Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a kind of anti-UV, corrosion-resistant and low-temperature resistant anti-freezing geotextile material composition, belongs to the technical field of polymer compound composition. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the field of polymer material engineering, by the way of melt blending, phenolic antioxidant, hindered amine light stabilizer or ultraviolet absorber small molecule functional additives are uniformly dispersed in polypropylene or polyethylene polyolefin matrix, which is a common technical way to improve the ability of materials to resist light, oxygen, heat and other environmental factors; This method is widely used because these functional small molecules must have the ability to migrate in the polymer matrix to a certain extent to reach the material surface or the degradation reaction point, and then capture free radicals or absorb harmful light, the function is directly related to the molecular level movement ability.
[0003] However, for geotextile materials that need to serve in harsh environments for a long time, the molecular migration characteristics that functional additives rely on to function are also the fundamental reason for their physical loss over a long period of time and ultimately leading to the attenuation of material protection performance. This thermodynamically driven molecular diffusion makes these small molecules that are not firmly connected to the polymer backbone continue to be lost through volatilization, migration to the material surface and then being washed away by rain or extracted by the contacting fluid. The direct consequence of this process is the attenuation of material protection ability. This process is slow, continuous and does not produce obvious external characteristics before material failure, resulting in that the long-term reliability of the material becomes a probabilistic speculation rather than a deterministic engineering guarantee.
[0004] To slow down the loss of functional additives, the industry's technological improvement efforts have mainly focused on two directions: one is to increase the molecular weight of the additive to reduce its migration rate, and the other is to chemically graft the additive onto the polymer backbone in the form of covalent bonds. However, the former is essentially still an adjustment within the migration-loss framework, and does not change the fact that the functional components will eventually be depleted. Moreover, excessively large molecular weights can sometimes limit their efficiency in exerting their functions. While the latter achieves permanent fixation, the complex grafting reaction not only significantly increases production costs, but the side reactions or catalyst residues in the process may also negatively affect the mechanical and processing properties of the matrix material, limiting its widespread application in the cost-sensitive geosynthetic materials field where high performance consistency is required. Specifically, existing technologies suffer from the following shortcomings: 1. The correlation between functionality and durability: the effectiveness of functional additives depends on their migration ability, which is precisely the cause of their long-term loss. These two factors mutually constrain each other in existing physical blending systems. 2. Uncertainty in material lifespan assessment: the loss rate of functional additives is closely coupled with the complex and variable factors of the service environment, making it difficult to reliably assess the actual performance evolution of materials over decades. 3. The practical limitations of existing improvement schemes: whether simply increasing the molecular weight or using chemical grafting, both face constraints such as reduced functional efficiency, high cost, complex processes, and performance degradation, making it difficult to provide a solution that balances longevity, economy, and high performance. Therefore, the technical challenge this invention aims to solve is how to construct a novel polymer composition system in which functional additives can be permanently fixed within the polymer matrix to prevent physical loss, while also effectively exerting their chemical activity when needed. This would provide polyolefin materials with stable protection throughout their entire design life in an economical way that does not impair their original properties. Summary of the Invention

[0010] Preferably, the polar core of the macromolecular anchor comprises at least one of the functional groups selected from the group consisting of urea, uretone and triazine groups; and the non-covalent bond formed between the recognition sites and the small molecule functional additive is a hydrogen bond, one or more combinations of stacking and dipole-dipole interactions.
[0011] Preferably, the sacrificial linker comprises a first type of sacrificial linker having a first free radical responsive breakage threshold, and a second type of sacrificial linker having a second free radical responsive breakage threshold, wherein the first free radical responsive breakage threshold is lower than the second free radical responsive breakage threshold, such that only the first type of sacrificial linker breaks when the concentration of peroxyl radicals is in a first concentration interval, and the second type of sacrificial linker breaks when the concentration of peroxyl radicals is in a second concentration interval higher than the first concentration interval.
[0012] Preferably, the molar ratio of the first type of sacrificial linker to the second type of sacrificial linker on the macromolecular anchor is in the range of 0.1 to 10. satisfying the following relationship: wherein, is the molar amount of the first type of sacrificial linker, is the molar amount of the second type of sacrificial linker, the molar ratio is set such that the amount of small molecule functional additive released by breakage of the first type of sacrificial linker is sufficient to neutralize a low-intensity, sustained oxidative attack on the composition, while reserving the small molecule functional additive immobilized by the second type of sacrificial linker as a reserve to respond to a high-intensity, acute oxidative attack.
[0013] Preferably, the chemical structure of the first type of sacrificial linker comprises a peroxide bond or a tertiary amine structure highly sensitive to oxidative stress; the chemical structure of the second type of sacrificial linker comprises a sulfide bond or a hindered phenol structure.
[0014] Preferably, the composition further comprises a heat-sensitive crystallization shield having a melting point in the range of 75 to 95 degrees Celsius and capable of forming a reversible crystallization shield around the first type of sacrificial linking group at a temperature below the melting point, the shield inhibiting thermal degradation of the first type of sacrificial linking group in the absence of peroxidic radicals.
[0015] Preferably, the macromolecular anchoring body is an amphiphilic macromolecule, and the macromolecular anchoring body has a concentration gradient distribution in the composition, the concentration of the macromolecular anchoring body at the surface of the composition being higher than the concentration of the macromolecular anchoring body in the interior of the composition, the concentration gradient distribution making the water contact angle of the surface of the composition smaller than the water contact angle of the interior of the composition after the composition is formed.
[0016] Preferably, the concentration of the macromolecular anchoring body at the surface of the composition, as measured by the atomic fraction of nitrogen element at the surface by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, is 1.5 to 5 times the atomic fraction of nitrogen element in the interior of the composition.

[0018] Preferably, the content of the macromolecular anchoring body is in the range of 1.5 to 3.5 parts by weight.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following beneficial effects:
[0020] 1. The macromolecular anchoring body in the composition has a compatible segment with the matrix polymer physically entangled in the melt to establish stable spatial sites in the matrix network; at the same time, its recognition site is combined with the small-molecule functional additive through a non-covalent bond, and this structure makes the macroscopic migration path of the additive constrained while its local activity to function is preserved, changing the long-standing technical method in the industry that relies on the free migration of functional additives in the matrix to function, so that the long-term performance stability of the material is no longer directly subject to the physical loss rate of the functional additives.
[0021] 2、In the recognition site of the macromolecular anchor and the small molecule functional additive, a sacrificial linker sensitive to a specific chemical stimulus is provided. The linker maintains a stable connection under normal conditions, but selectively breaks when a local area is subjected to an external factor that generates a threshold chemical stimulus. This process converts the functional additive, which was originally in a fixed state, into a freely migratable state, allowing it to quickly replenish from unaffected areas of the material to the attacked area. The material's protective mode thus changes from a homogeneous, static overall protection to a dynamic response mode that actively and on-demand allocates functional components according to local environmental changes.
[0022] 3、On this basis, at least two linker structures with different response thresholds to the same chemical stimulus are provided in the sacrificial linker system. When the external stimulus intensity is at a lower level, only the low-threshold linker breaks, releasing an appropriate amount of functional additive to address the current situation. When the stimulus intensity exceeds a higher threshold, the high-threshold linker breaks, releasing the remaining functional additive. This configuration changes the material's dynamic response behavior from a single trigger response to a defense mechanism that can identify and respond quantitatively to external stimulus intensity, thereby avoiding premature depletion of the entire emergency capability for extreme conditions when dealing with low-intensity persistent attacks.
[0023] 4、The amphiphilic structure of the macromolecular anchor itself undergoes directional migration to the surface of the melt and solidification under the influence of shear field or temperature gradient during the processing of the composition through melt spinning or calendering film forming. The polar core is directed towards the outer surface of the material. This process naturally forms a gradient structure with hydrophobic interior and polar group-rich surface in the chemically homogeneous composition without any additional surface treatment steps. This allows the durability of the material body and the interfacial functionality of the material surface, which are usually mutually contradictory performance requirements, to be unified through the same core component in the same processing flow.

[0029] To make the technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solutions of the present application will be described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, but not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0030] The present application provides an anti-ultraviolet, corrosion-resistant and low-temperature resistant geotextile material composition, which comprises a polypropylene matrix polymer, a small molecule functional additive and a macromolecular anchoring body. The macromolecular anchoring body is used to fix the small molecule functional additive and regulate its responsive release. In the anti-seepage engineering of large water conservancy facilities or solid waste landfill sites, the geotextile material needs to maintain the stability of its structure and performance for a long time. In the prior art, in order to improve the durability of the material, anti-aging additives are added, which depend on the molecular migration ability in the polymer matrix. However, this migration ability is also the main reason for the loss of the additives due to volatilization or washing in long-term service, and finally causes the performance degradation of the material. To solve this problem, the macromolecular anchoring body in the composition of the present application has a structure comprising a polyolefin anchoring segment compatible with the matrix polymer. In the preparation process using a twin-screw extruder for melt blending, the number average molecular weight of the anchoring segment is controlled in the range of 3000 to 20000 Dalton. The setting of this molecular weight range is based on the fact that if the molecular weight is less than 3000 Dalton, the length of the segment is insufficient to form stable physical entanglement in the polypropylene melt, and if the molecular weight is higher than 20000 Dalton, the melt viscosity may be too high to affect the processing flowability of the composition. Therefore, this molecular weight range is determined after technical trade-off between anchoring stability and composition processability. Within this molecular weight range, the anchoring segment can form effective physical entanglement in the polypropylene matrix network, thereby fixing the macromolecular anchoring body in the material matrix. The macromolecular anchoring body also comprises a polar core, and the polar core is connected with multiple recognition sites. To ensure that the fixed functional additive can still exert its chemical activity, the recognition sites and the small molecule functional additive, such as 770 type hindered amine light stabilizer or 1010 type phenolic antioxidant containing active groups, form hydrogen bonds, The non-covalent bond, such as stacking or dipole-dipole interaction, has a bond energy sufficient to constrain the migration of the small molecule additive at a macroscopic scale and maintain its chemical activity required for capturing free radicals at a molecular scale; to ensure anchoring efficiency, the ratio of the molar equivalent of the recognition site to the molar equivalent of the functional group of the small molecule functional additive is controlled in the range of 0.6 to 1.5, if the ratio is lower than 0.6, the number of recognition sites provided by the macromolecular anchoring body is insufficient, resulting in more additive molecules in a free state, if the ratio is higher than 1.5, the excess of polar groups may cause compatibility problems, therefore the interval is a balanced choice to achieve high efficiency anchoring and maintain system uniformity.
[0031] In a specific embodiment, the small molecule functional additive can further comprise a UV absorber to absorb high-energy ultraviolet light and convert it into harmless heat energy, thereby reducing the generation of photo-induced free radicals from the source, the UV absorber can be selected as UV-531 type UV absorber, which contains a hydroxyl functional group in its chemical structure, which can form a non-covalent bond such as hydrogen bond with the polar group of the recognition site on the macromolecular anchoring body, therefore, the UV absorber can also be fixed in the polypropylene matrix by the aforementioned anchoring method to avoid its physical loss due to migration, when the UV absorber coexists with the hindered amine light stabilizer and phenolic antioxidant in the anchoring system of the present application, the three together constitute a multi-level synergistic protection system, the UV absorber performs the first level of energy absorption, the hindered amine light stabilizer and the phenolic antioxidant perform the second level of chemical quenching on any free radicals that fail to be prevented, thereby improving the long-term photo-thermal stability of the composition as a whole; in the case of acute degradation environment such as local pollution of strong oxidizing chemicals encountered by geotextile materials, the aforementioned static fixation system may fail to respond quickly and cause local protection failure; to deal with this situation, the present solution provides a sacrificial linking group between the recognition site and the polar core, the chemical structure of the sacrificial linking group, such as a specific sulfide bond or tertiary amine structure, remains stable under normal working conditions to maintain the fixation of the small molecule functional additive, but when exposed to high concentration of peroxide radicals as a pre-set chemical stimulus, its chemical bond will undergo preferentially selective oxidative cleavage, this process makes the small molecule functional additive in the attacked local area change to a free migration state and quickly diffuse from the surrounding undamaged material area to the area, thereby neutralizing the high concentration of active species.
[0032] Considering the varying intensities of oxidative attacks in actual working conditions, and to avoid prematurely depleting all emergency protection capabilities when dealing with low- to medium-intensity attacks, the sacrificial linker system can be further configured to include at least two linker structures with different response fracture thresholds. The first type of sacrificial linker employs chemical structures such as peroxy bonds or tertiary amines highly sensitive to oxidative stress, requiring a lower free radical concentration threshold for fracture, thus addressing low-intensity sustained attacks. The second type of sacrificial linker employs structures with higher chemical stability, such as thioether bonds or hindered phenols, requiring a higher concentration of free radicals for fracture, thus addressing high-intensity acute attacks. The molar ratio of the two types of linkers on the macromolecular anchor is... It can be set within a specific range, for example ,in For the molar amount of the first type of sacrificial linker, The molar amount of the second type of sacrificial linker is set in such a proportion that, when the composition encounters low-intensity sustained oxidative attack, the amount of functional additives released through the cleavage of the first type of sacrificial linker is sufficient to cope with the attack, while retaining functional additives fixed by the second type of sacrificial linker as a reserve to cope with high-intensity acute oxidative attack. It should be noted that, to ensure the stability of the first type of sacrificial linker, which is highly sensitive to oxidative stress, during long-term thermal aging, the composition may also contain a thermosensitive crystallizing shielding agent. This shielding agent is an oligomer with a melting point in the range of 75°C to 95°C. This melting point temperature is higher than the maximum conventional service temperature of the geotextile but lower than its processing temperature. Below its melting point, the shielding agent molecules will form reversible crystallizing agents around the polar core of the macromolecular anchor solid. The crystalline shielding layer reduces the thermal degradation rate of type I sacrificial linkages in the absence of peroxide free radicals, thus ensuring the long-term effectiveness of the graded response mechanism. In applications where geotextiles need to be laminated with other materials, their surface properties are also a key parameter. The characteristics of macromolecular anchors as amphiphilic macromolecules can be utilized. During the melt processing of the composition, by applying a shear field or controlling the temperature gradient, they can be induced to migrate to the surface of the melt. After cooling and solidification, the macromolecular anchors exhibit a concentration gradient distribution in the composition, with their concentration on the surface of the composition being higher than their concentration inside the composition. This concentration gradient distribution results in the water contact angle on the surface of the composition being smaller than that inside the composition after molding, thereby improving the functionality of the material surface without adding additional surface treatment processes.
[0033] Example 1: In a high-standard hazardous chemical landfill project designed for a service life of more than 100 years, the polypropylene geotextile used in its impermeable system needs to withstand long-term strong ultraviolet radiation, annual temperature difference cycles exceeding 60 degrees Celsius, and the continuous action of low-concentration oxidative substances generated by the decomposition of residual organic matter in leachate; for conventional modified geotextile materials, durability assessment relies on a statistical model based on the migration and loss rate of functional additives, which cannot provide a deterministic performance guarantee for a 100-year service life of the project; under these working conditions, the geotextile prepared using the composition of the foregoing specific embodiments has macromolecular anchors inside that form physical entanglements with the polypropylene matrix through its polyolefin anchor segments, which fix themselves and small-molecule functional additives bound by non-covalent bonds in the material network, such structure blocks the migration path of functional additives, avoiding the decay of protective performance caused by physical loss in long-term service, and since the functional additives are bound by non-covalent bonds with moderate bond energy, the molecular activity of radical capture is preserved, thus solving the conflict between the migration and persistence of traditional additives.
[0034] When a small amount of waste liquid containing high-concentration peroxide leaks due to operational errors during the operation of the landfill and directly contacts the surface of the geotextile, the material in the local area encounters ultra-high concentration of peroxide radicals; in this area, the sacrificial linker contained in the structure of the macromolecular anchor selectively breaks its chemical bond to the concentration of free radicals, this process triggers the local release of small-molecule functional additives previously anchored, these released functional additives, driven by the concentration gradient, quickly supplement from the surrounding unaffected material area to the attacked core area, forming a local, high-concentration protective layer, effectively neutralizing the peroxide radicals, this process uses peroxide radicals as a degradation trigger to convert them into a regulatory signal that triggers a transient increase in local protection capacity; after the local chemical attack event is handled, the incident point loses its emergency response capability due to the consumption of functional additives, but the vast area of geotextile material around it has not experienced ultra-threshold chemical stimulation, its internal functional additive reserves are still stably anchored by macromolecular anchors, the long-term ultraviolet and thermal oxidative aging resistance performance benchmarks of the entire impermeable system are not affected, and the predictability of the overall performance evolution path of the material is maintained.
[0035] Example 2: To objectively verify the performance stability of the composition of the present application under long-term photo-thermal aging conditions, and to define the content range of the key component macromolecular anchoring body, an accelerated aging comparative test was conducted. Seven groups of samples were prepared, and the fiber-grade isotactic polypropylene was used as the base polymer, and the reference melt mass flow rate of the base polymer was 3.0 g / 10 min under the condition of 230°C and 2.16 kg load; the mixture of 770 type hindered amine light stabilizer and 1010 type phenolic antioxidant was used as the small molecule functional additive, and the macromolecular anchoring body was prepared by reacting maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (PP-g-MAH) with a number average molecular weight Mn≈8500 g / mol and a grafting rate of 1.0% with N,N-dimethyl-1,3-propanediamine as the first type of sacrificial linker precursor monomer and 4,7,10-trioxa-1,13-tridecanediamine (molar ratio Rlink≈0.3) as the second type of sacrificial linker precursor monomer, and then reacted with toluene-2,4-diisocyanate (TDI) to form a polar core. The number average molecular weight of the macromolecular anchoring body was 11500 g / mol; a double-screw extruder was used for blending and extrusion at 220°C, and standard tensile sample strips were prepared by tabletting. The formulations of each group were as follows: control group 1 contained 98 parts of polypropylene base and 2 parts of small molecule functional additive; control group 2 contained 97 parts of polypropylene base and 3 parts of macromolecular anchoring body, without small molecule functional additive; control group 3 contained 0.5 parts of macromolecular anchoring body; control group 4 contained 6.0 parts of macromolecular anchoring body; test group 1 contained 1.5 parts of macromolecular anchoring body; test group 2 contained 3.0 parts of macromolecular anchoring body; test group 3 contained 4.5 parts of macromolecular anchoring body. Except for control groups 1 and 2, the total amount of small molecule functional additive was kept constant, and the polypropylene base content was adjusted so that the total of each group was 100 parts; all the tensile sample strips of all groups were placed in the same xenon lamp aging test box, and accelerated aging was carried out according to GB / T16422.2 standard, the test conditions were set as follows: the irradiance at 340 nm wavelength was , the blackboard temperature was 65 , and the humidity cycle was implemented. At 0h, 500h, 1000h, 1500h and 2000h of the aging process, samples were taken from each group for tensile strength test, and the tensile strength retention rate relative to the initial strength of each group was calculated.
[0036] The test data show that the tensile strength retention of each sample group decreases to different degrees with the increase of aging time. The strength retention of the control group 1 without macromolecular anchoring body decreases rapidly and is reduced to 50.1% of the initial value after 1000h. The strength retention of the control group 2 without small molecule functional additive decreases most seriously and is only 28.6% after 1000h. The performance of the control group 3 with less than 1 part of macromolecular anchoring body decreases more slowly than the control group 1, but the strength retention is also reduced to 61.5% after 1000h. The initial strength of the control group 4 with more than 5 parts of macromolecular anchoring body decreases slightly, and the 90.3% strength retention after 1000h does not show further advantages compared with the test groups. The test groups 1 to 3 with 1.5 to 4.5 parts of macromolecular anchoring body all show high strength retention, and the values are maintained above 92% after 1000h. For specific data, refer to Table 1.
[0037] Table 1: Tensile strength retention of each sample group at different aging times.
[0038]
[0039] The analysis of the data shown in Table 1 shows that the rapid performance decline of the control group 1 is due to the physical loss of the small molecule functional additive not fixed under the light and heat conditions. The comparison of the performance of the control group 1, the control group 2 and each test group shows that the combination of the macromolecular anchoring body and the small molecule functional additive has a synergistic effect on obtaining long-term stability. The data of the control group 3 shows that when the content of the macromolecular anchoring body is less than 1 part, the anchoring network formed in the matrix is not enough to effectively fix all the additive molecules. The data of the control group 4 shows that when the content of the macromolecular anchoring body is more than 5 parts, there is no better performance, and the slight decrease of the initial strength may be related to the dispersibility of the excessive polar component in the non-polar matrix. According to the test results, the content of the macromolecular anchoring body in the range of 1 to 5 parts is a technical selection for the composition of the present application to obtain long-term light stability.
[0040] Example 3: This example combines Figures 1 to 5 to explain a geotextile material composition with anti-ultraviolet, corrosion resistance and low-temperature frost resistance, like Figure 1As shown in the diagram, the process begins with a judgment of the effects of the external environment. Under normal operating conditions, i.e., when the judgment result for whether an over-threshold chemical stimulus is negative, the system enters a static protection mode. In this mode, the sacrificial linker remains stable, and the functional additive is firmly anchored, thereby achieving long-term and durable protection. However, when encountering an acute attack, i.e., when the judgment result is positive, the system enters a dynamic response mode. This mode first determines the attack intensity. For low-intensity continuous attacks, the first type of sacrificial linker is broken, while for high-intensity acute attacks, the second type of sacrificial linker is broken. Both paths lead to the on-demand release of the functional additive, causing it to change from a fixed state to a free-migrating state.
[0041] like Figure 2 As shown, the horizontal axis represents the content of macromolecular anchor solids in parts by weight, the left vertical axis represents the strength retention rate after 2000 hours of aging in percentage (%), and the right vertical axis represents the puncture resistance in Newtons (N). The three curves in the figure correspond to the three performance indicators of strength retention rate, puncture resistance, and melt flow rate after 2000 hours, respectively. The curves show that as the content of macromolecular anchor solids increases from 1.5 parts by weight to 3.5 parts by weight, the strength retention rate of the material after 2000 hours shows a trend of first increasing and then stabilizing, reaching a peak plateau when the content is about 2.5 to 3.0 parts by weight. The puncture resistance also reaches its maximum value near this range, while the melt flow rate decreases monotonically with the increase of content.
[0042] like Figure 3 As shown, the diagram consists of three state diagrams. State (I) shows the stable anchoring state under normal operating conditions, where the functional additives HALS and AO are firmly bonded to the polar core through linking groups. State (II) shows that under low-intensity oxidation (low concentration of RO·), only the first type of linking group, which is more sensitive to oxidative stress, breaks, resulting in the release of the functional additive HALS, while AO remains in the anchoring state. State (III) shows that under high-intensity oxidation (high concentration of RO·), both the first and second type of linking groups break.
[0043] like Figure 4 As shown, this figure displays its Fourier transform infrared spectrum (... The spectrum, with the vertical axis representing transmittance ( The horizontal axis represents the wave number (). The figure clearly shows several characteristic absorption peaks used to confirm the chemical structure, including Stretching (imide) Stretching (imide) Stretching (urea group), aromatic ring skeleton vibration, Stretching (alkylpropylene) and Stretching (urea group); such asFigure 5 The figure shows a gel permeation chromatogram of the macromolecular anchor ) test curve, whose ordinate is detector response (AU), lower abscissa is elution time (min), and upper abscissa is corresponding molecular weight (g / mol).
[0044] Example 4: In the application of geotextile in agricultural irrigation and drainage channels, the material not only needs to withstand continuous sunlight, but also needs to cope with long-term slow oxidation of low-concentration residual herbicides in the channel water and short-term impact of high-concentration oxidizing pesticides due to upstream leakage, so the proportions of different response rate protection components in the material need to be matched to adapt to this composite aging environment; to determine the appropriate molar ratio , first, a series of test samples were prepared, each sample group used fiber-grade isotactic polypropylene with a reference melt mass-flow rate (230°C, 2.16kg load) of 3.0g / 10min as the base polymer, and used 770 type hindered amine light stabilizer and 1010 type phenolic antioxidant as small molecule functional additives, and the total content of macromolecular anchor was 3.0 parts by weight; the macromolecular anchor itself was prepared by reacting maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (PP-g-MAH) with N,N-dimethyl-1,3-propanediamine (first type of sacrificial linker precursor monomer), 4,7,10-trioxa-1,13-tridecanediamine (second type of sacrificial linker precursor monomer), and toluene-2,4-diisocyanate (TDI); by adjusting the molar ratio of the two corresponding active monomers in the step of synthesizing the macromolecular anchor, five sample groups with molar ratios of the first type of sacrificial linker to the second type of sacrificial linker of 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5 were prepared, and were labeled as sample groups R0.1 to R0.5; then, all sample groups were subjected to two-stage sequential aging tests, in the first stage, the sample groups were soaked in 0.01mol / L hydrogen peroxide solution and treated at 60 for 500 hours to simulate a long-term low-intensity oxidation environment; after the end of this stage, the residual proportion of functional additives still fixed by the second type of sacrificial linker in each sample group was quantitatively detected by chemical analysis method; in the second stage, the sample groups that completed the first stage test were immediately immersed in 1.0mol / L hydrogen peroxide solution and treated at 60 for 24 hours to simulate a high-intensity acute chemical impact; after the test was completed, the tensile strength retention rate of each sample group was measured.
[0045] Experimental data show that after completing the first stage of testing, sample R0.1 had the highest remaining proportion of functional additives fixed by the second type of sacrificial linking group, at 95%, while the remaining proportion of this functional additive in sample R0.5 was less than 50%. After completing the second stage of testing, sample R0.1, due to cumulative damage to the polymer matrix in the first stage, had a final tensile strength retention rate of less than 40%. Sample R0.5, due to excessive consumption of functional additives fixed by the second type of sacrificial linking group in the first stage, had a final strength retention rate of approximately 60%. Samples R0.2 and R0.3, however, had a remaining proportion of functional additives fixed by the second type of sacrificial linking group higher than 80% after the first stage, and a final tensile strength retention rate higher than 85% after the second stage of testing. The results of this calibration method indicate that, for this application environment, adjusting the molar ratio... Setting it within the range of 0.2 to 0.3 is a technical choice that allows the material to balance long-term continuous protection with short-term emergency protection.
[0046] Example 5: In the preparation of a geotextile, the application scenario requires the material surface to be hydrophilic to facilitate adhesion to cement-based materials, while its built-in responsive protection system must be able to withstand the high-temperature environment during storage. The preparation process uses the following basic formulation: fiber-grade isotactic polypropylene as the matrix polymer with a baseline melt flow rate (230°C, 2.16kg load) of 3.0g / 10min, and type 770 hindered amine light stabilizer and type 1010 phenolic antioxidant as small components. The product contains a functional additive and 3.0 parts by weight of a macromolecular anchor solid. This macromolecular anchor solid (number-average molecular weight 11500 g / mol, molar ratio Rlink≈0.3) is prepared by reacting maleic anhydride-grafted polypropylene (PP-g-MAH) with N,N-dimethyl-1,3-propanediamine, 4,7,10-trioxa-1,13-tetanediamine, and toluene-2,4-diisocyanate (TDI). Based on this basic formulation, an additional 1.5 parts by weight of a substance with a melting point of 85°C is added. Polycaprolactone oligomers were used as heat-sensitive crystallization shielding agents. After melt blending, the materials were calendered using a three-roll calendering device. The surface temperature of the calendering roller in contact with the upper surface of the material was set to 140°C. The surface temperature of the calendering roller that contacts the lower surface is set to 155°C. The material passes through the roller gap at a processing linear speed of 10 m / min.
[0047] The performance of the geotextile samples prepared by the above process was confirmed. The water contact angle of its upper surface was measured using a contact angle measuring instrument. The water contact angle of the lower surface is This data indicates that, under the temperature gradient of the calendering roller, the amphiphilic macromolecular anchor solids in the composition have migrated and accumulated to the lower-temperature upper surface. Subsequently, to verify the effect of the thermosensitive crystallization shielding agent, this sample and a comparative sample without the shielding agent (the other components of the formulation are the same as those in this example) were placed together at 80°C. The samples were subjected to 720 hours of thermal aging in the environment. After the aging treatment, the samples were subjected to low-intensity oxidation tests according to the first-stage test method. The test results showed that the remaining proportion of functional additives fixed by the second type of sacrificial linker in the sample of this embodiment was higher than 90%, while the remaining proportion of this part of the functional additives in the comparative sample was lower than 60%.
[0048] Example 6: When determining the geotextile formulation for a specific coastal protection project, the content of macromolecular anchoring solids needs to be calibrated to achieve a balance between the long-term durability and processing fluidity of the material. For this purpose, five groups of samples were prepared. Each group used fiber-grade isotactic polypropylene with a baseline melt flow rate (230°C, 2.16 kg load) of 3.0 g / 10 min as the matrix polymer, and used type 770 hindered amine light stabilizer and type 1010 phenolic antioxidant as small molecule functional additives. The macromolecular anchoring solids used (number average molecular weight 11500 g / mol, molar mass) The sample (Rlink≈0.3) was prepared by reacting maleic anhydride-grafted polypropylene (PP-g-MAH) with N,N-dimethyl-1,3-propanediamine, 4,7,10-trioxa-1,13-tetanediamine, and toluene-2,4-diisocyanate (TDI). The five groups of samples had macromolecular anchor solids content of 1.5 parts, 2.0 parts, 2.5 parts, 3.0 parts, and 3.5 parts by weight, respectively, with the remaining components remaining unchanged. Performance tests were conducted on these five groups of samples, including tensile strength retention after 2000 hours of aging, initial puncture resistance, and tensile strength at 230°C. The melt mass flow rate (MFR) under a load of 2.16 kg was tested. The results showed that when the content of macromolecular anchor solids was 2.5 parts, the tensile strength retention rate after aging was not significantly different from that of samples with contents of 3.0 parts and 3.5 parts. However, its melt mass flow rate was 3.8 g / 10 min, which was higher than the latter two, indicating that it had better processing fluidity. Moreover, its puncture resistance reached its maximum value near this content point. Therefore, 2.5 parts by weight was determined to be the preferred addition amount under this application condition.
[0049] To cope with the difference of melt flowability of different batches of polypropylene raw materials, a set of pre-production process parameter fine-tuning procedures was established. The procedures clearly stated that for each new batch of polypropylene raw material, the melt mass flow rate under standard conditions was first determined and compared with the benchmark value of 3.0 g / 10 min. If the deviation between the measured value and the benchmark value was within ±5%, the production process parameters remained unchanged. If the measured value was 5% higher than the benchmark value, the screw rotation speed of the twin-screw extruder was increased by 3% accordingly to increase the mixing effect. If the measured value was 5% lower than the benchmark value, the set temperature of the first heating zone of the extruder was increased by 5 to reduce the melt viscosity.
[0050] Example 7: In a 500 mL four-necked flask equipped with mechanical stirring, thermometer and nitrogen inlet tube, 200 mL of anhydrous xylene was added as a solvent, and the temperature was raised to 120 °C under nitrogen protection, 50 g of maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (PP-g-MAH, number average molecular weight Mn ≈ 8500 g / mol, grafting rate 1.0%) was added and stirred until completely dissolved; then, 0.31 g of N, N-dimethyl-1, 3-propanediamine (as a precursor monomer of the first type of sacrificial linker) and 1.22 g of 4, 7, 10-trioxa-1, 13-tridecanediamine (as a precursor monomer of the second type of sacrificial linker, molar ratio Rlink ≈ 0.3) were dissolved in 20 mL of anhydrous xylene, and were added dropwise into the reaction system through a constant pressure dropping funnel within 30 minutes. After the addition was completed, the reaction was continued at 120 °C for 4 hours to allow the amines of the diamines to undergo ring-opening reaction with the anhydride groups of PP-g-MAH to form amido acid structures.
[0051] After the reaction was completed, the reaction system was cooled to 80 °C, 10 g of toluene-2, 4-diisocyanate (TDI) was added, and the reaction was continued for 2 hours to allow the isocyanate groups to react with the carboxyl groups of the amido acid and the remaining amino groups to form a polar core. After the reaction was completed, the product was poured into a large amount of acetone for precipitation, filtered, washed with acetone three times, and then dried in a vacuum oven at 80 °C for 24 hours to obtain a white powdery macromolecular anchor, the number average molecular weight of which was 11500 g / mol as measured by gel permeation chromatography (GPC), and the characteristic absorption peaks of imide and urea groups were confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR).
