Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of polymer materials, and particularly relates to a high-solid-content waterborne polyurethane adhesive and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Traditional solvent-based polyurethane adhesives have great environmental and health risks due to the use of a large amount of organic solvents in their preparation process. With the strengthening of people's environmental protection awareness, waterborne polyurethanes have developed rapidly. Compared with solvent-based polyurethanes, waterborne polyurethanes are non-toxic, pollution-free, non-flammable, inexpensive, and at the same time maintain the characteristics of high wear resistance, high elasticity, high adhesiveness and good adhesion to various substrates of ordinary solvent-based polyurethane adhesives, and are a "green material" with great development potential.
[0003] Although waterborne polyurethanes have many excellent properties, there are still many deficiencies. Among them, the most important is that the low solid content of waterborne polyurethane emulsions leads to disadvantages such as slow drying and film-forming speed, poor self-thickening property, and low initial adhesion. The solid content of commercially available modified waterborne polyurethane adhesives is generally 15%-35%, which not only increases the transportation and drying costs, but also affects the bonding ability of the resin. Therefore, increasing the solid content of waterborne polyurethanes has become an important research direction at home and abroad. At present, the synthesis of high-solid-content waterborne polyurethanes mainly uses sulfonates as hydrophilic chain extenders, and there are also sulfonates and carboxylates mixed as hydrophilic chain extenders. By introducing hydrophilic ionic groups into the molecular chain structure through molecular design, waterborne polyurethanes with high solid content under low ionic group content are prepared. The introduction of hydrophilic groups into the polyurethane molecular structure provides a new development idea for the research of high-solid-content waterborne polyurethanes.
[0004] In summary, in order to solve the above problems, it is of important application significance to prepare a high-solid-content waterborne polyurethane. Summary of the Invention
