Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of nylon materials, and in particular to a high-performance, scratch-resistant, wear-resistant, and corrosion-resistant nylon material using plastic instead of steel. Background Art
[0002] In high-intensity operating environments such as automotive manufacturing, rail transit, and construction machinery, metal components are widely used in core applications such as load-bearing, friction, and connection. However, their heavy weight, high processing costs, and susceptibility to corrosion are becoming increasingly prominent. Replacing steel with plastics, particularly nylon, has become a key development direction in the trend toward lightweighting and functional integration. For key components such as gears, bearings, and structural supports, the materials must not only possess excellent mechanical strength but also maintain stable scratch, wear, and corrosion resistance under long-term friction, impact, and complex chemical media. Under extreme operating conditions such as high humidity, high salt levels, and high temperatures, the material's surface damage resistance and chemical stability are directly related to the product's service life and safety. Therefore, the development of nylon composite materials with high-performance scratch, wear, and corrosion resistance is crucial for improving equipment reliability, extending maintenance cycles, and reducing overall operating costs. Furthermore, the widespread use of such materials can further promote the development of lightweight engineering material systems, expand the application boundaries of plastic-to-steel substitution, and facilitate the transformation of industrial manufacturing towards efficiency, greenness, and intelligence.
[0003] At present, although engineering plastics based on nylon have initially achieved the goal of replacing steel with plastic in multiple industrial fields due to their good processability and mechanical properties, existing materials still have significant deficiencies when dealing with high-intensity friction and complex corrosion environments, limiting their further application in key components. For example, Chinese patent No. CN117844235B discloses a high-wear-resistant nylon material. Although some mechanical properties of the material are improved by adding fillers, no effective breakthrough has been achieved in terms of scratch resistance, wear resistance and corrosion resistance. In particular, surface wear or performance degradation is prone to occur under high-frequency friction or acid-base corrosion environments. The main reason for this problem is that traditional reinforcement methods are mostly limited to single inorganic fillers, and the interface compatibility and microstructure regulation are insufficient, making it difficult to simultaneously take into account the synergistic improvement of wear resistance and corrosion resistance. In addition, most existing technologies also have obvious shortcomings in filler dispersibility, surface modification effectiveness and composite system stability, resulting in significant performance degradation of the material during long-term service. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a new type of nylon composite material with a reasonable structural design and significant synergistic reinforcement effect of components, so as to achieve a comprehensive improvement in key indicators such as high performance scratch resistance, wear resistance and corrosion resistance, and fundamentally meet the engineering needs of replacing steel with plastic in complex application environments.

[0013] Furthermore, the preparation method of the surface-modified calcium fluoride @ alumina whisker filler is as follows: 100 parts by weight of calcium fluoride @ alumina whisker filler are dispersed in 300 to 500 parts of a mixed solvent of ethanol and water, wherein the weight ratio of ethanol to water is 3:1 to 1:1; after ultrasonic treatment for 10 to 30 minutes until uniform dispersion, 0.5 to 3 parts of 3,3,3-trifluoropropyltrimethoxysilane coupling agent are added; the mixture is stirred at 50 to 90°C at a stirring rate of 200 to 500 rpm for 3 to 8 hours; the solid and liquid phases are then separated by a vacuum filtration device; the solid phase is retained and washed with ethanol 3 to 5 times to remove the unreacted coupling agent; and the product is finally dried in an oven at 80 to 120°C for 2 to 4 hours to obtain the surface-modified calcium fluoride @ alumina whisker filler.
[0014] Furthermore, the preparation method of the calcium fluoride @ alumina whisker is as follows: 100 parts of alumina whiskers are dispersed in 200-500 parts of deionized water by weight, ultrasonically treated for 10-60 minutes to form a uniform suspension, 5-20 parts of calcium chloride and 3-15 parts of an aqueous solution of ammonium fluoride with a concentration of 0.1-1.5 mol / L are added in sequence under continuous stirring at a stirring rate of 200-800 rpm, the pH is adjusted to 8-11, and an in-situ crystallization precipitation reaction is carried out at 50-80°C for 60-180 minutes. After the reaction is completed, the mixture is washed with deionized water 3-5 times and vacuum filtered to remove soluble byproducts and unreacted ions. The solid phase is retained and dried at 80-120°C for 2-6 hours to obtain a calcium fluoride @ alumina whisker composite powder.
[0015] Furthermore, the preparation method of the alumina whiskers is as follows: in parts by weight, 5 to 20 parts of aluminum nitrate are dissolved in 50 to 200 parts of deionized water to form an aluminum salt solution, 3 to 8 parts of polyethylene glycol are added and mixed uniformly at a stirring rate of 200 to 800 rpm, 3 to 15 parts of 5 wt.% ammonia water are slowly added dropwise to adjust the pH of the solution to 8 to 12 to form aluminum hydroxide colloid, the mixed solution is transferred to a high-pressure hydrothermal reactor and reacted at 150 to 250° C. for 6 to 24 hours, after the reaction, cooled to 25 to 60° C., the liquid phase is separated by vacuum filtration, and the solid phase is washed with deionized water 3 to 5 times to remove residual template and soluble ions, the retained solid phase is dried at 80 to 120° C. for 2 to 6 hours, and then placed in a calcining furnace and heated to 600 to 1000° C. at a heating rate of 2 to 10° C. / min and calcined for 2 to 6 hours to obtain alumina whiskers.
[0016] The present invention adopts the design of surface-modified calcium fluoride @ alumina whisker filler, which is mainly used to enhance the scratch resistance, wear resistance and corrosion resistance of nylon materials. By constructing a calcium fluoride @ alumina whisker structure with alumina whiskers as the skeleton and a calcium fluoride nanolayer on the surface, not only is the filler given excellent mechanical strength and thermal stability, but its chemical stability and interface functional properties in complex environments are also further improved. As the main reinforcing phase, alumina whiskers have good dimensional regularity and a high aspect ratio. They can effectively transfer stress and inhibit the expansion of microcracks in composite materials, significantly improving the material's scratch resistance and wear resistance. The introduction of the calcium fluoride nanolayer improves the reactivity and corrosion resistance of the whisker surface, providing a guarantee for the stable use of the material in corrosive media such as acids and alkalis. On this basis, the calcium fluoride @ alumina whiskers are surface-modified by 3,3,3-trifluoropropyltrimethoxysilane to further enhance their dispersibility and interface compatibility in the polar nylon matrix, so that the filler can form a uniform and stable distribution state in the resin system, thereby achieving the synergistic optimization of structural continuity and performance balance. This technical solution forms a composite synergistic effect in mechanical enhancement and chemical protection through multi-level regulation of the whisker structure and surface functionalization treatment, significantly improving the comprehensive service capability of nylon materials under various working conditions, and reflecting the systematic and efficient material construction strategy.
[0017] Furthermore, the preparation method of the polytetrafluoroethylene-coated boron nitride particles is as follows: 100 parts by weight of boron nitride particles are dispersed in 300-800 parts of an aqueous polytetrafluoroethylene dispersion having a solid content of 30-60 wt.%, and treated with an ultrasonic power of 300-1000 W for 15-90 min to form a uniform suspension system, 2.0-5.0 parts of sodium lauryl sulfate are added as a dispersant and mixed uniformly at a stirring rate of 300-1000 rpm, hydrochloric acid or ammonia water with a concentration of 5-10 wt% is added dropwise to adjust the pH to 2-5, the temperature is raised to 60-100 ° C and the reaction is kept at this temperature for 2-4 h to allow polytetrafluoroethylene to be in situ deposited on the particle surface to form a film. After the reaction, the liquid phase and uncoated polytetrafluoroethylene particles are removed by vacuum filtration, and the solid phase is retained and ultrasonically washed with anhydrous ethanol for 3-5 times to remove surfactants and free ions. The product is then transferred to an oven and dried at 100-150°C for 3-12 h to obtain a primary coated powder. The powder is then placed in a tube furnace under nitrogen protection and heated to 320-400°C at a heating rate of 2-10°C / min and sintered for 1-3 h to densify the polytetrafluoroethylene film layer, ultimately obtaining polytetrafluoroethylene-coated boron nitride particles.
[0018] Furthermore, the preparation method of the boron nitride particles is as follows: in parts by weight, 100 parts of hexagonal boron nitride raw material powder with an initial particle size of 5-20 μm and a purity of ≥99% is mixed with 500-2000 parts of zirconia ball milling media with a diameter of 5 mm, and wet ball milling is performed using a planetary ball mill with a ball-to-material ratio of 5:1-20:1 and a rotation speed of 200-600 rpm, and 100-500 parts of deionized water and 2-5 parts of polyvinyl pyrrolidone are added to form a slurry with a solid-liquid ratio of 1:1-1:5, the ball mill filling rate is controlled to be 50-70% and the ball milling time is 10-20 h, the temperature is maintained at ≤60°C during the process to avoid damage to the boron nitride structure, and after the ball milling is completed, the ball milling media is removed by centrifugation and a boron nitride suspension with a particle size of ≤3 μm is retained, and the suspension is then vacuum dried at 60-100°C for 4-12 h to remove the dispersion medium, then use a jet mill to deagglomerate the product at a pressure of 0.5~1.2 MPa, and finally heat it to 800~1200°C at a heating rate of 5~10°C / min in a nitrogen atmosphere and calcine it for 1~2 h to obtain boron nitride particles.
[0019] Furthermore, the average diameter of the polytetrafluoroethylene-coated boron nitride particles is 200-800 nm; the thickness of the polytetrafluoroethylene coating layer is 30-80 nm;
[0020] Furthermore, the nylon matrix resin is a mixture of PA6 and PA66 in a mass ratio of (60-80): (40-20);
[0021] Furthermore, the compatibilizer is polyethylene grafted maleic anhydride;
[0022] Further, the antioxidant is antioxidant 1010;
[0023] Furthermore, the lubricant is ethylene bisstearamide.
[0024] The present invention adopts a design of polytetrafluoroethylene-coated boron nitride particles, which is mainly used to enhance the scratch resistance, wear resistance and corrosion resistance of nylon materials. The initial hexagonal boron nitride raw material is prepared into boron nitride particles with a reasonable particle size distribution through wet ball milling, deagglomeration and high-temperature calcination, and a polytetrafluoroethylene coating is deposited in situ on the surface. This not only gives the boron nitride particles good lubricity and thermal stability, but also significantly improves its dispersibility and interfacial compatibility in the nylon matrix. The polytetrafluoroethylene coating forms a dense coating structure during the high-temperature sintering process, which can effectively limit the agglomeration of boron nitride, promote its uniform distribution in the polymer matrix, and form a stable lubricated interface during the use of the material, thereby reducing the friction coefficient and slowing surface wear. At the same time, boron nitride itself has excellent chemical inertness and corrosion resistance, which can significantly improve the stability of the composite material in acidic, alkaline or wet and hot environments. By adjusting the coating thickness and particle size, dual regulation of the interface microstructure and macroscopic performance is achieved, so that the material can still maintain good functional stability under the influence of long-term friction impact and external corrosive media. Furthermore, the present invention incorporates polyethylene-grafted maleic anhydride as a compatibilizer into the nylon matrix, fostering a stronger interfacial bond between the filler and the matrix, improving the overall structural integrity of the composite system. Simultaneously, the synergistic introduction of antioxidant 1010 and ethylene bisstearamide further enhances the material's antioxidant capacity and processing fluidity. Within the overall design, the polytetrafluoroethylene-coated boron nitride particles not only provide lubrication and stability but also form a synergistic effect with other additives and the nylon matrix, achieving multiple improvements in the material's scratch, wear, and corrosion resistance. This fully embodies the design concept of structural optimization and performance integration for multiphase composite materials.

[0085] Comparative Example 3
[0086] The method is basically the same as Example 1, except that during the preparation of calcium fluoride@alumina whiskers, the pH value of the in-situ crystallization precipitation reaction is adjusted to 6, resulting in the inability of the calcium fluoride nanolayer to be uniformly deposited on the surface of the alumina whiskers.

[0103] Performance testing:
[0104] Scratch resistance testing: An instrumented scratch tester is used in accordance with ASTM D7027-13. A conical diamond indenter (120° apex angle, 50 μm tip radius) is used to apply a linearly increasing load of 0.1-20 N to the material surface at a scratching speed of 1 mm / s. The critical load (Lc) and scratch depth are recorded, and the scratch morphology (such as plastic deformation or crack propagation) is analyzed using an optical microscope. This experiment can quantify the material's ability to resist scratching by sharp objects.
[0105] Reciprocating sliding wear test: Based on the improvement of ASTM G65-16 (2021) dry sand / rubber wheel wear test, a ring-block friction and wear tester was used to test the material sample (10×10×5 mm³) against a GCr15 steel grinding ring (HRC 60) under a load of 10 N and a speed of 0.3 m / s for 10 4 After the first cycle, the volume loss rate (mm³ / N·m) was measured by a three-dimensional topography instrument to verify the wear resistance improvement effect.
[0106] Chemical corrosion resistance test: According to ASTM D543-14, material specimens (50 × 25 × 3 mm³) were immersed in 5% HCl, 10% NaOH, and xylene solutions (25°C / 72 h), respectively. The mass change (ΔW%) and tensile strength retention were measured.

[0108] Table 1 Summary of properties of nylon materials in Examples 1 to 4 and Comparative Examples 1 to 11
[0109]
[0110] As can be seen from Table 1, the lack of surface modification leads to a decrease in the interfacial bonding strength between the filler and the nylon matrix, significantly reducing the material's load-bearing capacity and wear resistance. The lack of a calcium fluoride layer or its uneven deposition will weaken the chemically inert barrier effect, reducing the material's corrosion resistance and mechanical stability. When the whisker structure is incomplete or the whisker growth is insufficient, its reinforcement effect is limited, making it difficult to effectively transfer stress and inhibit crack propagation. Insufficient sintering temperature of the coated boron nitride particles or improper control of the ball-milled particle size will affect lubricity and dispersibility, leading to increased wear. Poor hydrolysis conditions of the coupling agent will reduce the grafting efficiency, thereby affecting the filler dispersion and interfacial compatibility. Although the high rigidity and increased crystallinity of a single nylon matrix enhance chemical resistance, they will sacrifice impact toughness and wear resistance. Insufficient polarity or functional groups of the compatibilizer will weaken interfacial adhesion, resulting in a decrease in the mechanical properties of the composite system. Although a too thin calcium fluoride layer can improve flexibility and local scratch resistance, it cannot effectively block the intrusion of corrosive media, reducing the overall chemical resistance.
