Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of polysiloxane emulsion technology, belonging to patent classification number C08G77 / 04, specifically to an anionic hydroxyl silicone oil emulsion and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Hydroxyl silicone oil emulsion is a homogeneous emulsion of polydimethylsiloxane with hydroxyl-terminated ends. Visually, it appears as a white, homogeneous emulsion free of mechanical impurities. Due to its unique molecular structure, hydroxyl silicone oil emulsion possesses numerous superior properties, playing a crucial role in the finishing of various textiles. It not only significantly improves fabric elasticity but also effectively enhances fabric hand feel, making the fabric softer and smoother. Furthermore, it is suitable for fabric finishing and sewing thread treatment, enhancing thread strength and toughness, preventing breakage, and increasing sewing speed. It can also be used as a release agent and mold release agent. In the demolding process of rubber, plastics, and other materials, it reduces friction between the material and the mold, making the demolding process smoother, improving production efficiency and product quality.
[0003] Silicone oil emulsions can be classified into several types based on the surfactants they use, including cationic, anionic, nonionic, and complex ionic emulsions. Among them, anionic hydroxyl silicone oil emulsions are highly favored. Anionic hydroxyl emulsions exhibit good compatibility in fabric finishing agents and are very stable. In textile printing and dyeing processes, most auxiliaries are anionic. If cationic hydroxyl emulsions are used, they often easily cause emulsion breaking and oil floating phenomena, while anionic hydroxyl emulsions can effectively avoid this drawback. Therefore, they are more popular with users in practical applications and have extremely wide applications. For example, in the textile printing and dyeing industry, using it for fabric finishing instantly makes cotton, linen, silk, and wool fabrics soft and smooth, enhances elasticity and abrasion resistance, and improves waterproof and heat resistance; in the thread manufacturing industry, it greatly increases the strength and toughness of high-speed sewing threads, reduces needle and thread breakage, and improves sewing efficiency; in the treatment of wigs, it makes them soft and shiny, and easier to comb; in the leather industry, it serves as an excellent release agent; and in the rubber and plastics industry, it serves as a highly efficient water-based release agent.
[0004] However, existing anionic hydroxyl silicone oil emulsions still have some shortcomings, the most prominent being poor thermal stability. Silicone oil emulsions are essentially thermodynamically unstable multiphase dispersion systems composed of silicone oil, emulsifiers, and water. Under normal conditions, the emulsifier reduces the interfacial tension between silicone oil and water, allowing the silicone oil to be uniformly dispersed in the water, forming a relatively stable emulsion. However, when the ambient temperature rises, the movement of water molecules in the emulsion intensifies, potentially disrupting the stable structure formed by the silicone oil and emulsifier, leading to emulsion demulsification, i.e., the separation of silicone oil and water. For example, in scenarios requiring high-temperature processing of materials, if the anionic hydroxyl silicone oil emulsion has poor stability, it cannot maintain good performance at high temperatures. In environments with temperatures between 120°C and 180°C, the emulsion may demulsify, preventing it from effectively providing softening and waterproofing properties in fabric finishing, and hindering smooth demolding, thus affecting product quality and production efficiency. Furthermore, demulsification may leave residues on equipment or mold surfaces, increasing cleaning difficulty and costs, and adversely impacting production. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an anionic hydroxyl silicone oil emulsion and its preparation method, thereby solving the technical problem of poor thermal stability of silicone oil emulsions mentioned in the background art. The anionic hydroxyl silicone oil emulsion prepared by this invention has good thermal stability and is suitable for use under harsh high-temperature environments.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A method for preparing an anionic hydroxyl silicone oil emulsion includes the following steps:
[0008] a) Mix triethanolamine dodecylbenzenesulfonate, tridecyl alcohol polyether and deionized water, stir to dissolve and heat, add polydimethylsiloxane alcohol under high-speed shearing for homogenization, then add deionized water and keep the reaction at a constant temperature to obtain the basic emulsion.
[0009] b) Add a mixture of γ-(methacryloyloxy)propyltrimethoxysilane and dibutyltin dilaurate to the base emulsion and react to obtain an interface-enhanced emulsion;
[0010] c) Acrylamide, N-hydroxymethylacrylamide, N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide and deionized water are mixed and pre-emulsified to obtain a monomer pre-emulsion. Under nitrogen protection, the monomer pre-emulsion and ammonium persulfate are slowly added to the interface-strengthened emulsion to carry out the polymerization reaction, forming a cross-linked polymer shell on the surface of the emulsion particles, and obtaining a polymer shell-protected emulsion.
[0011] d) After the temperature of the polymer shell protective emulsion drops below 40°C, add tert-butylhydroquinone and disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate, stir and mix evenly to obtain an antioxidant emulsion;
[0012] e) Add phenoxyethanol and octyl glycol to the antioxidant emulsion, stir well, and then add triethanolamine aqueous solution dropwise to adjust the pH to obtain anionic hydroxy silicone oil emulsion.
[0013] In this invention, the base emulsion uses a composite emulsification system composed of triethanolamine dodecylbenzenesulfonate (anionic) and tridecyl alcohol polyether (nonionic). The electrostatic repulsion of the anionic emulsifier and the steric hindrance effect of the nonionic emulsifier jointly construct a stable interface structure for the base emulsion, effectively preventing the aggregation and fusion of latex particles at high temperatures. This invention achieves thermal stability of the base emulsion through a triple mechanism: First, interface strengthening is achieved through the bonding of γ-(methacryloyloxy)propyltrimethoxysilane with hydroxyl silicone oil. γ-(methacryloyloxy)propyltrimethoxysilane undergoes hydrolysis under the catalysis of dibutyltin dilaurate, generating reactive silanol groups. These silanol groups undergo a directional condensation reaction with the silanol groups at the ends of the hydroxyl silicone oil molecules, forming stable covalent siloxane bonds. This process forms a covalently bonded organosilicon hybrid layer at the oil-water interface of latex particles, significantly reducing interfacial energy, increasing interfacial film strength and elastic modulus, and enhancing resistance to deformation at high temperatures. This effectively suppresses latex particle collision and aggregation caused by intensified Brownian motion. Simultaneously, it significantly reduces the Ostwald ripening effect, ensuring the emulsion maintains stable particle size distribution at high temperatures. Secondly, acrylamide and N-hydroxymethylacrylamide, under the action of the crosslinking agent N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide, undergo a free radical polymerization reaction initiated by ammonium persulfate. This process grafts and copolymerizes on the surface of latex particles with reactive double bonds (double bonds on silane coupling agents), forming a polymer shell with a three-dimensional network structure and a high glass transition temperature. This ensures the shell maintains a rigid structure at high temperatures, effectively blocking the thermal motion and escape of the core silicone oil molecules. Furthermore, the formed hydrogen bond network effectively dissipates heat stress, preventing shell cracking and providing physical protection for the core. Finally, the thermo-oxidative degradation reaction of silicone oil polymer chains is inhibited through antioxidant effects. Specifically, tert-butylhydroquinone acts as a free radical scavenger to quench the active free radicals generated by thermo-oxidation, and disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate cuts off the metal-catalyzed oxidation pathway by chelating transition metal ions. Through the above actions, the thermo-oxidative degradation reaction of hydroxyl silicone oil polymer chains can be effectively inhibited, thereby further improving the thermal stability of silicone oil emulsions.
[0014] Preferably, in step a), the mass ratio of triethanolamine dodecylbenzenesulfonate to tridecyl alcohol polyether is 6:1 to 4.
[0015] Preferably, in step a), the heat preservation reaction temperature is 75-80°C and the reaction time is 2-3 hours.
[0016] Preferably, in step b), the mass ratio of γ-(methacryloyloxy)propyltrimethoxysilane to dibutyltin dilaurate is 10:0.5 to 1.5.
[0017] Preferably, in step c), the mass ratio of acrylamide to N-hydroxymethylacrylamide is 10:2 to 5.
[0018] Preferably, in step c), octadecyl methacrylate is also added to the monomer preemulsion.
[0019] In the technical solution of this invention, as described above, acrylamide and N-hydroxymethylacrylamide are grafted and copolymerized on the surface of latex particles to form a polymer shell with a three-dimensional network structure, thereby improving the thermal stability of the emulsion. However, after in-depth research, the research team found that the subsequently added tert-butylhydroquinone oil-soluble antioxidant was blocked outside the polymer shell and confined in the hydrophilic polymer network, unable to effectively migrate to the hydrophobic silicone oil core region, thus affecting the full effectiveness of the main antioxidant tert-butylhydroquinone. To further solve this problem, this invention introduces octadecyl methacrylate into the polymer shell. Its long-chain alkyl groups spontaneously align during polymerization according to the principle of like dissolves like, forming continuous hydrophobic microchannels in the hydrophilic polyacrylamide crosslinking network. These microchannels provide a directional migration path for the oil-soluble antioxidant tert-butylhydroquinone molecules, enabling them to efficiently penetrate the polymer shell barrier and rapidly diffuse to the silicone oil core, thereby solving the problem of local failure of the antioxidant due to steric hindrance and significantly improving the utilization efficiency and overall thermal-oxidative stability of the antioxidant system.
[0020] Preferably, the amount of octadecyl methacrylate added is 1 to 5 wt% of the total mass of acrylamide and N-hydroxymethylacrylamide.
[0021] Preferably, in step d), the mass ratio of tert-butylhydroquinone to disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate is 3:1 to 2.
[0022] Preferably, in step e), the mass ratio of phenoxyethanol to octanelyl glycol is 8:3 to 5.
[0023] An anionic hydroxyl silicone oil emulsion is prepared by the method described above.
[0024] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0025] 1. A composite emulsion system using anionic triethanolamine dodecylbenzenesulfonate and nonionic tridecyl alcohol polyether is adopted. Through electrostatic repulsion and steric hindrance, a stable basic emulsion interface is constructed, which effectively prevents the aggregation and fusion of latex particles under high temperature conditions, thus providing a basis for the thermal stability of the emulsion.
[0026] 2. An organosilicon hybrid layer is formed through the bonding reaction of γ-(methacryloyloxy)propyltrimethoxysilane and hydroxyl silicone oil, which reduces the interfacial energy, improves the interfacial film strength and elastic modulus, and inhibits latex particle collision aggregation and Ostwald curing. At the same time, acrylamide monomers polymerize on the surface of latex particles to form a three-dimensional network polymer shell. Its high glass transition temperature ensures high-temperature rigidity, which can prevent silicone oil from escaping. In addition, the hydrogen bond network dissipates heat and stress, preventing the shell from cracking.
[0027] 3. By capturing thermally oxidized free radicals with tert-butylhydroquinone and chelating transition metal ions with disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate to cut off the catalytic oxidation pathway, the thermal-oxidative degradation of hydroxyl silicone oil chains is directly inhibited. At the same time, octadecyl methacrylate is introduced to form hydrophobic microchannels in the polymer shell, which helps oil-soluble antioxidants migrate efficiently to the silicone oil core, solves the problem of local failure caused by steric hindrance, and significantly improves antioxidant efficiency and overall thermal stability.

[0068] Performance testing:
[0069] 1. Thermal stability test: 50 mL of the emulsion to be tested was placed into a stoppered glass centrifuge tube, sealed, and placed in a precision constant temperature oven at 120℃, 150℃, and 180℃ (temperature fluctuation ≤ ±1℃). The state was observed every 2 hours, and the time when the first layering, oil floating, or demulsification occurred was recorded; if no abnormalities were observed within 24 hours, it was recorded as "≥24h". Each temperature condition was tested in parallel 3 times, and the average value was taken as the result. The test results are shown in Table 1.

[0071]
[0072] 2. Centrifugation stability test: 10 mL of the emulsion was injected into a graduated centrifuge tube and centrifuged at 3000 rpm (accuracy ±50 rpm) for 30 minutes. After standing to room temperature, the layering was observed. Evaluation was based on three levels: "no layering (uniform and without layering), slight layering (supernatant ≤5%)," and "severe layering (supernatant >5% or oil clumping)." The test was performed in triplicate, and the majority result was used as the final evaluation. The test results are shown in Table 2.
[0073] 3. Particle size distribution stability test: A laser particle size analyzer (0.1-1000μm, accuracy ≤±2%) was used. The emulsion was diluted 100 times with deionized water and ultrasonically dispersed for 2 minutes (300W, 40kHz). The initial particle size distribution and the particle size distribution after being kept at 150℃ for 24 hours were measured, and the coefficient of variation (CV = standard deviation / average particle size × 100%) was calculated. Each sample was tested in triplicate, and the average value was taken. The smaller the CV value, the more stable the particle size distribution. The test results are shown in Table 2.
[0074] 4. Viscosity Retention Rate Test under Thermo-Oxidative Degradation: The initial viscosity (η0) of the emulsion was measured at 60 rpm using a rotational viscometer (1-10000 mPa·s, accuracy ±1%) in a 25℃ constant temperature water bath (±0.1℃). After the emulsion was placed in a 150℃ oven for 24 hours, it was cooled to 25℃ and the viscosity after aging (η1) was measured. The viscosity retention rate (%) was calculated using the formula "Viscosity retention rate (%) = (η1 / η0) × 100%". Three parallel tests were performed, and the average value was taken. The higher the value, the stronger the resistance to thermo-oxidative degradation. The test results are shown in Table 2.

The mass ratio of acrylamide to N-hydroxymethylacrylamide is 10:2-5, and the amount of octadecyl methacrylate added is 1-5 wt% of the total mass of acrylamide and N-hydroxymethylacrylamide. A monomer pre-emulsion is obtained. Under nitrogen protection, the monomer pre-emulsion and ammonium persulfate are slowly added to the interface-strengthened emulsion to carry out the polymerization reaction. A cross-linked polymer shell is formed on the surface of the emulsion particles to obtain a polymer shell-protected emulsion. d) After the temperature of the polymer shell protective emulsion drops below 40°C, add tert-butylhydroquinone and disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate. The mass ratio of tert-butylhydroquinone to disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate is 3:1 to 2. Stir and mix evenly to obtain an antioxidant emulsion. e) Add phenoxyethanol and octyl glycol to the antioxidant emulsion, with a mass ratio of phenoxyethanol to octyl glycol of 8:3 to 5, stir evenly, and then add triethanolamine aqueous solution dropwise to adjust the pH to obtain anionic hydroxy silicone oil emulsion.
