The organosilicon carbon fiber protective oil comprises the following components in parts by weight: 80-150 parts base silicone oil, 5-25 parts emulsifier, 3-15 parts rust and corrosion inhibitor, 0.1-10 parts thickener, 0.5-1.5 parts anti-aging agent, and 100-300 parts water. Traditional oils often focus on a single protective function (such as rust prevention or UV resistance), while this invention achieves a "three-in-one" protection of rust prevention, corrosion resistance, and aging resistance through molecular-level synergistic design, forming a dynamic self-healing barrier to resist long-term erosion in complex environments. Existing technologies often suffer from performance degradation due to emulsion stratification or component sedimentation.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of novel ink technology, specifically to an organosilicon carbon fiber protective oil agent. Background Technology

[0002] Carbon fiber, as a novel material with high strength, high modulus, and low density, is widely used in aerospace, automotive, sporting goods, and many other fields. However, carbon fiber is susceptible to various external factors during use, such as friction, oxidation, ultraviolet radiation, and chemical corrosion, which can lead to a decline in its surface properties and affect its service life and application performance.

[0003] Traditional methods for protecting carbon fibers mainly focus on surface coating and composite material preparation. While surface coating can improve the protective performance of carbon fibers to some extent, it suffers from problems such as poor coating adhesion, easy peeling, and lack of durability. Composite material preparation requires complex pretreatment and molding processes for carbon fibers, and it is difficult to achieve all-round protection for carbon fibers.

[0004] Existing protective oils have several shortcomings. On the one hand, some oils have limited protective performance, making it difficult to simultaneously meet multiple protective needs such as rust prevention, corrosion resistance, and aging resistance. On the other hand, some oils have poor stability, easily exhibiting stratification and sedimentation during storage and use, affecting their effectiveness. Furthermore, the preparation processes of some oils are complex and costly, making large-scale industrial application difficult and potentially causing environmental pollution, which does not meet the requirements of sustainable development.

[0005] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention aims to provide an organosilicon carbon fiber protective oil agent, its preparation method and application, so as to overcome the defects in the prior art, provide an efficient, stable, environmentally friendly and easily industrialized solution for the protection of carbon fibers, meet the protection needs of carbon fibers in different application scenarios, extend their service life, and ensure the quality and performance of related products. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing an organosilicon carbon fiber protective oil with excellent rust prevention, corrosion resistance, and aging resistance, overcoming the defects of traditional protection methods, meeting the protection needs of carbon fibers in complex environments, and extending their service life.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: an organosilicon carbon fiber protective oil agent, comprising the following components in parts by weight: 80-150 parts of base silicone oil, 5-25 parts of emulsifier, 3-15 parts of rust and corrosion inhibitor, 0.1-10 parts of thickener, 0.5-1.5 parts of anti-aging agent, and 100-300 parts of water;

[0008] The anti-aging agent has the structure shown in Formula 1:

[0009]

[0010] R1 in Formula 1 is selected from: methyl, methoxy, phenyl, tert-butyl.

[0011] Furthermore, the base silicone oil is selected from polyether-modified polysiloxane.

[0012] Furthermore, the emulsifier is selected from N,N-di(hydroxyethyl)cocoamide.

[0013] Furthermore, the rust and corrosion inhibitor is selected from dicyclohexylamine.

[0014] Furthermore, the thickener is selected from sodium carboxymethyl cellulose.

[0015] Furthermore, the anti-aging agent is selected from any one of the compounds shown in the following structures:

[0016]

[0017] A method for preparing an organosilicon carbon fiber protective oil agent includes the following steps:

[0018] S1. Add the water, anti-aging agent and thickener to the reaction system and stir until uniform and free of particles;

[0019] S2. Add the emulsifier and stir until homogeneous;

[0020] S3. Add the base silicone oil dropwise and stir until homogeneous;

[0021] S4. Add the rust and corrosion inhibitor, filter, and obtain an organosilicon carbon fiber protective oil.

[0022] Furthermore, S2 is performed at 40-50°C.

[0023] Furthermore, S1 is performed at 50-75°C.

[0024] An organosilicon carbon fiber protective oil agent is used in the field of carbon fiber protective ink.

[0025] An organosilicon carbon fiber protective oil can be used as a carbon fiber continuous and discontinuous fiber reinforced composite material.

[0026] The anti-aging agent described in this invention contains imino groups, alkyl chains, heteroconjugated aromatic ring structures, and silane bonds. These structures work together to enable the anti-aging agent to exert highly efficient protective performance in organosilicon carbon fiber protective oils, including anti-oxidation, anti-UV aging, and enhanced oil stability. Imino groups, as strong hydrogen bond donors, form a hydrogen bond network with polar groups on the carbon fiber surface, enhancing the adhesion of the oil to the fiber, reducing the risk of oil detachment, and ensuring long-term protection. Alkyl chains provide hydrophobic properties, forming a physical barrier that prevents water molecules and corrosive ions from contacting the carbon fiber surface, reducing the risk of hydrolysis and electrochemical corrosion. Heteroconjugated structures (such as phenyl or cyano groups in R1) form a conjugated π-electron system, effectively absorbing UV radiation (290-400nm) and converting it into heat energy dissipation, preventing UV-induced carbon fiber chain breakage. Silane bonds constitute the molecular skeleton, imparting high flexibility and thermal stability (temperature resistance up to 200℃ and above). In the oil, it is compatible with the base silicone oil, forming a continuous film layer that protects the carbon fiber from mechanical friction and thermal stress.

[0027] The organosilicon carbon fiber protective oil of this invention constructs a "three-dimensional protective network" through the synergistic effect of multiple components, including base silicone oil, emulsifier, rust and corrosion inhibitor, thickener, anti-aging agent, and water. The chemical synergy (intermolecular hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions form a continuous protective film to isolate moisture, corrosive ions, and ultraviolet radiation) and physical synergy (the emulsifier and thickener stabilize the emulsion structure and adjust viscosity to ensure uniform oil coverage) jointly overcome the limitations of traditional oils in terms of limited protective performance, poor stability, complex preparation processes, high costs, and environmental impact. Specifically, the base silicone oil provides flexibility and thermal stability as the matrix, and works synergistically with rust inhibitors, corrosion inhibitors, and anti-aging agents to form a physical barrier and chemical protective film; the emulsifier promotes uniform dispersion of the emulsion at 40-50℃; the rust inhibitor neutralizes the acidic environment and forms a hydrogen bond network with the imino groups of the anti-aging agent, enhancing adhesion; the thickener forms a gel network at 50-75℃ to prevent component sedimentation; the anti-aging agent, through its unique structure (as shown in Formula 1), in which the imino groups enhance the adhesion of carbon fibers, the alkyl chains provide a hydrophobic barrier to block moisture, the heteroconjugated aromatic ring structure absorbs 290-400nm ultraviolet light and converts it into heat energy, and the silane bonds ensure flexibility and compatibility with the base silicone oil, achieving high-efficiency protection with low dosage; water, as an environmentally friendly solvent, supports mild preparation (carried out in steps S1-S4 at 50-75℃) and adjusts the viscosity of the system. This synergistic effect simultaneously enhances protective performance (covering rust prevention, corrosion resistance, and anti-aging requirements, such as UV absorption), stability (emulsifiers and thickeners prevent stratification and sedimentation), process simplification (reduced energy consumption and complexity), cost advantages (low-volume design and environmentally friendly formulation), and environmental sustainability (water-based reduces volatile organic pollutants, and components are highly biodegradable), thereby extending the service life in carbon fiber protection applications.

[0028] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0029] 1. Comprehensive improvement in protective performance: Traditional oils often focus on a single protective function (such as rust prevention or UV protection), while this invention achieves "three-in-one" protection of rust prevention, corrosion resistance and aging resistance through molecular-level synergistic design, forming a dynamic self-healing barrier to resist long-term erosion in complex environments.

[0030] 2. Stability and process breakthrough: Existing technologies often suffer from performance degradation due to emulsion stratification or component sedimentation. This invention uses a mild water-based process to construct a uniform emulsion system, which can be stably stored without high temperature and high pressure, greatly reducing the threshold for industrialization.

[0031] 3. Balancing environmental protection and cost: Traditional solutions rely on high-cost or polluting components (such as organic solvents). This invention reduces the amount of key additives by precise compounding and reduces VOC emissions by using water as a carrier, thus taking into account both long-term performance and the needs of green production.

[0077] Performance testing:

[0078] Test sample: A carbon fiber sample coated with an organosilicon carbon fiber protective oil prepared in the examples and comparative examples, measuring 10cm × 10cm, with a coating thickness of 0.5mm.

[0079] 1. Rust prevention performance test: According to the ASTM B117 salt spray test standard, the test sample was placed in a salt spray chamber (5% NaCl solution, temperature 35℃), and the time (in hours) for rust to appear was recorded. The data are shown in Table 2.

[0080] 2. Corrosion resistance test: The immersion corrosion method was used. The test sample was immersed in 0.5 mol / L sulfuric acid solution at 25℃ for 168 hours, and the weight loss rate (%) of carbon fiber was measured. The data are shown in Table 2.

[0081] 3. Anti-aging performance test: The sample was placed in a UV aging chamber (UVA-340 lamp, irradiance 0.89W / m²). 2 The rust prevention performance retention rate (%) and corrosion resistance performance retention rate (%) were tested at a temperature of 50℃ and a relative humidity of 60% for 500 hours. The data are shown in Table 2.

[0082] Table 2.

[0083]

[0084] The sample from the example is significantly superior to all comparative examples, demonstrating the core advantage of the organosilicon carbon fiber protective oil agent of this invention: the three-dimensional protective network synergistically constructed by the components can maintain performance stability for a long time. Specifically, this is manifested in three key trends:

[0085] ① Clearly defined protective performance levels: The embodiments show a clear advantage in initial rust prevention, corrosion resistance, and anti-aging durability. The protective efficacy is comprehensively improved with the introduction of the anti-aging agent of this invention and the complete combination of components.

[0086] ②The decisive role of anti-aging agents: Any substitution (such as industrial antioxidants), structural modification or complete removal of the anti-aging agent of the present invention in the comparative examples resulted in a precipitous drop in protective performance, highlighting the irreplaceable role of this component in resisting ultraviolet aging and maintaining long-term protection.

[0087] ③ Component integrity is crucial: Insufficient use of key components such as base silicone oil or rust inhibitor in the comparative ratio can trigger a chain reaction of collapse of the synergistic protection network, especially causing the material's performance to deteriorate more rapidly after aging, confirming the necessity of the core design principles emphasized in the document: "mild process to form stable emulsion" and "multi-component compounding for synergistic effect".

[0088] In summary, this invention, through molecular design (such as the heteroconjugated aromatic ring light-absorbing groups of anti-aging agents) and precise formulation (such as the optimization of the content of rust and corrosion inhibitors), forms a dynamic self-healing protective layer on the surface of carbon fibers, fundamentally blocking the penetration path of environmental corrosive factors, thereby achieving a leapfrog improvement in performance.

[0089] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
