying, tunnel laying, pipeline laying, direct burial laying, etc. Except for overhead cables, cables laid in other ways will be attacked by pests such as termites, especially direct burial. Laying cables underground is prone to termite erosion. Burying insecticide microcapsules around directly buried cables can reduce termite erosion. However, when the voltage and current carried by the cable are high, a large amount of heat is generated during the operation of the cable, resulting in a continuous heating state. At present, the operating temperature of cross-linked polyethylene cables can usually reach 90°C. In addition, when the cable is overloaded or short-circuited, the temperature may even exceed 200°C. High temperature will affect the stability of the insecticide microcapsules and reduce the anti-termite effect of the insecticide microcapsules. In order to maintain the anti-termite effect, the insecticide microcapsules need to be re-buried, which leads to increased costs. The above situation can be avoided by improving the thermal stability of the insecticide microcapsules. Summary of the invention

[0093] Experimental Example 1
[0094] Experimental Example 1 of the present application analyzes the structure and performance of the insecticide microcapsules provided in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Example 1.
[0095] The electron microscope structure analysis results of the insecticide microcapsules provided in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-2 are shown in FIG. Figure 1-5 shown; from Figure 1-3 It can be seen that the insecticide microcapsules provided in Examples 1-3 of the present application use an emulsifier and deionized water as the aqueous phase, pesticides, polylactic acid and prepolymer as the oil phase, the prepolymer is obtained by reacting hexamethylene diisocyanate with polytetrahydrofuran, and the oil phase and the aqueous phase are mixed and emulsified to obtain an oil-in-water emulsion, wherein the prepolymer reacts with water at the oil-water interface to generate urea groups (-NH-CO-NH-), which promote the chain growth of polyurea and make the microcapsule shell more stable. In the process of preparing the oil-in-water emulsion, the emulsifier, isocyanate, and insecticide are also controlled. and polytetrahydrofuran, so that the components are coordinated, the dense structure of the insecticide microcapsule wall is improved, and the coverage rate is relatively high; at the same time, since the outer layer of the insecticide microcapsule provided by Examples 1-3 of the present application is a polyurea shell layer, and the inner layer is polylactic acid, polylactic acid is a biodegradable material, it can not only provide a good coating effect, but also enhance the biocompatibility of the insecticide microcapsule, and protect insecticides such as imidacloprid from external environmental factors (such as light, humidity, temperature, etc.), prolong the action time of insecticides such as imidacloprid, and reduce the abuse of insecticides such as imidacloprid.
[0096] The infrared spectra of the insecticide microcapsules and imidacloprid provided in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-2 tested using a Thermal Scientific Fourier transform infrared spectrometer are shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown, from Figure 6 It can be seen that the C=O vibration absorption peak of polyurea appears at 1650cm -1 The stretching vibration absorption peak of CO bond appears at 1302 cm -1 , 1230cm -1 The infrared characteristic peak of COC appeared at 3350cm, proving that isocyanate, diol and water polymerized to form polyurea, confirming the structural characteristics of the microcapsule. -1 The NH bond stretching vibration of polyurea is at 3650-3250cm -1There is a relatively broad absorption peak at the position, which indicates that the synthetic insecticide microcapsules of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-2 are coated with the insecticide imidacloprid.
[0097] At the same time, since the thermal stability of the insecticide microcapsules has a great influence on the insecticide microcapsules, the present application also conducts thermal stability analysis on the insecticide microcapsules provided in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-2 and imidacloprid. The analysis results are as follows: Figure 7 As shown in Table 1, Figure 7 Table 1 is the results of the thermal aging test at 200℃ / 90℃ / 60℃ for different time periods. Figure 7 As can be seen from Table 1, the insecticide imidacloprid without microcapsule coating has poor thermal stability and is degraded and inactivated by about 40% at 200°C / 48h or 90°C / 28d, while the insecticide microcapsules provided by Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-2 have improved thermal stability and are not easily degraded and inactivated; further comparison shows that the early thermal weight loss is caused by water loss. Compared with the insecticide microcapsules provided by Comparative Documents 1-2, the degradation rate of the insecticide microcapsules provided by Examples 1-3 is much slower than that of the Comparative Example and imidacloprid, and the thermal stability is better, which shows that Examples 1-3 The provided insecticide microcapsules have a polyurea shell layer as an outer layer and a polylactic acid as an inner layer, so that when the temperature and other environmental conditions become harsh, the insecticide microcapsules can better alleviate the impact of external conditions on the internal insecticides, thereby extending their service life. When used for cable anti-termite, when the cable is working in a heating state, the insecticide microcapsules provided in Examples 1-3 have good thermal stability and can provide a long-term anti-termite erosion effect; and due to good high temperature resistance, in addition to being used for cable anti-termite, they have broad application prospects in special high temperature environments such as greenhouses, chemical plants and steel plants.
