Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of polymer material preparation, and relates to a composite material prepared from melamine waste and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Melamine resin, a thermosetting polymer material, is widely used in the manufacture of tableware, electrical components, and decorative panels due to its excellent heat resistance, surface hardness, and decorative properties. However, the waste generated during its production and product processing contains incompletely reacted monomers and cross-linked network structures, making it difficult to efficiently recycle using conventional methods. Traditional treatment methods often involve simple crushing and use as low-end fillers, but this has problems such as low waste utilization and severe performance degradation of recycled products. In particular, when used in food contact materials, the risk of residual formaldehyde migration has become a key bottleneck restricting its high-value utilization.
[0003] Existing technologies for detoxifying melamine waste rely primarily on single physical or chemical methods. For example, steam treatment can reduce free formaldehyde levels to a certain extent. While chemical depolymerization can break down the resin network, it requires the use of strong acids or high temperatures, which not only causes severe equipment corrosion but also generates secondary pollution. Furthermore, while directly introducing adsorbents (such as activated carbon and zeolite) can partially adsorb formaldehyde, the effect is limited, and adding large amounts of adsorbents increases costs. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention aims to provide a composite material prepared from melamine waste and its preparation method. First, the melamine waste is steam-exploded to destroy its internal structure and remove surface activity. The waste is then further treated using an enzyme-catalyzed reaction and an ionic liquid-water system. Carboxylated cellulose and acid-etched polyetheretherketone are modified with a silane coupling agent. Through electrostatic self-assembly and crosslinking of chitosan and polyethyleneimine, a multifunctional microsphere filler is prepared. Finally, the modified melamine waste is mixed with various functional materials, combined with a novel resin and additives to form a uniform slurry. The composite material is then vacuum-degassing and mold-pressed to produce a composite material that meets practical production needs.
[0005] To achieve this object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0006] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a method for preparing a composite material using melamine waste, the method comprising:
[0007] S1, placing the melamine waste in a steam explosion tank and then releasing the pressure to normal pressure instantly, and immediately immersing the waste in a citric acid solution after the explosion to obtain a deactivated waste;
[0008] S2, dispersing laccase and 2,2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt in sodium acetate buffer, adding the deactivated waste to the sodium acetate buffer, and then adding catalase to obtain a deactivated waste, and mixing the deactivated waste, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate, and deionized water to obtain a detoxified waste;
[0009] S3, mixing the chitosan solution and polyethyleneimine to obtain a chitosan solution-polyethyleneimine mixture, then adding the chitosan solution-polyethyleneimine mixture to a sodium tripolyphosphate solution, allowing the mixture to stand and freeze-drying to obtain polyethyleneimine-chitosan microspheres;
[0010] S4, uniformly mixing the detoxified waste, polyethyleneimine-chitosan microspheres, modified carboxylated cellulose and modified PEEK, then adding new melamine resin and castor oil to obtain a slurry, injecting the slurry into a mold cavity and performing a pressing process to obtain a composite material prepared using melamine waste.
[0011] Specifically include:
[0012] A1, γ-glycidyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane, ethanol aqueous solution and triethylamine are mixed and stirred, and then carboxylated cellulose is added, and the mixture is refluxed at 70-75° C., washed by centrifugation and dried to obtain modified carboxylated cellulose;
[0013] A2, mixing PEEK powder with concentrated sulfuric acid, adjusting the temperature to 60-65°C with stirring, filtering, washing, and drying to obtain acid-etched PEEK, dispersing the acid-etched PEEK in KH550 ethanol solution, and curing at 120-125°C after ultrasonic treatment to obtain modified PEEK;
[0014] S1, placing melamine waste in a steam explosion tank and then releasing the pressure to normal pressure instantly, immediately immersing the waste in a citric acid solution after the explosion and transferring it to a water bath at a first temperature, while simultaneously performing ultrasonic treatment, washing it to neutrality after the ultrasonic treatment and vacuum drying it to obtain a deactivated waste;
[0015] S2, dispersing laccase and 2,2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt in a sodium acetate buffer, adding the deactivated waste to the sodium acetate buffer, adjusting the temperature to a second temperature and oscillating, adjusting the pH to 7-7.3 using a sodium hydroxide solution, then adding catalase and continuing to oscillate, washing and drying to obtain a tandem-treated waste, mixing the tandem-treated waste, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazole acetate, and deionized water, adjusting the temperature to a third temperature and ultrasonically treating, centrifuging, washing, vacuum drying, and pulverizing to obtain a detoxified waste;
[0016] S3, mixing the chitosan solution and polyethyleneimine, adjusting the temperature to a fourth temperature and stirring to obtain a chitosan solution-polyethyleneimine mixture, then adding the chitosan solution-polyethyleneimine mixture to the sodium tripolyphosphate solution, allowing to stand, centrifuging, and freeze-drying to obtain polyethyleneimine-chitosan microspheres;
[0017] S4, mixing the detoxified waste, polyethyleneimine-chitosan microspheres, modified carboxylated cellulose and modified PEEK evenly, then adding new melamine resin and castor oil, mixing evenly and vacuum degassing to obtain a slurry, injecting the slurry into a mold cavity and performing a pressing process to obtain a composite material prepared using melamine waste.
[0018] Carboxylated cellulose is surface-modified using γ-glycidyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPTES). The epoxy groups of GPTES open under weakly alkaline conditions and undergo esterification with carboxyl groups on the cellulose surface, forming stable covalent bonds. Simultaneously, the methoxy groups at the silane terminals hydrolyze in aqueous ethanol to generate silanol groups, which further condense with cellulose hydroxyl groups to form a dense siloxane coating. This dual bonding mechanism not only enhances the interfacial compatibility between cellulose and the matrix resin but also inhibits the diffusion pathways of formaldehyde molecules. Acid etching of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) introduces sulfonic acid groups onto its surface through the strong oxidizing properties of concentrated sulfuric acid, disrupting its inert surface and increasing its roughness. Subsequently, the amino groups of the silane coupling agent bond to the sulfonic acid groups through acid-base interactions. Simultaneously, the hydrolyzed ethoxy groups of the silane condense with the residual hydroxyl groups on the PEEK surface to form chemical anchor points, enhancing the interfacial bonding strength with the melamine resin and blocking the formaldehyde escape pathways caused by microcrack propagation.
[0019] The melamine waste first undergoes a steam explosion treatment. High-temperature, high-pressure steam penetrates into the internal pores and cross-linked networks of the waste. During instantaneous pressure release, the shear force generated by the rapid vaporization and expansion of water can physically tear apart the three-dimensional cross-linked structure of the melamine resin, exposing the unreacted formaldehyde monomers and oligomers encapsulated inside. The exploded waste is then immersed in a citric acid solution. In an acidic environment, the carboxyl groups of citric acid protonate the methylene bridge bonds in the melamine resin, weakening its stability and causing some cross-links to break, further releasing bound formaldehyde. At the same time, citric acid, as a chelating agent, can complex the metal catalysts remaining in the resin, blocking their catalytic effect on formaldehyde release. Ultrasonic treatment accelerates the diffusion of citric acid molecules into the deep layers of the waste and promotes the peeling of broken molecular chain fragments, forming a porous structure that provides a larger specific surface area for subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis reactions.
[0020] Laccase and 2,2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS) act synergistically to attack the methylene bridges and residual hydroxymethyl groups in melamine waste through a redox reaction. Laccase catalyzes the generation of cationic radicals from ABTS. These reactive intermediates can abstract hydrogen atoms from the methylene bridges, triggering carbon chain scission and depolymerizing the cross-linked network into short, aldehyde-containing fragments. Subsequently, catalase selectively decomposes the hydrogen peroxide produced in the reaction under near-neutral conditions, preventing the accumulation of its oxidation byproducts (such as formic acid) that could inhibit enzyme activity. It also further oxidizes the formaldehyde intermediate to carbon dioxide and water, achieving deep mineralization of the formaldehyde. An ionic liquid (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate), leveraging its strong polarity and hydrogen bond-breaking capabilities, penetrates the pores of the depolymerized melamine fragments, dissolving incompletely degraded oligomers and physically adsorbed formaldehyde. Its imidazolium cation forms a π-π interaction with the formaldehyde molecule, while the acetate anion captures the positively charged degradation products through electrostatic attraction to form a soluble complex, thereby achieving deep purification of the waste.
[0021] Chitosan and polyethyleneimine (PEI) form functional microspheres through electrostatic interactions and intermolecular crosslinking. The amino groups on the chitosan molecular chain are protonated under acidic conditions, carrying a positive charge. PEI, rich in primary and secondary amine groups, also exhibits a strong positive charge. When the two are mixed, the amine groups of PEI interact with the hydroxyl and amino groups of chitosan through hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces, forming a dynamic physical crosslinked network. Negatively charged sodium tripolyphosphate is then introduced as a crosslinker. Its phosphate anions ionically crosslink with the cationic groups of chitosan and PEI through electrostatic attraction to form microspheres. Incompletely crosslinked regions within the microspheres form through-hole channels due to ice crystal growth during freeze-drying. The resulting microspheres exhibit a hierarchical porous structure, and the porous network with a high specific surface area provides numerous adsorption sites for formaldehyde molecules. The free amine groups of PEI react with formaldehyde through nucleophilic addition to form a Schiff base, while the amino groups of chitosan capture protonated formaldehyde molecules through electrostatic interactions, achieving a synergistic adsorption-immobilization mechanism.

[0056] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: (1) the physical effect of steam explosion is used to tear the cross-linked structure, exposing the internal methylene bridge bonds and hydroxymethyl groups, and then the bound formaldehyde is converted into a free state through the laccase-mediator system, while avoiding excessive damage to the melamine main chain. With the help of the selectivity advantage of the enzymatic hydrolysis reaction, the integrity of the material skeleton is retained while releasing formaldehyde, avoiding the ineffective treatment of encapsulated formaldehyde by traditional methods; (2) the multi-level pores of the polyethyleneimine-chitosan microspheres provide high specific surface area adsorption sites, and the amino groups enriched on the surface form stable imine bonds with formaldehyde through nucleophilic addition to achieve chemical fixation. At the same time, catalase further oxidizes the formaldehyde intermediate into carbon dioxide and water, avoiding the desorption risk of traditional adsorbents; (3) the covalently bonded interface between the modified cellulose and the melamine matrix forms a dense three-dimensional network, which limits the migration of formaldehyde molecules through the steric effect; the micro-nano rough structure on the acid-etched PEEK surface enhances the interfacial bonding force through mechanical interlocking, blocking the formaldehyde escape channel formed by the expansion of microcracks.

[0091] Comparative Example 1
[0092] This comparative example provides a composite material prepared using melamine waste and a preparation method thereof. The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that the treatment of the melamine waste in step S1 is omitted, and the melamine waste is directly treated in step S2. Other process parameters and operating conditions are exactly the same as those in Example 1.
[0093] Comparative Example 2
[0094] This comparative example provides a composite material prepared using melamine waste and a preparation method thereof. The difference between it and Example 1 is that the treatment of the deactivated waste in step S2 is omitted, and the detoxified waste in step S4 is replaced with an equal mass of deactivated waste. The other process parameters and operating conditions are exactly the same as those in Example 1.
[0095] Comparative Example 3
[0096] This comparative example provides a composite material prepared using melamine waste and a preparation method thereof. The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that the mass of the polyethyleneimine-chitosan microspheres in S4 is 0, and the other process parameters and operating conditions are exactly the same as those in Example 1.
[0097] The free formaldehyde test method for the composite materials prepared in Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-3 was in accordance with GB 31604.48-2016. The test results are shown in Table 1.
[0098] Table 1 Test results of composite materials prepared from melamine waste in Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-3
[0099]
[0100] As can be seen from Table 1, compared with Example 1, the free formaldehyde content of Comparative Examples 1-3 is increased. In Comparative Example 1, step S1 is omitted, and the cross-linked network of the melamine waste is not physically destroyed. The subsequent steps fail because they cannot contact the internal bound formaldehyde, resulting in a large amount of encapsulated formaldehyde remaining in the composite material. In Comparative Example 2, step S2 is omitted. The lack of the laccase-mediator system causes the bound formaldehyde to be unable to be converted into a free state. The subsequent adsorption step can only capture surface free formaldehyde and is ineffective for internal formaldehyde. The mass of the polyethyleneimine-chitosan microspheres in Comparative Example 3 is 0. The lack of microspheres causes the composite material to lose its chemical adsorption capacity, and free formaldehyde can quickly diffuse to the material surface through interface defects.
