Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of polypropylene particle preparation, in particular to a method for preparing yellowing-resistant flame-retardant plastic. Background Art
[0002] Plastic products are widely used in modern life, including kitchen appliances, food packaging, medical supplies, and children's products. These plastics are made from organic polymers, and during their production, organic additives are added to facilitate processing or achieve certain performance requirements. These organic compounds can easily breed bacteria on the plastic surface, posing a health risk to users. Therefore, antimicrobial plastics have become a very important functional plastic.
[0003] Furthermore, as polymer materials are increasingly used, their drawbacks are becoming increasingly apparent, with static electricity being one of them. To eliminate static electricity on the surface of materials, various antistatic agents are added to polymer materials. However, while antistatic agents eliminate static electricity on the surface of materials, they also bring about many other problems. These include poor heat resistance, easy decomposition during processing, poor compatibility with the matrix resin, destruction of the original structure of the polymer material, and reduction of the material's mechanical properties. Therefore, it is particularly important to invent a modified polypropylene particle with antistatic, antibacterial, and high strength properties. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The object of the present invention is to provide a yellowing-resistant flame-retardant plastic and a preparation method thereof, so as to solve the problems existing in the prior art.
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a yellowing-resistant flame-retardant plastic and a preparation method thereof, comprising the following preparation steps: (1) Under nitrogen protection, 11-23 parts of potassium ethylene trifluoroborate, 5-17 parts of allylhydrazine hydrochloride, 74-132 parts of toluene, and 46-78 parts of acetonitrile were mixed uniformly, the rotation speed was adjusted to 140 rpm, 2-4 parts of catalyst were added, propylene gas was introduced to a certain pressure, the temperature was raised to 60-70°C, and the reaction was carried out for 4-8 hours. During the reaction, propylene gas was continuously introduced to maintain the pressure constant. After the reaction was completed, the air was connected, 15-29 parts of hydrochloric acid ethanol solution was added, and the mixture was stirred for 40-60 minutes. The solid was filtered and washed with deionized water 3 times, and dried at 70-90°C for 6-10 hours to obtain modified polypropylene; (2) adding 85-119 parts of modified polypropylene, 3-7 parts of lubricant, 5-11 parts of antioxidant, and 1-5 parts of benzotriazole light stabilizer into a mixer and mixing for 30-40 minutes, putting the mixture into a mixing extruder, extruding the mixture, and pelletizing the mixture to obtain modified polypropylene pellets; (3) Place the modified polypropylene particles in a vacuum of 5.0x10-3 Pa environment, then, filled with argon, and cleaned in sequence at a bias voltage of 300V and an ion beam voltage of 900V, each time for 10 minutes, and introduced a mixed plasma by magnetron sputtering silicon target, tungsten target, and yttrium target, and controlled the silicon, tungsten, and yttrium plasma currents. Under the conditions of an argon flow rate of 45sccm and a bias voltage of -60V, the deposition was carried out for 4 to 6 hours to obtain antistatic and antibacterial modified polypropylene particles.
[0006] Furthermore, the certain pressure in step (1) is 5 MPa.
[0007] Furthermore, the catalyst in step (1) is any one of a Ziegler-Natta catalyst, a Phillips catalyst, and a Metallocene catalyst.
[0008] Furthermore, the concentration of hydrochloric acid in the hydrochloric acid ethanol solution in step (1) is 3 mol / L.
[0009] Furthermore, the lubricant in step (2) is any one of stearic acid acetamide, distearamide, and oxidized polyethylene wax.
[0010] Furthermore, the antioxidant in step (2) is any one of butylated hydroxytoluene, antioxidant 1010, and antioxidant 1076.
[0011] Furthermore, the temperature of the mixer in step (2) is 160-180°C.
[0012] Furthermore, the parameters of the mixing extruder in step (2) are head temperature 155~185℃, screw speed 200~230r / min, extrusion pressure 10~12MPa, shear rate 220~240s -1 .
[0013] Furthermore, the flow rate of the argon gas in step (3) is 40 sccm.
[0014] Furthermore, in step (3), the silicon, tungsten, and yttrium plasma currents are 2.5 A, 0.3 A, and 0.4 A, respectively.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The present invention uses silicon, tungsten and yttrium mixed plasma current bombardment to modify C-C bonds and C-H bonds in polypropylene particles to form active chains, which combine with the mixed plasma. At the same time, the active chains react with each other to form a stable cross-linked structure, which prevents the active chains from continuing to overflow, and then in-situ grows an amorphous silicon film on the surface of the polypropylene, significantly improving the surface hardness and overall mechanical strength of the polypropylene, while also improving the flame retardant properties of the plastic. Tungsten doping can reduce the friction coefficient of the amorphous silicon film, reduce wear when friction occurs, and thus improve the wear resistance of the plastic and enhance the mechanical properties. Yttrium is combined with tungsten to fill defects in the polypropylene and film grains, refine the grains, increase the grain boundary area, and enhance the barrier effect of the grain boundaries on dislocations, thereby reducing the dislocation density of the material and improving the mechanical strength and flexibility of the material. On this basis, tungsten and yttrium elements have good electrical conductivity and form a conductive network on the surface, which allows generated static charges to be quickly discharged, achieving an antistatic effect.
[0016] Among them, modified polypropylene is prepared by the polymerization of propylene with potassium ethylene trifluoroborate and allylhydrazine hydrochloride; the introduction of fluorine and boron elements through potassium ethylene trifluoroborate can penetrate the bacterial cell membrane, destroy the bacterial metabolic process, inhibit the growth and reproduction of bacteria, and achieve an antibacterial effect. At the same time, the presence of potassium ions can increase its conductivity and hygroscopicity by adsorbing water molecules in the air, thereby achieving an antistatic effect, assisting the chloride ions in allylhydrazine hydrochloride to further enhance the antibacterial properties. On this basis, the hydrazide structure has a high reactivity, and cooperates with the plasma current to make the amorphous silicon film more tightly bonded, thereby further enhancing the mechanical strength.
