Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of heavy-duty anti-corrosion coatings, specifically a graphene-reinforced epoxy-modified silicone resin heavy-duty anti-corrosion powder coating. Background Technology
[0002] Heavy-duty anti-corrosion powder coatings are widely used in harsh corrosive environments such as petrochemicals, marine engineering, and bridge construction due to their solvent-free evaporation and excellent coating performance. Currently, mainstream products use epoxy, polyester, and silicone resins as base materials. However, single resin systems have significant shortcomings: epoxy resins have strong adhesion but insufficient weather resistance and high-temperature resistance, and are prone to chalking after long-term exposure; silicone resins have outstanding high and low temperature resistance and weather resistance, but suffer from poor adhesion and slow curing speed, making it difficult to achieve a balance between anti-corrosion, adhesion, and mechanical properties.
[0003] To optimize performance, the industry often uses epoxy-modified silicone resins. However, traditional modification processes are mostly achieved through simple physical blending or direct copolymerization, resulting in poor resin compatibility and weak interfacial bonding, which makes the coating prone to microcracks. At the same time, existing reinforcing fillers are mainly conventional powders such as talc and mica powder, which have limited reinforcing effects. Moreover, the uneven dispersion of fillers and resin matrix further reduces the density of the coating and makes it unable to block the penetration of corrosive media such as chloride ions and water molecules.
[0004] Graphene has become a research hotspot due to its excellent mechanical and barrier properties. However, unmodified graphene has a highly inert surface, poor compatibility with resins, and is prone to agglomeration, forming defects. While nanoparticles can improve coating performance, individual nanoparticles are prone to agglomeration and lack synergistic design with graphene. Coupling agents mostly use single silane or titanate types, which are difficult to improve the interfacial bonding between inorganic fillers, organic resins, and graphene simultaneously, thus limiting the improvement of coating mechanical strength and corrosion resistance.
[0005] Furthermore, in existing powder coating preparation processes, the melt extrusion process is prone to premature resin curing due to excessively high local temperatures, and the pulverization stage easily produces uneven particle size distribution, affecting the coating's leveling properties and appearance. In harsh corrosive environments, traditional coatings often exhibit insufficient resistance to salt spray and damp heat, resulting in blistering and peeling within a short period, and a service life far shorter than expected. Therefore, developing a heavy-duty anti-corrosion powder coating that combines strong adhesion, high density, excellent corrosion resistance, and mechanical properties, while addressing technical pain points such as insufficient resin modification, poor filler dispersion, and weak interfacial bonding, has become a key issue that the industry urgently needs to overcome.

[0019] (III) Beneficial Technical Effects
[0020] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this invention are:
[0021] Regarding the performance of the resin matrix, an innovative approach is adopted to prepare epoxy-modified silicone resin by bridging with γ-(2,3-epoxypropoxy)propyltrimethoxysilane. This approach strengthens the interfacial bonding between the epoxy resin and the silicone resin through chemical bonding, retaining the strong adhesion of the epoxy resin while also possessing the high and low temperature resistance and weather resistance of the silicone resin. This solves the problems of poor compatibility and performance imbalance of traditional modified resins, providing a stable and reliable matrix support for the coating.
[0022] The filler synergistic reinforcement effect is significant. After modification with sulfide silane, the compatibility of hydroxylated graphene with the resin matrix is greatly improved, and the sheet-like structure can form a dense barrier network. Nano-zirconia coated boron nitride has both thermal conductivity and wear resistance properties, forming a synergistic reinforcement system with graphene to effectively block the penetration of corrosive media. The addition of cage-like silsesquioxane further improves the crosslinking density and thermal stability of the coating. The composite use of modified montmorillonite and nano-graphene oxide quantum dots fills the gaps caused by graphene agglomeration, significantly improving the density and mechanical strength of the coating.
[0023] Interfacial bonding and process compatibility optimization: Lanthanum isooctanoate-titanium ester composite coupling agent can simultaneously improve the interfacial bonding between inorganic fillers, graphene, and organic resins, enhance interfacial forces, and reduce interfacial defects. Nitrogen-protected melt extrusion and liquid nitrogen cryogenic pulverization processes during preparation prevent premature resin curing, ensure uniform powder particle size distribution, and improve coating leveling and appearance quality.
[0024] Overall, this patented coating possesses excellent adhesion, mechanical strength, resistance to high and low temperatures, and corrosion resistance, effectively resisting corrosive media in harsh environments and extending the coating's service life. Furthermore, its scientifically designed process is well-suited to the needs of industrial production, providing a superior coating solution for high-end heavy-duty anti-corrosion applications, demonstrating significant practical value and market potential.

[0063] Performance test results table:
[0064]
[0065]
[0066] This table presents the advantages of the patented technical solution. Regarding adhesion, Examples 1-3 all achieve adhesion exceeding 8.3 MPa, as the epoxy-based resin strengthens the substrate bond through chemical bridging, and the composite coupling agent further enhances the interfacial interaction force; the comparative example's physically blended resin has weak bonding with the substrate, with an adhesion of only 5.2 MPa. In terms of salt spray resistance, the graphene-nano-coated powder barrier network constructed in the examples effectively blocks chloride ion penetration, achieving a salt spray resistance time exceeding 4800 hours; the comparative example's unmodified graphene agglomerates and forms defects, resulting in a salt spray resistance of only 1500 hours. Regarding mechanical properties and thermal stability, the cage-like silsesquioxane and modified montmorillonite in the examples enhance the crosslinking density, achieving an impact strength exceeding 5 kJ / m². 2 The thermal decomposition temperature exceeds 415℃; the comparative example lacks a synergistic reinforcement system, and the impact strength is 3.1 kJ / m. 2 The thermal decomposition temperature is only 350℃. The difference in coating appearance stems from the precise process control in the example, which avoids pinhole defects caused by poor powder dispersion in the comparative example.
[0067] Comparison table of process parameters:
[0068]
[0069]
[0070] This table reveals the root causes of performance differences through variations in process details, highlighting the scientific nature of the patent's process design. Regarding resin modification, the example demonstrates how chemical bridging enables stable chemical bonds between epoxy and silicone resins, resulting in superior compatibility and mechanical properties; the comparative example shows that physical blending easily leads to phase separation. In the graphene treatment stage, the example demonstrates how dual treatment with hydroxylation and silane modification improves dispersibility and ensures tight bonding with the resin; the comparative example shows severe agglomeration of untreated graphene, creating a performance bottleneck. Regarding nanoparticles, the example demonstrates how zirconium dioxide coated with boron nitride provides both barrier and wear-resistant properties; the comparative example shows that ordinary boron nitride has a single function. In the coupling agent system, the example demonstrates how a composite coupling agent is adapted to optimize the interfaces of multiple components; the comparative example shows that a single silane has limited effectiveness. In the extrusion and pulverization processes, the example demonstrates how nitrogen protection prevents resin oxidation, and liquid nitrogen cryogenic pulverization ensures uniform particle size; the comparative example shows that air atmosphere and room temperature pulverization result in poor powder quality, ultimately affecting coating performance.

[0072] Performance indicators Example 1 Example 2 Example 3 Comparative Example Resistant to 5% hydrochloric acid (1000h) Non-corrosive Non-corrosive Non-corrosive Surface pitting Resistant to 5% sodium hydroxide (1000h) Non-corrosive Non-corrosive Non-corrosive Edge bubbling Resistant to damp heat (5000h) No change No change Slight loss of light Large-scale peeling Resistant to accelerated aging (3000h) Loss rate 5% Loss rate 4% Loss rate 6% Loss rate 45% Coating hardness (pencil hardness) 3H 3H 2H H
[0073] This table verifies the practical value of the patented coating under corrosive and aging environments. Regarding acid and alkali resistance, the coating in the example, due to the hydrophobic modification of the fluorophosphate ester and its dense filler network, showed no corrosion after 1000 hours of acid and alkali immersion; the coating in the comparative example lacked density, resulting in pitting corrosion in acid and blistering at the edges in alkali. In terms of humid heat resistance, the cage-like silsesquioxane in the example increased the crosslinking density, preventing water molecule penetration, and showed no significant change after 5000 hours; the resin in the comparative example had poor hydrolysis resistance, leading to coating peeling from the substrate under humid heat conditions and large-area delamination. Regarding aging resistance, the silicone resin and nano-quantum dots in the example synergistically resisted ultraviolet radiation, with a gloss loss rate of only 4%-6% after 3000 hours; the comparative example lacked anti-aging design, and resin degradation resulted in a gloss loss rate of 45%. The difference in pencil hardness stemmed from the reinforcing effect of the nano-zirconia-coated boron nitride in the example, achieving a hardness of 2H-3H, far exceeding the H grade of the comparative example, making it more resistant to scratches and wear.

[0076] This table demonstrates the industrial adaptability of this patented technology from a production and construction perspective. Regarding melt flowability, the leveling agent and optimized powder particle size distribution in the examples improve resin flowability by 27-29 mm; in the comparative example, unmodified powder agglomerates, hindering flow (only 20 mm), affecting coating levelability. Regarding curing time, the composite coupling agent in the examples also has a catalytic effect, curing in 14-16 minutes at 180℃; the comparative example's single curing system has low reactivity, requiring 20 minutes, reducing production efficiency. Regarding storage stability, the powder in the examples has uniform particle size and low moisture content (≤0.1%), showing no clumping after 6 months; the comparative example's coarse pulverization process results in a wide particle size distribution, making it prone to moisture absorption and clumping. Regarding coating thickness uniformity and application utilization, the powder in the examples has good flowability and a narrow particle size distribution, easily adhering evenly during application with a deviation of only ±2-3 μm and a utilization rate of 94%-96%; the comparative example's powder performance is unstable, with a thickness deviation of ±5 μm and a utilization rate of only 85%, increasing construction costs.

After the reaction is completed, the mixture is freeze-dried to obtain silane-modified graphene. S2. Premixing: Add epoxy-modified silicone resin, sulfide-modified graphene, nano-zirconia-coated boron nitride, cage-shaped silsesquioxane, and polyether ether ketone micro powder to a high-speed mixer according to the formula, and stir at 2200-2800 r / min for 16-19 minutes in a planetary mixer. During the stirring process, control the material temperature to not exceed 40℃. S3. Melting reaction: Add lanthanum isooctanoate-titanium ester composite coupling agent, fluorinated phosphate, curing agent, leveling agent, and defoamer to the mixture. After mixing evenly, feed it into a twin-screw extruder. Control the temperature of zone 1 to 90-100℃, zone 2 to 115-125℃, zone 3 to 115-125℃, and zone 4 to 100-110℃. The screw speed is 380-420 r / min. Maintain a nitrogen atmosphere during extrusion. S4. Post-treatment: Cool the extrudate to room temperature with cooling rollers, crush it into particles with a particle size of 5-10 mm, and feed it into an ultra-fine pulverizer for further pulverization. After pulverization, pass it through a 220-280 mesh sieve. After sieving, vacuum dry the material at 40-50℃ for 2-3 hours to obtain a heavy-duty anti-corrosion powder coating.
