Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of thermoplastic elastomers, and particularly to a modification method for improving the flame retardancy of thermoplastic elastomers. Background Art
[0002] Thermoplastic elastomers (also known as TPE) are a kind of polymer material that combines the elastic properties of rubber and the processing properties of thermoplastic plastics. They exhibit rubber elasticity at room temperature and can flow like plastics at high temperatures. They contain a hard segment (such as polystyrene, polyester) to provide physical cross-linking points and a soft segment (polybutadiene, polyether, etc.) to endow it with elasticity. Some thermoplastic elastomers, such as TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane rubber), have poor flame retardancy and usually need to be modified to improve their properties to meet the production requirements. Common modification methods include physical blending modification and chemical structure modification, etc. Among them, the physical blending modification has a lower process difficulty and can improve the flame retardancy of thermoplastic elastomers to a certain extent. CN105038191B discloses a halogen-free flame-retardant thermoplastic elastomer and its preparation method. By using at least one of zinc borate, magnesium borate, and calcium borate as an inorganic salt flame retardant, the flame retardancy can be effectively improved and the generation of smoke during combustion can be reduced. However, such inorganic flame retardants are polar materials, while thermoplastic elastomers are non-polar materials, and their compatibility is poor. They are prone to precipitation during long-term storage. Moreover, the thermal expansion coefficients of inorganic flame retardants and thermoplastic elastomers are quite different. When the thermoplastic elastomer faces a large temperature change, interfacial stress concentration is likely to generate microcracks, further promoting the precipitation of inorganic flame retardants, resulting in the inability to maintain the flame retardancy of thermoplastic elastomers for a long time.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a modification method for improving the flame retardancy of thermoplastic elastomers. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In order to solve the problem of poor heat resistance of TPE materials, it is necessary to provide a modification method for improving the flame retardancy of thermoplastic elastomers.
[0005] A modification method for improving the flame retardancy of thermoplastic elastomers includes the following steps: mixing montmorillonite and inorganic flame retardant particles in a ball mill to form composite flame retardant particles, and then mixing the composite flame retardant particles with thermoplastic elastomers and extruding them to obtain flame-retardant modified thermoplastic elastomers.
[0006] In this solution, montmorillonite and inorganic flame retardant particles are pre-placed in a ball mill for ball milling. Montmorillonite is a layered mineral, and the layers are bound by weak van der Waals forces. Therefore, during the ball milling process, montmorillonite is gradually exfoliated to form nanosheets, which are physically adsorbed or chemically bonded to the surface of the inorganic flame retardant particles or inserted into the gaps on the surface of the inorganic flame retardant particles to form a mechanical interlocking structure, thus forming composite flame retardant particles. In this way, when the flame retardant modified thermoplastic elastomer faces a large temperature change (such as the cooling process after extrusion), the thermal shrinkage coefficients of the thermoplastic elastomer and the composite flame retardant particles are quite different, resulting in a large thermal stress. At this time, the nanosheets on the surface of the composite flame retardant particles can disperse the generated thermal stress to prevent the flame retardant modified thermoplastic elastomer from generating microcracks, which may lead to the precipitation of the inorganic flame retardant. At the same time, the nanosheet layer also extends the migration path of the inorganic flame retardant, further inhibiting the precipitation of the flame retardant. Therefore, the above-mentioned flame retardant modified thermoplastic elastomer has excellent and long-lasting flame retardant properties.
[0007] Furthermore, the inorganic flame retardant particles include at least one of aluminum hydroxide particles and magnesium hydroxide particles. Aluminum hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide are environmentally friendly flame retardants. When heated and decomposed, they release crystal water to absorb heat and cool down, and at the same time, the generated oxides can form a covering layer to isolate the contact between oxygen and the elastomer.
[0008] Furthermore, the average particle size of the inorganic flame retardant particles is 5 - 20 μm. If the average particle size of the particles is too small, agglomeration is likely to occur. If the average particle size of the particles is too large, on the one hand, it cannot fully adsorb the nanosheets, and on the other hand, it also leads to an increase in thermal stress.
[0009] Furthermore, the montmorillonite is modified by CTAB. CTAB (cetyltrimethylammonium bromide) is a cationic surfactant, and its long-chain alkyl group can be inserted into the interlayer of montmorillonite to expand the interlayer spacing, thereby improving the efficiency of ball milling exfoliation and the compatibility between the nanosheets and the inorganic flame retardant.
[0010] Furthermore, the parameters of the ball milling are as follows: the mass ratio of balls to materials is (5 - 10):1, the rotation speed is 200 - 500 rpm, and the ball milling time is 3 - 6 h. The above ball milling parameters can avoid excessive refinement of the nanosheets and the flame retardant particles and form stable composite flame retardant particles.
[0011] Furthermore, the composite flame retardant particles account for 5 - 20 wt% of the finished product. If the addition amount of the composite flame retardant particles is too low, the required flame retardant performance may not be achieved. If the addition amount of the composite flame retardant particles is too high, the mechanical properties of the thermoplastic elastomer will be affected.
[0012] Further, the mass ratio of the montmorillonite to the inorganic flame retardant in the composite flame retardant particles is 1:(20 - 50). Under the above ratio, the nanosheets can form a thermal stress buffer layer on the surface of the inorganic flame retardant particles, and will not affect other properties of the thermoplastic elastomer due to excessive use of montmorillonite.
[0013] Further, the thermoplastic elastomer includes at least one of TPV, TPU, and TPEE. This solution can be applied to the modification of various TPE materials.
[0014] Further, the extrusion process is twin-screw extrusion, and the extrusion temperature is 180 - 220 °C. This extrusion process can ensure the uniform dispersion of the composite flame retardant particles in the molten matrix, and the premature decomposition of the inorganic flame retardant will not occur within this temperature range.
[0015] Further, when the composite flame retardant particles are mixed with the thermoplastic elastomer, an interfacial compatibilizer accounting for 0.5 - 3 wt% of the finished product is added. By adding an interfacial compatibilizer such as maleic anhydride grafted product, etc., the interfacial bonding between the composite flame retardant particles and the thermoplastic elastomer can be further improved, and the migration of the flame retardant can be further inhibited.

[0055] Comparative example 3: This comparative example provides a modification method for improving the flame retardant performance of thermoplastic elastomers.
[0056] Mixing and extrusion: Mix 10 parts of magnesium hydroxide particles (average particle size of 5 μm), 0.5 part of montmorillonite (cas: 1318-93-0), 88 parts of TPU particles (BASF, 670 A10 WHU), 1 part of interfacial compatibilizer (MAH-g-PP, Jia Yirong CMG9801), 0.5 part of antioxidant (BASF 1098), and 0.5 part of lubricant (tech-2734, Shanghai Tiger) are mixed and extruded through a twin-screw extruder at an extrusion temperature of 180 °C. After cooling, the flame-retardant modified thermoplastic elastomer is obtained.
[0057] The samples prepared in the above examples and comparative examples were tested for flame retardancy (referring to the UL94 rating standard).
[0058] Long-term flame retardancy performance test: The samples were aged in an oven for 30 days (temperature 80 °C, humidity 50%), and their flame retardancy was detected (referring to the UL94 rating standard).
[0059] Table 1 shows the test results of the flame retardancy and long-term flame retardancy performance of the samples of Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-2.
[0060]
[0061]
[0062] According to the data in Table 1, it can be seen that the flame retardancy of Comparative Example 2 has been improved compared to Comparative Example 1, but its long-term flame retardancy performance has not been significantly improved. However, the long-term flame retardancy performance of Examples 1-7 has been significantly improved compared to Comparative Example 2. This is because in this solution, montmorillonite and inorganic flame retardant particles are pre-ground in a ball mill. Montmorillonite is a layered mineral, and the layers are bound by weak van der Waals forces. Therefore, during the ball milling process, montmorillonite gradually exfoliates to form nanosheets, which are physically adsorbed or chemically bonded to the surface of the inorganic flame retardant particles or inserted into the surface gaps of the inorganic flame retardant particles to form a mechanical interlocking structure, thus forming composite flame retardant particles. In this way, when the flame-retardant modified thermoplastic elastomer faces a large temperature change (such as the cooling process after extrusion), the thermal shrinkage coefficients of the thermoplastic elastomer and the composite flame retardant particles are quite different, resulting in a large thermal stress. At this time, the nanosheets on the surface of the composite flame retardant particles can disperse the generated thermal stress to prevent the formation of microcracks in the flame-retardant modified thermoplastic elastomer, which may lead to the precipitation of the inorganic flame retardant. At the same time, the nanosheet layer also extends the migration path of the inorganic flame retardant, further inhibiting the precipitation of the flame retardant. Therefore, the above flame-retardant modified thermoplastic elastomer has excellent and long-term flame retardancy performance. There is no obvious improvement in Comparative Example 3 compared to Comparative Example 2 because it does not form composite flame retardant particles by ball milling in advance, and no mechanical interlocking structure can be generated, so microcracks are likely to occur during the cooling process, leading to the precipitation of the flame retardant.
[0063] Example 2 used a combination of aluminum hydroxide and large-particle-size inorganic flame retardants. Aluminum hydroxide has a relatively low decomposition temperature and may undergo partial decomposition during the mixing process. Moreover, the large particle size results in a poor coating effect of montmorillonite nanosheets. Example 4 used unmodified montmorillonite, and the efficiency of exfoliating to produce montmorillonite nanosheets was low, unable to form an effective thermal stress protection layer. Example 5 used ball milling at a higher rotation speed and for a longer time, which may lead to excessive fragmentation of the nanosheets. In Example 6, the addition amount of the composite flame retardant was low, and the flame retardant effect was poor. Example 7 used less montmorillonite, making it difficult for the nanosheets to fully cover the inorganic particles, and the migration ability of the thermoplastic elastomer increased after aging.
[0064] The technical features of the above-described embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of brevity of description, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, it should be considered as the scope recorded in this specification.
[0065] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementation manners of the present invention. The description is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of the invention patent. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present invention, several modifications and improvements can still be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention patent shall be subject to the appended claims.
