Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of adhesives, and in particular to an acrylic resin polyol composition, a moisture-curing hot melt adhesive and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Moisture-curing hot melt adhesive is an adhesive with a urethane prepolymer containing an isocyanate group at the end as the main component. It is widely used in various fields such as textile materials, woodworking materials, construction materials and electronic materials. Moisture-curing hot melt adhesive is solid or semi-solid at room temperature. It melts when heated to a certain temperature and becomes fluid and is coated on a substrate. It is then attached to another adherend and cooled and solidified for initial bonding. It then absorbs moisture from the atmosphere to cross-link the isocyanate groups for moisture-curing, thereby increasing the molecular weight of the urethane prepolymer, thereby improving the cohesive strength, heat resistance and final bonding strength of the hot melt adhesive. An ideal moisture-curing hot melt adhesive should have high initial bonding strength, high final bonding strength and a long open time. By adding thermoplastic acrylic resin and utilizing the physical cooling effect of the thermoplastic acrylic resin, the initial cohesive strength of the moisture-curing hot melt adhesive can be improved and the initial bonding strength can be increased.

[0003] U.S. Patent No. 5,021,507 discloses improving the initial cohesive strength and thus the initial bonding strength of a moisture-curing hot melt adhesive by adding an acrylic resin. However, the open time of the hot melt adhesive is less than ideal. Chinese Patent No. CN100547009C discloses a moisture-curing hot melt adhesive prepared by adding a mixed acrylic resin powder containing high and low molecular weight, exhibiting good initial bonding strength and a long open time. However, the acrylic resin powder is mainly prepared by emulsion polymerization or suspension polymerization, and inevitably contains emulsifier and dispersant residues that migrate to the product surface, potentially adversely affecting the final product performance. Chinese Patent No. CN111286294A discloses preparing an acrylic resin in a polyether polyol, directly applying it to the synthesis of a urethane prepolymer without separation and purification, to prepare a moisture-curing hot melt adhesive with good initial tack and sustained tack. However, the acrylic resin prepared in this manner has a single glass transition temperature, making it difficult to achieve a dynamic balance between the initial bonding strength and open time of the moisture-curing hot melt adhesive. Furthermore, the acrylic resin lacks good temperature adaptability, making it difficult to meet the bonding requirements under different seasonal temperature conditions. Summary of the Invention

[0041] Specifically, the acrylic resin composition comprises, by weight, 1 to 40 parts of a first acrylic resin (A), 2 to 50 parts of a second acrylic resin (B), and 50 to 100 parts of a polyol.

[0042] The polyol is not only a raw material for preparing the urethane prepolymer, but also a medium for polymerization and dispersion of the first acrylic resin (A) and the second acrylic resin (B).

When the amounts of the second alkyl (meth)acrylate (mb) and the silicon-containing (meth)acrylate are within these ranges, the resulting moisture-curable hot melt adhesive can improve low-temperature adhesion.

[0075] In some examples, the weight ratio of the first part of the initiator, the second part of the initiator and the third part of the initiator is 9:(5-18):(0.1-4), which is conducive to initiating the polymerization reaction at different stages.

[0076] In some examples, the weight ratio of the first part of polyol, the second part of polyol and the third part of polyol is (2-3):(7-10):(3-5), which is beneficial for uniform dispersion of raw materials and control of reaction rate.

[0077] In some examples, a method for manufacturing a moisture-curing hot melt adhesive includes the following steps:

[0078] Step I: The acrylic resin polyol composition and the polyester polyol are mixed and stirred uniformly, and vacuum dehydrated at 110° C. to 130° C. for 2 to 3 hours, maintaining the vacuum degree below -0.095 MPa.

[0079] Step II: Cool to 90-100°C, break the vacuum with nitrogen, add the measured polyisocyanate, and react at 100-110°C for 2-3 hours. Keep the vacuum degree below -0.095 MPa during the reaction. After the reaction is completed, discharge the material while hot under a nitrogen atmosphere to obtain a urethane prepolymer, which is a moisture-curing hot melt adhesive.

[0080] The present invention will be described below by way of Examples and Comparative Examples. However, the present invention is not limited to these Examples as long as the present invention does not depart from the scope of the present invention.

[0081] Here, the glass transition temperature (hereinafter also referred to as "Tg") is a value calculated based on the following FOX equation. In this specification, the unit of Tg is (°C). Specifically, the Tg of an acrylic resin obtained by copolymerizing n monomers can be regarded as a value calculated based on the Tg of the homopolymer of each monomer.

[0082] 1 / (273+Tg)=∑(Wn / (273+Tgn))

[0083] In the formula, Wn represents the mass fraction of monomer n, and Tgn represents the glass transition temperature (° C.) of the homopolymer of monomer n. Here, the mass fraction is the ratio of the charge amount of monomer n to the total charge amount of all monomers.

[0122]

[0123]

[0124] In order to evaluate the adhesive properties of the moisture-curing hot melt adhesives in the examples and comparative examples, the initial tack strength and the final tack strength at different temperatures were tested; in order to evaluate the coating performance, the viscosity and open time were measured.

[0125] The test procedures and evaluation criteria are shown below.

[0126] (Initial adhesion strength and final adhesion strength)

[0127] Base material: co-extruded board; membrane material: PVC film, thickness 320μm, dyne value 32~34;

[0128] Test conditions: The initial adhesive strength of the comparative example of the embodiment of the present invention was tested for 10 minutes at a temperature of 20°C and a humidity of 45%. The prepared samples were placed in an environment of 5°C and 30°C and a humidity of 45% for 24 hours, respectively, for final adhesive strength testing.

[0129] Test method:

[0130] Heat the moisture-curing hot melt adhesive to 120-130°C and melt it into a fluid state. Roller-coat it on the substrate at a rate of 30g / m2, adhere to the prepared film material, and press the veneer with the same pressure. Cut a 25mm wide PVC film on the veneer and use a handheld tensile gauge to measure the initial adhesion strength at 180° for 10 minutes. Place the prepared samples in an environment of 5°C and 30°C and 45% humidity for 24 hours, cut a 25mm wide PVC film, and use a handheld tensile gauge to measure the final adhesion strength at 5°C and 30°C at 180°.

[0131] (Opening Hours)

[0132] Heat the moisture-curing hot melt adhesive to 120-130°C to melt it into a fluid state. Apply 30g / m² of adhesive to the substrate with a roller. Then, at an ambient temperature of 20°C, press the PVC film onto the substrate with your fingers and quickly peel it off. The open time is the time from the time the hot melt adhesive is applied to the substrate to the time the PVC film is peeled off without any adhesive residue.

[0133] (Viscosity)

[0134] The viscosity was measured using a viscometer (manufactured by Brookfield Engineering Labs).

[0135] The melted moisture-curable hot melt adhesive (10.5 g) was placed in a viscosity tube, a spindle (No. 27) was inserted into the viscometer, and the viscometer was allowed to stand for 30 minutes at 125°C. After rotating the spindle at 10 rpm for 1 minute, the melt viscosity was measured at 125°C.

[0136] As can be seen from Table 2 above, the moisture-curing hot melt adhesives prepared in Examples 1 to 4 of the present invention have better initial adhesion strength and longer open time than those in Comparative Examples 1 to 3, and exhibit better temperature adaptability, with good adhesion at both -10°C and 30°C, which can meet the bonding requirements under different seasonal temperatures.

[0137] The above is a further detailed description of the present invention in conjunction with specific preferred embodiments, and the specific implementation of the present invention should not be considered to be limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art of the present invention, without departing from the concept of the present invention, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made, which should be considered to fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
