Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of radiation cooling technology, specifically relating to a modified PVDF / HFP composite porous membrane and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Radiative cooling materials are passive cooling materials that achieve passive cooling by reflecting sunlight and efficiently emitting infrared radiation through atmospheric windows (8-13μm band) (dissipating heat into outer space). As a zero-energy, zero-pollution passive cooling material, radiative cooling materials have been widely used in automobile roofs, vehicle exterior walls, container surfaces, photovoltaic panel surfaces, and roof and exterior wall films.
[0003] However, many problems still exist in the practical application of radiation cooling materials. For example, modified PVDF and HFP composite porous membranes, as a type of radiation cooling composite membrane, still suffer from poor daytime cooling efficiency and spectral selectivity, resulting in insufficient radiation cooling capacity; as well as poor hydrophobicity, dimensional stability, and aging resistance. Therefore, the radiation cooling capacity, hydrophobicity, dimensional stability, and aging resistance of existing modified PVDF and HFP composite porous membranes still need to be improved.

After cooling, let stand for 4-6 hours, then filter with a 0.45μm filter membrane, and then uniformly coat it on the surface of the porous bottom layer. Finally, dry at 25-35℃ and relative humidity of 35%-45% for 24-26 hours to form a dense top layer with a thickness of 10-15μm, thus obtaining a modified PVDF and HFP composite porous membrane.
[0034] The beneficial effects of this invention are:
[0035] This invention provides a modified PVDF and HFP composite porous membrane and its preparation method. The invention effectively improves the radiation cooling capacity, hydrophobicity, dimensional stability and aging resistance of the modified PVDF and HFP composite porous membrane through the following method.
[0036] (1) In the present invention, both zinc oxide and titanium dioxide in the synergistic microspheres are wide bandgap semiconductors, with almost no absorption in the main solar radiation region and the ability to reflect most of the incident sunlight, reducing the heat absorption of the film by solar radiation; the lattice vibration of zinc oxide and the mid-infrared vibration mode of titanium dioxide have strong emission peaks in the 8-13μm atmospheric transparency window, which can efficiently dissipate the heat inside the film to the outer space in the form of infrared radiation, greatly improving the overall emissivity of the composite film in the 8-13μm range; thus simultaneously optimizing the two key links of reflected heat absorption and radiative heat dissipation, significantly improving the radiative cooling capacity of the composite film. The synergistic microspheres significantly improve the net heat dissipation power and maximum cooling range of the composite film by increasing the radiative heat dissipation and reducing the solar heat absorption. When the synergistic microspheres are dispersed in the polymer matrix, they can serve as physical crosslinking points, restricting the high-temperature movement of PVDF-HFP segments through the steric hindrance effect; at the same time, the interfacial interaction between the microspheres and PVDF-HFP can further enhance the rigidity of the matrix and reduce dimensional deformation at high temperatures. Zinc oxide and titanium dioxide are excellent UV absorbers, capable of absorbing most of the incident UV light and preventing the CC and CF bonds of PVDF-HFP from breaking due to UV radiation. The inorganic microspheres have high chemical stability, which can support the porous structure of the membrane and prevent the membrane from shrinking, cracking or collapsing due to polymer degradation during aging, thereby maintaining the stability of solar reflectivity.
[0037] (2) In the modified nanosheet dispersion of this invention, the MXene nanosheets themselves have a certain reflectivity to visible and near-infrared light. After modification with magnesium ions, their band structure is adjusted, reducing the selective absorption of solar radiation. At the same time, the "micro-nano scattering structure" formed by the nanosheets in the porous bottom layer can reflect the incident sunlight out of the membrane surface multiple times, further reducing the solar radiation absorption rate. The vibrational frequencies of the hydroxyl groups, fluorine groups and Mg-O bonds introduced by the modification on the MXene surface fall exactly in the 8-13 μm atmospheric window, which can efficiently emit heat from the membrane. The layered structure of MXene can provide a large number of infrared emission sites. When uniformly dispersed in the PVDF-HFP matrix, it will form a "continuous infrared emission layer", avoiding the problem of low emissivity caused by the small number of molecular vibration modes in a single polymer matrix. The interfacial interaction between MXene and PVDF-HFP can also suppress the infrared quenching effect of the polymer chain and improve the infrared emissivity. At the same time, the porous structure can also reduce the propagation loss of infrared light in the membrane, further improving the emission efficiency. Therefore, the addition of modified MXene can simultaneously increase radiative heat dissipation and reduce solar heat absorption, thereby significantly improving the maximum cooling range of the composite membrane. The fluoride ions introduced by ammonium fluoride modification can significantly reduce the surface energy of MXene; simultaneously, the interfacial compatibility between MXene and PVDF-HFP is improved due to the interaction between fluoride ions and the fluorine chains of PVDF-HFP, avoiding the decrease in contact angle caused by hydrophilic fillers. MXene can inhibit the thermal motion and expansion of PVDF-HFP molecular chains at high temperatures; magnesium and fluoride ions on the surface of modified MXene can form strong interfacial interactions with the CF chains and CO bonds of PVDF-HFP, reducing polymer chain slippage and creep at high temperatures, further limiting membrane dimensional deformation. The layered structure of MXene can block ultraviolet light through both absorption and scattering mechanisms; the strong interfacial interaction between modified MXene and PVDF-HFP can inhibit the migration of polymer chain degradation products during aging, reducing membrane surface cracking and pore collapse; simultaneously, magnesium ions can capture free radicals generated by photo-oxidative aging, delaying the degradation reaction.
[0038] (3) The porous structure of the porous bottom layer of this invention generates a strong light scattering effect, efficiently reflects the solar spectrum, and reduces the solar radiation absorption rate. At the same time, the porous structure can increase the specific surface area, providing more infrared emission sites for the PVDF-HFP matrix, synergistic microspheres, and modified MXene, thereby enhancing atmospheric window radiation. The dense structure of the dense top layer can prevent the pores of the porous bottom layer from being blocked by external dust and water vapor. Meanwhile, the synergistic microspheres and modified MXene in the top layer can further optimize the solar reflectivity based on the porous bottom layer. In addition, the PVDF-HFP matrix and filler in the dense top layer can supplement infrared emission and avoid the loss of emission efficiency caused by leakage radiation due to pores in the porous bottom layer. Therefore, the radiation cooling capacity of the multilayer structure is significantly better than that of a single porous layer or dense layer. The modified MXene and silicon carbide in the dense top layer can form a micro-nano rough structure, which, when superimposed with a hydrophobic matrix, increases the water contact angle of the top layer. Although the porous bottom layer does not directly contact water, the porous structure can buffer the water wetting pressure of the top layer and prevent a sudden drop in hydrophobicity due to local damage to the top layer. Both the dense top layer and the porous bottom layer are based on PVDF-HFP matrix, exhibiting good interfacial compatibility. The top layer constrains the thermal shrinkage and expansion of the bottom layer, while the porous structure of the bottom layer buffers the internal stress of the top layer, preventing dimensional fluctuations in a single structure. The dense top layer, acting as the outer layer, directly blocks ultraviolet light, water vapor, and oxygen, preventing ultraviolet degradation of the PVDF-HFP matrix in the porous bottom layer and preventing the oxidation and loss of the bottom layer filler. The titanium dioxide in the porous bottom layer absorbs a small amount of ultraviolet light penetrating the top layer, further protecting the polymer matrix. Modified MXene reduces the oxidative aging of the matrix by oxygen, thus significantly extending the aging resistance life.

[0076] Performance testing:
[0077] Measurement of radiative cooling capacity:

The results are shown in Table 1.
