Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of composite material technology, specifically relating to a halogen-free flame-retardant polypropylene composite material, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Polypropylene, as one of the five major general-purpose plastics, boasts advantages such as wide availability of raw materials, low price, and superior overall performance compared to other general-purpose plastics. It is easy to process, has good heat and chemical resistance, and offers diverse modification options, making it widely used in industries such as home appliances, automobiles, and electronics. However, polypropylene itself is flammable. When used in household appliances such as refrigerators, washing machines, and kitchen and bathroom appliances, flame-retardant modification is often necessary to improve safety.
[0003] Currently, there are many studies and reports on flame-retardant polypropylene materials. For example, CN109721838A discloses a polypropylene composite material, which is composed of 55-60 parts by weight of polypropylene, 20-25 parts of flame retardant, 2-5 parts of flame retardant synergist, 1-3 parts of aromatic plant essential oil, 6-10 parts of modified expanded vermiculite, 0.2-0.5 parts of antioxidant, 0.3-0.6 parts of lubricant, and 0.1-0.3 parts of anti-dripping agent. The flame retardant is a nitrogen-phosphorus intumescent flame retardant composed of ammonium polyphosphate and cage-like phosphate ester in a mass ratio of 4:1. The flame retardant synergist is ultrafine silica powder. The flame-retardant polypropylene material provided by this invention overcomes the problems of low glow wire ignition temperature and easy exudation in specific environments of ordinary flame-retardant polypropylene, and has excellent flame retardancy. For example, CN112442236A discloses a low-temperature impact-resistant flame-retardant polypropylene composition and its preparation method, the components of which include: polypropylene, flame retardant, and compatibilizer; the low-temperature impact-resistant flame-retardant polypropylene composition provided by this invention has excellent flame-retardant properties while maintaining good mechanical properties, especially low-temperature impact resistance.
[0004] However, in the fields of automobiles, home appliances, and electronics, materials often need to be used for a long time in hot and humid environments. Therefore, high requirements are placed on the high temperature and high humidity aging performance of materials, requiring materials to have excellent resistance to damp heat aging and voltage breakdown. However, the flame-retardant polypropylene materials provided in the prior art, including the invention mentioned above, often only focus on the flame-retardant performance of the materials, without addressing the improvement of the resistance to damp heat aging and high voltage breakdown of flame-retardant polypropylene materials.
[0005] Therefore, it remains crucial to develop a halogen-free flame-retardant polypropylene composite material that combines excellent flame retardant properties, resistance to damp heat aging, and resistance to voltage breakdown. Summary of the Invention
[0006] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this invention is to provide a halogen-free flame-retardant polypropylene composite material, its preparation method and application.

[0009] 55-75 parts by weight of polypropylene resin;

[0011] 0.01 to 4 parts by weight of quaternary ammonium salt compounds;
[0012] Anti-dripping agent: 0.1~0.3 parts by weight;
[0013] The halogen-free intumescent flame retardants include melamine-based halogen-free intumescent flame retardants and piperazine-based halogen-free intumescent flame retardants.
[0014] The halogen-free flame-retardant polypropylene composite material provided by this invention comprises polypropylene resin, a halogen-free intumescent flame retardant, a quaternary ammonium salt compound, and an anti-dripping agent. The halogen-free intumescent flame retardant includes melamine-based and piperazine-based halogen-free intumescent flame retardants. On one hand, by selecting and combining melamine-based and piperazine-based halogen-free intumescent flame retardants, and supplementing with an anti-dripping agent, the resulting polypropylene composite material exhibits excellent flame-retardant properties. On the other hand, by adding the quaternary ammonium salt compound, the stability of the halogen-free intumescent flame retardant under long-term humid heat conditions is effectively improved. Therefore, the resulting polypropylene composite material, while possessing excellent flame retardancy, also exhibits excellent voltage breakdown resistance, humid heat aging resistance, and excellent mechanical properties.
[0015] The polypropylene resin content can be 55 parts by weight, 57 parts by weight, 59 parts by weight, 61 parts by weight, 63 parts by weight, 65 parts by weight, 67 parts by weight, 69 parts by weight, 71 parts by weight, 73 parts by weight, or 75 parts by weight, etc.; and the mass percentage of polypropylene resin in the halogen-free flame-retardant polypropylene composite material is not less than 30%.
[0016] The content of the halogen-free intumescent flame retardant can be 15 parts by weight, 17 parts by weight, 19 parts by weight, 21 parts by weight, 23 parts by weight, 25 parts by weight, 27 parts by weight, 29 parts by weight, or 30 parts by weight, etc.

[0019] Preferably, the melt index of the polypropylene resin at 230°C and 2.16 kg is 1~150 g / 10min, for example 3 g / 10min, 5 g / 10min, 7 g / 10min, 9 g / 10min, 11 g / 10min, 13 g / 10min, 15 g / 10min, 17 g / 10min, 19 g / 10min, 20 g / 10min, 40 g / 10min, 60 g / 10min, 80 g / 10min, 100 g / 10min, 120 g / 10min, 140 g / 10min, or 150 g / 10min, and more preferably 5~20 g / 10min. g / 10min; If the melt index of the polypropylene resin is too high, the voltage breakdown resistance and tensile strength of the resulting halogen-free flame-retardant polypropylene composite material will decrease slightly. If the melt index of the polypropylene resin is too low, although it will not affect the performance of the final halogen-free flame-retardant polypropylene composite material, it may make the material more difficult to process.
[0020] In this invention, the melt index of the polypropylene resin can be tested with reference to the GB / T 3682.1-2018 standard.
[0021] In this invention, there are no special requirements for the specific type of polypropylene resin, as long as its melt index meets the above-mentioned limitations. For example, homopolymer polypropylene, copolymer polypropylene, or a combination of the two can be selected.

[0083] Performance testing:
[0084] (1) Tensile strength: Tested in accordance with ISO527-1:2019 standard.
[0085] (2) Flame retardant performance: The test was conducted in accordance with UL94:2018 standard, and the sample thickness was 2 mm.
[0086] (3) Electrical breakdown resistance: A 100 mm × 100 mm × 1 mm test sample was used. It was placed at 35℃ / 96% for 96 h, and then the dielectric strength was tested in accordance with GB / T 1408.1-2016 standard.

[0088] The halogen-free flame-retardant polypropylene composite materials provided in Examples 1-16 and Comparative Examples 1-4 were tested according to the above test methods. The test results are shown in Table 3.

[0090]
[0091] According to the data in Table 3:
[0092] (1) The halogen-free flame-retardant polypropylene composite materials provided in Examples 1 to 16 have a tensile strength of 17.3 MPa or higher, a flame retardant rating of V-1 or higher, a dielectric strength of 10 kV / mm or higher in the voltage breakdown test, and will not be broken down by 5000 V voltage after 1000h of damp heat aging treatment.
