Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of defoamers, and specifically to a bulk defoamer applied to an aqueous coating and ink system and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Defoamers are mainly divided into silicone defoamers and non-silicone defoamers. The defoamers applied in coatings are mainly two categories: modified silicone defoamers and mineral oil defoamers. As an earlier developed defoamer for coatings, the mineral oil defoamer has a series of disadvantages such as poor defoaming ability resulting in a high addition amount and the mineral oil affecting the glossiness, so the mineral oil defoamer is not suitable for use in coatings with high requirements for the paint film; the main component of the modified silicone defoamer is polyether-modified polysiloxane. Compared with the mineral oil defoamer, the defoaming ability is significantly improved, the addition amount is greatly reduced, and it will not affect the glossiness of the coating.
[0003] The patent with the publication number CN1041308879A introduces the compounding of a branched modified siloxane polymer modified with alkyl and polyether and a crosslinked modified siloxane polymer prepared from an unsaturated polyether, a divinyl-terminated polyorganosiloxane and a hydrogen-containing polyorganosiloxane, which has a good emulsifying and dispersing effect on the silicone composition with alkyl, but the compounding of these two polyether-modified polysiloxanes as a defoamer applied to the middle coating of coatings and inks has obvious defects. The patent with the publication number US6426379 introduces a defoamer prepared by compounding two different structures of silicopolyether and fumed silica. Although the addition of fumed silica ensures the defoaming and foam-suppressing performance, it will inevitably make the stability of the defoamer worse, and it is easy to cause defects in the coating, and has a high requirement for the leveling property of the silicopolyether.
[0004] In addition, the defoamers for aqueous coatings are divided into two types: bulk type and emulsion type. The patent with the publication number CN104722102A introduces a preparation method of a high-efficiency polyether silicone defoamer. A polyether silicone mother liquor is prepared by modifying hydrogen-containing silicone oil with an acrylate monomer or a double-bonded single-terminated polyurethane acrylate macromonomer and allyl polyether as a composite modifier, and then compounding with dimethyl silicone oil, hydroxyl silicone oil, fumed silica, non-ionic emulsifier and deionized water to play a defoaming role. The emulsion-type defoamer prepared by this method shows unstable phenomena due to the poor compatibility between the polyether-modified polysiloxane and the silicone oil. The patent with the publication number CN103657161A introduces an emulsion-type defoamer for coatings, but its defects are high emulsification process requirements, high addition amount and easy oil-water separation. The bulk defoamer can completely avoid these problems. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of the above problems that are prone to occur in the fields of waterborne coatings and inks, the present invention provides a bulk defoamer for use in the waterborne coating and ink industries, which has good compatibility and stability as well as excellent defoaming and foam suppression performance. Especially in the field of waterborne inks, the foam suppression performance is particularly prominent. The present invention utilizes the synthesis of olefins and allyl polyethers (unsaturated polyethers) under the action of a crosslinking agent (isocyanate). During the reaction process, the isocyanate can make the reaction between olefins and unsaturated polyethers more complete, improve the crosslinking degree, and make the molecular weight distribution of the reaction product more uniform, thereby achieving better foam suppression performance. At the same time, the silicone polyether and the finally added polyether (saturated polyether) used in the present invention can both play a role in improving compatibility during the reaction process.
[0006] The bulk defoamer for waterborne coatings and inks according to the present invention is composed of the following components:

[0114] (1) Compatibility Test
[0115] Test method: Add 200 g of self-prepared waterborne coating into a 1000 ml stainless steel cup, then add 0.3% defoamer. Use a laboratory high-speed disperser to disperse at a speed of 1000 rpm for 10 min. Take a little and let it stand on a glass plate. Use a 75 um wet film applicator to scrape the coating evenly. Observe the state of the coating film and represent it with a grade. The higher the grade, the better the compatibility.
