Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of coating protection, and particularly relates to a low rolling angle coating and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Lotus leaves have a rough micro / nano structure on the surface and low surface energy plant wax, and water droplets are easy to roll off on its surface. Inspired by lotus leaves, people have prepared superhydrophobic surfaces with a water contact angle greater than 150° through rough structures and low surface energy substances, and this surface also has a low rolling angle. However, this design depends on the stability of the air cavities in the surface texture under the liquid droplet, thus generating the so-called Cassie-Baxter state. But if pressure is applied to the liquid droplet on the surface, the liquid can be forced into the surface texture, transitioning to the Wenzel state, thereby losing the superhydrophobic and low rolling angle properties. Another issue worthy of attention is the durability of this surface, because these micro / nano structures are usually very fragile and are prone to wear during use. Inspired by Nepenthes, the inner surface of Nepenthes has a thin lubricating layer / nectar layer, so it has excellent slipperiness. In 2011, the Aizenberg group first coined the term "SLIPS". A stable smooth liquid surface is obtained by filling the pores of a substrate with micro / nano pores with a lubricating liquid. Such surfaces have a very low rolling angle and liquid droplets are easy to roll off. Although this surface has excellent liquid rolling performance, the limitation of SLIPS lies in the lubricant on its surface, which may evaporate over time and be lost under shear stress during use. Superhydrophobic and SLIPS have the disadvantage of being easily worn out, so they are restricted in industrial applications. Summary of the Invention

[0028] The specific embodiment of the present invention provides a preparation method of a low-rolling-angle coating, including the following steps:

[0029] Provide a substrate and place the substrate in a vacuum deposition chamber;

[0030] Introduce the vapor of the structural monomer shown in formula (1) into the reaction chamber, and turn on the plasma discharge to form a plasma polymerization coating on the surface of the substrate. The average power density of the plasma discharge is 20 to 120 w / m 3 ,

[0032] In formula (1), R1, R2, and R3 are each independently selected from a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and R4 is an alkyl group having 1 to C 20 alkyl group.

[0033] The inventors of the present invention have found through research that for the monomer plasma coating with the structure shown in formula (1), at a relatively low plasma density, the crosslinking density is low, showing a "liquid-like" surface with a low rolling angle. However, when the average power is too low, the plasma density is too low, and the monomer material cannot effectively form a film on the substrate surface, damaging the integrity of the coating, so the rolling angle will instead increase. In the preparation method of the low-rolling-angle coating in the specific embodiments of the present invention, by controlling the average power density of plasma discharge to be 20-120 w / m 3 the plasma polymerization coating prepared from the monomer with the structure shown in formula (1) has more excellent low-rolling-angle performance. In some specific embodiments, the average power density of the plasma discharge is 25-100 w / m 3 specifically, for example, 25 w / m 3 30 w / m 3 35 w / m 3 40 w / m 3 45 w / m 3 50 w / m 3 55 w / m 3 60 w / m 3 65 w / m 3 70 w / m 3 75 w / m 3 80 w / m 3 85 w / m 3 90 w / m 3 95 w / m 3 or 100 w / m 3 etc.

[0133] Table 1 Test results of Examples 1-15

[0134]

[0135] According to the results of the above examples, it can be seen that for the plasma coating with methacrylate monomers, the contact angle of the coating can be adjusted by adjusting the number of side-chain carbon atoms (R4 alkyl chain) of the methacrylate monomers and / or the average power density. According to the relationship between the contact angle of the coating and the number of side-chain carbon atoms of the methacrylate monomers in Examples 1, 4, 5, 6, 8 and 10, referring to Figure 1 , as the number of side-chain carbon atoms increases, the contact angle first decreases and then increases. When the number of side-chain carbon atoms is in the range of 8-12, the coating has better droplet rolling performance, and the contact angle < 20°. According to the relationship between the contact angle of the coating and the average power density in Examples 1-3 and Examples 12-15, referring to Figure 2 , as the average power decreases, the contact angle first decreases and then increases. When the average power density is 25-100 W / m 3 , the coating has better droplet rolling performance, and the contact angle < 20°.
