Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of architectural coatings, and more particularly relates to an acrylic polyurethane / silane composite protective coating, a preparation method thereof and application thereof in concrete surface protection. BACKGROUND

[0002] Concrete is one of the most widely used building materials. Due to its hydrophilic properties and porous structure, water, corrosive media and the like in the service environment can easily enter the interior through the surface micropores and microcracks, thereby affecting the strength and durability of the concrete and possibly failing to achieve the expected service performance. Preparing a functional coating on the surface of the concrete can block the adverse effects between the environment and the concrete without affecting the mechanical properties of the concrete, thereby playing a specific protective effect and improving the long-term service performance of the concrete of the engineering structure. The unique low surface energy and rough micro-nano structure of the hydrophobic coating make the coating surface and the liquid droplets exhibit a non-wetting hydrophobic state, thereby directly preventing water from carrying corrosive ions into the interior of the concrete and preventing the deterioration and damage of the concrete.

[0003] Currently, the construction of a hydrophobic protective coating on the surface of the concrete mainly includes two protective mechanisms, namely, a surface penetration strengthening type and a surface sealing type. The surface penetration strengthening type is to make the coating penetrate into the inner wall of the pores of the concrete to form a hydrophobic film and to perform a penetration crystallization with the cement hydration products to fill the micropores and improve the compactness of the surface layer. The advantage is good wear resistance, and the hydrophobic effect can still be played after wear. The disadvantage is that it cannot completely seal the larger pores on the surface, and it cannot play a finishing effect because it is transparent and colorless. The surface sealing type is to form a continuous and dense sealing film on the surface of the concrete. The advantage is to seal the surface pores and directly cut off the transport path of the external corrosive medium into the concrete. The disadvantage is that once the coating cracks, water and corrosive ions can enter from the cracks to cause the protective effect to fail. In addition, the commonly used single nano structure is relatively fragile, and the super-hydrophobic coating formed by the nano structure is easily damaged or peeled off by mechanical external force, thereby reducing the super-hydrophobic property.

[0004] Chinese patent application CN111647290A discloses a preparation method of a super-hydrophobic self-cleaning coating. The method coats TiO2 in the form of nanoparticles on the outer surface of SiO2 to form a “micro-nano dual structure”, and then modifies it with a low surface energy substance, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), to prepare a green and environmentally friendly, self-cleaning super-hydrophobic coating. Under ultraviolet light or sunlight, the coating changes from a super-hydrophobic state to a hydrophilic state after 5 minutes of irradiation, and returns to a super-hydrophobic state after being baked in a muffle furnace at 300-400°C for 2 hours. However, when the number of repetitions is greater than 3, the coating eventually becomes hydrophilic and no longer changes. The light aging resistance of the coating is poor, and the hydrophobic property is lost in a long-term light environment. In addition, the coating is transparent and colorless, does not change the surface morphology of the concrete, and cannot play a finishing effect.

[0005] Chinese patent application CN102658685A discloses a preparation method of a polyurethane / polyurea composite protective layer. The method is to brush or spray a polyurethane elastic layer on the surface of the concrete multiple times until the designed thickness is reached, and then spray at least one polyurea layer on the surface of the last brushed or sprayed polyurethane layer when it is dry. A polyurethane / polyurea composite protective coating with excellent "waterproof, corrosion-resistant, and impact-resistant" performance is prepared. However, the integrated protective coating is prone to local cracking or damage after being impacted or freeze-thaw damaged, and water and erosive ions penetrate from the cracks, resulting in overall failure of protection.

[0006] Chinese patent application CN111484761A discloses a preparation method of an anti-icing and anti-ultraviolet coating. The method is to add hexamethylenetetramine, zinc nitrate, and 1-5 micrometer Al2O3 into water and stir for 24 hours, then add fluorosilane and floating beads in turn and stir for 24 hours. A sprayable anti-icing and anti-ultraviolet coating with hydrophobic, anti-icing, and ultraviolet absorption properties is obtained. The contact angle of the coating is 153°-157°, and the absorption wavelength is 340nm-351nm. However, the micrometer structure of the single-layer sprayed super-hydrophobic coating is relatively fragile and is easily damaged under the action of external force abrasion and impact. SUMMARY

[0007] The present application aims to solve the problems of single function and insufficient durability of the prior art concrete protective coating. A kind of acrylic polyurethane / silane composite protective coating, its preparation method and application in concrete surface protection are proposed. The prepared protective finishing function integrated coating has the characteristics of damage repair and reinforcement, good durability, and hydrophobic self-cleaning, and the preparation method has the advantages of simplicity, convenience, and fast film formation, which provides support for the good application of protective coating in the field of building materials.

[0089] The difference from Example 1 is that the acrylic polyurethane coating is not modified.

[0090] Comparative Example 4

[0091] (1) A small amount of silica fume is added to 50g of epoxy resin for multiple times, and the stirring speed of a constant speed stirrer is adjusted to 500r / min until the silica fume is uniformly dispersed, to prepare an epoxy putty primer;

After being naturally air-dried at room temperature (23±2℃) for 24 hours, an acrylic polyurethane / silane composite protective coating is formed.

[0095] The difference from Example 1 is that the silane impregnant is not modified.

[0096] In order to verify the hydrophobic, durable, self-cleaning performance and other effects of the multifunctional coating on the surface of the concrete of the present application, the following performance tests are carried out.

[0097] 1) Hydrophobicity test

[0098] The static contact angle (CA) is measured by a static contact angle tester, and the average value is taken after multiple measurements to reflect the surface hydrophobicity of the coating. The larger the contact angle value, the better the surface hydrophobicity of the coating. If the contact angle is less than 90°, it is a hydrophilic surface, and if the contact angle is greater than 90°, it is a hydrophobic surface. The test results are as follows: Figure 1The roughness of the surface layer was improved, but the surface energy was not reduced, and the overall coating hydrophobicity was slightly decreased. When only the acrylic polyurethane topcoat layer was modified (Comparative Example 4), the hydrophobicity was greatly improved compared to the blank control group, but the single-layer rough structure resulted in a slightly lower hydrophobicity than the composite protective coating. The contact angles of the modified silane impregnated interlayer examples were all greater than 100°; the average contact angle of the modified acrylic polyurethane topcoat layer examples increased by about 13-23°, with an average contact angle of 95.5°. Both the interlayer and the topcoat layer were hydrophobic surfaces, meeting the hydrophobicity requirements.

[0099] 2) Abrasion Resistance Test

[0100] The abrasion resistance test was based on the standard ASTM C779 / C779M-12 "Standard Test Method for Abrasion Resistance of Horizontal Concrete Pavements". During the test, the sample was horizontally rubbed on the surface of sandpaper (1500 mesh) under a load, and the load and self-weight at the bottom generated a pressure of about 1000 Pa. During the movement on the sandpaper surface, the sample was pulled in one direction by a pulling rope to ensure that only a horizontal pulling force acted on the sample. Each movement of 150 cm was one rubbing cycle, and there were a total of ten cycles. After each rubbing cycle, the CA was measured and the average value was taken. The test results are shown in Table 3. Figure 2 After ten cycles of sandpaper abrasion test, when only the silane impregnated interlayer was modified (Comparative Example 3), the hydrophobicity of the interlayer and the topcoat layer was relatively poor, and the coating contact angle gradually decreased with the increase of the friction distance. When only the acrylic polyurethane topcoat layer was modified (Comparative Example 4), the coating abrasion resistance was improved compared to the blank control group, but compared to the composite protective coating, its contact angle decayed faster and the abrasion resistance was poorer. The contact angles of the topcoat layer group all showed a downward trend with friction, but the contact angles of the examples were all higher than those of Comparative Example 1 without modification. The abrasion resistance of the topcoat layer of Example 3, which added nano-silicon dioxide, silane impregnant and ethyl silicate, was relatively the best, and the working performance was the most stable. The bottom coat group penetrated into the concrete surface layer due to the penetration of silane, formed a hydrophobic film in the pores of the concrete, and the newly exposed surface after friction still had hydrophobicity, and the overall coating could maintain a high contact angle. The contact angles of the interlayer in the examples were all higher than 95°, always meeting the hydrophobicity requirements. The construction of the inner and outer two-layer hydrophobic coating was beneficial to ensuring the durability of the coating. Even if the topcoat layer was severely abraded and exposed the concrete substrate, the penetration and crystallization effect had already occurred within a certain depth of the surface layer of the concrete, ensuring that the coating could effectively play a hydrophobic role and avoid the entry of water and corrosive ions into the concrete interior to cause adverse effects.

[0101] 3) Surface Micro-Morphology

[0102] The surface micro-morphology and element composition and content of the sample were observed and analyzed by scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), and the surface micro-morphology of the sample is shown in Figure 3 The uncoated concrete surface has a large number of hydrophilic particle structures, and the main element composition is C, O, Ca, Si, etc., so the liquid droplets fall on the concrete surface and spread and soak immediately. The surface of the comparative example 1 sample coated with the acrylic polyurethane / silane composite protective coating is smooth, and the main element composition is C, O, Ti, Al, etc., forming a complete film with good coverage on the concrete surface. The surface of the modified acrylic polyurethane / silane composite protective coating of example 3 is rough, and the main element composition is C, O, Ti, Si, Al, etc., forming a relatively continuous polymer film structure. The polymer film wraps the nanoparticle material to form a multi-layer micro-nano composite rough structure on the surface of the substrate, so that the coating surface can store more air and reduce the solid-liquid contact area between the coating surface and the water droplets, thereby enhancing the hydrophobicity of the coating. The content of silicon element increases significantly, indicating that the silane and nano-silicon dioxide are successfully introduced on the surface of the coating, and the improvement of the hydrophobicity of the coating is verified.

[0103] 4) Corrosion resistance test

[0104] According to the Technical Code for Corrosion Protection of Concrete Structures in Marine Port Engineering (JTJ 275-2000), the coating concrete should not have bubbling or peeling phenomena after being immersed in saturated Ca(OH)2 solution for 30 days. The test results are shown in Figure 4 During the alkali immersion process, the modified acrylic polyurethane / silane composite protective coating of example 1 can maintain a relatively stable structure, and no internal gas accumulation occurs due to the erosion of the alkali solution, resulting in bubbling and other adverse phenomena on the surface of the coating. After cleaning the surface, the coating is still firmly attached to the substrate, and there is no phenomenon of whole peeling or large-area peeling, but there may be a small amount of coating peeling at some edges or local positions due to mechanical friction during the cleaning process. However, these peeling areas are very small and scattered, and will not have a serious impact on the overall integrity and protective performance of the coating. From the overall analysis, the modified acrylic polyurethane / silane composite protective coating of example 1 with nano-silicon dioxide and silane impregnant has good alkali resistance and stability during the alkali immersion process and after cleaning.

[0105] 5) Self-cleaning performance test

[0106] Selecting nano-silica powder as a representative source of pollution, water flow is continuously applied to the surface of the coating by using a dropper, and the residual condition of the dust on the surface of the coating is observed. The surface of the concrete without coating is hydrophilic, and the water droplet spreads and penetrates into the surface of the test piece as soon as it falls on the surface, and the nano-silica powder is infiltrated and aggregated to form a white stain. On the surface of the modified silane impregnated intermediate layer, the water droplet does not infiltrate, and the water flow can take away most of the powder, but a small amount of powder still remains adhered to the surface and cannot be completely removed. During the test process on the surface of the modified acrylic polyurethane / silane composite protective coating embodiment 1, as shown in the figure, a large amount of powder is taken away by the water flow, and after a period of continuous water flushing, the powder on the surface of the coating can be fully removed, and no obvious residues are observed, indicating that the coating has good self-cleaning performance. Figure 5 As shown in the figure, a large amount of powder is taken away by the water flow, and after a period of continuous water flushing, the powder on the surface of the coating can be fully removed, and no obvious residues are observed, indicating that the coating has good self-cleaning performance.

[0107] 6) Finishing function test

[0108] The brushability, leveling property, re-coatability, film-forming property and the like of the coating of the acrylic polyurethane / silane composite protective coating embodiment are tested. From Figure 6 It can be observed that there are many pore defects on the surface of the blank control concrete without coating, and if the epoxy putty layer is not provided, the modified silane impregnated intermediate layer and the modified acrylic polyurethane top coating cannot effectively close the larger pores on the surface, resulting in uneven coating surface, and the protective function cannot be guaranteed, and the finish is not beautiful. After providing the epoxy putty primer layer, the modified silane impregnated intermediate layer and the modified acrylic polyurethane top coating, the surface of the coating is smooth and flat, and the protective function and finishing effect of the coating are good. The test results show that the coating has moderate consistency, is easy to apply, does not sag and wrinkle, has good leveling property, is uniform and flat, has no coating marks, has good re-coatability, is still dense and uniform after multi-layer superposition, does not separate, forms a film quickly, is surface dry within 2h at room temperature (23±2℃), and is real dry within 24h. After the coating is dried, a flat and beautiful finishing layer can be formed, and the coating has good finishing function.

[0109] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, and is not intended to limit the present application, and any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement and the like made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
