[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of waterborne coatings, and particularly to a composite material for artificial leather and a preparation method of a hydrophobic carbon black paste thereof. Background Art

[0002] Due to its advantages such as safety and environmental friendliness, waterborne coatings are widely used in polyurethane (PU) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and can be used in artificial leather, automotive interiors, automotive topcoats, floors, etc. Traditional waterborne carbon black pastes are generally hydrophilic, and hydrophilic carbon black pastes are easy to achieve good storage stability. The need for self-cleaning ability in daily life limits the application of waterborne color pastes.

[0003] Herein, to solve the above problems, we propose a composite material for artificial leather and a preparation method of a hydrophobic carbon black paste thereof. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the above technical difficulties and provide a composite material for artificial leather and a preparation method of a hydrophobic carbon black paste thereof. The present invention uses a hydrophobic polymer to modify carbon black, and auxiliary agents such as a dispersant, an antioxidant, and an antifoaming agent can make the color paste have a certain hydrophobicity on the premise of ensuring that the various properties of the color paste (such as blackness, coloring power, storage stability, etc.) remain unchanged and do not affect the normal use of the color paste.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the technical solution provided by the present invention is as follows:

[0006] A composite material for artificial leather, the composite material comprising the following components in parts by weight: 20 - 50 parts of hydrophobic modified carbon black, 5 - 10 parts of a dispersant, 0.1 - 0.5 parts of an antifoaming agent, 0.1 - 0.2 parts of a preservative, 0.1 - 0.5 parts of a wetting agent, 0.3 - 0.5 parts of a lubricant, 3 - 5 parts of DMF, 10 - 15 parts of deionized water, and 20 - 50 parts of zirconium beads.

[0007] Further, the dispersant is one of sodium polyacrylate, poly maleic anhydride, or ammonium acrylate - polyethylene copolymer.

[0008] Further, the antifoaming agent is one of polydimethylsiloxane, ethylene glycol siloxane, or polydimethylsiloxane.

[0009] Further, the preservative is one or more of benzisothiazolinone and octyl isothiazolinone.

[0010] Further, the wetting agent is one of polyether - modified trisiloxane and ethoxylated tetramethyl decynediol.

[0011] Further, the lubricant is one of sodium stearate, calcium stearate, and pentaerythritol stearate.

[0012] A method for preparing a hydrophobic carbon black paste of the composite material for artificial leather includes the following steps:

[0013] Step 1: Weigh a certain mass of carbon black and dissolve it in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), and obtain a carbon black suspension after ultrasonic treatment;

[0014] Step 2: Add GMA and MMA to the carbon black suspension in a certain proportion, heat and stir while dropping an initiator, add an inhibitor after the heating and stirring are completed to obtain a polymerization product, and then add water for precipitation and filtration to obtain hydrophobic polymer-modified carbon black;

[0015] Step 3: Mix a dispersant, an antifoaming agent, a preservative, a wetting agent, a lubricant, DMF, deionized water, and hydrophobic modified carbon black, add zirconium beads to the mixture for ball milling, perform centrifugal defoaming on the ball-milled product, and filter out the zirconium beads to obtain a hydrophobic aqueous carbon black paste.

[0016] Further, in Step 1, the particle size of the carbon black is 2000 - 2500 mesh, the DMF is of analytical grade, and the ultrasonic time is 40 - 60 min.

[0017] Further, in Step 2, the molar ratio of GMA to MMA is 4 - 4.5:1; it needs to be heated to 60 - 80 °C and stirred and reacted at a speed of 200 - 400 r / min for 6 - 12 h; the initiator is azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN), and the inhibitor is hydroquinone.

[0018] Further, in Step 3, the particle size of the zirconium beads is 50 - 70 mesh, the ball milling time is 60 - 90 min; the centrifugation time is 10 - 20 min, and the rotation speed is 3000 - 5000 r / min.

[0019] Carbon black is a nanoscale functional material composed of amorphous carbon elements. Its physical form is a light and fluffy black ultrafine powder, with an extremely high specific surface area (10–3000 m 2 / g). This material is mainly prepared by incomplete combustion or pyrolysis of hydrocarbon compounds under anoxic conditions. The aqueous carbon black paste made from it has the advantages of safety and environmental friendliness and is widely used in PU and PVC plastics. It can be used in aspects such as artificial leather, automobile interiors, automobile topcoats, and floors. With the wide application of artificial leather and automobile topcoats, the demand for hydrophobic self-cleaning in this industry is increasing day by day. In this study, a hydrophobic color paste was obtained by hydrophobically modifying carbon black with a copolymer [p(GMA-CO-MMA)] of hydrophobic glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) and methyl methacrylate (MMA).

[0020] The advantages of the present invention compared with the prior art are as follows:

[0021] The present invention hydrophobicizes carbon black through a copolymer of hydrophobic GMA and MMA [p(GMA-CO-MMA)] to obtain a hydrophobic aqueous carbon black paste for artificial leather, enabling the artificial leather to have better anti-fouling, waterproof, and self-cleaning properties in daily life.

[0044] Step 1: Weigh carbon black with 2000 mesh and add it to DMF solvent, and perform ultrasonic treatment for 60 min to obtain a carbon black suspension with a mass fraction of 20%.

[0047] Performance detection method:

[0048] Stability test: Take 100 ml of the hydrophobically modified carbon black paste prepared in Examples 1, 2 and 3 respectively, put them into graduated cylinders, and let them stand for 1 day, 7 days, 14 days, 21 days and 30 days respectively. By comparing the ratio of the upper-layer paste to the total paste, the sedimentation ratio is obtained. The larger the sedimentation ratio value, the better the stability of the paste. The specific test results are shown in Table 1.

[0049] Hydrophobicity test: Coat the hydrophobically modified carbon black paste prepared in Examples 1, 2 and 3 on artificial leather PU, and use a contact angle measuring instrument to evaluate its hydrophobicity. The specific results are shown in Table 2.

[0050] Table 1 Stability of hydrophobically modified carbon black paste

[0051]

[0052] Table 2 Contact angle of water on artificial leather PU coated with hydrophobically modified carbon black paste

[0053] Performance Contact Angle Example 1 109.5° Example 2 105.3° Example 3 98.9° Unmodified Carbon Black 43°

[0054] From the comparison of Examples 1, 2 and 3, it is known that the carbon black modified by GMA-MMA copolymer has good stability and hydrophobicity. This shows that the GMA-MMA copolymer has good performance improvement on the dispersibility and stability of carbon black. In addition, it also obtains good hydrophobic effect. At the same time, the comparison between Example 1 and Examples 2 and 3 shows that adding too much or too little carbon black modification material will not improve the performance, but will reduce the performance to a certain extent.
