Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of bulletproof composite materials, in particular to a bulletproof composite material and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Bulletproof composite materials are key materials in the fields of national security and public safety, and the core requirement is to effectively protect high-speed bullet bodies under the premise of lightweight, which are widely used in bulletproof vests, armored vehicles, security shields and other scenes. Traditional metal armor (such as steel and aluminum alloy) is difficult to meet the comprehensive requirements of "high specific strength, impact resistance and weather resistance" due to its high density and poor flexibility. High-performance fiber reinforced resin matrix composite materials gradually become the mainstream of bulletproof materials due to their low density and high tensile strength. However, the existing technology still has the following problems: (1) The resin matrix has high brittleness and insufficient energy dissipation capacity. Traditional epoxy resin has high crosslinking density and low elongation at break, which is prone to brittle fracture under high-speed impact of bullets, and cannot effectively absorb impact energy, resulting in excessive indentation on the back of the composite material. (2) The interface between the fiber and the resin is weak, and the delamination failure is serious. The surface of aramid fiber is smooth, and the chemical inertness is strong, and the interface between the resin matrix and the resin mainly depends on physical adsorption, and the interlaminar shear strength is small. The fiber and the resin are prone to interfacial peeling under impact, which leads to rapid crack propagation and poor multi-impact resistance. (3) Self-repairing and weather resistance are poor, and the service life is short. The current bulletproof composite materials lack certain self-repairing performance, and the micro-cracks generated during impact cannot be healed, and the protective performance is irreversible after multiple uses, and the moisture resistance and heat resistance also need to be improved. The above problems seriously limit the practical application of bulletproof composite materials.

[0003] Chinese invention patent with publication number CN102604320A discloses a flexible bulletproof composite material with a new resin matrix and a processing method. The composite material processed by the new matrix resin has no pollution in the entire production process of molding, good aging resistance and yellowing resistance, and small decline in bulletproof performance at high temperature, but its impact resistance, interface bonding performance is poor, and it lacks self-repairing ability. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a bulletproof composite material with impact resistance, interface enhancement and self-repairing function. SUMMARY

[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the purpose of the present application is to provide a bulletproof composite material and a preparation method thereof.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical scheme is as follows:

[0011] Inorganic filler: 1-2 parts;

[0012] Coupling agent: 0.5-1 part;

[0013] Wetting agent: 2-5 parts;

[0014] The chemical structure of the modified toughening agent is as follows:

[0015] .

[0016] The modified toughening agent is prepared by the following method:

[0017] S1: Under nitrogen protection, mix chloroformic nitrile, 4-hydroxyphenylboric acid and anhydrous acetonitrile uniformly, add triethylamine dropwise, react for 4-5h, and obtain intermediate 1 after treatment;

[0018] S2: Under nitrogen protection, mix intermediate 1, 3-amino-1, 2-epoxypropane and anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (THF) uniformly, add N,N-diisopropyl ethylamine, react for 10-12h, and obtain intermediate 2 after treatment;

[0019] S3: Under nitrogen protection, mix intermediate 2, cystamine and anhydrous THF uniformly, add N,N-diisopropyl ethylamine, react for 5-6h, and obtain intermediate 3 after treatment;

[0020] S4: Under nitrogen protection, mix intermediate 3, dopamine and anhydrous DMF uniformly, react for 10-12h, and obtain the modified toughening agent after treatment.

[0021] In step S1, the molar ratio of the chloroformic nitrile and 4-hydroxyphenylboric acid is 1:(1-1.2).

[0022] In step S2, the molar ratio of the intermediate 1 and 3-amino-1, 2-epoxypropane is 1:(1.05-1.1).

[0023] In step S3, the molar ratio of the intermediate 2 and cystamine is (2.05-2.1):1.

[0024] In step S4, the molar ratio of the intermediate 3 and dopamine is 1:(2-2.1).

[0025] The heat stabilizer is 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol; the coupling agent is KH-560 silane coupling agent; the wetting agent is polyether modified silicone oil; the curing agent is one of hexanediamine, diethylenetriamine and triethylenetetramine; the inorganic filler is one of nano silicon dioxide and nano montmorillonite; the aramid fiber is Kevlar K129 fiber; and the epoxy resin is E51 epoxy resin.

[0026] A preparation method of a bulletproof composite material, comprising the following steps:

[0027] S1: 60-70 parts by weight of epoxy resin, 200 parts by weight of N-methyl pyrrolidone are added into a reaction kettle, and the temperature is raised to 60 DEG C, and then stirring, 5-8 parts by weight of modified toughening agent, 1-2 parts by weight of heat stabilizer, 0.5-1 parts by weight of coupling agent, 2-5 parts by weight of wetting agent are added in turn, 1-2 parts by weight of inorganic filler is added after stirring for 20 min, high-speed stirring is carried out at 1500 rpm for 30 min, finally 4-5 parts by weight of curing agent is added and stirred for 20 h, and then resin glue solution is obtained;

[0028] S2: aramid fiber is dried at 120 DEG C for 2 h, and is laid on the unwinding device of the resin impregnator, the resin glue solution is added into the resin tank, the fiber tension is set to 4-6 N / cm, the resin tank temperature is set to 60 DEG C, the impregnation speed is set to 1-2 m / min, the content of the resin glue solution is controlled to 50 wt% by the scraper, and then the impregnated fiber is dried in a 50 DEG C oven for 12 h, and aramid / resin prepreg is prepared.

[0029] S3: the prepreg is cut according to [0° / 90°]8 alternating layering, and is put into a hot press to obtain the bulletproof composite material.

[0030] Due to the above technical scheme, the beneficial effects of the present application include:

[0031] (1) In the modified toughening agent prepared by the present application, the benzene boronic acid can form a borate ester bond with the surface of the fiber to dynamically build, which can reversibly break under impact load to absorb energy first; the disulfide bond is broken and recombined through redox reaction to further absorb energy; at the same time, the trichloro cyanuric triazine ring (rigid core) undergoes bond angle deformation to absorb additional energy. The synergistic effect of the three can increase the total energy absorption rate of the resin matrix, thereby greatly improving the ballistic limit of the composite material and effectively improving the bulletproof performance of the bulletproof composite material. In addition, the dynamic bond (borate ester bond / disulfide bond) preferentially breaks and dissipates energy under impact, while the triazine ring core remains intact, realizing the characteristics of "local sacrificial bond breakage-intact structure", and improving the fracture toughness of the composite material. At the same time, the existence of the dynamic bond significantly improves the self-repairing performance of the bulletproof composite material.

[0032] (2) The prepared modified toughening agent has a multi-hydroxyl structure of terminal grafted dopamine, which can form hydrogen bond action and pi-pi stacking with amide groups on the surface of aramid fiber, enhances the interface bonding of the fiber and the resin, effectively inhibits the impact crack along the interface, and improves the anti-multiple impact performance of the bulletproof composite material.

[0092] The bulletproof composite materials prepared in Examples 4-6 and Comparative Examples 1-5 were tested for bulletproof performance and self-repairing performance, and the test results are shown in Table 1.

[0093] The bulletproof performance of the bulletproof composite material is tested by the ballistic limit speed (V50) V 50) and energy absorption as evaluation indexes, ballistic impact tests were carried out according to the standard GJB4300A-2012 of China military bulletproof clothing. The ballistic impact test device was composed of fragment simulating projectile (FSP), 7.62 mm caliber fragment simulating projectile launcher, velocity measuring device, composite laminated plate and backing fixed support body; wherein the size of the composite laminated plate was 300 mm x 300 mm; the FSP was made of 45 steel, the surface hardness was HRC30, the diameter was 5.5 mm, and the mass was 1.1 g; the distance between the launcher and the laminated plate was 5 m, and each sample needed at least 6 shots. V 50 was the average value of 5 shots of complete penetration and 5 shots of non-penetration within a certain speed range (38 m / s). The energy absorption was represented by specific energy absorption (SEA), which was calculated by the following formula: SEA = (1 / 2m V 50 2 ) / Areal density, wherein m was the mass of FSP (kg), and Areal density was the areal density of the composite material (kg / m 2 ). The areal density was tested according to the standard HB 7736.2-2004.

[0094] The self-repairing performance of the bulletproof composite material was represented by the retention rate of V 50 before and after repair, and the self-repairing efficiency H = the value of V 50 after repair / the value of V 50 before repair x 100%.

[0095] Table 1 Performance indicators of bulletproof composite material

[0096]

[0097] It can be seen from the data in Table 1 that the bulletproof composite material prepared in the application has excellent ballistic protection performance, multi-impact resistance and self-repairing performance.

[0098] Comparative Example 1 was a bulletproof composite material prepared without using a modified toughening agent, and its ballistic limit speed, energy absorption and self-repairing performance were all poor, indicating that the synergistic effect of the rigid ring core and the multi-functional groups (phenylboronic acid, disulfide bond and dopamine) introduced in the modified toughening agent could significantly improve the multiple performances of the bulletproof composite material. The dopamine grafted at the end of the modified toughening agent could form hydrogen bond action and π-π stacking with the amide groups on the surface of aramid fibers, enhance the interfacial bonding between the fibers and the resin, effectively inhibit the crack propagation along the interface, and improve the multi-impact resistance of the bulletproof composite material.

[0099] The ballistic performance of the ballistic composite material prepared in Comparative Example 2 using 2,4,6-trichloropyrimidine is poor, mainly because the nitrogen atoms of the pyrimidine ring are not symmetrically distributed, the molecular conformation of the reaction product is more complex, and local stress concentration points may be generated, which easily causes crack propagation under ballistic impact. When the composite material is impacted, the bond angle of the cyanuric chloride triazine ring (rigid core) changes, additional energy is absorbed, the ballistic limit of the composite material is improved, and the presence of the rigid structure of the triazine ring core in the modified toughening agent allows the composite material to maintain the integrity of the skeleton under impact, improve the fracture toughness of the composite material, and thus improve its ballistic performance.

[0100] The self-repairing performance of the ballistic composite material prepared in Comparative Examples 3 and 4 is poorer than that of Example 5, mainly because of the lack of dynamic boronic acid groups and disulfide bonds. In a humid environment, the broken B-O bonds can be recombined through hydrolysis-esterification reaction; under thermal stimulation, the disulfide bond can be recombined through thiol-disulfide exchange, which can significantly improve the self-repairing performance of the ballistic composite material.

[0101] The ballistic performance of the ballistic composite material prepared in Comparative Example 5 is poorer than that of Example 5, because 2-(propyldithio)-ethylamine only contains one amino group, and the prepared modified plasticizer only has one dopamine group and one phenylboronic acid group, resulting in a decrease in interfacial strength and energy absorption, which in turn affects the multi-impact resistance and ballistic protection performance of the ballistic composite material.

[0102] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application; but for ordinary skilled persons in the art, some minor changes, modifications and equivalent changes of the above disclosed technical content without departing from the scope of the technical solutions of the present application can be made, which are equivalent embodiments of the present application; at the same time, any equivalent changes, modifications and evolution of the above embodiments according to the essential technology of the present application are still within the protection scope of the technical solutions of the present application.
