Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of flame retardants, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a coated antimonate flame retardant. Background Art

[0002] A flame retardant is an auxiliary agent that can effectively prevent materials from burning. According to the existing classification of flame retardants, it can be divided into additive type and reactive type. The additive type flame retardant is the most important one because it can be directly mixed with materials and has simple processing. Among them, antimony trioxide is an important additive type flame retardant, which is widely used in polymer materials. However, when used alone, its flame retardant effect is not good, and its content and particle size will affect the flame retardant effect. Usually, it needs to be used in combination with halogen. With the decline of antimony reserves and the restrictions on antimony mining by the state, the price of antimony is getting higher and higher. There is an urgent need for a flame retardant that can replace antimony trioxide. As a derivative of antimony trioxide, antimonate has the same flame retardant effect, but the disadvantage of the decrease in oxygen index of antimonate in flame retardant applications has not been taken seriously. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To solve the above problems, the first object of the present invention is to provide a preparation method of a coated antimonate flame retardant to solve the problems raised in the above background art.

[0004] The second object of the present invention is to provide a coated antimonate flame retardant synthesized by the above method.

[0005] The third object of the present invention is to provide the application of the coated antimonate flame retardant synthesized by the above method in flame retardant PVC.

[0006] To achieve the first object of the present invention, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] A preparation method of a coated antimonate flame retardant, comprising the following steps:

[0008] (1) Preparation of aluminum hydroxide-coated antimonate: Add antimonate to a saturated sodium metaaluminate solution, and react to obtain aluminum hydroxide-coated antimonate;

[0009] (2) Preparation of zinc oxide secondary-coated antimonate: Add zinc oxide to water, and then add the aluminum hydroxide-coated antimonate, and react to obtain a zinc oxide-aluminum hydroxide-coated antimonate flame retardant.

[0010] Preferably, in the step (1), add antimonate to a saturated sodium metaaluminate solution, ultrasonically disperse for 10 min - 60 min, adjust the reaction temperature to 50°C - 70°C, dropwise add an acidic solution to adjust the pH to 6 - 7, react for 1 - 2 hours, and after the reaction, filter, wash with water, and dry to obtain aluminum hydroxide-coated antimonate.

[0011] Preferably, in the step (1), the mass ratio of sodium aluminate to antimonate is 0.02 - 0.05:1.

[0013] Preferably, in the step (2), zinc oxide is added to water, and then the antimonate coated with aluminum hydroxide is added, and the reaction is carried out for 1 - 2 hours. After the reaction is completed, it is filtered, washed with water, and dried to obtain the zinc oxide - aluminum hydroxide coated antimonate flame retardant.

[0014] Preferably, in the step (2), the mass ratio of zinc oxide to the antimonate coated with aluminum hydroxide is 0.05 - 0.1:1.

[0015] Preferably, in the step (1), the preparation method of the antimonate includes the following steps:

[0016] 1) Add antimony trioxide, potassium hydroxide, and water into a reaction vessel and stir, then add 30% hydrogen peroxide to react to obtain potassium antimonate;

[0017] 2) Dissolve the metal salt in water, and drop it into the potassium antimonate solution. After the dropping is completed, react at a temperature of 20°C - 90°C for 2 - 3 hours. After the reaction is completed, filter and wash with water to obtain the antimonate.

[0018] Preferably, the molar ratio of antimony trioxide to potassium hydroxide is 1:2 - 2.6, the solid - liquid ratio is 1:1.7 - 2.7, the molar ratio of antimony trioxide to 30% hydrogen peroxide is 1:7.8, and the molar ratio of potassium antimonate to the metal salt is 2:1.

[0019] Preferably, the metal salt is one or more of soluble zinc salt, soluble magnesium salt, soluble calcium salt, and soluble tin salt.

[0020] To achieve the second object of the present invention, the technical solution provided by the present invention is: the coated antimonate flame retardant synthesized by the method described in any one of the above.

[0021] To achieve the third object of the present invention, the technical solution provided by the present invention is: the coated antimonate flame retardant synthesized by the method described in any one of the above is applied to flame - retardant PVC.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0023] (1) The zinc oxide - aluminum hydroxide coated antimonate flame retardant prepared by the present invention can replace the use of antimony trioxide in flame retardancy, and the antimony content of the coated antimonate flame retardant is lower than that of antimony trioxide. Under the condition of adding the same number of parts, the same flame - retardant grade and oxygen index can be maintained, and actually less antimony content is consumed, reducing the cost.

[0024] (2) The zinc oxide-aluminum hydroxide coated antimonate flame retardant prepared by the present invention has a stable and dense coating layer, wherein the outermost coating is zinc oxide, which can play a role in blocking heat transfer, and the first coating is aluminum hydroxide. After absorbing heat and decomposing, aluminum hydroxide generates water and a dense aluminum oxide layer. The volatilization of water will continue to absorb heat and play a cooling role. The dense aluminum oxide layer can also play a role in blocking heat transfer. Zinc oxide and aluminum hydroxide jointly protect antimonate, delay the decomposition of antimonate, and improve the oxygen index of antimonate.

[0025] (3) The present invention uses antimony trioxide, potassium hydroxide, zinc salt, magnesium salt, calcium salt, tin salt and other metal salts as main raw materials, and prepares antimonate by combining a single salt or a plurality of salts in a ratio, and then double-coats the prepared antimonate with aluminum hydroxide and zinc oxide to obtain a coated antimonate flame retardant. When an equal amount of antimony trioxide is replaced in the flame retardant application, the same flame retardant grade and oxygen index can be maintained, thereby reducing the use of antimony in disguise and reducing costs.

[0026] (4) The coated antimonate prepared by the present invention has simple process, short reaction time, high yield and is environmentally friendly and pollution-free. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0074] The flame retardant properties and limiting oxygen index of the finished products obtained from antimony trioxide, Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-5 were tested. The specific test methods are as follows:

[0075] Flame retardant rating UL94: The vertical method in GB / T 2048-2008 "Determination of flammability of plastics - Horizontal and vertical methods" was used;

[0076] Oxygen index: The top surface ignition method in GB / T 2046-2008 "Determination of combustion behavior of plastics by the oxygen index method" was used.

[0077] The test results are shown in Table 2.

[0078] Table 2 Performance test data of antimony trioxide, Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-5 applied to PVC flame retardancy

[0079]

[0080] As can be seen from Table 1 and Table 2, compared with the performance of Formulation 1 with antimony trioxide added, the performance of Formulations 2-6 with the zinc oxide-aluminum hydroxide coated antimonate flame retardant of Examples 1-5 added is such that the flame retardant performance of Formulations 2-6 is comparable to that of Formulation 1 with antimony trioxide added. However, this comparable performance is presented under the condition that the addition amount of antimony trioxide is the same as that of the coated antimonate flame retardant prepared in Examples 1-5. This means that compared with Formulation 1, the antimony content in Formulations 2-6 is reduced by at least 23%. This further shows that the coated antimonate flame retardant prepared in the present invention can replace the use of antimony trioxide in flame retardant materials, and can maintain a comparable flame retardant rating and oxygen index with antimony trioxide under the condition of adding the same number of parts, and unexpectedly reduces the cost of using antimony in flame retardant materials.

[0081] Compared with the performance of Formulations 7-11 with the antimonate prepared in Comparative Examples 1-5 added, the antimony content in Formulations 2-6 with the zinc oxide-aluminum hydroxide coated antimonate flame retardant of Examples 1-5 added is reduced by about 6%. At the same time, the oxygen index is increased by about 2%. Thus, it can be seen that under the condition of comparable flame retardant performance, the double-layer coating technology not only further reduces the cost of using antimony in flame retardant materials, but also reversely increases the oxygen index, enhancing the application status and scope of antimonate in the field of flame retardancy.

[0082] In summary, under the combined action of aluminum hydroxide and zinc oxide in the coated antimonate flame retardant prepared in the present invention to reduce temperature and block heat transfer, the decomposition of antimonate is delayed, and then the oxygen index is increased. Moreover, the antimony content in the coated antimonate is lower than that in the antimonate.

[0083] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and do not impose any formal restrictions on the present invention. Although the present invention has been disclosed above with the preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make some changes or modifications to equivalent embodiments of equivalent changes within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention by using the technical content disclosed above. However, as long as it does not depart from the content of the technical solution of the present invention, any brief modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
