Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of new materials technology, and in particular to an anhydrous ethanol-triggered rapid debonding aqueous adhesive and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Polyacrylate adhesives, with their advantages of low cost, simple synthesis process, and excellent bonding and aging resistance, are widely used in packaging, labeling, and the electronics and information industry. Today, these fields not only require adhesives with good bonding strength but also demand rapid debonding. In packaging scenarios requiring temporary fixation or easy opening, such as food and pharmaceutical packaging, quick-release adhesives facilitate consumer access. For applications requiring frequent label changes or rapid label removal under specific conditions, such as logistics labels and promotional labels, quick-release adhesives prevent label residue, preserving the appearance and subsequent use of the product. In the production and assembly of electronic components, adhesives are sometimes used for temporary fixation or auxiliary processing, followed by rapid debonding for subsequent testing, repair, or disassembly. For example, in chip packaging and circuit board assembly, quick-release adhesives improve production efficiency and product repairability.

[0003] Currently, most easy-peel polyacrylate adhesives are solvent-based and typically require the addition of crosslinking agents to improve their holding power and peel strength. Solvent-based adhesives have high organic solvent content, posing safety hazards during production, use, and storage, and causing serious environmental pollution. With increasing environmental awareness, the environmental performance of adhesives is receiving more and more attention, making the development of easy-peel water-based polyacrylate adhesives essential. Emulsion-type acrylic adhesives use water as a dispersion medium, are easy to handle, and are environmentally friendly, but their bond strength and water resistance are relatively poor.

[0004] Therefore, it is of great significance to provide a water-based, non-chemically crosslinked polyacrylate adhesive with high bonding strength, good water resistance, environmental friendliness, and rapid debonding after contact with anhydrous ethanol. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an anhydrous ethanol-triggered rapid debonding aqueous adhesive and its preparation method, so as to solve the problems existing in the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following solution:

[0007] This invention provides an anhydrous ethanol-triggered debonding aqueous adhesive, the raw materials comprising the following raw material components in the indicated mass ratios:

[0008] The mass ratio of short-chain alkyl acrylate, long-chain alkyl acrylate, acrylic acid, reactive anionic emulsifier, initiator and water is (10~50):(2~20):(1~10):(1~10):(0.05~1.0):100.

[0009] As a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the mass ratio of the short-chain alkyl acrylate, long-chain alkyl acrylate, acrylic acid, reactive anionic emulsifier, initiator and water is (20~40):(5~15):(2~8):(2~8):(0.2~0.8):100.

[0010] As a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the molecular formula of the short-chain alkyl acrylate is CH2=CHCOO(CH2). n CH3 or CH2=C(CH3)COO(CH2) n CH3, where n = 1~3.

[0011] As a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the short-chain alkyl acrylate is one or more selected from ethyl acrylate, ethyl methacrylate, butyl acrylate, and butyl methacrylate. More preferably, it is butyl acrylate.

[0012] As a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the molecular formula of the long-chain alkyl acrylate is CH2=CHCOO(CH2). n CH3 or CH2=C(CH3)COO(CH2) n CH3, where n = 5~15.

[0013] As a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the long-chain alkyl acrylate is one or more selected from hexyl acrylate, hexyl methacrylate, octyl acrylate, octyl methacrylate, dodecyl acrylate, dodecyl methacrylate, tetradecyl acrylate, and tetradecyl methacrylate. More preferably, it is dodecyl methacrylate.

[0014] As a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the initiator comprises one or more of ammonium persulfate, potassium persulfate, and sodium persulfate. Potassium persulfate is more preferred.

[0015] As a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the reactive anionic emulsifier is selected from one or more of allyl alcohol polyoxyethylene ether sulfate, alkenyl sulfonate, and allyl succinate alkyl ester sulfonate. More preferably, it is allyloxy alcohol polyoxyethylene ether sulfate, and even more preferably, it is allyloxynonylphenoxypropanol polyoxyethylene ether-10 ammonium sulfate (SR-10).

[0016] The waterborne adhesive with anhydrous ethanol-triggered debonding provided by this invention has a glass transition temperature of -40 to -10°C.

[0017] The waterborne polyacrylate adhesive of the present invention is a hydrophobic associative polymer obtained by microemulsion polymerization of short-chain alkyl acrylate, long-chain alkyl acrylate and acrylic acid in water with peroxide as an initiator in the presence of a reactive anionic emulsifier. It has low viscosity, high bonding strength and good water resistance, and can be rapidly debonded within 20 to 30 seconds when in contact with anhydrous ethanol.

[0018] The present invention also provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned anhydrous ethanol-triggered debonding aqueous adhesive, comprising the following steps:

[0019] The raw materials are microemulsion polymerized according to the mass ratio to obtain the anhydrous ethanol-triggered debonding aqueous adhesive.

[0020] As a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, during the preparation process, water, a reactive anionic emulsifier, short-chain alkyl acrylate, long-chain alkyl acrylate, and acrylic acid are first mixed to obtain a mixture; then an initiator solution is added to the mixture to react and obtain an anhydrous ethanol-triggered debonding aqueous adhesive.

[0021] As a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the preparation method includes the following steps:

[0022] S1: Add reactive anionic emulsifier SR-10 to deionized water and magnetically stir at 10-30℃ for 20-60 min at a stirring speed of 100-500 rpm to obtain solution A;

[0023] S2: Add dodecyl methacrylate and butyl acrylate to solution A, and magnetically stir at 10 ~ 30℃ for 2 ~ 6 h. Then add acrylic acid and magnetically stir for 0.5 ~ 2 h until completely dissolved. The stirring speed is 100 ~ 500 rpm to obtain solution B.

[0024] S3: Add the initiator to deionized water and stir magnetically at 10~30℃ for 10~30 min at a stirring speed of 100~500 rpm to obtain solution C;

[0025] S4: Add 5% solution B and 5% solution C to a three-necked flask, purge with nitrogen to remove oxygen, and stir at 60-80℃ for 10-30 min at a stirring speed of 100-500 rpm.

[0026] S5: Slowly add the remaining solution B and solution C dropwise into the three-necked flask, and stir at 60 ~ 80℃ for 30 ~ 60 min at a stirring speed of 100 ~ 500 rpm, so that solution B and solution C are added dropwise at the same time to obtain solution D;

[0027] S6: Stir solution D at 60-90℃ for 20-60 min at a stirring speed of 50-300 rpm;

[0028] S7: Add NaHCO3 to solution D and adjust the pH value to 7.0-8.0 to obtain an aqueous polyacrylate adhesive, i.e., an aqueous adhesive that triggers debonding with anhydrous ethanol.

[0029] The present invention further provides the application of the above-mentioned anhydrous ethanol-triggered debonding aqueous adhesive in the fields of packaging, labeling or electronic information industry.

[0030] The water-based polyacrylate adhesive of this invention has low viscosity (< 60 mPa·s), good bonding strength and water resistance, and can quickly de-adhere within 20 to 30 seconds when in contact with anhydrous ethanol, leaving no residue. It is particularly suitable for packaging, labeling, and electronic information industries that require rapid de-adhesion.

[0031] The water-based polyacrylate adhesive provided by this invention is a water-based product that is free of benzene, halogen, formaldehyde, ammonia, and nonylphenol, making it environmentally friendly. Its preparation method is simple and easy to operate, and the adhesive itself has low viscosity, making it easy to apply and coat in subsequent use, resulting in high overall ease of use.

[0032] The waterborne polyacrylate adhesive of this invention is prepared by microemulsion polymerization of hydrophobic long-chain alkyl esters and short-chain alkyl esters of acrylic acid, functional monomer acrylic acid, and reactive emulsifier. By constructing hydrophobic associative microdomains, high adhesive strength and good water resistance are achieved. The hydrophobic long-chain alkyl side groups aggregate to form hydrophobic associative microdomains, which play a role in interfacial drainage at the adhesive-substrate interface. This rapidly breaks down the hydration layer between the waterborne polyacrylate adhesive and the substrate, promoting non-covalent interactions (such as hydrogen bonding, coordination, electrostatics, and dipole interactions) between the acrylic segments and the substrate surface. Simultaneously, the hydrophobic associative microdomains can also act as physical crosslinking points, improving the cohesive strength of the film after drying. Furthermore, the reactive emulsifier molecules are chemically bonded to the polyacrylate macromolecular chains, avoiding problems such as slow film formation, poor water resistance, and insufficient adhesion caused by the desorption of small emulsifier molecules from the polymer latex particle surface.

[0033] The waterborne polyacrylate adhesive of this invention has a non-covalent cross-linked structure with hydrophobic associating microdomains acting as physical cross-linking points. The strong hydrogen bonding between the ester and carboxyl groups on the polyacrylate copolymer molecular chain and anhydrous ethanol allows the anhydrous ethanol to rapidly diffuse to the adhesive-substrate interface, disrupting the non-covalent interactions between them and causing the adhesive film to quickly detach from the substrate surface. However, the hydrophobic associating microdomains in the adhesive film are not destroyed by the anhydrous ethanol, ensuring the integrity of the adhesive film during peeling. Based on this characteristic, when debonding is required, only a small amount of anhydrous ethanol needs to be added to the adhesive-substrate interface, and rapid debonding can be achieved after standing for 20-30 seconds, leaving no adhesive residue on the substrate surface after debonding.

[0034] The present invention discloses the following technical effects:

[0035] This invention utilizes a precise combination of three monomers—long-chain alkyl acrylate, short-chain alkyl acrylate, and acrylic acid—along with a reactive emulsifier, to prepare a non-covalently crosslinked waterborne polyacrylate adhesive via microemulsion polymerization. This adhesive, as a benzene-free, halogen-free, and formaldehyde-free water-based product, uses water as the dispersion medium, eliminating organic solvent pollution and meeting the requirements of green development. The reactive emulsifier chemically bonds to the macromolecular chain, avoiding problems such as slow film formation, poor water resistance, and insufficient adhesion caused by emulsifier desorption. The hydrophobic association of the long-chain alkyl side groups of the polyacrylate copolymer endows the adhesive with high cohesive strength and water resistance. The strong non-covalent interaction between the carboxyl groups on the molecular chain and the substrate surface gives the adhesive excellent bonding properties. Simultaneously, the strong hydrogen bonding between the ester and carboxyl groups in the molecular chain and anhydrous ethanol allows anhydrous ethanol to trigger interfacial debonding within 20-30 seconds, and the hydrophobic association ensures the integrity of the adhesive film after peeling, leaving no residue. The water-based polyacrylate adhesive of this invention has the characteristics of low viscosity, easy operation, and good storage stability, which meets the practical application requirements of packaging, electronics and other fields.

[0095] Comparative Example 1

[0096] The amount of reactive anionic emulsifier SR-10 in Example 1 was reduced to 0.6 g, while the amount of other components added and the experimental operation steps were exactly the same as in Example 1. In the later stage of the polymerization reaction, the emulsion became unstable and severe aggregation occurred, making it impossible to successfully prepare waterborne polyacrylate adhesive.

[0097] The preparation steps are as follows:

[0098] (1) Add 0.6 g of reactive anionic emulsifier SR-10 to 25 g of deionized water and stir magnetically at 25°C for 30 min at a stirring speed of 200 rpm to obtain solution A; add 3.0 g of dodecyl methacrylate and 10 g of butyl acrylate to solution A and stir magnetically at 25°C for 3 h, then add 2.0 g of acrylic acid and stir magnetically for 1 h until completely dissolved to obtain solution B at a stirring speed of 200 rpm;

[0099] (2) Add 100 mg of potassium persulfate to 15 g of deionized water and stir magnetically at 25 °C for 10 min to obtain solution C. The stirring speed is 200 rpm.

[0100] (3) Add 5% solution B and 5% solution C to a three-necked flask, purge with nitrogen to remove oxygen, and stir at 70°C for 30 min at a stirring speed of 200 rpm; slowly add the remaining solution B and solution C dropwise to the three-necked flask, and stir at 70°C for 60 min at a stirring speed of 200 rpm, so that solution B and solution C are added at the same time to obtain solution D;

[0101] (4) Stir the solution D at 80°C at a stirring speed of 150 rpm. After 10 min, the emulsion becomes unstable and severely aggregates, making it impossible to obtain water-based polyacrylate adhesive.

[0102] Comparative Example 2

[0103] The amount of dodecyl methacrylate in Example 1 was reduced to 1.8 g, while the amounts of other components and the experimental procedures were exactly the same as in Example 1. The prepared waterborne polyacrylate adhesive exhibited a 180° peel strength of 1.54 N / 25 mm with the test steel plate, and a water whitening rating of 4, indicating poor water resistance. The adhesive-steel plate interface debonded after 60 seconds of contact with anhydrous ethanol, leaving some adhesive residue on the test steel plate.

[0104] The preparation steps are as follows:

[0105] (1) Add 2.0 g of reactive anionic emulsifier SR-10 to 25 g of deionized water and stir magnetically at 25°C for 30 min at a stirring speed of 200 rpm to obtain solution A; add 1.8 g of dodecyl methacrylate and 10 g of butyl acrylate to solution A and stir magnetically at 25°C for 3 h, then add 2.0 g of acrylic acid and stir magnetically for 1 h until completely dissolved to obtain solution B at a stirring speed of 200 rpm;

[0106] (2) Add 100 mg of potassium persulfate to 15 g of deionized water and stir magnetically at 25 °C for 10 min to obtain solution C. The stirring speed is 200 rpm.

[0107] (3) Add 5% solution B and 5% solution C to a three-necked flask, purge with nitrogen to remove oxygen, and stir at 70°C for 30 min at a stirring speed of 200 rpm; slowly add the remaining solution B and solution C dropwise to the three-necked flask, and stir at 70°C for 60 min at a stirring speed of 200 rpm, so that solution B and solution C are added at the same time to obtain solution D;

[0108] (4) Stir solution D at 80°C for 60 min at a stirring speed of 150 rpm; finally, add NaHCO3 to solution D and adjust the pH value to 7.0 to obtain water-based polyacrylate adhesive.

[0109] Comparative Example 3

[0110] The reactive nonionic emulsifier ER-30 from Idico (Japan) was used instead of the reactive anionic emulsifier SR-10 in Example 1. The amounts of other components and the experimental procedures were exactly the same as in Example 1. The prepared waterborne polyacrylate adhesive showed a 180° peel strength of only 0.65 N / 25 mm to the test steel plate, with a water whitening rating of level 4, indicating poor water resistance. The adhesive-steel plate interface detached within 30 seconds of contact with anhydrous ethanol, but some adhesive residue remained on the test steel plate.

[0111] The preparation steps are as follows:

[0112] (1) Add 2.0 g of reactive nonionic emulsifier ER-30 to 25 g of deionized water and stir magnetically at 25°C for 30 min at a stirring speed of 200 rpm to obtain solution A; add 3.0 g of dodecyl methacrylate and 10 g of butyl acrylate to solution A and stir magnetically at 25°C for 3 h, then add 2.0 g of acrylic acid and stir magnetically for 1 h until completely dissolved to obtain solution B at a stirring speed of 200 rpm;

[0113] (2) Add 100 mg of potassium persulfate to 15 g of deionized water and stir magnetically at 25 °C for 10 min to obtain solution C. The stirring speed is 200 rpm.

[0114] (3) Add 5% solution B and 5% solution C to a three-necked flask, purge with nitrogen to remove oxygen, and stir at 70°C for 30 min at a stirring speed of 200 rpm; slowly add the remaining solution B and solution C dropwise to the three-necked flask, and stir at 70°C for 60 min at a stirring speed of 200 rpm, so that solution B and solution C are added at the same time to obtain solution D;

[0115] (4) Stir solution D at 80°C for 60 min at a stirring speed of 150 rpm; finally, add NaHCO3 to solution D and adjust the pH value to 7.0 to obtain water-based polyacrylate adhesive.

[0116] Comparative Example 4

[0117] Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), a non-reactive anionic emulsifier, was used instead of the reactive anionic emulsifier SR-10 in Example 1. The amounts of other components added and the experimental procedures were exactly the same as in Example 1. The prepared waterborne polyacrylate adhesive exhibited a 180° peel strength of only 1.32 N / 25 mm from the test steel plate, with a water whitening rating of level 5, indicating very poor water resistance. The adhesive detached from the steel plate interface within 30 seconds of contact with anhydrous ethanol, but adhesive residue remained on the test steel plate.

[0118] The preparation steps are as follows:

[0119] (1) Add 2.0 g of non-reactive anionic emulsifier sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) to 25 g of deionized water and stir magnetically at 25 °C for 30 min at a stirring speed of 200 rpm to obtain solution A; add 3.0 g of dodecyl methacrylate and 10 g of butyl acrylate to solution A and stir magnetically at 25 °C for 3 h, then add 2.0 g of acrylic acid and stir magnetically for 1 h until completely dissolved to obtain solution B at a stirring speed of 200 rpm;

[0120] (2) Add 100 mg of potassium persulfate to 15 g of deionized water and stir magnetically at 25 °C for 10 min to obtain solution C. The stirring speed is 200 rpm.

[0121] (3) Add 5% solution B and 5% solution C to a three-necked flask, purge with nitrogen to remove oxygen, and stir at 70°C for 30 min at a stirring speed of 200 rpm; slowly add the remaining solution B and solution C dropwise to the three-necked flask, and stir at 70°C for 60 min at a stirring speed of 200 rpm, so that solution B and solution C are added at the same time to obtain solution D;

[0122] (4) Stir solution D at 80°C for 60 min at a stirring speed of 150 rpm; finally, add NaHCO3 to solution D and adjust the pH value to 7.0 to obtain water-based polyacrylate adhesive.
