Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a magnetic nanoparticle as a photoinitiator co - initiator, its preparation method and application, specifically to promote the reaction of a photocuring system and optimize the photocuring resin system by using the corrosion - resistance and antibacterial properties of magnetic nanoparticles. In particular, it relates to an Fe3O4@MoS2@PEI@Ag magnetic nanoparticle as a photoinitiator co - initiator, its preparation method and application, belonging to the technical field of photoinitiator co - initiators. Background Art

[0002] Light, as the main energy source in nature, affects human life in many aspects such as photosynthesis of plants, light reflection, light therapy for treating diseases, energy converted from sunlight, industrial production, and machinery manufacturing. The two directions of photopolymerization and photoreduction in ultraviolet light research have received continuous attention.

[0003] Due to its high efficiency, energy conservation, environmental protection and other characteristics, the photocuring technology has been widely used in the fields of coatings, electronic packaging, 3D printing and biomedical materials. However, with the complexity of application scenarios and the diversification of functional requirements, the existing technology faces the following key bottlenecks.

[0004] 1. Low photo - initiation efficiency and noble metal waste problem:

[0005] The narrow photo - response range of traditional photoinitiators: Existing photoinitiators (such as benzoin ethers) mainly rely on ultraviolet light (300 nm) and have low utilization rate of visible light. For example, CN117258785A discloses an Ag / TiO2 composite photocatalyst, in which the TiO2 support only responds to ultraviolet light (absorption threshold 380 nm), and the loading amount of Ag nanoparticles is as high as 4.8 wt%, which is easy to cause a decrease in activity due to aggregation. The photo - response range of the present invention is 300 - 800 nm, with a wide photo - response range and high light utilization rate.

[0006] 2. Difficulty in recovering nano - catalysts and environmental pollution risk problem:

[0007] The separation problem of small - sized nanoparticles: Traditional separation methods (such as centrifugation and filtration) are inefficient for particles smaller than 100 nm.

[0008] 3. Insufficient functional integration and poor scene adaptability, with a single - function - dominated design problem:

[0009] Existing technologies mostly focus on optimizing single performance and are difficult to meet the requirements of complex scenarios. For example, CN117941679A provides a silver-loaded glass antibacterial agent, its transparent antibacterial resin products and articles, which have high antibacterial performance but are extremely corrosion-resistant. Another example is the Fe3O4@SiO2 core-shell structure, which can achieve magnetic recovery, but the SiO2 shell layer is inert and there is no improvement in the photoinitiation efficiency (curing time is 180 seconds), while the curing time of the present invention is 150 seconds (single layer, thickness <100μm). Summary of the Invention

[0010] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is that the present invention provides a magnetic nanoparticle as a photo-curing co-initiator. The present invention utilizes the particle dispersion in the magnetic nanoparticles to optimize the antibacterial and corrosion resistance of the coating; it can also solve the common oxygen inhibition polymerization and the aggregation phenomenon of Ag nanoparticles during the curing process, reduce the waste of precious metal particles, and improve the curing rate.

[0011] Free radicals are a process of the curing reaction. Only when free radicals are generated can the polymerization reaction continue. The presence of oxygen will compete with the polymerization reaction of free radicals and consume free radicals, preventing the reaction from proceeding, forming an oxygen inhibition polymerization effect. Oxygen is harmful and free radicals are beneficial. During photo-curing in air, the oxygen inhibition polymerization often leads to the situation where the bottom layer of the coating is cured and the surface is uncured and sticky. The present invention can solve the common oxygen inhibition polymerization phenomenon during the curing process, with a fast curing time and complete curing.

[0012] Due to their unique physical and chemical properties, noble metal nanoparticles can be applied in the fields of optics, catalysts, biomedicine, sensors, electrochemistry, etc. Especially the use of noble metal nanoparticles as catalysts is closely related to the development of the human social environment. However, due to the high surface energy of noble metal nanoparticles, they are not easy to recycle and are prone to aggregation, and these phenomena have all caused a reduction in their catalytic efficiency. Therefore, it is a research direction to require a suitable carrier and be able to solve the waste phenomenon and aggregation phenomenon of noble metal nanoparticle catalysts.

[0013] At the same time, the present invention provides a preparation method of a magnetic nanoparticle as a photo-curing co-initiator.

[0034] A typical UV system formulation is as follows:

[0035] Mixing: Add 45 g of polyurethane acrylate oligomer (Sartomer CN9010), 40 g of acrylate monomer (trimethylolpropane triacrylate), 1 g of magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4@MoS2@PEI@Ag magnetic nanoparticles), and 5 g of additives [1 g of leveling agent (such as BYK-333), 1 g of defoaming agent (such as BYK-066N), 3 g of adhesion promoter (such as Silquest A-174)] into a stirring container, and stir at a speed of 300 r / min for 30 minutes to fully mix and homogenize all components.

[0041] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0042] (1) The product of the present invention exhibits significant co-initiating and anti-oxidative inhibition effects, improving the polymerization efficiency of the photocuring resin system. On the one hand, during the photopolymerization process, PEI, as the carrier of the magnetic nanoparticle co-initiator, can reduce Ag nanoparticles to the surface of the carrier additive, and act together with the initiator to generate free radicals. On the other hand, Fe3O4@MoS2@PEI@Ag magnetic nanoparticles have superparamagnetism, which can cause them to have an effect on the external magnetic field and be able to migrate to the surface layer in the photopolymerization system. Under light irradiation, more free radicals that can initiate polymerization are generated, playing an anti-oxidative inhibition role. In addition, the nano-metal particles on the surface of the noble metal atoms are active in the zero-valent state for the polymerization reaction. Therefore, the presence of Ag nanoparticles makes Fe3O4@MoS2@PEI@Ag magnetic nanoparticles show more positive activity. The combined action of multiple factors improves the polymerization efficiency of the photocuring resin system.

[0043] (2) It improves the dispersibility of magnetic nanoparticles and their binding ability with resins. The coiled molecular chain segments of PEI will form countless small polymer "cages", which serve as capping agents for silver nanoparticles to avoid the aggregation of silver nanoparticles, improve the dispersibility of magnetic nanoparticles, and also serve as binders between magnetic nanoparticles and resins to enhance their binding ability with resins.

[0044] (3) It enhances the anti-corrosion and antibacterial properties of the resin coating. MoS2 has a layered structure similar to graphene, with excellent lubricity and anti-wear and anti-compression properties. When it is filled in the pores of the coating resin as a component of the co-initiator, it can not only reduce the entry of corrosive media into the coating, but also have a certain inhibitory effect on the original corrosion rate, enhancing the anti-corrosion performance of the resin coating. Ag nanoparticles and Fe3O4 can inhibit bacterial growth and reduce bacterial reproduction, with good antibacterial properties. In the photocuring system, through the bridging effect of PEI, they can be further dispersed into the polymer to enhance the antibacterial property of the resin coating.

[0045] The present invention discloses Fe3O4@MoS2@PEI@Ag magnetic nanoparticles as a photocuring co-initiator, and its composition and structure are as follows: A layer of MoS2 is coated on the surface of Fe3O4 nanoparticles, and then PEI is grafted through chemical bonding to form a carrier on the surface of Fe3O4@MoS2 magnetic nanoparticles. Using PEI as a coupling agent, active free radicals are formed with Fe3O4@MoS2 magnetic nanoparticles during the photoreduction process. By reducing the noble metal salt AgNO3, all Ag nanoparticles are reduced to the surface of the particle carrier to prepare Fe3O4@MoS2@PEI@Ag magnetic nanoparticles, which can be used as a photocuring co-initiator. The Fe3O4@MoS2@PEI@Ag magnetic nanoparticles provided by the present invention have small size effect and superparamagnetism, can increase the concentration of surface initiators during the photocuring process, improve the photopolymerization efficiency, at the same time can reduce the aggregation of silver nanoparticles, avoid the waste of silver nanoparticles, have better catalytic performance, and also solve the problem that small-sized nanoparticles are not easy to recycle and reuse. The magnetic nanoparticles provided by the present invention can also optimize the antibacterial and corrosion resistance of polymer resins. Detailed implementation mode

[0082] In step (3), the volume ratio of the toluene solution to the KH560 solution is 20:1; the concentration of the PEI solution used is 30 mg / mL.

[0083] Comparative Example 8

[0084] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is only that:

[0085] In step (2), the mass ratio of MoS2 microspheres, Fe3O4 NPs to distilled water is 4:1:30.

[0086] Comparative Example 9

[0087] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is only that:

[0088] In step (1), FeCl3·6H2O: 11 parts by weight; FeCl2·4H2O: 10 parts by weight; distilled water: 6 parts by weight;

[0089] In step (2), the mass ratio of MoS2 microspheres, Fe3O4 NPs to distilled water is 6:1:30.

[0090] Comparative Example 10

[0091] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is only that:

[0092] In step (4), the mass ratio of AgNO3 to the ethanol solution is 3:33; the concentration of the n-butylamine ethanol solution is 0.01 g / mL.

[0093] Comparative Example 11

[0094] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is only that:

[0095] In step (2), the mass ratio of MoS2 microspheres, Fe3O4 NPs to distilled water is 4:3:60;

[0096] In step (3), the volume ratio of the toluene solution to the KH560 solution is 13:1;

[0097] In step (4), the mass ratio of AgNO3 to the ethanol solution is 3:33; the concentration of the n-butylamine ethanol solution is 0.01 g / mL.

[0098] Comparative Example 12

[0099] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is only that:

[0100] This comparative example only prepared Fe3O4@MoS2@PEI nanoparticles without the Ag nanoparticle modification in step (4). The resulting product is Fe3O4@MoS2@PEI, rather than the complete Fe3O4@MoS2@PEI@Ag. This difference directly affects the functionality (e.g., catalytic and antibacterial properties) and stability of the material, further validating the necessity of step (4) in the present invention.

[0101] Comparative Example 13

[0102] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is only that:

[0103] In step (3), KH560 is added all at once.

[0104] Comparative Example 14

[0105] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is only that:

[0106] In step (2), MoS2 microspheres and Fe3O4 NPs are added to distilled water, and then directly transferred to a sealed reaction vessel for heating reaction without ultrasonic dispersion; after the reaction is completed, the precipitated Fe3O4 is collected using a strong magnet H40;

[0107] X-ray diffraction tests revealed that the prepared Fe3O4@MoS2 contained a high level of impurities and was of poor quality. The lack of ultrasonic dispersion and the use of a static cooling process in this comparative example resulted in significantly increased impurity content (e.g., 5-10% Fe2O3 and 3-8% unreacted raw material). However, Example 1 reduced the impurity content to negligible levels (e.g., <2% Fe2O3) by optimizing the dispersion conditions.

[0108] Comparative Example 15

[0109] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is only that:

[0110] In step (2), the mass ratio of MoS2 microspheres and Fe3O4NPs to distilled water is 4:1:30, and the reaction temperature is 200℃.

[0111] After photocatalytic performance testing, it was found that the quality of the finally obtained Fe3O4@MoS2 was poor when used, and the catalytic performance was reduced by 14%.

[0112] The Fe3O4@MoS2@PEI@Ag magnetic nanoparticles provided by the present invention have a small size effect and superparamagnetism. The small size effect is characterized by electrical testing using a four-terminal resistance tester, and the superparamagnetism is characterized by magnetic testing using a magnetic measuring instrument. The test results are shown in Table 1.

[0113] In superparamagnetism, the total magnetocrystalline anisotropy energy is proportional to K1V, and the thermal perturbation energy is proportional to kT (where K1 is the magnetocrystalline anisotropy constant, V is the particle volume, k is the Boltzmann constant, and T is the absolute temperature of the sample). When the particle volume decreases to a certain value, the thermal perturbation energy will be comparable to the total magnetocrystalline anisotropy energy, and the direction of the magnetic moment within the particle may change repeatedly between an easy magnetization direction and another easy magnetization direction as a whole over time.

[0115]

[0116]

[0117] In Table 1, it is reduced to: comparison with the performance parameters of the untreated raw materials or standard samples (such as unmodified Fe3O4, pure MoS2).

[0118] The unmodified Fe3O4 is the Fe3O4 nanoparticles obtained in step (1) of Example 1.

[0119] The pure MoS2 is the purchased MoS2 microspheres.

[0120] The magnetic properties are compared with those of unmodified Fe3O4; the electrical properties are compared with those of pure MoS2.

[0121] The catalytic performance test quantifies the material activity through the photocatalytic degradation rate and electrochemical parameters (such as overpotential). Photocatalytic degradation experiment (following ISO 10678:2010 standard); electrochemical test (following ASTM G61 standard).

[0122] A timer is used to determine the surface drying time of the polymer resin. The curing standard is the finger-touch method, that is, gently touching the surface of the coating film does not adhere to the fingers. Observe and record once every 1 minute, and record the surface drying time based on the resin surface not sticking to the hand. The antibacterial performance test of the polymer resin is carried out according to GB / T 21866-2008 "Determination Method and Antibacterial Effect of Antibacterial Coatings (Paint Films)". The antibacterial durability can be evaluated by measuring the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) to determine the antibacterial activity of magnetic nanoparticles against microorganisms or by evaluating the damage to the bacterial cell membrane and the living and dead state of bacteria by cell membrane damage dyes (such as ethidium bromide). The neutral salt spray corrosion resistance test of the polymer resin is carried out according to GB / T 10125-2021 "Artificial Atmosphere Corrosion Test Salt Spray Test". The test results are shown in Table 2.

[0123] Table 2 Performance test results of each example and comparative example

[0124]

[0125]

[0126] In Table 2, for the neutral salt spray test, excellent means no corrosion and rust spot area = 0%; good means slight corrosion and rust spot area < 5%; fair means moderate corrosion and rust spot area of 5 - 10%; poor means severe corrosion and rust spot area > 10%.

[0127] Example 1 is a kind of Fe3O4@MoS2@PEI@Ag magnetic nanoparticles provided by the present invention as a photo - curing co - initiator. In Comparative Example 1 - Comparative Example 3, the amounts of FeCl2·4H2O, FeCl3·6H2O, and PEI (Comparative Example 1) were changed; the amount of MoS2 microspheres (Comparative Example 2); the amount of AgNO3 solution (Comparative Example 3). In Comparative Example 4, FeCl2·4H2O was removed. In Comparative Example 5, the ethanol solution of n - butylamine was removed. In Comparative Example 6, the toluene solution was removed. In Comparative Example 7, the amounts of FeCl2·4H2O, the ratio of the amounts of FeCl3·6H2O and FeCl2·4H2O, the amount of distilled water as the solvent of MoS2, the volume ratio of toluene solution and KH560 solution, and the concentration of PEI solution and the concentration of the ethanol solution of n - butylamine were changed respectively.

[0128] It can be seen from the performance test results that compared with Example 1, the comparative examples have differences in many performance indicators: compared with Comparative Example 4, the antibacterial rate of Example 1 is significantly improved, indicating that whether to add FeCl2·4H2O will affect the bacterial survival rate.

[0129] Compared with Comparative Example 8 and Comparative Example 9, the corrosion resistance of Example 1 is significantly improved, indicating that the dissolution amount of MoS2 particles will affect the corrosion resistance;

[0130] Compared with Comparative Example 10 and Comparative Example 11, the curing rate of Example 1 is significantly reduced, indicating that the amount of Ag particles will significantly affect the curing rate, and the decrease in the concentration of the ethanol solution of n - butylamine will lead to incomplete attachment of silver nanoparticles and reduce the curing rate.

[0131] The Fe3O4@MoS2@PEI@Ag magnetic nanoparticles provided by the present invention have small - size effect and superparamagnetism, can increase the concentration of surface initiator in the photo - curing process, improve the photo - polymerization efficiency, at the same time can reduce the aggregation of silver nanoparticles, avoid the waste of silver nanoparticles, solve the problem that small - size nanoparticle catalysts are not easy to recycle and reuse, and have better catalytic performance. The magnetic nanoparticles provided by the present invention can also optimize the antibacterial property and corrosion resistance of polymer resins.
