Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of hydrophobic aluminum foil, and particularly relates to a super-hydrophobic aluminum foil and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] The super-hydrophobic aluminum foil has important application value in wax product drying machines and sewage treatment equipment due to its unique surface characteristics. The light foil treated on the surface can improve the heat exchange performance and service life of the machine. In the prior art, the super-hydrophobic aluminum foil is prepared by a wet chemical etching method, an electrochemical method, a coating method and the like. The wet chemical etching method usually uses hydrochloric acid solution or sodium hydroxide solution for etching. The reaction is relatively violent and difficult to control, and the penetration phenomenon is prone to occur at the defect site. The electrochemical method is to perform an electrochemical anodic oxidation reaction on the surface of the aluminum foil. The super-hydrophobic surface can be prepared only after a sandblasting, plasma and other pretreatment processes. The process is relatively complex and the energy consumption is high. The coating method has the advantages of not damaging the substrate, simple process and high efficiency, and becomes the main technical means for producing the super-hydrophobic aluminum foil. However, the light foil surface is relatively smooth. There are often problems of weak bonding force between the super-hydrophobic coating and the light foil and poor durability of the coating, which leads to the destruction or peeling of the super-hydrophobic coating and the loss of super-hydrophobicity.

[0003] Therefore, how to prepare a super-hydrophobic aluminum foil with good durability and long-lasting hydrophobicity is a technical problem to be solved at present. SUMMARY

[0004] The application aims to provide a super-hydrophobic aluminum foil and a preparation method thereof. First, a polydopamine layer is formed on the surface of the aluminum light foil by using dopamine self-polymerization. Then, the porous substrate particles containing thiol groups are loaded onto the surface of the polydopamine layer through Michael addition reaction to form a substrate particle layer. Finally, the amino group in the substrate particle layer and the epoxy group in the modified silicone resin are subjected to ring-opening reaction to form a modified silicone resin layer after curing. The super-hydrophobic aluminum foil with good durability is obtained through the compounding of multiple functional layers, and the problems in the background art are solved.

[0005] The object of the application can be achieved by the following technical solutions. A preparation method of a super-hydrophobic aluminum foil, comprising the following steps: Step S1, immerse the aluminum light foil in a dopamine solution and slowly shake overnight. After taking out, wash with deionized water and ethanol alternately, and dry in a 40℃ drying oven to obtain a surface-modified aluminum foil with a polydopamine layer; Step S2, the substrate particles are added into a trihydroxy amino methane aqueous solution with pH of 10 and ultrasonically dispersed for 10-15 min, then the surface modified aluminum foil is added, and the reaction is slowly stirred at room temperature for 6 h. Under the alkaline condition, the mercapto groups on the surface of the substrate particles and the quinone groups in the surface modified aluminum foil undergo Michael addition reaction to form stable C-S covalent bond, thereby obtaining the substrate loaded aluminum foil; Step S3, the substrate loaded aluminum foil is soaked in a modified silicone resin solution at 55-65℃ for 4-5 h, then taken out and washed with ethanol, and dried and cured at 165-170℃ for 2 min to obtain the super-hydrophobic aluminum foil. During the soaking process, the amino groups in the substrate loaded aluminum foil and the epoxy groups in the modified silicone resin undergo ring-opening reaction, thereby grafting the modified silicone resin onto the surface of the substrate loaded aluminum foil.

[0006] Further, the concentration of the dopamine solution is 1 mg / mL, and the solvent is a Tris-HCl buffer solution with pH of 7-9 and concentration of 10 mM.

[0007] Further, the ratio of the amount of the substrate particles to the amount of the trihydroxy amino methane aqueous solution is 4 g:200 mL.

After the reaction is completed, the lower solid particles are collected by centrifugal separation, washed with an ethanol solution and deionized water, and dried in a vacuum drying oven at 120℃ for 12 h to obtain the substrate particles. The dodecyl trimethyl ammonium chloride is used as a template agent, the sodium salicylate is used as an auxiliary agent, and the hydrothermal reaction is carried out under weak alkaline condition to obtain nano-silica particles with porous structure. Then, the KH590 and KH550 are added to co-condense with the nano-silica particles to obtain the substrate particles containing mercapto groups and amino groups on the surface.

[0009] Further, the ratio of the amount of the dodecyl trimethyl ammonium chloride, triethanolamine, sodium salicylate, deionized water, tetraethyl orthosilicate, KH590 and KH550 is 1 g:1.4 g:0.2-0.3 g:50 mL:8-9 g:2 g:2 g.

[0010] Further, the modified silicone resin solution is a mixture of modified silicone resin and ethyl acetate with a ratio of 8-12 g / 100 mL.

[0011] Further, the modified silicone resin is prepared by the following steps: Step A1, phenyltriethoxysilane, octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane, tetramethylcyclotetrasiloxane and methyltriethoxysilane are added into toluene and stirred to mix uniformly, then a solid acid catalyst is added while heating to 65-75℃, then a 90wt% ethanol aqueous solution is slowly added dropwise, then hexamethyldisiloxane and tetramethyl disiloxane are added, and the reaction is continued for 2h, then the solid acid catalyst is filtered out, and the solvent and unreacted low-boiling substances are removed by distillation under reduced pressure to obtain an active hydrogen phenyl silicone resin; phenyltriethoxysilane, octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane, tetramethylcyclotetrasiloxane and methyltriethoxysilane undergo hydrolysis and polycondensation under the action of a solid acid catalyst and heating, and after the reaction, hexamethyldisiloxane and tetramethyl disiloxane are used for end-capping to obtain an active hydrogen phenyl silicone resin containing a silicon-hydrogen bond; Step A2, 120g of the active hydrogen phenyl silicone resin, 8-10g of 1-hexadecene, 4-4.5g of allyl glycidyl ether and 10mg of chloroplatinic acid are added into 35mL of isopropyl alcohol, heated to 80℃ under nitrogen protection and stirred to react for 3-5h, and then the solvent and unreacted low-boiling substances are removed by distillation under reduced pressure to obtain a modified silicone resin; the silicon-hydrogen bond in the active hydrogen phenyl silicone resin reacts with the double bonds of 1-hexadecene and allyl glycidyl ether to add long carbon chain alkyl and epoxy groups to the silicone resin.

[0012] Further, the use amount ratio of the phenyltriethoxysilane, octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane, tetramethylcyclotetrasiloxane, methyltriethoxysilane, toluene, solid acid catalyst, ethanol aqueous solution, hexamethyldisiloxane and tetramethyl disiloxane is 60g: 35-40g: 15-20g: 8-10g: 120mL: 4-5g: 40mL: 3.5-4.5g: 2.5-3g; and the solid acid catalyst is a perfluorosulfonic acid resin.

[0013] Further, the use amount ratio of the active hydrogen phenyl silicone resin, 1-hexadecene, allyl glycidyl ether, chloroplatinic acid and isopropyl alcohol is 120g: 8-10g: 4-4.5g: 10mg: 35mL.

[0014] An ultrahydrophobic aluminum foil prepared by the above preparation method, sequentially comprising a polydopamine layer, a substrate particle layer and a modified silicone resin layer.

[0015] Beneficial effects: The prepared substrate particles not only have a porous structure, but also contain abundant sulfydryl and amino groups, and the substrate particles can play a dual function of improving the hydrophobicity and durability of the super-hydrophobic aluminum foil: on the one hand, the substrate particles can improve the roughness of the surface after being loaded to the polydopamine layer, and can improve the hydrophobicity of the super-hydrophobic aluminum foil as a substrate; on the other hand, the substrate particles are connected with the polydopamine layer through the sulfydryl, and are connected with the modified silicone layer through the amino group, and the substrate particles act as a bridge for strongly connecting the two functional layers, and the porous structure is also beneficial to the physical embedding of the modified silicone, and the adhesion between the modified silicone layer and the polydopamine layer is effectively improved, thereby the durability of the super-hydrophobic aluminum foil is effectively improved; The prepared modified silicone contains long-chain alkyl, phenyl and epoxy groups, the long-chain alkyl as the main part of the modified silicone plays a main influence on the hydrophobicity of the super-hydrophobic aluminum foil; the phenyl can improve the wear resistance of the modified silicone layer through π-π stacking, and the short-chain phenyl interacts with the long-chain alkyl to form a cross-linked network, which constitutes a more fine micro-nano structure, and further improves the hydrophobicity of the aluminum foil. The present application improves the adhesion between the subsequent material and the aluminum foil by immersing the aluminum foil in the dopamine solution to form a polydopamine layer on the surface of the aluminum foil, then loads the porous substrate particles on the surface of the polydopamine layer, and finally grafts the modified silicone on the surface of the substrate particles to form a modified silicone hydrophobic layer, thereby a multi-layer super-hydrophobic aluminum foil with excellent hydrophobicity and durability is obtained.
