Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of road marking materials, and particularly relates to an anti-fouling road marking composition based on hydrophobic nanomaterial and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] As the core identification of traffic infrastructure, road marking is long-term exposed to outdoor environment, and its anti-fouling performance directly affects traffic safety and identification clarity. Traditional road marking materials are mainly of hot melt type or solvent type, and such materials have high surface energy and strong affinity with pollutants such as oil stains, dust and gum, so that the pollutants are easily attached to the surface of the marking to form a stain layer, resulting in blurred marking and reduced reflective performance. Especially in the rainy season or humid environment, the pollutants are further penetrated after water absorption, which aggravates the failure of the marking, increases the maintenance cost, and may even cause traffic accidents. The anti-fouling defect of the traditional material has become the main bottleneck of the application of road marking.
[0003] In view of the anti-fouling deficiency of the traditional marking, the existing technology attempts to optimize it by surface modification or adding nanomaterial. Some schemes use fluorocarbon resin or silane coupling agent to improve the surface hydrophobicity, but the fluorocarbon resin is brittle and is easy to be pulverized and cracked under long-term irradiation of ultraviolet light, resulting in rapid decay of hydrophobicity; the silane coupling agent is combined with the film-forming material mainly through physical adsorption, and the interfacial bonding force is weak, so it is easy to migrate and lose during use, and cannot form a durable anti-fouling interface. Another technology introduces nanofillers (such as silicon dioxide and titanium dioxide) to construct a micro-nano rough structure to enhance the hydrophobicity, but the nanometer particles have poor compatibility with polymers, and are easy to agglomerate due to uneven dispersion, and the filler is easy to fall off after long-term use, which destroys the integrity of the coating and makes it difficult to stably maintain the anti-fouling effect.
[0004] In addition, the road environment is complex and changeable, and the marking needs to cope with rainwater scouring, snow-melting agent corrosion, heavy-load vehicle rolling and other multiple tests. The traditional marking material is easy to produce cracks under the action of environmental stress due to insufficient crosslinking density or poor flexibility of the film-forming material, forming a pollution penetration channel and further reducing the anti-fouling performance. Even if some improved schemes improve the short-term anti-fouling effect, the surface energy will rise again after long-term use due to coating aging (such as ultraviolet decomposition and oxidative degradation), and the pollutants will re-attach, which is difficult to meet the actual needs of long-term anti-fouling of road marking. In summary, it is an urgent need in the field of traffic infrastructure to develop a road marking material with strong anti-fouling property, high interfacial bonding force and excellent weather resistance. SUMMARY
[0005] The present application relates to the technical field of road marking materials, and particularly relates to an anti-fouling road marking composition based on hydrophobic nanomaterial and a preparation method thereof.
[0006] The present invention achieves the above objectives through the following technical solutions: A method for preparing an anti-fouling road marking composition based on hydrophobic nanomaterials, comprising the following steps: S1. Add selenosilane-modified silica and phosphonate-modified nano-titanium dioxide to a high-speed disperser and disperse, then add a dispersant and continue dispersing. S2. Mix the selenol-polyurethane acrylate hybrid, phosphonate-fluorosilicone polyurethane acrylate and waterborne polyurethane dispersion, heat to 60-62℃ and stir; add organosilicon defoamer and stir, then add aliphatic isocyanate, light calcium carbonate and talc and stir at low speed. S3. Finally, adjust the viscosity with deionized water and sieve.
[0007] In this invention, the overall preparation and performance optimization mechanism of the composition is described. During high-speed dispersion, selenol-modified silica and phosphonate-modified nano-titanium dioxide are uniformly dispersed under the action of a dispersant. The silanol hydroxyl groups (-Si-OH) on the surface of the nanoparticles combine with the hydrophilic groups of the dispersant to form a stable colloidal system, preventing filler agglomeration. In the mixing stage, the acrylate double bonds in the selenol-polyurethane acrylate hybrid and the phosphonate-fluorosilicone polyurethane acrylate undergo a prepolymerization reaction with the hydroxyl groups in the aqueous polyurethane dispersion to form a preliminary cross-linked network. The organosilicon defoamer adsorbs and breaks up bubbles in the system, reducing coating defects. The aliphatic isocyanate reacts with the hydroxyl groups or surface active sites in light calcium carbonate and talc to firmly anchor the filler in the polymer network, enhancing the mechanical strength of the coating. During viscosity adjustment, deionized water adjusts the fluidity of the system, making the coating easy to spread during construction; sieving removes large, undispersed particles, ensuring uniform coating thickness. Ultimately, the components work together through chemical bonds (such as urethane bonds and covalent bonds) and physical interactions (such as van der Waals forces) to form a multi-layered anti-fouling structure characterized by "low surface energy, micro-nano roughness, and strong interfacial bonding," thereby achieving long-lasting anti-fouling and weather-resistant performance of the markings.
[0008] A further improvement is that, in step S1, the high-speed disperser rotates at 1200-1500 rpm, and the dispersion time is 25-30 min; the continued dispersion time is 15-20 min.
[0009] A further improvement is that in step S2, the stirring time is 30-40 minutes after heating to 60-62℃; the stirring time is 8-10 minutes after adding the silicone defoamer; and the stirring speed is 400-500 rpm for 15-20 minutes.
[0010] A further improvement is that in step S3, the viscosity is 800-1200 mPa·s and passes through a 150-155 mesh sieve.
[0011] A further improvement is that the preparation method of the selenol-polyurethane acrylate hybrid includes: A1, adding polytetrahydrofuran diol and 4,4'-dicyclohexylmethane diisocyanate to a four-necked flask, purging with nitrogen for protection, heating to 74-76°C, and adding dibutyltin dilaurate for reaction; A2, adding 2-hydroxyethylselenool and hydroquinone, and continuing the reaction; cooling to 54-56°C, adding 3-glycidyl etheroxypropyltrimethoxysilane, and stirring until the system is homogeneous; cooling to room temperature, and adding hydroxyethyl acrylate for end capping.
[0012] In this invention, the synthesis mechanism of the selenol-polyurethane acrylate hybrid includes: polytetrahydrofuran diol and 4,4'-dicyclohexylmethane diisocyanate react under nitrogen protection and heated, where the isocyanate group (-NCO) undergoes a stepwise addition reaction with the hydroxyl group (-OH) of the polyol to form a polyurethane segment containing a urethane bond (-NH-CO-O-). During this process, dibutyltin dilaurate acts as a catalyst, lowering the activation energy and accelerating the growth of the polyurethane chain. The subsequently added 2-hydroxyethylselenool contains a selenol group (-SeH), whose hydroxyl group continues to undergo an addition reaction with the unreacted isocyanate group, introducing the selenol group into the polyurethane segment to form a selenol-containing functional end. The 3-glycidyl etheroxypropyltrimethoxysilane added after cooling contains epoxy groups (-O-), which can undergo cross-linking reactions with hydroxyl or urethane bonds in the polyurethane segments, enhancing intermolecular forces. Simultaneously, the siloxane segments of the silane (-Si(CH3)2O-) can form covalent bonds (such as -Si-O-Si-) with the silanol groups (-Si-OH) on the surface of the subsequently added nano-silica, achieving a strong bond between the polymer and the nanofiller. Finally, the added hydroxyethyl acrylate contains acrylate double bonds (-COO-CH=CH2), whose hydroxyl groups react with the remaining isocyanate groups, introducing the double bonds into the system and providing active sites for subsequent photocuring and cross-linking.
[0013] A further improvement is that the reaction time in step A1 is 2.5-3 hours.
[0014] A further improvement is that in step A2, the reaction continues for 3.5-4 hours, and the stirring time is 1.5-2 hours.
[0015] A further improvement is that the preparation method of the phosphonate-fluorosilicone polyurethane acrylate includes: B1, adding hexamethylene diisocyanate and polyethylene glycol to a four-necked flask, purging with nitrogen for protection, heating to 80-82°C, and adding dibutyltin dilaurate for reaction; B2, adding dimethyl methylphosphonate and p-tert-butylcatechol, and continuing the reaction; cooling to 60-62°C, adding 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyltriethoxysilane, and stirring the system until homogeneous; cooling to room temperature, and adding hydroxyethyl acrylate for end capping.
[0016] In this invention, hexamethylene diisocyanate and polyethylene glycol react under nitrogen protection and heating. The isocyanate groups undergo stepwise addition with the hydroxyl groups of polyethylene glycol to form polyurethane segments containing urethane bonds. Dibutyltin dilaurate also acts as a catalyst to accelerate the reaction. Subsequently added dimethyl methylphosphonate contains phosphonate groups (-OP(O)(OCH3)2), whose methoxy groups (-OCH3) react with the hydroxyl groups or urethane bonds in the polyurethane segments, introducing phosphonate groups into the segments and imparting low surface energy properties to the material. After cooling, 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyltriethoxysilane contains fluorosilicone segments (-Si(CH3)2O-CF2CF3), whose ethoxy groups (-OCH2CH3) hydrolyze to generate silanol groups (-Si-OH), which can crosslink with the hydroxyl groups or urethane bonds in the polyurethane segments. Simultaneously, the low surface energy properties of the fluorosilicone segments further enhance the hydrophobicity of the coating. The final addition of hydroxyethyl acrylate introduces acrylate double bonds into the system through the reaction of hydroxyl groups with the remaining isocyanate groups. Together with the double bonds in the selenol-polyurethane acrylate hybrid, it provides crosslinking activity for photocuring.
[0017] The further improvement is that in step B1, the reaction time is 2-4 hours; in step B2, the reaction time is 4-6 hours; and the stirring time is 2-4 hours.
[0018] The present invention also provides an anti-fouling road marking composition based on hydrophobic nanomaterials prepared by the preparation method described above. The anti-fouling road marking composition based on hydrophobic nanomaterials comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: selenol-modified silica: 250-400 parts by weight; phosphonate-modified nano-titanium dioxide: 150-250 parts by weight; selenol-polyurethane acrylate hybrid: 120-280 parts by weight; phosphonate-fluorosilicone polyurethane acrylate: 100-220 parts by weight; waterborne polyurethane dispersion: 300-450 parts by weight; dispersant: 15-35 parts by weight; organosilicon defoamer: 8-20 parts by weight; aliphatic isocyanate: 50-100 parts by weight; light calcium carbonate: 200-350 parts by weight; talc: 80-150 parts by weight.
[0019] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: Road markings, exposed to the outdoors for extended periods, are prone to fading and becoming ineffective due to the adhesion of contaminants such as dust and oil. Traditional materials are easily wetted and adhered to by these substances, exhibiting insufficient resistance to dirt accumulation. This invention introduces hydrophobic nanomaterials with a finely textured surface into the coating, creating a structure resembling "micro-pits" on the surface. Simultaneously, the material itself possesses properties that prevent it from being wetted by water or oil. When contaminants fall onto the coating, they have difficulty penetrating these textured structures and are easily washed away by rainwater. Even after prolonged use, the coating surface maintains good resistance to dirt accumulation, effectively preserving the clarity of the markings.
[0020] In traditional road markings, nanofillers often detach due to poor adhesion to the coating, leading to coating damage and reduced stain resistance. In this invention, a specially modified polymer forms a tight chemical bond with the nanofillers, acting like an "invisible adhesive" to firmly fix the fillers within the coating. Even under prolonged rain or vehicle pressure, the fillers are less likely to detach, maintaining the integrity of the coating and resulting in a more durable and stable stain resistance.
[0021] In outdoor environments, factors such as ultraviolet radiation and de-icing agents can accelerate material aging, causing the coating to become brittle or its surface energy to rebound, leading to the re-adsorption of pollutants. The special polymer used in this invention contains functional segments with strong weather resistance (such as phosphorus- and fluorine-containing segments), which can effectively resist the decomposition and oxidation reactions of ultraviolet radiation, slowing down the aging process. Simultaneously, the coating's internal cross-linking reaction forms a dense network structure, acting like a "protective net" to prevent the penetration of moisture and corrosive substances, maintaining the coating's flexibility and strength. Even after long-term use, the coating maintains a smooth surface, is not prone to pollutant adhesion, extends the lifespan of the road markings, and reduces maintenance requirements.

[0051] III. Performance Testing The anti-fouling road marking compositions prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 were subjected to performance tests according to the following methods: 1. Stain Resistance Test (Static Contact Angle Method): The compositions of each example and comparative example were uniformly coated onto a clean glass plate (50mm × 50mm, 2mm thickness) and dried at room temperature for 24 hours to form a cured coating. Using a contact angle meter (model: DSA100), 5μL of deionized water (polar contaminant simulation solution) and 5μL of machine oil (non-polar contaminant simulation solution) were added respectively, and the static contact angle (θ) of the droplets on the coating surface was measured. The average value of 3 measurements was taken.
[0052] 2. Weather Resistance Test: The cured coating sample (100mm×100mm) was placed in a UV aging tester (model: Q-Lab QUV / se) and subjected to aging tests according to GB / T 1865-2009 standard (irradiance 0.89W / m², wavelength 340nm, black panel temperature 65℃, condensation cycle 4 hours / day). After aging for 500 hours, the sample was removed. The gloss at 60° before and after aging was measured using a gloss meter (model: BYK-GardnerMicro-Gloss 60°), and the gloss loss rate was calculated (gloss loss rate = (initial gloss - gloss after aging) / initial gloss × 100%). At the same time, the water contact angle after aging was remeasured using a contact angle meter.
[0053] 3. Adhesion test (cross-cut test): According to GB / T 9286-1998 standard, use a cross-cut tester (1mm spacing) to cut a grid on the surface of the cured coating. Apply 3M 600 tape to the grid area, and quickly peel off the tape vertically. Observe the coating peeling and evaluate the adhesion level (Level 0: no peeling; Level 1: ≤5% peeling; Level 2: 5%-15% peeling; Level 3: 15%-35% peeling; Level 4: 35%-65% peeling; Level 5: >65% peeling).
[0054] 4. Hardness test (pencil hardness method): According to GB / T 6739-2006 standard, use a pencil hardness tester (model: Mitsubishi UNI-HARDNESS Tester) to scratch the surface of the cured coating at a 45° angle and a pressure of 1kg, and record the hardest pencil model (such as Mitsubishi 9H, 7H, 5H, etc.) that can scratch the coating.

Performance test results: Table 1: Performance test results of each embodiment and comparative example Group Example 1 Example 2 Example 3 Comparative Example 1 Comparative Example 2 Comparative Example 3 Initial water contact angle (°) 168 172 165 135 142 128 Initial engine oil contact angle (°) 155 158 150 120 128 115 Water contact angle after UV aging for 500h (°) 152 155 148 110 115 98 Gloss loss rate (%) 2.1 1.8 2.5 18.5 15.2 22.7 Adhesion rating 0 level 0 level 0 level 2 level 1 level 3 level Pencil hardness 3H 3H 3H 2B 2H HB As shown in Table 1, Examples 1-3 significantly solved the technical problems of weak anti-fouling properties, filler detachment, and insufficient weather resistance in existing road markings by introducing two modified compounds: selenol-polyurethane acrylate hybrid and phosphonate-fluorosilicone polyurethane acrylate. Regarding anti-fouling properties, the initial water contact angle (165-172°) and oil contact angle (150-158°) of Examples 1-3 were much higher than those of Comparative Examples 1-3 (water contact angle 128-142°, oil contact angle 115-128°). Furthermore, after 500 hours of UV aging, the water contact angle only decreased by 16-17° (compared to a decrease of 25-30° in the comparative examples). This indicates that the modified compounds, by reducing surface energy and constructing a micro-nano rough structure, formed a dual anti-fouling interface of "low surface energy, micro-nano roughness," effectively resisting the adhesion of pollutants such as oil and dust. Regarding the issue of filler detachment, the adhesion grades of Examples 1-3 were all 0 (no detachment), and the pencil hardness reached 3H or higher. However, due to the lack of strong covalent bonds (such as selenol-oxygen bonds, phosphonate-silicon bonds) between the modified polymer and the nanofiller, the adhesion grades of Comparative Examples 1-3 dropped to 1-3 (partial detachment), and the pencil hardness was only 2B-HB. This indicates that the modified compound significantly enhanced the interfacial bonding force between the filler and the coating by forming covalent bonds with the nanofiller (such as selenol-modified silica, phosphonate-modified nano titanium dioxide), thus preventing filler detachment. Regarding weather resistance, the gloss loss rate after aging in Examples 1-3 was <2.6% (comparative examples 15-23%), and the surface energy recovery was small (contact angle decrease of only 16-17°). This indicates that the weather-resistant design of the phosphonate segment (-OP(O)(OCH3)2) and the fluorosilicone segment (-Si(CH3)2O-CF2CF3) effectively inhibited UV-induced aging degradation, delayed the recovery of coating surface energy and the re-adhesion of contaminants, and extended the service life of the marking. In summary, Examples 1-3, through the synergistic effect of the two modified compounds, comprehensively solved the core problems of traditional markings, such as weak dirt resistance, filler detachment, and insufficient weather resistance.
