Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of automobile interior decoration parts, and in particular relates to a thermoplastic resin composition and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of new energy vehicles, the performance and quality requirements for automotive interior components are increasing. Thermoplastic resins, with their excellent moldability, recyclability, and diverse performance characteristics, also contribute to lightweighting vehicles, thereby reducing energy consumption and improving fuel economy. Furthermore, their excellent moldability can meet the design requirements of complex automotive parts, leading to their widespread application in automotive interior components.

[0003] Commonly used thermoplastic resins for automotive interior components include polypropylene (PP), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS), and polyamide (PA). ABS and ASA-based materials are excellent engineering plastics with high gloss, good impact toughness, creep resistance, a wide operating temperature range, excellent electrical insulation, good dimensional stability, and high reliability. Due to their excellent performance, they are often used in automotive interior components such as center consoles, buttons, knobs, air conditioning vents, decorative strips, door handles, and cup holders. However, ABS has poor oxidation resistance and tends to yellow and become brittle with long-term exposure to ultraviolet light. Furthermore, ABS is inherently flammable (UL94HB grade), producing black smoke and toxic gases such as hydrogen cyanide when burned. These two factors significantly limit ABS's application. Therefore, there is an urgent need to address these issues to meet the growing demands of automotive interior technology. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the defects of the prior art and provide a thermoplastic resin composition and application.

[0005] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0006] A thermoplastic resin composition is prepared by the following steps:

[0007] Styrene-butadiene-acrylonitrile copolymer, light stabilizer, functional additives and processing aids are added to a high-speed mixer and fully stirred to obtain a mixture, which is then added to a twin-screw extruder for melt blending, extrusion granulation and drying to obtain a thermoplastic resin composition.

[0008] As a further technical solution, the raw materials are calculated in parts by weight as follows: 71-85 parts of styrene-butadiene-acrylonitrile copolymer, 1.2-1.8 parts of light stabilizer, 4-12 parts of functional additives, and 3-6 parts of processing aids.

[0009] As a further technical solution, the light stabilizer is a hindered phenol light stabilizer.

[0010] As a further technical solution, the processing aid is one of polyethylene wax, EVA wax, oleamide and erucamide.

[0011] As a further technical solution, the rotation speed of the high-speed mixer is 1000-1500 r / min, and the stirring time is 15-30 min.

[0012] As a further technical solution, the drying condition is to dry in an oven at 80-100° C. for 12-24 hours.

[0013] As a further technical solution, the functional additive is prepared by the following steps:

[0014] Step A1, adding the reaction raw materials thiodiethanol and diethylphosphinoacetic acid to a three-necked flask equipped with a magnetic stirrer, a condenser and a thermometer, then adding toluene, stirring at room temperature for 30-60 minutes, then adding p-toluenesulfonic acid, heating the oil bath to 80° C., reacting for 6-8 hours, and after the reaction is complete, cooling to room temperature, filtering, washing the organic phase with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution until neutral, drying over anhydrous sodium sulfate, rotary evaporation to remove toluene, and purifying by column chromatography (petroleum ether / ethyl acetate = 3:1) to obtain the first product;

[0015] As a further technical solution, in step A1, the ratio of thiodiethanol, diethylphosphinoacetic acid, toluene, and p-toluenesulfonic acid is 13.7 g:19.6 g:100 mL:0.8 g.

[0016] In step A1, thiodiethanol and diethylphosphinoacetic acid undergo an esterification reaction under the catalysis of p-toluenesulfonic acid. The molar ratio of the two is regulated to be 1:1, and thiodiethanol is slightly excessive to reduce side reactions. The reaction formula is as follows:

[0017]

[0018] Step A2, adding the first product of the reaction raw material and β-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl) propionyl chloride to a three-necked flask equipped with a magnetic stirrer, a condenser and a thermometer, then adding toluene, stirring at room temperature for 15-20 minutes, then adding triethylamine (acid binding agent), and then placing the device in a 45-55°C water bath, reacting in a constant temperature water bath for 3-5 hours. After the reaction is complete, filtering, rotary evaporation is performed on a rotary evaporator, and purification by column chromatography (petroleum ether / ethyl acetate = 5:1) to obtain a functional additive;

[0019] As a further technical solution, the ratio of the first product, β-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionyl chloride, toluene, and triethylamine used in step A2 is 29.9 g:29.6 g:150 mL:10.1 g.

[0020] In step A2, the first product undergoes an acylation reaction with β-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionyl chloride under the catalysis of triethylamine. The reaction formula is as follows:

[0021]

[0022] The present invention prepares a functional additive through a two-step reaction. The functional additive molecule contains three functional groups: phosphate, thioester and hindered phenol. Among them, phosphate is a phosphorus-based flame retardant, which can achieve flame retardancy through dual pathways of gas-phase free radical termination and condensed-phase carbonization, thereby improving the flame retardant performance of a matrix. In addition, thioester and hindered phenol are both antioxidant functional groups, and thioester, as an auxiliary antioxidant, can synergize with the main antioxidant hindered phenol, thereby greatly enhancing the antioxidant performance of the matrix. Moreover, the three functions are specifically integrated into one, and compared with single-functional additives, the homogeneity is good and the influence on the mechanical properties of the matrix is ​​small.

[0023] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0024] 1. The thermoplastic resin composition prepared by the present invention uses ABS as a matrix, which gives the material excellent mechanical properties;

[0025] 2. Adding hindered amine light stabilizers to the raw materials of the present invention can improve the oxidation resistance of the material under ultraviolet light and improve the antioxidant performance of the material;

[0026] 3. The raw materials of the present invention are added with self-made functional additives, which contain three functional groups and can greatly improve the antioxidant and flame retardant properties of the material;

[0027] In summary, the thermoplastic resin composition prepared in the present invention has excellent mechanical properties, high flame retardancy and antioxidant properties, and has important application value in the field of automotive interior parts technology. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0045] Comparative Example 2

[0046] Commercially available ABS resin was used.

[0047] Examples 3, 4, 5 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 were made into corresponding test shapes according to different standards and subjected to the following performance tests:
