Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of the preparation of basketball sole sheet materials, and particularly relates to a fully recyclable and renewable TPU basketball sole sheet and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Polyurethane can achieve customized design of the internal structure by adjusting the types of soft and hard segments and chain extenders, and is widely used in many fields such as aerospace, electronic automobiles, biomedical, and sports shoe materials due to its high flexibility. At present, most of the raw materials for polyurethane synthesis come from petroleum-based raw materials, and the highly stable chemical bonds of polyurethane materials make them difficult to recycle and reuse. Even if a small part can be recycled by physical or chemical methods, the recycling process has problems such as high energy consumption and low recycling efficiency. Therefore, it is necessary to develop raw materials from biological sources for the synthesis of polyurethane. Among them, biomass-derived poly(4-hydroxybutyrate) has good biodegradability and biocompatibility, and it is a completely renewable polymer material. Using it for the synthesis of recyclable TPU materials has great environmental protection advantages. However, when it is used for the preparation of sports shoe sole materials, due to the high flexibility of the molecular weight and high regularity of poly(4-hydroxybutyrate), it is easy to crystallize, resulting in problems such as a narrow processing temperature range and insufficient wear resistance of the material. At the same time, in order to improve the wear resistance and anti-slip performance of the sole, some wear-resistant fillers usually need to be added, but the high melt viscosity and polarity difference of poly(4-hydroxybutyrate) easily lead to filler agglomeration and reduce the reinforcement effect. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a fully recyclable and renewable TPU basketball sole sheet and a preparation method thereof to solve the above-mentioned deficiencies of the prior art.
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is achieved by the following technical solutions: a fully recyclable and renewable TPU basketball sole sheet, comprising the following raw materials in parts by weight: 60-75 parts of TPU prepolymer, 0.5-2 parts of chain extender, 10-20 parts of recycled TPU waste, 5-10 parts of reinforcing filler, 3-8 parts of elastic regulator, 0.5-2 parts of antioxidant, 3-5 parts of anti-slip modifier, 1-3 parts of cross-linking agent, and 0.5-1 part of lubricant.
[0005] Further, the preparation method of the TPU prepolymer comprises the following steps: vacuum dehydrating poly(4-hydroxybutyrate) at 70-80°C for 2-4 hours, then adding diisocyanate and organotin catalyst thereto and continuously stirring, and gradually heating to 80-85°C and reacting for 2-3 hours to obtain the TPU prepolymer for standby.
[0006] Furthermore, the molecular weight of the poly(4-hydroxybutyrate) is 1000 - 3000, and the diisocyanate is 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI) or hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI). In this prepolymer system, the molar ratio of -NCO to -OH is 2.0 - 2.5, and the dosage of the organotin catalyst is 0.1 - 0.3 wt%.
[0007] It has good renewability and biocompatibility. At the same time, by utilizing the excellent molecular chain flexibility of poly(4-hydroxybutyrate) and cooperating with the chain extender, the TPU prepolymer is given good resilience.
[0008] Furthermore, the chain extender is 1,4-butanediol.
[0009] Furthermore, the preparation method of the recycled TPU waste includes the following steps: sorting and crushing the TPU waste from the soles, heating and dissolving it in dimethyl sulfoxide, adding 5 - 10 wt% of the alcoholysis agent and 0.2 - 0.5 wt% of the organotin catalyst, controlling the reaction temperature at 75 - 85 °C for 4 - 6 h, and finally filtering to obtain the recycled TPU waste. Preferably in the present invention, the alcoholysis agent is ethylene glycol or propylene glycol.
[0010] In the present invention, by partially depolymerizing the TPU waste, the depolymerized TPU can participate in the polymerization again, which can improve its compatibility in the system, avoid phase separation caused by direct blending, and effectively improve the problems of uneven crosslinking degree and impaired mechanical properties of the TPU waste.
[0011] Furthermore, the reinforcing filler is at least one of nano-silica, nano-silicon nitride, and carbon nanotubes. In the present invention, the reinforcing filler is preferably nano-silica.
[0012] Furthermore, the elasticity regulator is poly(butylene adipate). By adding the elasticity regulator, the glass transition temperature of the material can be reduced, thereby improving the low-temperature elasticity of the TPU basketball sole sheet and overcoming the problem of hardening of traditional TPU soles at low temperatures.
[0013] Furthermore, the anti-slip modifier is at least one of micron-scale silica, micro-nano mixed-scale silica, and surface-grafted modified graphene. Specifically, the specific preparation method of the surface-grafted modified graphene is as follows: dispersing graphene oxide in an ethanol aqueous solution, adding 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and mixing evenly, and refluxing and reacting at 75 - 80 °C for 5 - 6 h. The product obtained after centrifugation, washing, and drying is placed in toluene, adding hydroxyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and continuing to react for 10 - 12 h, and finally adding hydrazine hydrate and reacting for 5 - 6 h. After completion, it is centrifuged, washed, and dried to obtain the surface-grafted modified graphene.
[0014] In the present invention, on the one hand, the lamellar structure of graphene can be utilized to increase the surface roughness of the TPU basketball sole sheet. On the other hand, by surface grafting and modifying graphene, the surface energy can be reduced by grafting polydimethylsiloxane, preventing the formation of a water film on the surface of the TPU basketball sole sheet, thereby enhancing the wet grip of the sole sheet. In addition, the addition of surface grafted and modified graphene can improve the heat resistance of the material, contributing to the improvement of the hot processing performance of the TPU basketball sole sheet.
[0015] Further, the crosslinking agent is trimethylolpropane and / or triallyl isocyanurate.
[0016] Further, the antioxidant is a hindered phenol antioxidant and / or a phosphite antioxidant.
[0017] Further, the lubricant is at least one of zinc stearate, glyceryl stearate, and methyl silicone oil.
[0018] Step S1: A chain extender and recycled TPU waste are fully mixed into the TPU prepolymer, and then a pretreated reinforcing filler and an elastic regulator are added and fully mixed. Then, an anti-slip modifier and a crosslinking agent are added and stirred at high speed to obtain a mixture.
[0019] Step S2: The mixture obtained in Step S1 is poured into a preheated mold for curing, and the cured TPU is annealed.
[0020] Step S3: The annealed TPU block obtained in Step S2 is put into a twin-screw extruder for melt granulation to obtain TPU particles.
[0021] Step S4: The TPU particles obtained in Step S3 are put into an injection molding machine to be injection molded into the shape of a basketball sole sheet, thus obtaining the TPU basketball sole sheet.
[0022] Even further, the chain extender is 1,4-butanediol.
[0023] Even further, the pretreatment method of the reinforcing filler is: placing the reinforcing filler in poly(4-hydroxy diacid ester) with a mass ratio of 1:1 and ultrasonically dispersing it for 15 - 30 min.
[0024] Even further, in Step S2, the curing is divided into two steps. The first step has a curing temperature of 100 - 110 °C and a time of 2 - 3 h; the second step has a curing temperature of 110 - 120 °C and a time of 3 - 4 h; the annealing treatment temperature is 80 - 85 °C and the time is 20 - 24 h.
[0025] Even further, in Step S3, the temperature of the twin-screw extruder is 160 - 180 °C.
[0026] Furthermore, in step S4, the temperature of the injection barrel is 180 - 200 °C, the temperature of the mold is 60 - 80 °C, and the injection pressure is 80 - 100 MPa.
[0027] In the present invention, through the prepolymerization of poly(4-hydroxybutyrate) and diisocyanate, and simultaneously introducing the recycled TPU waste after depolymerization for repolymerization, the effective recycling and reuse of some waste materials are realized, and at the same time, the phase separation problem caused by direct use can be avoided. Meanwhile, through the ingenious cooperation of reinforcing fillers, elastic regulators, and anti-slip modifiers, the elasticity, wear resistance, and anti-slip performance of the TPU basketball sole sheet are synergistically improved. Subsequently, through the combination of stepwise curing and annealing treatment, the TPU crosslinking network is optimized, and the mechanical properties of the sole sheet are effectively improved by adjusting its crystallization state.
[0028] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The fully recycled and renewable TPU basketball sole sheet prepared by the present invention has good renewable and biocompatible properties. Adding recycled TPU waste in the TPU polymerization process realizes the recycling of resources. As a basketball sole sheet, through the design of the bio-based poly(4-hydroxybutyrate) soft segment, the TPU obtained by cooperating with diisocyanate, chain extender, and elastic regulator has excellent elasticity. At the same time, in cooperation with reinforcing fillers and anti-slip modifiers, the anti-slip performance, wear resistance, and tear strength of the basketball sole sheet are improved, especially the anti-wet-slip performance and thermal wear resistance.
