Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of photocuring, and in particular to an adjustable photocuring device and method for continuous preparation of precision particles. Background Art
[0002] Photocuring refers to the free radical polymerization reaction of monomers or oligomers under light irradiation, which is initiated by photoinitiators to generate polymer solids. UV curing is a polymerization method that uses ultraviolet radiation to induce the synthesis of high molecular polymers. It has the advantages of fast reaction speed, high efficiency, and mild reaction conditions. It is widely used in the production of polymer material products in many industries such as photosensitive adhesives, electronic device encapsulants, film materials, coating materials, and dental filling materials.
[0003] Existing industrial applications of synthesizing polymers using UV curing reactions are mainly aimed at material surface treatment or batch synthesis of large-volume polymers. UV lamp tubes, desktop UV lamps or UV light boxes are usually used for photocuring, which is difficult to meet the UV curing synthesis needs of fine chemicals. For example, existing UV light boxes are large and cannot be adjusted, that is, the irradiation space range of the internal UV light source cannot be changed; the position of the UV lamp is fixed and cannot be rotated, that is, the irradiation angle of the UV light source cannot be adjusted. Especially for scientific research experimental scenarios based on microfluidic technology to synthesize polymer microspheres and industrial applications of photochemical reactions such as composite polymer microparticle synthesis, the existing UV irradiation method is difficult to accurately control the irradiation range, has few adjustable parameters, poor applicability, and the photocuring reaction results are not ideal.
[0004] Limited by the existing technical methods and equipment, the application of ultraviolet light curing reaction generally has the problem of uneven ultraviolet light radiation, that is, uneven curing reaction intensity. For example, when the polymer microparticles are photocured, there is a risk of local overreaction due to overexposure and explosion on the near-light side of the polymer droplets, while the cross-linking reaction on the far-light side is not sufficient. In this way, the overall reaction of the polymer microparticles is uneven, and the curing is uneven, resulting in poor mechanical properties of the polymer material and safety risks in the production process. Therefore, there is a need for a new preparation method and equipment that can achieve uniform curing synthesis of polymer microparticles. Summary of the invention

[0063] Analysis of the above content: When the adjusting disk 8 is rotated, the adjusting disk 8 can drive the supporting plate 4 and the ultraviolet lamp 12 to rotate through the connecting screw 9, so that the ultraviolet lamp 12 can irradiate the droplets in the conveying tube 3 from different angles.
[0064] A method for continuous preparation of precision microparticles, the preparation method is as follows:
[0065] S1: Loading the light-curing reactor: Fix the delivery tube 3, pull out the rectangular plug-in box 2, pass the delivery tube 3 through the pipeline clamping ring plate 15, and make the delivery tube 3 pass through the ultraviolet lamp 12;
[0066] S2: Adjusting the photocuring reaction space: adjusting the extension distance of the rectangular plug-in drawer box 2 at both ends to determine the length of the pipeline receiving ultraviolet light, that is, the ultraviolet light radiation space in the reactor shell 1 and the rectangular plug-in drawer box 2;
[0067] S3 adjusts the photocuring reaction conditions: by adjusting the irradiation angle of the ultraviolet lamp 12, adjusting the time and intensity of the ultraviolet light irradiation emitted by the ultraviolet lamp 12 based on the ultraviolet lamp light source control and display 13, and turning on the power switches of the corresponding number of ultraviolet lamps 12 as needed, 360° ultraviolet light irradiation is performed in the reactor shell 1 to induce a uniform photocuring reaction, and the uniformly cured microparticles are collected downstream of the conveying pipe 3.
[0068] This scheme is applicable to polymer monomers or oligomers that can undergo free radical polymerization reaction by ultraviolet radiation, such as common water-soluble photocurable polymer monomers: polyethylene glycol diacrylate (PEGDA), acrylamide (AAm), polymethacrylate sulfobetaine (SBMA), etc.; oil-soluble photocurable polymer monomers: ethoxylated trimethylolpropane triacrylate (ETPTA), trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA), etc. Combined with microparticle synthesis technology based on microfluidic droplet template method.
[0069] This solution can flexibly set the UV irradiation time according to the needs of use to adapt to polymer systems with different reaction rates. The light intensity can be 10mW / cm 2 Up to 5000mW / cm 2 The range of curing conditions can be adjusted (by selecting the corresponding UV lamp 12) to meet different application requirements from low-energy slow curing to high-energy fast curing. According to the absorption characteristics of different photoinitiators, the wavelength range of the UV light source required for the photocurable material is generally 200nm to 450nm. This solution preferably uses UV light with a wavelength of 365nm or 395nm. This solution also allows the curing conditions to be optimized by replacing or adjusting the configuration of the UV light source, such as replacing the UV light panel to change the illumination area and uniformity, adjusting the number of UV lamp beads to increase or decrease the illumination intensity, or using different types of UV LED light sources or mercury lamp light sources to optimize the illumination uniformity, spectral distribution and illumination time, so as to further improve the controllability and uniformity of the photocuring process of polymer micro-nanoparticles.
[0070] The power switch, light intensity, i.e., power, and light exposure time of the ultraviolet lamp 12 on each carrier plate 4 can be controlled individually. Light intensity I (watts per square meter, W / m 2 ) can be calculated by the following formula:
[0071]
[0072] Where P (watt, W) is the total light power of the UV light source. θ is the irradiation angle of the UV lamp panel. h (meter, m) is the vertical distance from the center point of the UV light source to the surface of the irradiated object.
[0073] The UV curing method proposed in this scheme can be used for the synthesis of polymer microspheres or microparticles based on droplet microfluidics. Take the synthesis of polyethylene glycol diacrylate polymer microparticles as an example. Using droplet microfluidics, polyethylene glycol diacrylate polymer microsphere droplets dispersed in fluorinated oil can be prepared, with a diameter of about 100 μm, specifically composed of low molecular weight polyethylene glycol diacrylate (PEGDA), deionized water, anhydrous ethanol and photoinitiator 2-hydroxy-2-methylpropionylphenone (HMP) in a mass ratio of 40wt%, 39wt%, 20wt% and 1wt%, respectively. The polymer microsphere droplets are dispersed in fluorinated oil, and the droplet microfluidic device is connected through a transparent polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) pipeline with an outer diameter of 250μm and an inner diameter of 200μm, ready for UV curing reaction.
[0074] The length of the reactor shell 1 is 10 cm. The extension distances of the rectangular plug-in boxes 2 at both ends are adjusted to 10 cm according to the needs of use. The spatial range for ultraviolet light irradiation, that is, the length range of the pipeline subjected to ultraviolet light radiation, is determined. Combined with the flow rate of the polyethylene glycol diacrylate polymer microsphere droplets in the pipeline, it is set to 905 μL / h, that is, the flow rate is 5 cm / s. It can be seen that the maximum reaction time of the polyethylene glycol diacrylate polymer microsphere droplets for ultraviolet light curing reaction is 6 s.
[0075] Turn the adjustment disk 8 to adjust the angles of the four carrier plates 4 to 0, that is, the four carrier plates 4 are parallel to the wall of the reactor shell 1. Then turn on the power switches of the ultraviolet lamps 12 on the four carrier plates 4 in turn, and 360° ultraviolet light irradiation is carried out in the reactor shell 1 to induce a uniform photocuring reaction. The ultraviolet light source control and display 13 can adjust the ultraviolet light source. At 3500mW / cm 2 The ultraviolet light power density was used to carry out the ultraviolet light-induced polymerization reaction of polyethylene glycol diacrylate (PEGDA). The obtained polyethylene glycol diacrylate polymer microparticles had a uniform particle size ( Figure 7 ), the particle size distribution is narrow, 86.41% of the particles are distributed in the range of 86.4-127μm, and 53.74% of the particles are distributed in the range of 98.1-111μm ( Fig.10 ), where Dv(10)=89.7μm, Dv(50)=113μm, Dv(10)=142μm( Fig. 9 ). The polyethylene glycol diacrylate polymer microparticles have regular morphology and smooth surface ( Figure 8 ), indicating that the overall cross-linking reaction degree of the microparticles is uniform, that is, uniform photocuring of the microparticles is achieved by this method.
