AI Technical Summary
Starch-based adhesives absorb moisture and expand in humid environments, leading to adhesive layer cracks, reduced adhesive strength, and poor adhesion to ceramic substrates. Adding phosphate flame retardants further reduces both adhesive strength and shear strength.
A modified starch preparation method was used to introduce hydrophobic ester groups and phosphate ester structures through the Michael addition reaction of maleic anhydride and phosphate ester compounds to form modified starch, which then formed chemical bonds with a ceramic matrix. An oxidant and an antifoaming agent were added to prepare a starch-based adhesive.
It improves the water absorption and adhesion properties of starch-based adhesives to ceramic substrates, maintains flame retardancy, and enhances adhesive strength and shear strength, thus solving the problem of decreased adhesive strength in humid environments.

TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of adhesives, and in particular relates to a starch-based adhesive and a preparation method thereof, and more particularly relates to a starch-based adhesive for ceramic processing and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Al2O3 corundum ceramics have excellent performance and are widely used. In the production process of corundum ceramics, a certain viscosity is added to the slurry to improve the strength of the ceramic green body. At present, most manufacturers use PVA as an adhesive. PVA causes serious environmental pollution. To solve the problem of environmental damage caused by PVA adhesives, it is imperative to use degradable, renewable and non-polluting starch-based adhesives to replace PVA adhesives.
[0003] The starch-based adhesive mainly has the following technical problems. First, there are a large number of hydrophilic hydroxyl groups on the surface of starch, which leads to the defect of strong moisture absorption of the starch-based adhesive. In a humid environment, the moisture absorption and swelling of the starch-based adhesive will cause cracks in the glue layer, thereby significantly reducing the adhesive strength. Second, the surface of the ceramic matrix is dense and has a large number of hydroxyl groups, which cannot form effective bonding with the starch-based adhesive. In addition, the starch-based adhesive is a flammable material. In order to make the adhesive itself have flame retardancy, an external flame retardant is needed. Phosphate flame retardants are safe and smokeless, but the addition amount is large. Adding a large amount of phosphate flame retardant will cause the adhesive strength and shear strength to decrease to varying degrees. To solve the above technical defects, the present application prepares a starch-based adhesive by modifying starch. SUMMARY
[0004] The present application aims to provide a starch-based adhesive and a preparation method thereof to solve the problems mentioned in the background.
[0005] The purpose of the present application can be achieved by the following technical solutions.
[0006] A starch-based adhesive comprises the following raw materials in mass fraction: modified starch 10-12 parts, oxidizing agent 0.1-0.6 parts, defoaming agent 0.01-0.03 parts, and water 16-20 parts.
[0007] Further, the oxidizing agent is one or a mixture of more than one of sodium hypochlorite, hydrogen peroxide and ammonium persulfate.
[0008] Further, the defoaming agent is tributyl phosphate.
[0009] Further, the modified starch is prepared by the following steps:
[0010] The first step, maleic anhydride, phosphate ester compound, 1,5,7-triazabicyclo-[4.4.0]dec-5-ene are dissolved in dichloromethane in a four-necked flask, a condenser and a thermometer are installed, mechanical stirring is started, and the reaction is carried out at room temperature for 10-30 min. After the reaction is completed, the solvent is removed by rotary evaporation, and the remaining solid is washed with deionized water and dried to obtain a starch modifier.
[0011] The second step, starch and water are mixed in a four-necked flask and reacted at a temperature of 80-100°C for 1-2 h. Then, the mixture is cooled to room temperature to obtain a gelatinous starch. The gelatinous starch and anhydrous ethanol are mixed and centrifuged in a centrifuge. The obtained precipitate is activated starch particles, which are used as needed.
[0012] The third step, the activated starch particles and the ethanol solution are mixed in a four-necked flask. Then, the pH is adjusted to 8-10 with sodium hydroxide solution. Then, the starch modifier is added to the four-necked flask, and the reaction is carried out at a temperature of 40-60°C for 4-6 h. After the reaction is completed, the pH is adjusted to 5-7 with dilute hydrochloric acid. The reaction solution is centrifuged in a centrifuge. Then, the precipitate is washed with deionized water and ethanol solution and dried to obtain modified starch.
[0013] Further, the phosphate ester compound is one or more of dimethyl phosphite, diethyl phosphite, and diphenyl phosphite.
[0014] Further, the amount ratio of maleic anhydride, phosphate ester compound, 1,5,7-triazabicyclo-[4.4.0]dec-5-ene, and dichloromethane used in the first step is 0.98-1.08:1.10-2.34:0.14-0.28:6-10.
[0015] Further, the starch is one or more of corn starch, cassava starch, potato starch, and wheat starch.
[0016] Further, the mass fraction ratio of starch, water, and anhydrous ethanol used in the second step is 8-10:40-100:120-200.
[0017] Further, the volume fraction of the ethanol solution in the third step is 80-90%.
[0018] Further, the mass fraction ratio of activated starch particles, ethanol solution, and starch modifier used in the third step is 5-6:200-300:0.4-1.
[0019] Further, the centrifugation conditions in the second and third steps are 3000-4000 rpm for 8-15 min.
[0020] A method for preparing a starch-based adhesive, comprising the following steps:
[0021] After mixing the modified starch and water, the oxidant is added and oxidized at a temperature of 30-60 DEG C for 30-90 min, then a defoaming agent is added to the system, stirred uniformly and discharged to obtain the starch-based adhesive.
[0022] The beneficial effects of the present application are:
[0023] The present application uses maleic anhydride and phosphate ester compound as raw materials, and a Michael addition reaction occurs between the double bond of maleic anhydride and the phosphorus-hydrogen bond of the phosphate ester compound to obtain a starch modifier, and then the starch is gelatinized, precipitated, separated and subjected to an esterification reaction with the starch modifier to obtain modified starch. The number of hydroxyl groups in the modified starch is reduced after the esterification reaction, and a hydrophobic ester group is introduced, which effectively reduces the water absorption performance of the starch-based adhesive and avoids the problem of interface adhesion failure caused by water penetration.
[0024] The modified starch of the present application introduces carboxyl and phosphate ester structures. The carboxyl group can undergo esterification with the hydroxyl group on the surface of the ceramic matrix to form a chemical bond, and the phosphorus atom can form a coordination bond with the metal atoms (such as aluminum and zirconium) on the surface of the ceramic group. The two work together to significantly improve the bonding performance of the starch-based adhesive to the surface of the ceramic matrix.
[0025] The modified starch of the present application introduces phosphate ester groups with flame-retardant effect, effectively improving the stability and dispersibility of the flame-retardant component in the starch-based adhesive, reducing the migration and precipitation of the flame-retardant component, and achieving efficient flame retardation. The flame-retardant component is introduced through chemical bonding, which can maintain the mechanical properties of the adhesive while playing a flame-retardant effect, and solve the problem of mechanical property degradation caused by the addition of flame retardant.
