Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of organosilicon flame retardants, and more specifically to an organosilicon resin flame retardant and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Epoxy resins are widely used in electronic packaging, composite materials, coatings, and adhesives due to their excellent mechanical properties, adhesion, chemical resistance, and electrical insulation. However, epoxy resins are highly flammable and pose a significant fire hazard, making flame-retardant modification a critical requirement for safe material applications.

[0003] Traditional physically blended flame retardants, such as halogenated compounds, inorganic hydroxides, or phosphorus-based flame retardants, have inherent compatibility defects with epoxy resin matrices. From a molecular structure and chemical property perspective, these flame retardants differ significantly from epoxy resins in polarity and intermolecular forces, making it difficult for them to form a stable homogeneous system. Phase separation easily occurs during the blending process. This phase separation phenomenon is more pronounced when the material is used for a long time or exposed to high temperatures, causing the flame retardant to gradually migrate and precipitate from the epoxy resin matrix, forming a "frosting" phenomenon on the surface of the product.

[0004] Currently, most flame retardants rely on a single flame-retardant mechanism. For example, halogenated flame retardants mainly inhibit combustion reactions through gas-phase flame retardancy, while phosphorus-based flame retardants primarily rely on char formation to create a protective layer on the material surface. However, the flame-retardant efficiency of a single mechanism is limited and cannot meet increasingly stringent flame-retardant standards, such as UL94 V-0. To meet these high standards, it is necessary to continue increasing the amount of flame retardant added, which creates a vicious cycle: while high addition amounts improve flame-retardant performance to some extent, they further exacerbate the loss of mechanical properties and increase processing difficulty.

[0005] Invention patent CN112679803B discloses a graphene nanosheet-loaded tin flame retardant, a flame-retardant epoxy resin, and a method for preparing the two. The graphene nanosheet-loaded tin flame retardant is mixed with hexa(p-hydroxymethylphenoxy)-cyclotriphosphazene and added to the epoxy resin as a composite flame retardant, which can significantly improve the flame retardant effect of the epoxy resin. However, graphene itself is prone to agglomeration, which may have an adverse effect on the mechanical properties of the epoxy resin.

[0006] Therefore, providing a flame retardant with good flame retardant properties while avoiding adverse effects on the mechanical properties of epoxy resin is an important problem that urgently needs to be solved in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, an organosilicon resin flame retardant and its preparation method are provided. Specifically, the technical solution of this invention includes the following:

[0016] Furthermore, the conditions for the ultrasonic treatment include a processing power of 500-600W and a processing time of 2-3 hours.

[0017] Furthermore, the weight ratio of the flake molybdenum disulfide to the thiol phosphate is 1:10~11.

[0018] Furthermore, the reaction conditions for the flake molybdenum disulfide and the thiolized phosphate ester include a reaction temperature of 23-25°C and a reaction time of 24-28 h.

[0019] Furthermore, the preparation method of the modified organosilicon includes the following steps:

[0020] 1,3,5,7-Tetramethylcyclotetrasiloxane, allyl glycidyl ether and acryloyl chloride were mixed to obtain a mixture, and then chloroplatinic acid and tri-n-butylamine were added and reacted to obtain an intermediate.

[0021] The modified organosilicon was prepared by reacting an intermediate, a polyetheramine, a surfactant, and sodium hydroxide.

[0022] Further, the weight ratio of 1,3,5,7-tetramethylcyclotetrasiloxane, allyl glycidyl ether, acryloyl chloride, chloroplatinic acid and tri-n-butylamine is 10:9.7~10.3:7.2~7.6:0.003~0.004:0.001~0.0015.

[0023] Furthermore, the reaction conditions for the mixture, chloroplatinic acid, and tri-n-butylamine include a reaction temperature of 65-85°C and a reaction time of 3-5 hours.

[0024] Furthermore, the polyetheramine is polyetheramine D230.

[0025] Furthermore, the surfactant is sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate.

[0026] Further, the weight ratio of the intermediate, polyetheramine, surfactant and sodium hydroxide is 1:1.3~1.5:0.06~0.08:0.08~0.1.

[0027] Furthermore, the reaction conditions for the intermediate, polyetheramine, surfactant and sodium hydroxide include a reaction temperature of 0~5℃ and a reaction time of 12~16h.

[0028] Furthermore, the weight ratio of the modified molybdenum disulfide, modified organosilicon, and lithium hydroxide is 2~3:3~5:0.01~0.02.

[0029] Furthermore, the reaction conditions for the modified molybdenum disulfide, modified organosilicon, and lithium hydroxide include a reaction temperature of 40-50°C and a reaction time of 26-36 h.

[0030] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0031] (1) In this invention, the Si-H bond in 1,3,5,7-tetramethylcyclotetrasiloxane undergoes hydrosilylation reaction with the olefins in allyl glycidyl ether and acryloyl chloride to obtain an intermediate containing epoxy and acryl chloride groups; the amino group of polyetheramine D230 reacts with the acryl chloride of the intermediate to obtain modified organosilicon; after the reaction of thiourea and tri(2-chloroethyl) phosphate, it is hydrolyzed in an alkaline environment to obtain mercapto-containing thiolated phosphate; molybdenum disulfide is ultrasonically exfoliated to obtain flake molybdenum disulfide; the mercapto group of the thiolated phosphate coordinates with the sulfur defect site on the surface of the flake molybdenum disulfide to modify the flake molybdenum disulfide to obtain modified molybdenum disulfide; the mercapto group of the modified molybdenum disulfide reacts with the epoxy group of the modified organosilicon to prepare an organosilicon resin flame retardant.

[0032] (2) The organosilicon resin flame retardant prepared by the present invention contains multiple elements such as phosphorus, sulfur, nitrogen and silicon, and has a good flame retardant effect during combustion. Among them, phosphorus, nitrogen and silicon elements can synergistically promote the formation of expanded char layer during combustion, and isolate heat and oxygen through condensed phase flame retardancy. Phosphorus, nitrogen and sulfur elements interrupt the combustion chain reaction through gas phase flame retardancy. In addition, modified molybdenum disulfide is uniformly dispersed in epoxy resin during processing, and can be intercalated into the char layer during combustion, further enhancing the physical barrier properties of the char layer. Through the synergistic effect of the above multiple elements, the flame retardant efficiency of flame retardant epoxy resin is effectively improved.

[0033] (3) The organosilicon flame retardant prepared by the present invention contains abundant active groups, which can participate in the curing reaction of epoxy resin. It can be embedded into the cross-linking network of epoxy resin through chemical bonding and become part of its network structure, effectively improving the compatibility between organosilicon flame retardant and epoxy resin groups and enhancing the interfacial bonding strength. Good compatibility and interfacial bonding can avoid the stress concentration problem caused by organosilicon flame retardant as a foreign phase, thereby reliably maintaining the mechanical properties of epoxy resin.

[0122] Test Example 1: Combustion Performance Test

[0123] The limiting oxygen index of the flame-retardant epoxy resins prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-5 was measured using a limiting oxygen index meter according to ASTM D2863.

[0124] The flammability ratings of the flame-retardant epoxy resins prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-5 were tested according to the method in GB / T 2408-2008; the test results are shown in Table 1.

[0125] Table 1. Flame retardancy test

[0126]

[0127] The data in Table 1 show that the flame-retardant epoxy resins prepared by the organosilicon flame retardants in Examples 1-5 of this invention have good flame-retardant properties, while the flame-retardant epoxy resins prepared by Comparative Examples 1-5 all show varying degrees of performance degradation. The decreased flame retardant performance of Comparative Example 1 may be due to the use of only allyl glycidyl ether to modify 1,3,5,7-tetramethylcyclotetrasiloxane without the use of acryloyl chloride. This reduces the reaction sites of the silicone resin flame retardant, resulting in weaker bonding with the epoxy resin matrix and uneven dispersion within the matrix, ultimately leading to lower flame retardant performance. The decreased flame retardant performance of Comparative Example 2 may also be due to the absence of allyl glycidyl ether modification of 1,3,5,7-tetramethylcyclotetrasiloxane. The modified silicone cannot bind with the modified molybdenum disulfide, causing the silicone resin flame retardant to agglomerate, thus affecting the flame retardant performance of the epoxy resin. The decreased performance of Comparative Example 3 may be due to the direct application of 1,3,5,7-tetramethylcyclotetrasiloxane and molybdenum disulfide to the epoxy resin. Physical mixing of the matrix makes it difficult to produce a synergistic flame-retardant effect, thus affecting the flame-retardant performance of the epoxy resin. The decreased flame-retardant performance of Comparative Example 4 may be due to the direct physical mixing of 1,3,5,7-tetramethylcyclotetrasiloxane, molybdenum disulfide, and tri(2-chloroethyl) phosphate with the epoxy resin matrix. Although tri(2-chloroethyl) phosphate can provide gas-phase flame retardancy, the unmodified 1,3,5,7-tetramethylcyclotetrasiloxane and molybdenum disulfide have poor dispersibility and low char formation efficiency, ultimately affecting the flame-retardant performance of the epoxy resin. The decreased flame-retardant performance of Comparative Example 5 may be due to the use of only modified organosilicon as a flame retardant, lacking molybdenum disulfide and tri(2-chloroethyl) phosphate, which fails to form a synergistic flame-retardant effect, thus affecting the flame-retardant performance of the epoxy resin.

[0128] Test Example 2: Mechanical Property Testing

[0129] Tensile tests were conducted on the flame-retardant epoxy resins prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-5 using a UTM2203 tensile testing machine, with a loading speed of 2 mm / min. Bending tests were conducted on the flame-retardant epoxy resins prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-5 using a HUALONG WDW-5C electronic universal testing machine. The test results are shown in Table 2.

[0130] Table 2. Mechanical property testing

[0131]

[0132] The data in Table 2 show that the flame-retardant epoxy resins prepared by the organosilicon flame retardants in Examples 1-5 of this invention have good mechanical properties, while the mechanical properties of the flame-retardant epoxy resins prepared by Comparative Examples 1-5 all decreased to varying degrees. A comparison of Comparative Examples 1-2 with Example 5 reveals that dual modification of 1,3,5,7-tetramethylcyclotetrasiloxane using allyl glycidyl ether and acryloyl chloride enhances its bonding ability with modified molybdenum disulfide and epoxy resin. Furthermore, the introduction of polyetheramine enhances its compatibility and reactivity with epoxy resin groups. The decreased mechanical properties of Comparative Example 3 may be due to the agglomeration of unmodified molybdenum disulfide, and the lack of suitable reactive groups on the unmodified 1,3,5,7-tetramethylcyclotetrasiloxane leading to phase separation, thus affecting the mechanical properties of the flame-retardant epoxy resin. The decreased mechanical properties of Comparative Example 4 may be due to weak interfacial bonding resulting from only physical mixing of the unmodified components, affecting the mechanical properties of the flame-retardant epoxy resin. The decreased mechanical properties of Comparative Example 5 may be due to the use of only modified organosilicon, lacking the synergistic reinforcing effect of modified molybdenum disulfide.
