Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of polishing materials technology, specifically to a water-polished rubber and plastic polishing material and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] In industrial production, polishing components such as polishing wheels and polishing pads are frequently used to polish the surfaces of materials such as metals, ceramics, and glass. The material of these polishing components is crucial for achieving refined surface treatment of workpieces and significantly impacts the polishing effect. With increasing demands for high-end manufacturing, precision machining, and environmental protection, the market has placed higher demands on the wear resistance, high-temperature stability, and corrosion resistance of polishing components. However, existing polishing wheel materials have limitations in terms of wear resistance, high-temperature resistance, and corrosion resistance, resulting in a short service life. Frequent replacements in actual production not only increase production costs but also hinder production efficiency. Therefore, developing an environmentally friendly polishing wheel material with excellent wear resistance, high-temperature resistance, and corrosion resistance is of great significance. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In order to overcome the shortcomings and deficiencies of the existing technology, the purpose of this invention is to provide a water-polished rubber and plastic polishing material, which has good mechanical properties, wear resistance, high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance, and helps to improve durability and polishing effect.

[0004] Another objective of this invention is to provide a method for preparing water-polished rubber and plastic parts. The preparation method is stable, easy to operate and control, has high production efficiency, and is conducive to industrial production.

[0005] The objective of this invention is achieved through the following technical solution: a water-polished rubber-plastic material, comprising 15-25 parts EVA, 12-20 parts EPDM, 14-20 parts polyethylene, 10-18 parts natural rubber, 4-10 parts nitrile rubber, 30-45 parts abrasive, 3-6 parts compatibilizer, 2-4 parts antioxidant, 2-6 parts foaming agent, 2-6 parts silane coupling agent, and 0.2-0.5 parts vulcanizing agent.

[0006] This invention combines a rubber system consisting of EVA, polyethylene, EPDM, natural rubber, and nitrile rubber, along with additives such as antioxidants, foaming agents, and silane coupling agents, to form a polymer matrix that provides support and protection for the abrasive. The abrasive, possessing high hardness and wear resistance, is uniformly dispersed within the polymer matrix. During polishing, it can withstand significant pressure and friction, effectively performing grinding and polishing. The polymer matrix is ​​firmly bonded to itself, resulting in a water-polished rubber-plastic polishing material with excellent mechanical properties, wear resistance, high-temperature resistance, and corrosion resistance. Furthermore, the polishing material has a porous structure, allowing for the storage and release of polishing material, effectively improving polishing efficiency and quality.

[0007] Furthermore, the polyethylene is low-density polyethylene.

[0008] Furthermore, the antioxidant is at least one of hindered phenolic antioxidants and phosphite antioxidants.

[0009] Furthermore, the foaming agent is at least one selected from azodicarbonamide, 4,4'-oxobisbenzenesulfonyl hydrazine, p-toluenesulfonyl hydrazine, and sodium bicarbonate.

[0010] Furthermore, the foaming agent is composed of azodicarbonamide, p-toluenesulfonyl hydrazine, and sodium bicarbonate in a weight ratio of 2-4:0.5-1.5:0.5-1.5.

[0011] Furthermore, the vulcanizing agent is at least one selected from dicumyl peroxide, di-tert-butyl peroxide, bis-(tert-butylperoxyisopropyl)benzene, and triallyl isocyanurate.

[0012] Furthermore, the silane coupling agent is at least one selected from γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, γ-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane, γ-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane, and vinyltrimethoxysilane.

[0013] Furthermore, the compatibilizer is at least one of maleic anhydride-grafted polyethylene, maleic anhydride-grafted polypropylene, and styrene-ethylene-butene-styrene block copolymer.

[0014] Furthermore, the abrasive is at least one of diamond and silicon carbide, and the particle size of the abrasive is 20-40 μm.

[0015] Another objective of this invention is achieved through the following technical solution: a method for preparing the above-mentioned environmentally friendly polishing material made of rubber and plastic, comprising the following steps:

[0016] (1) Add EVA, EPDM, polyethylene and compatibilizer to a mixer for mixing, then add plasticized natural rubber and nitrile rubber mixture and vulcanizing agent for mixing to obtain compound one;

[0017] (2) Add abrasive that has been activated by silane coupling agent to rubber compound one, and add foaming agent and antioxidant, and then mix to obtain rubber compound two;

[0018] (3) Place the second rubber compound in the mold for molding, and then cool and demold to obtain the third rubber compound;

[0019] (4) Place the rubber material in an oven for heat treatment, and then perform surface finishing to make its size and surface quality meet the requirements, thus obtaining polished part material.

[0020] Furthermore, in step (1), EVA, EPDM, polyethylene and compatibilizer are added to a mixer for mixing at a mixing temperature of 115-125℃ and a mixing time of 2-6 minutes. Then, a plasticized mixture of natural rubber and nitrile rubber and a vulcanizing agent are added for mixing at a mixing temperature of 115-125℃ and a mixing time of 5-10 minutes to obtain compound one.

[0021] Furthermore, in step (1), the plasticizing method for the mixture of natural rubber and nitrile rubber includes the following steps: placing natural rubber and nitrile rubber in an open mill for plasticizing, controlling the roll gap to 0.5-1 mm, the roll temperature to 60-70℃, the rotation speed to 30-40 rpm, and the plasticizing time to 8-15 min. This invention, by plasticizing natural rubber and nitrile rubber, can reduce the elasticity of the rubber, increase its plasticity and fluidity, and allow it to be uniformly mixed with other raw materials, thereby improving the processing performance of the rubber.

[0022] Furthermore, in step (2), the temperature of the first rubber compound system is adjusted to 95-105℃, and abrasives that have been activated by silane coupling agent are added, along with foaming agent and antioxidant. Then, the mixture is kneaded for 5-10 minutes to obtain the second rubber compound.

[0023] Furthermore, in step (2), the abrasive is at least one of diamond and silicon carbide. The method for activating the abrasive using a silane coupling agent includes the following steps: mixing the abrasive and the silane coupling agent uniformly in a certain proportion, at a mixing temperature of 95-105℃, a rotation speed of 1000-1500 rpm, and a mixing time of 10-20 min. This invention, by activating the abrasive using the above method, can form active groups on the surface of the abrasive, thereby improving the compatibility and bonding force between the abrasive and the polymer matrix.

[0024] Furthermore, in step (3), the second rubber compound is placed in the mold, the mold temperature is controlled at 140-150℃, the pressure is controlled at 5-10MPa, and the first molding is performed for 3-10 minutes; then the mold temperature is controlled at 165-175℃, the pressure is controlled at 10-15MPa, and the second molding is performed for 10-20 minutes. The first molding uses a lower temperature and pressure to perform preliminary molding and degassing of the rubber compound, so that the rubber compound is initially formed, while avoiding premature decomposition of the foaming agent; the second molding increases the temperature and pressure, and the vulcanizing agent can promote the full cross-linking of rubber molecules to form a stable three-dimensional network structure, improving the strength and heat resistance of the material; the foaming agent is fully decomposed to form a uniform cell structure, so that the polished part material has good flexibility and cushioning performance.

[0025] Furthermore, in step (3), the molded rubber compound is cooled to 50-60°C and then demolded. Cooling the molded rubber compound before demolding helps improve the dimensional stability of the product.

[0026] Furthermore, in step (4), the rubber compound is placed in an oven for heat treatment at a temperature of 80-90°C for 20-28 hours.

[0027] The preparation method of the water-polished rubber and plastic environmentally friendly polishing material of the present invention, through the design of process steps and the control of process parameters of each step, achieves good combination and synergistic effect of each raw material, so that the prepared water-polished rubber and plastic polishing material has good wear resistance, high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance, as well as good mechanical properties and dimensional stability.

[0028] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This invention combines a rubber system formed by EVA, polyethylene, EPDM, natural rubber, and nitrile rubber, and incorporates additives such as antioxidants, foaming agents, and silane coupling agents to form a polymer matrix, providing support and protection for the abrasive. The abrasive has high hardness and wear resistance, and is uniformly dispersed in the polymer matrix. During polishing, it can withstand significant pressure and friction, effectively performing grinding and polishing. The polymer matrix is ​​firmly bonded to itself, resulting in a water-polished rubber-plastic polishing material with excellent mechanical properties, wear resistance, high-temperature resistance, and corrosion resistance. Furthermore, the polishing material has a porous structure, allowing it to store and release polishing fluid, effectively improving polishing efficiency and quality. The preparation method of the polishing material is stable, easy to operate and control, and has high production efficiency, facilitating industrial production. Detailed Implementation

Corrosion resistance is tested according to GB / T 1690-2010: the sample is immersed in 10wt% H2SO4 for 24 hours to determine its corrosion resistance. Compression set is tested according to GB / T7759.1-2015: the test temperature is 23℃ and the humidity is 55% RH. The polishing pads in Examples 1-3 have a porosity of 50-60% and an average pore size of 40-70 μm. The pore structure can be used to store polishing fluid and release it through pressure changes, reducing direct dry friction between the abrasive and the workpiece and helping to improve polishing efficiency.

[0118] In summary, this invention combines a rubber system consisting of EVA, polyethylene, EPDM, natural rubber, and nitrile rubber, and incorporates additives such as antioxidants, foaming agents, and silane coupling agents to form a polymer matrix. The polymer matrix and the abrasive achieve a good bond, resulting in a water-polished rubber-plastic material with excellent mechanical properties, wear resistance, high temperature resistance, and corrosion resistance, as well as low compression set.

[0119] The above embodiments are preferred implementations of the present invention. In addition, the present invention can be implemented in other ways. Any obvious substitutions without departing from the concept of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
