Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of materials for washing machine adjusting feet, and in particular, to a material for washing machine adjusting feet and a method for manufacturing the washing machine adjusting feet. Background Art

[0002] Existing washing machine adjustment feet are mostly a combination of rubber and metal materials. The rubber is commonly made of butyl rubber, but butyl rubber has a low shock absorption efficiency and requires a high proportion of filler to improve strength, wear resistance, and shock absorption. Furthermore, due to poor mutual adhesion, the butyl rubber must be coated with a special adhesive and pre-baked when bonding to the metal screw base. Otherwise, debonding is likely to occur, and the bonding interface may crack under long-term vibration, causing the foot pad to separate from the base. This situation results in poor wear resistance for current washing machine adjustment feet, and poor shock absorption when the machine is moving at high speeds, affecting the user experience and service life.

[0003] Today's washing machine adjustment feet are mostly made of butyl rubber material, which has poor shock absorption effect when the washing machine is running at high speed, especially in low temperature environment. It is more obvious, noisy and the machine shakes a lot, affecting the user experience and shortening the service life of the washing machine.

[0020] The drawings described herein are used to provide a further understanding of the present application and constitute a part of the present application. The illustrative embodiments of the present application and their descriptions are used to explain the present application and do not constitute an improper limitation on the present application. In the drawings: Figure 1 This is a flow chart of a method for manufacturing an adjusting foot made of a material for a washing machine adjusting foot according to an embodiment of the present application. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] In order to make the technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more clearly understood, the exemplary embodiments of the present application are further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, and are not an exhaustive list of all the embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other unless they conflict.

[0022] Example 1

[0023] The materials of the washing machine adjustment feet of the embodiment of the present application include: Graft-modified brominated butyl rubber, 30-45 parts by weight; Graft-modified SEBS, 10-30 parts by mass; Filler, 25-40 parts by mass; Tackifying resin, 5-10 parts by mass; Cross-linked resin, 1-5 parts by mass; Active agent, 1-5 parts by mass; Vulcanizing agent, 1-3 parts by mass; Processing aid, 1-3 parts by mass.

[0024] The total weight of each component is 100 parts.

[0025] The material of the washing machine adjustment foot in the embodiment of the present application is based on graft-modified brominated butyl rubber. Bromination improves the rubber's processability and reactivity, resulting in longer C-Br bonds and stronger molecular chain mobility. Graft copolymerization (i.e., graft modification) further increases the molecular chain's steric resistance, enhances the intermolecular friction, improves the damping performance and the material's damping factor, tanδ, thereby enhancing the material's damping and vibration reduction effects. This in turn improves the washing machine's damping and vibration reduction performance and low-temperature resistance, enhancing the user experience and extending the machine's service life.

[0026] The material of the washing machine adjustment foot is grafted modified SEBS. The presence of benzene rings in SEBS leads to large steric hindrance, making it difficult for the molecular chain to rotate, and can also improve the damping performance of the material. At the same time, graft copolymerization (i.e. graft modification) is used, mainly by introducing polar / rigid groups such as maleic anhydride and hydroxyethyl acrylate, to increase hydrogen bonds and dipole-dipole interactions between molecular chains, increase internal friction, further effectively increase the resistance of the molecular chain and improve shock absorption performance.

[0027] The material of the washing machine adjustment foot has fillers, and small-particle fillers (i.e., fillers) are added. The addition of fillers can increase the internal friction of the material of the washing machine adjustment foot and improve the shock absorption and damping performance.

[0028] Specifically, SEBS uses oil-extended SEBS. Oil-extended SEBS and bromobutyl rubber have similar viscosities and hardness, resulting in excellent process compatibility and improved adaptability in low-temperature environments. Oil-extended SEBS is a modified material obtained by physically mixing oil into SEBS (styrene-ethylene / butylene-styrene block copolymer).

[0029] Specifically, tackifying resins can significantly enhance the damping properties of materials. This mechanism of action stems primarily from their unique molecular properties. Tackifying resins typically have a low molecular weight (only a few hundred). When the ambient temperature rises above their softening point, the tackifying resin melts. In this molten state, the tackifying resin molecules begin to move as complete, long chains. This chain-wide motion requires overcoming greater frictional resistance than the motion of molecular segments, consuming more mechanical energy.

[0030] Specifically, under appropriate cross-linking, the movement of molecular segments of the cross-linked resin is restricted, the spatial resistance becomes larger, and the damping and shock absorption performance can be increased to a certain extent.

[0031] In practice, the grafting monomer used in the graft-modified brominated butyl rubber is one of the following: Maleic anhydride MAH, methyl methacrylate MMA, glycidyl methacrylate GMA, acrylic acid AA, hydroxyethyl acrylate HEA; Among them, the grafting rate of the grafting monomer used in the graft-modified brominated butyl rubber is in the range of greater than or equal to 1.5% and less than or equal to 3.0%; the Mooney viscosity of the grafting monomer used in the graft-modified brominated butyl rubber is in the range of greater than or equal to 40 and less than or equal to 65.

[0032] In practice, when the total mass parts of the brominated butyl rubber are 100 parts, the mass parts of the bromine content are 1.5-2.5 parts.

[0033] In practice, the grafting monomer of the graft-modified SEBS is one of the following: Maleic anhydride MAH, methyl methacrylate MMA, glycidyl methacrylate GMA, acrylic acid AA, hydroxyethyl acrylate HEA; Among them, the grafting rate of the grafting monomer of the grafted modified SEBS is in the range of greater than or equal to 1.0% and less than or equal to 2.5%, the epoxy value is in the range of greater than or equal to 0.4 mmol / g and less than or equal to 1.5 mmol / g, and the melt index is in the range of greater than or equal to 5 g / 10min and less than or equal to 25 g / 10min.

[0034] In practice, the filler is one or more of the following: Carbon black, white carbon black, kaolin, nano calcium carbonate, talc; The tackifying resin is one or more of the following: C5 petroleum resin, C9 petroleum resin, hydrogenated rosin glycerol ester, maleic anhydride modified rosin; The activation temperature range of the tackifying resin is greater than or equal to 90° C. and less than or equal to 120° C. The cross-linking resin is one or more of the following: Alkylphenol-formaldehyde resin, bromomethylphenol-formaldehyde resin; The active agent is one or more of the following: ZnO, MgO, stearic acid.

[0036] Different manufacturers or brands may also achieve the above effects.

[0037] Specifically, the graft-modified SEBS is selected from one of the following: The grafting type of Kraton is MAH-grafted FG1901X, and the grafting type is GMA-grafted FG1924X; The grafting types of Japan's Asahi Chemical are MAH-grafted Tuftec M1913 and MAH-grafted Tuftec M1943; LG Chem's grafting type is MAH-grafted LG SEBS-g-MAH; Dow's grafting type is MAH-grafted Infuse™ 9807; Sinopec's grafting type is MAH grafted YH-602, and the grafting type is acrylic acid grafted YH-605.

[0038] Different manufacturers or brands may also achieve the above effects.

[0039] There are many types of fillers, preferably carbon black, white carbon black, kaolin, calcium carbonate, talc, etc. Small particle size fillers are preferred, as they can increase the specific surface area of ​​the material and thus increase the internal friction of the molecules, which is beneficial to improving the damping and shock absorption performance.
