Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of polymer processing aids, and in particular relates to a bio-based plasticizer and a polymer composition containing the plasticizer and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Plasticizers are a class of polymer material additives widely used in industrial production. They can increase the plasticity of polymers, thereby improving the processing properties and physical properties of materials. The mechanism of action of plasticizers is mainly to increase the mobility of polymer molecular chains and reduce the crystallinity of polymer molecular chains by weakening the secondary bonds between polymer molecules, thereby improving the plasticity of polymers. This is manifested in the decrease of hardness, modulus, softening temperature and brittle temperature of polymers, while the elongation, flexibility and toughness are improved. At present, hundreds of plasticizers have been introduced, among which phthalates are the most widely used plasticizers (e.g. dioctyl phthalate) due to their good plasticizing effect and relatively low cost, accounting for more than 80% of the total amount of plasticizers. However, commercial phthalate plasticizers will migrate from the inside of the product to the surface during use and eventually enter the surrounding environment, thereby polluting the environment and having a negative impact on human health, such as disrupting the endocrine system and causing cancer.

[0003] Furanic acid is an important bio-based platform compound and the only bio-based rigid aromatic ring structure monomer. It is expected to be used as a raw material for synthesizing biosafety and new environmentally friendly bio-based plasticizers. CN117946043A discloses a preparation method and application of a fully bio-based furandicarboxylate plasticizer for PLA, which uses bio-based platform compound 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid and natural fatty alcohol as raw materials, and obtains furandicarboxylate by esterification reaction under the action of a catalyst. The fully bio-based furandicarboxylate plasticizer has a bio-based content of 100%, a high boiling point, good stability, and is non-toxic and green. It is very similar to the structure of phthalate plasticizers and is a perfect substitute for phthalate plasticizers. It can be used in the preparation of polymer composite materials to replace traditional phthalate plasticizers. However, the plasticizer is highly volatile and has poor mechanical properties. Summary of the invention

[0004]

Technical issues

The furan-based plasticizer with excellent performance is prepared by using fatty acid ester, furanic acid and acetic anhydride as raw materials. The furan-based plasticizer contains a long fatty chain structure, a furan ring structure and an ester branched structure, and thus has special plasticizing properties. The compatibility of the plasticizer with the polymer is increased while the thermal stability, mechanical properties and migration resistance of the plasticizer are increased.

Beneficial Effects

[0050] (1) The present invention utilizes the special structure (carboxyl group) of furanic acid and the ring-opening reaction of epoxy fatty acid ester to prepare a bioplasticizer having a long fatty chain structure, a furan ring structure, and an ester branched structure; while improving its compatibility with polymers, it also improves the tensile strength, elongation at break, thermal stability, and migration resistance of the material.

[0051] (2) The non-polar long alkyl chain is inserted into the polymer to increase the free volume and act as a lubricant. The presence of the polar furan ring structure improves the compatibility of the plasticizer with the polymer while increasing its thermal stability and mechanical properties. The multiple ester groups contained in it interact with the polymer to offset part of the interaction force between the polymer macromolecules, thereby increasing compatibility. The ester branched structure increases the interaction and physical interpenetration between molecules, significantly reducing the mobility of the plasticizer in the polymer matrix, and can replace traditional phthalate plasticizers.

[0052] (3) The raw materials used in the present invention are derived from bio-based materials, which are green and environmentally friendly. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0139] Performance Testing:

[0156] Function and effect:

[0157] Thermogravimetric analysis of three plasticizers, methyl oleate (MO), diisononyl cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxylate (DINCH), and methyl oleate of acetyl 2,5-furandicarboxylate, showed that Figure 2As shown in the figure, when the mass loss is 50%, the temperature corresponding to acetyl 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid methyl oleate is higher than that of other plasticizers, indicating that the synthesized acetyl 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid methyl oleate has higher thermal stability. Because methyl oleate only contains a long fatty chain structure and has a small molecular weight, its thermal stability is the worst; the environmentally friendly plasticizer cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxylic acid diisononyl ester contains a six-membered ring, two ester groups and two long fatty chains, and its thermal stability is relatively high; acetyl 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid methyl oleate contains a furan ring structure, a long fatty chain structure, multiple ester groups and ester branched structures and its molecular weight is higher than that of other plasticizers, so it has the best thermal stability.

[0158] From the data in Table 4, it can be seen that the tensile strength, elongation at break (plasticizing efficiency) and volatility resistance of the furanoate-based plasticizer plasticized PVC prepared in the examples of the present invention are much better than those of methyl oleate and environmentally friendly plasticizer diisononyl cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxylate (DINCH), as well as existing plasticizers A and B. When the mass loss is 50%, the degradation temperature corresponding to the plasticized PVC in the examples is higher than that of the comparative samples, indicating that the PVC samples plasticized by the furanoate-based plasticizer show better thermal stability. This is because furanate-based environmentally friendly plasticizers have a long fatty chain structure, a furan ring structure and an ester branch structure. The non-polar long alkyl chain is inserted into PVC to increase the free volume and act as a lubricant. The presence of the furan ring structure improves the compatibility of the plasticizer with PVC while increasing its thermal stability and mechanical properties. The multiple polar ester groups contained in it produce dipole-dipole interactions with the α-H on the polar PVC molecules, which offset part of the interaction force between PVC, increase compatibility with PVC, and the ester branch structure increases the interaction and physical interpenetration between molecules, and the volatility of the plasticizer in the PVC matrix is ​​significantly reduced.

[0159] From the data in Table 5, it can be seen that the tensile strength of pure PLA is generally 65.1 MPa, and the elongation at break is 6.3%. Compared with pure PLA, the elongation at break of the PLA composite film increases after adding 10 parts of plasticizer. Compared with methyl oleate, when 10 parts of the furanoic acid ester-based plasticizer prepared in the embodiment are added, the strength and toughness can be improved at the same time, and the volatility and the degradation temperature corresponding to the mass loss of 50% are higher than those of the PLA plasticized by the comparative sample. It can be seen that the comprehensive performance of the prepared furanoic acid ester-based plasticizer is improved as a whole. This is because the furanoic acid ester-based environmentally friendly plasticizer has a long fatty chain structure, a furan ring structure and an ester branched structure. The non-polar long alkyl chain is inserted into the PLA molecule to increase the free volume and play a lubricating role. The presence of the furan ring structure improves the compatibility of the plasticizer with the PLA molecule while increasing its thermal stability and mechanical properties. The multiple polar ester groups contained in the plasticizer interact with the ester groups on the PLA molecule to produce hydrogen bonds to offset the interaction force between part of the polyester molecules, increase the compatibility with the polyester molecules, and the short ester branched structure increases the interaction and physical interpenetration between molecules, and the volatility of the plasticizer in the polyester molecule matrix is ​​significantly reduced.

[0160] It can be seen from the results in Table 6 that the rubber material obtained by using the plasticizer of the embodiment of the present invention has excellent mechanical properties. Compared with the plasticizer of the comparative example, the tensile strength and elongation at break of the rubber material obtained by the plasticizer of the embodiment of the present invention are increased at the same time, and the hardness and Mooney viscosity are reduced to varying degrees. This is because the furanoate-based plasticizer enters between the molecular chains, only improves the mobility of the molecular chains, does not destroy the chain segments between the macromolecules, and maintains the good tensile strength of the composite material. The more polar groups present in the furanoate-based plasticizer of the present invention enhance the compatibility between the plasticizer and the rubber matrix, effectively reduce the interaction force between the rubber molecular chains, and make the rubber molecular chains easier to slide, thereby enhancing the mechanical properties of the rubber material, reducing the hardness and Mooney viscosity, and improving the processing performance of the rubber material.

[0161] By observing the color change of PVC samples at 200°C over time, comparative example 1 turned black within 5 minutes, and a large number of small bubbles were generated on the surface. Its thermal stability was very poor and hydrogen chloride was released during heating; comparative example 2 turned black within 10 minutes and small bubbles were generated on the surface; comparative example 3 turned black in about 30 minutes but no small bubbles were generated on the surface; comparative example 4 gradually turned black after 10 minutes and a small number of small bubbles were generated on the surface; application example 1 did not turn dark until 50 minutes later and no small bubbles were generated on the surface, and had good color retention and heat aging properties. This is because furanate-based plasticizers have a long fatty chain structure, a furan ring structure and an ester branch structure. The non-polar long alkyl chain is inserted into PVC to increase the free volume and act as a lubricant. The presence of the furan ring structure improves the compatibility of the plasticizer with PVC while increasing its thermal stability and mechanical properties. The multiple polar ester groups contained in it produce dipole-dipole interactions with the α-H on the polar PVC molecules, which offset part of the interaction force between PVCs and increase compatibility with PVC. The ester branch structure increases the interaction and physical interpenetration between molecules, so furanate-based environmentally friendly plasticizers have the best color retention and thermal aging properties.
