Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cast nylon, and specifically, to an antistatic and flame-retardant continuous fiber-reinforced cast nylon. Background Art
[0002] A composite material is a macroscopic combination of two or more immiscible materials. The composite material is composed of at least a matrix material forming a continuous phase for structural bonding and a reinforcing material having various structures for mechanical properties. Compared with thermosetting composite materials, thermoplastic composite materials have the advantages of high fracture toughness, strong impact resistance, recyclability, high production efficiency, unlimited storage period, and convenient welding repair, and are the preferred materials for future thermoplastic composite materials.
[0003] Due to different matrix materials, composite materials are divided into thermosetting composite materials and thermoplastic composite materials. Although thermosetting composite materials have been developed earlier, they have the disadvantages of poor weather resistance and toughness. Once cracks appear in the products, it is almost difficult to repair them, and the reuse rate is low; moreover, the matrix of thermosetting composite materials is not easy to be formed into other forms. Once the polymer is cured, the shape is fixed, which makes the thermosetting composite materials unable to be repeatedly processed and formed later and difficult to be recycled and reused, thus causing serious environmental and cost-benefit problems.
[0004] Among them, monomer casting nylon (MC) is a new type of engineering plastic developed in the 1960s. Using caprolactam as the main raw material, it is directly cast into a mold preheated to a certain temperature by anionic polymerization under normal pressure. And cast nylon has many unique properties such as light weight, self-lubrication, and wear resistance. The cast nylon-based fiber thermoplastic composite material prepared by fiber reinforcement can effectively improve its mechanical properties such as tensile strength and bending strength, and realize "replacing steel with plastic" in many fields.
[0005] However, different application fields have different requirements. For example, for instrument enclosures, tracks, etc. used in explosive environments such as coal mines, in addition to requiring the material to have high strength comparable to that of metals, it is also required that the material has multifunctional properties such as flame retardancy and antistatic property.

[0073] Table 1 Performance test of MC nylon prepared in each example and comparative example
[0074]
[0075] According to the descriptions of each example and comparative example, the main difference between Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 is that Comparative Example 3 added untreated carbon black. As can be seen from the results in Table 1, the flame retardant properties of the materials in Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 are basically the same, but the mechanical properties of Comparative Example 2 are slightly improved, and its surface resistance drops significantly. This result shows that the addition of carbon black greatly improves the antistatic performance of the material and plays a certain degree of strengthening role on the material.
[0076] The main difference between Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 3 is that Comparative Example 3 added carbon black treated with silane coupling agent (KH550). As can be seen from the results in Table 1, the flame retardant properties of the materials in Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 3 are basically the same, but the mechanical properties of Comparative Example 3 are slightly improved, and its surface resistance drops significantly. This result shows that the addition of modified carbon black greatly improves the antistatic performance of the material and plays a certain degree of strengthening role on the material.
[0077] The main difference between Comparative Example 2 and Comparative Example 3 is that Comparative Example 3 added carbon black treated with silane coupling agent (KH550). As can be seen from the results in Table 1, the flame retardant properties of the materials in Comparative Example 2 and Comparative Example 3 are basically the same, but the mechanical properties of Comparative Example 3 are slightly improved, and the decline amplitude of its surface resistance is greater. This result shows that after the carbon black is treated with silane coupling agent, it can be better dispersed in the matrix, thereby being able to more significantly improve the antistatic performance of the material.
[0078] It is known that the chemical formula of the silane coupling agent is: R-Si-X3. And X is a hydrolyzable functional group, and Y is an organic functional group. In this application, X can be chloro, methoxy, ethoxy, acetoxy, etc.; Y can be vinyl, amino, epoxy, methacryloxy, mercapto or ureido; and through different combinations and experiments, the above results can be obtained.
[0079] The main differences between Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 4 are as follows: Comparative Example 1 did not add organophosphorus flame retardant and modified carbon black. As can be seen from the results in Table 1, the mechanical properties of the material in Comparative Example 1 are much higher than those in Comparative Example 4, but its antistatic performance and flame retardant performance are significantly worse than those of the material in Comparative Example 4. This shows that the addition of organophosphorus flame retardant can significantly improve the flame retardant performance of the composite material, but the mechanical properties will be significantly reduced; the addition of modified carbon black significantly improves the antistatic performance of the material.
[0080] The main differences between Comparative Example 3 and Example 1 are as follows: Comparative Example 3 did not add organophosphorus flame retardant and nanomaterials. As can be seen from the results in Table 1, the flame retardant performance of the material in Example 1 has been improved to reach the V2 level, and at the same time, the mechanical properties of the material in Example 1 are slightly lower than those of the material in Comparative Example 3.
[0081] The main differences between Comparative Example 4 and Example 1 are as follows: Comparative Example 4 did not use nanomaterials and the dosage of the flame retardant was different from that in Example 1. As can be seen from the results in Table 1, although the material in Comparative Example 4 has better flame retardant performance, the amount of the flame retardant accounts for 20% of the molten mixture, which is much larger than the dosage of 10% of the flame retardant in Example 1, and the mechanical properties of the material in Comparative Example 3 are much worse than those of the material in Example 1.
[0082] The main differences between Comparative Example 4 and Example 2 are as follows: Comparative Example 4 did not use nanomaterials. As can be seen from the results in Table 1, the flame retardant properties of the material in Comparative Example 4 are basically the same as those of the material in Example 2, but due to the synergistic effect of the nanomaterials, the mechanical properties of the material in Comparative Example 4 are lower than those of the material in Example 2.
[0083] Combined with the above description, the carbon treated by silane coupling agent in the embodiments of the present invention can be better dispersed in the matrix, and can greatly improve the antistatic performance; the compound use of nanomaterials and organophosphorus flame retardants can achieve an optimal balance between the mechanical properties and flame retardant properties of the composite material.
