Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of resin preparation, and in particular to a resin preparation method capable of accurately identifying characteristic spectra. Background Art
[0002] Plastics, with their excellent physical and chemical properties, have long been integrated into every aspect of our lives. Globally, approximately 400 million tons of plastic are produced and processed annually. However, most plastic products are extremely difficult to degrade in nature, and the traditional landfilling of discarded plastics is increasingly subject to environmental and regulatory restrictions. Incineration of waste plastics also leads to serious environmental pollution and carbon dioxide emissions. Statistics show that over the life cycle of plastic, every ton of plastic produced and incinerated emits an average of 2.0-2.3 tons of carbon dioxide. Coupled with the rising price of plastic raw materials, the recycling of plastic products is gaining increasing attention. However, due to the complex composition and inconsistent formulations of plastics, even within the same plastic product type, batches can vary in color, mechanical strength, flowability, flame retardancy, and other aspects. This makes recycling and reprocessing plastics challenging. After initial screening to determine the main components, the plastics must undergo cleaning, crushing, modification, reprocessing, and extrusion pelletization. Recycled plastics often have lower performance than newly produced plastic masterbatch, and the cost of recycled plastics is higher than that of newly produced plastic masterbatch. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To overcome the above shortcomings, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a series of plastic additives with specific spectral properties obtained through formulation and synthesis, namely plastic fingerprint materials. After adding a small amount, a certain type or batch of plastics can be accurately identified without changing the performance of the original plastic product, providing the feasibility of simple processing and reuse, thereby greatly reducing the pollution and carbon emissions problems in the production and disposal of plastics. A resin preparation method that can accurately identify characteristic spectra.
[0004] In order to achieve the above objectives, one of the technical solutions adopted by the present invention is: a method for preparing a resin that can accurately identify a characteristic spectrum, comprising the following steps:
[0005] Step 1: selecting, based on the characteristics of the plastic masterbatch, substance 1, substance 2, ..., substance A having characteristic spectral peaks in spectrum a of the plastic masterbatch, and mixing the substances 1, 2, ..., A in this step to obtain a mixture of spectrum a group, wherein A is a natural number ≥ 1;
[0006] Step 2: selecting, based on the characteristics of the plastic masterbatch, substance 1, substance 2, ..., substance B having characteristic spectral peaks in spectrum b that are present in the plastic masterbatch, and mixing the substances 1, 2, ..., B in this step to obtain a mixture of spectrum b group, where B is a natural number ≥ 1;
[0007] Step 3, similarly, according to the characteristics of the plastic masterbatch, select substance 1, substance 2, ..., substance X, which have characteristic spectral peaks in spectrum X with the plastic masterbatch, and mix the substances 1, 2, ..., X in this step to obtain a mixture of spectrum X, where X is a natural number ≥ 1;
[0008] Step 4: The mixture of spectral group a, the mixture of spectral group b, and so on, up to the mixture of spectral group X, are remixed to obtain a customized substance Y. The obtained substance Y has a unique artificial spectral curve, which is then identified using X types of spectra. The obtained spectral information is encoded and recorded to obtain its spectral feature database;
[0009] Step 5: The customized substance Y is mixed with the plastic masterbatch and then extruded to obtain the customized plastic substance Z. The customized plastic substance Z has all the characteristic spectral peaks corresponding to all the above-mentioned single-component compounds.
[0010] Preferably, the plastic material Z has characteristic peaks of exclusive spectral combination, and each spectral method is used as one-dimensional data to obtain X-dimensional data.
[0011] Preferably, a is one of a fluorescence spectrum, an XRF spectrum, an infrared spectrum (FTIR), and an ultraviolet-visible spectrum; the spectrum b is one of a fluorescence spectrum, an XRF spectrum, an infrared spectrum, and an ultraviolet-visible spectrum; and the spectrum X is one of a fluorescence spectrum, an XRF spectrum, an infrared spectrum, and an ultraviolet-visible spectrum.
[0012] Preferably, when fluorescence spectroscopy is used, the substance with characteristic spectral peaks present in the fluorescence spectrum is at least one of solvent Yellow 93, solvent Red 212, rare earth compound CeS, methylated solvent Yellow 93, nitrated solvent Red 212, rare earth compound CeS wrapped in ZnO shell, europium-based MOFs (Eu-MOFs), SrAl2O4:Eu2+, Ba5CaAl4O12:Tb3+ naphthaleneimide derivative PONA6, naphthaleneimide derivative PONA7, fluorescein isothiocyanate (FlTC), and tetraethylrhodamine (RB200).
[0013] Preferably, when XRF spectroscopy is used, the substance with the characteristic spectral peak in the XRF spectrum is at least one of Cu, Fe, Zn, Ag, and Pb.
[0014] Preferably, when using infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), the substance with characteristic spectral peaks in the infrared spectrum is at least one of polycarbonate (PC), polyetheretherketone (PEEK), polycaprolactone (PCL), and polylactic acid (PLA).
[0015] Preferably, when ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis) is used, the substances with characteristic spectral peaks in the UV-Vis spectrum are lycopene, azobenzene (C 12 H 10 N2), β-carotene (C 40 H 56 ), at least one of luteolin.

[0017] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0018] First, the combined use of multiple combined spectra avoids the problem of a single spectrum with limited wavelength and easy overlap and superposition of spectral peaks, and its specific information content is large;
[0019] Secondly, if we do not know which spectral characteristic peak is used, various characterization methods of known solid substances such as infrared, fluorescence, XRF, and Raman can be used, thus making the possibility of cracking the customized substance Y extremely low;
[0020] Third, the use of spectroscopy as an identification method has high specificity and accuracy, and can be used to quantify a single substance on a single spectrum;
[0021] Fourthly, the above method can be used to encrypt and encode multi-dimensional spectral information, with low repeatability;
[0022] Fifth, any single component substance in the mixed substance Y can change the characteristic peak wavelength on a certain spectrum through chemical synthesis. Therefore, the number of spectral codes of customized substance Y can increase indefinitely. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
