Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of flame-retardant polymer materials, and in particular relates to a low-smoke halogen-free flame-retardant plastic and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic engineering plastic with excellent heat resistance (chemical resistance), mechanical strength, and dimensional stability. Its rapid crystallization properties enable high processing efficiency in injection molding, and it is widely used in electronic devices (such as connectors and relay housings), automotive parts (such as sensor brackets and wiring harness sheaths), and household appliances. However, PBT is a flammable material that easily burns and releases large amounts of smoke in high-temperature or open-flame environments, making it difficult to meet the requirements of high-safety applications.

[0003] At present, the technical solution to the flame retardancy problem of PBT materials is mainly to add flame retardants, such as the common phosphorus-nitrogen flame retardants and intumescent flame retardants, which are difficult to effectively solve the smoke release problem of PBT. Among them, intumescent flame retardants (such as magnesium hydroxide) form a loose flame-retardant intumescent layer by decomposition and expansion, which can reduce smoke release to a certain extent. However, existing low-smoke flame-retardant PBT mostly relies on a high proportion of magnesium hydroxide compounding, and has defects such as high density, poor toughness, and a narrow processing window. There is an urgent need to develop innovative technologies that take into account high-efficiency flame retardancy, low smoke release and excellent processing performance. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background technology, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a low-smoke halogen-free flame retardant plastic and a preparation method thereof.

[0005] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions: A low-smoke, halogen-free, flame-retardant plastic, comprising the following components in percentage by weight: The invention comprises 12-17wt% of superfine magnesium hydroxide powder, 4.5-6.2wt% of modified flame retardant, 5-7wt% of toughening agent, 0.9-1.2wt% of lubricant and 0.3-0.4wt% of antioxidant, and the balance is PBT resin.

[0006] Wherein, the modified flame retardant is prepared by the following method: Step A1: Pentaerythritol and dioxane were mixed and heated to 60-70°C. Dry nitrogen was introduced, and phosphorus oxychloride was slowly added and stirred for 2.5-3 hours. 4-dimethylaminopyridine solution was then added and mixed. The mixture was heated to 100°C and refluxed for 8-10 hours. After the reaction was completed, the dioxane was removed by vacuum rotary evaporation to obtain a cage-type phosphate. In the reaction of step A1 above, the feed ratio of pentaerythritol, phosphorus oxychloride, 4-dimethylaminopyridine and dioxane is 0.1 mol: 0.1 mol: 3.5-4.5 g: 150-200 mL. The specific reaction route is:

[0007] Step A2: Mix the caged phosphate and acetonitrile, add potassium carbonate, and mix. Pour dry nitrogen into the mixture, slowly add acryloyl chloride, and stir to react for 1.5-2 hours. Then, heat to 80°C and reflux for 3-4 hours. After the reaction is complete, cool and filter to remove potassium carbonate. Rotary evaporate to remove acetonitrile. Wash the rotary evaporated substrate with water and vacuum dry to obtain a monoester intermediate. In the reaction of step A2 above, the feed ratio of caged phosphate, acryloyl chloride, potassium carbonate and acetonitrile is 0.1 mol: 0.108-0.112 mol: 20-25 g: 250-300 mL. The specific reaction route is:

[0008] Step A3: Dissolve the monoester intermediate, pentaerythritol tetrathioglycolate and dimethylacetamide, add photosensitizer and mix well, apply 30-40 mW / cm at room temperature. 2 Irradiate with ultraviolet radiation of high intensity and stir to react for 2.2-2.8 hours. After the reaction is completed, add deionized water for washing, centrifuge to separate the aqueous phase, and vacuum dry to obtain a modified flame retardant. In the reaction of step A2 above, the feed ratio of pentaerythritol tetrathioglycolate, monoester intermediate, photosensitizer and dimethylacetamide is 10 mmol: 42-45 mmol: 50-70 mg: 45-55 mL. The specific reaction route is:

[0009] Preferably, the fineness of the ultrafine magnesium hydroxide powder is controlled at 1500-2000 meshes, which has a stable thermal decomposition flame retardant effect while maintaining good dispersibility.

[0010] Preferably, the toughening agent is EMA-g-GMA or SEBS elastomer, which has a good toughening effect on the PBT matrix.

[0011] Preferably, the lubricant is a compound of ethylene bisstearamide and silicone powder, which has both internal and external lubrication effects and is beneficial to the molding of plastic materials.

[0012] Preferably, the antioxidant is a compound of antioxidant 1010 and antioxidant 168, which has good thermal stability and is suitable for PBT matrix processing and molding.

[0013] A method for preparing a low-smoke, halogen-free flame-retardant plastic comprises the following steps: premixing ultrafine magnesium hydroxide powder, a modified flame retardant, a toughening agent, a lubricant, and an antioxidant, adding PBT resin and mixing evenly, and then melt-extruding and pelletizing the mixture using a twin-screw extruder to obtain the low-smoke, halogen-free flame-retardant plastic.

[0014] Beneficial effects of the present invention: The present invention is based on a traditional inorganic magnesium hydroxide flame retardant system and introduces a modified flame retardant for synergistic effect to achieve high-efficiency flame retardancy and low smoke release. The modified flame retardant is prepared by reacting pentaerythritol and phosphorus oxychloride to form a hydroxyl-containing cage-type phosphate ester, which is then esterified by acryloyl chloride and the hydroxyl group of the cage-type phosphate ester to form a monoester intermediate. Finally, the thiol group of pentaerythritol tetramercaptoacetate is subjected to double-bond click addition with the monoester intermediate, which interacts with magnesium hydroxide. The specific mechanism is as follows: magnesium hydroxide has a lamellar structure, and the modified flame retardant has a branched structure. The branched thiodiester in its molecules forms a chelating effect and is loaded onto the surface of the magnesium hydroxide lamellar layer during the melt mixing process. Under high temperature environment, the magnesium hydroxide decomposes to form larger planar internal pores, and the cage-type phosphate of the modified flame retardant on the surface decomposes and promotes carbonization. A large number of carbonized small pores are formed on the pore walls of the inner pores, ensuring the high-temperature stability of the inner pores. The two form a hollow carbon network. Compared with existing flame retardants, the hollow carbon network structure forms a heat transfer barrier, extends the heat conduction path to the inside of the material, and enhances the flame retardant effect. The stable hollow carbon network structure has a multi-layer adsorption and filtration effect on smoke particles, reduces the release of smoke, and greatly reduces the smoke density. The introduction of modified flame retardants achieves a high-efficiency flame retardant effect, reduces the amount of inorganic magnesium hydroxide, and improves the processing performance of PBT materials. The thiodiester structure has a high compatibility with PBT. The surface of magnesium hydroxide is modified to improve its compatibility and improve the mechanical properties of the composite material. At the same time, it expands the application of low-smoke plastics, especially in complex structures or thin-walled products. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
