Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of marine antifouling materials, in particular to a radiation-resistant antifouling coating and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Marine biofouling, also known as marine sessile organisms, is a general term for animals, plants and microorganisms that attach to and inhabit ships and various marine engineering equipment in the marine environment, causing economic losses and biological hazards. Antifouling paint is a coating used to prevent marine organisms from attaching, eroding and fouling, and to maintain the cleanliness of submerged structures such as ships, piers and sonars. It is applied on top of the rust-proof primer and uses the antifouling agent in the coating to slowly penetrate the surface of the coating film to form an antifouling surface layer, and uses the low surface energy of the coating to kill or disperse marine organisms (such as barnacles and oysters) attached to the coating film. Antifouling paint can be divided into contact type, dissolution type, diffusion type and self-polishing type, and is mainly used in antifouling engineering of ships, marine structures and pipelines in seawater and freshwater. So far, applying antifouling paint is still the most economical and effective measure to prevent marine organisms from attaching.

[0003] With the emergence of various emerging marine equipment, such as offshore floating nuclear power plants, the antifouling paint used may be exposed to gamma radiation. Generally, coatings will produce adverse reactions such as blistering, peeling, discoloration, chalking and cracking under radiation, which will damage the protected structure and affect its service life. The existing antifouling paint does not have radiation resistance, and the antifouling function may quickly fail under radiation conditions, resulting in the attachment of a large number of fouling organisms on the surface of the equipment and facilities, affecting normal service. Traditional nuclear radiation-resistant coatings are commonly used in strong radiation environments such as nuclear power plants, reactors and nuclear fuel reprocessing plants as protective coatings to prevent substrate materials from being damaged by radiation. The current research focus of radiation-resistant coatings is on radiation-resistant anticorrosion coatings, such as the high-solid-content bottom-surface-integrated coating resistant to radiation and corrosion and its preparation method disclosed in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN103351788A, the radiation-resistant polyamide decentralized epoxy paint and its preparation method disclosed in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN114773964A, and the two-component waterborne epoxy radiation-resistant coating for nuclear power plants disclosed in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN101781509A. The implementation of the above technologies is based on epoxy polymer resins, which have good effects on radiation resistance and corrosion resistance, but epoxy resins do not have self-polishing function and cannot achieve long-term stable release of antifouling agents, making it difficult to solve the problem of underwater marine biofouling. At present, there is no related report on radiation-resistant antifouling coatings. Therefore, it is urgent to modify the antifouling coating with radiation resistance to make it have both antifouling and radiation resistance, and to achieve efficient protection of marine engineering equipment. SUMMARY

[0009] Further, the dissolution aid is selected from one or a mixture of both of a primary rosin and a hydrogenated rosin. Specifically, the primary rosin is Yoshida Chemical AT01 primary rosin, and the hydrogenated rosin is Yoshida SZ8104 hydrogenated rosin. Preferably, the dissolution aid is selected from the hydrogenated rosin.

Preferably, the radiation resistant filler is composed of iron oxide red, mica powder, and flaky graphite powder, and the mass ratio of the iron oxide red, mica powder, and flaky graphite powder is (2-4):(4-8):(5-8).

[0011] Further, the antifouling agent is selected from a mixture of at least three materials of cuprous oxide, bromopyrrole nitrile, copper pyrithione, zineb, diuron, and 4,5-dichloro-N-octyl-4-isothiazoline-3-ketone (DCOIT). Preferably, the antifouling agent is composed of cuprous oxide, copper pyrithione, zineb, and 4,5-dichloro-N-octyl-4-isothiazoline-3-ketone, and the mass ratio of the cuprous oxide, copper pyrithione, zineb, and 4,5-dichloro-N-octyl-4-isothiazoline-3-ketone is (30-40):(3-8):(3-5):(1-2).

[0012] Further, the surface active agent includes a dispersant and a defoaming agent, and the mass ratio of the dispersant and the defoaming agent is (0.5-2):1. The dispersant is selected from a high molecular weight block copolymer solution containing a pigment affinity group (BYK-163), and the defoaming agent is selected from a bubble-breaking polymer and a polysiloxane solution (BYK-066N).

[0013] Further, the anti-settling aid is one or a mixture of two of polyamide wax and organic bentonite. Preferably, the anti-settling aid is composed of polyamide wax and organic bentonite, and the mass ratio of polyamide wax to organic bentonite is (0.5-2):1. Specifically, the polyamide wax is Itoh polyamide wax T-550F, and the organic bentonite is Chang'an Renheng easily dispersible organic bentonite CLAYMINTON 70.

[0014] Further, the solvent is one or a mixture of two or more of xylene, trimethylbenzene and n-butanol.

[0015] In a second aspect, the present application provides a preparation method of the radiation-resistant antifouling coating.

[0016] The preparation method of the radiation-resistant antifouling coating comprises the following steps:

[0017] S1. A specified amount of a dissolution aid is added to a part of the solvent to prepare a dissolution aid solution by high-speed stirring; and flaky graphite in the radiation-resistant filler is added to the dissolution aid solution to prepare a dissolution aid-radiation-resistant filler mixture by high-speed stirring;

[0018] S2. The radiation-resistant antifouling resin, the dispersant, the defoaming agent and the anti-settling aid are added to the dissolution aid-radiation-resistant filler mixture, and the mixture is stirred and dispersed at a rotation speed of 600-800 r / min for 25-30 min to obtain a mixed material;

[0019] S3. Another part of the solvent is added to the mixed material obtained in step S2, and the remaining radiation-resistant filler and the antifouling agent are added, and the fineness is controlled to be ≤80 μm by high-speed dispersion, and then the remaining solvent is added, and the mixture is stirred uniformly to obtain the radiation-resistant antifouling coating.

[0020] Further, in step S3, the high-speed dispersion condition is that the mixture is stirred and dispersed at a rotation speed of 1000-1200 r / min for 30-40 min.

[0021] The present application has the following beneficial effects.

[0022] The radiation-resistant antifouling resin used in the present application is a silane ester methacrylic resin series (hereinafter referred to as the radiation-resistant antifouling resin). Compared with the traditional antifouling resin, the radiation-resistant antifouling resin can effectively coordinate the hydrolysis of silane ester and the solubility of polymer in the self-polishing resin through chain breaking by degradation while maintaining the side chain silane ester hydrolysis characteristics. The unique methyl silane ester structure can slowly hydrolyze in seawater to achieve a long-term stable low polishing rate and realize long-term marine biofouling protection. The radiation-resistant benzene ring in the resin structure and the radiation-resistant powder mica powder and flaky graphite powder materials in the coating can improve the radiation resistance. However, the flaky graphite powder has poor wettability, which affects the dispersibility and the overall storage stability of the coating. During the preparation of the test sample in the laboratory, it was accidentally found that a stable hydrogenated rosin-flaky graphite mixed liquid can be prepared by melting the hydrogenated rosin with xylene and then adding flaky graphite powder for high-speed dispersion, and then the radiation-resistant antifouling coating can be prepared.
