[0045] The technical problem addressed in this application is as follows: Heat exchangers are core material components in air conditioner manufacturing. The mainstream heat exchanger is a tube-fin structure, with large-area metal heat dissipation fins covering the refrigerant piping. Corrosion products and stains accumulate on the fin surface, increasing thermal resistance and reducing airflow area, leading to reduced heat exchange efficiency and significantly increased air conditioning energy consumption. Related technologies employ an epoxy-based organic coating on the metal heat dissipation fins; however, epoxy systems have poor resistance to light aging and their corrosion resistance rapidly degrades during service. Another related technology uses a fluorine-containing organic coating, but fluorine-containing systems are expensive and not suitable for large-scale application. Furthermore, the fluorine-containing base coat is highly hydrophobic, resulting in poor compatibility with the hydrophilic top coat, leading to poor performance balance. In addition, the thermal conductivity of organic coatings is significantly lower than that of metal substrates; thicker coatings increase air conditioning energy consumption, leading to energy waste.

[0046] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this application proposes a coating comprising: a hydrophilic layer and a corrosion-resistant layer, wherein the corrosion-resistant layer is disposed on at least one surface of a substrate and between the hydrophilic layer and the substrate; wherein the raw material of the corrosion-resistant layer comprises a magnetically modified filler, the magnetically modified filler comprising a two-dimensional nanofiller, and magnetic nanoparticles loaded on at least one surface of the two-dimensional nanofiller.

[0047] It should be noted that the present invention uses an in-situ synthesis method to load magnetic nanoparticles onto the surface of two-dimensional nanofillers, i.e., nanosheets, to obtain magnetically modified fillers. These fillers can respond to magnetic fields and can be arranged under the guidance of magnetic fields. By controlling the direction of the magnetic field, most of the sheet structures of the magnetically modified fillers form an angle with the substrate surface, making the overall sheet structure formed by the magnetically modified fillers in the corrosion-resistant layer difficult to be corroded by water and oxygen, thus protecting the substrate surface.

[0048] In one specific embodiment, refer to Figure 1 The coating includes a first corrosion-resistant layer 201, a second corrosion-resistant layer 202, a first hydrophilic layer 301, and a second hydrophilic layer 302; wherein the first corrosion-resistant layer 201 and the second corrosion-resistant layer 202 are disposed on two opposing surfaces of the substrate 100; the first hydrophilic layer 301 is disposed on the surface of the first corrosion-resistant layer 201 away from the substrate 100, and the second hydrophilic layer 302 is disposed on the surface of the second corrosion-resistant layer 202 away from the substrate 100.

[0049] It should be noted that the coating in this invention adopts a structure combining a corrosion-resistant layer and a hydrophilic layer, which has excellent anti-corrosion and hydrophilic properties, and can extend its service life. The inventors have discovered that by setting a hydrophilic layer on the surface of the corrosion-resistant layer, the hydrophilic effect and long-term hydrophilicity of the coating can be improved, and the detergency can be enhanced; it can also reduce the roughness of the side of the coated aluminum foil, reducing the adhesion of oil fumes and dust.

[0050] In one embodiment, the two-dimensional nanofiller includes at least one of graphene-based nanosheets, nanosheet silicates, nanosheet phosphates, nanosheet sulfides, nanosheet oxides, and nanosheet nitrides; wherein the graphene-based nanosheets can be graphene, graphene oxide, reduced graphene oxide, aminated graphene, fluorinated graphene, hydrogenated graphene, etc.; the two-dimensional nanofiller also includes other two-dimensional sheet materials that can be surface modified.

[0051] In one embodiment, the magnetic nanoparticles include at least one of elemental iron, cobalt, nickel, and alloy nanoparticles, nano-iron oxide particles, nano-sized ferrite particles, and nano-sized neodymium iron boron particles.

[0052] In one embodiment, the magnetic nanoparticles in the magnetically modified filler have a particle size of 10 nm to 50 nm. It is understood that the particle size of the magnetic nanoparticles can be any of 10 nm, 11 nm, 15 nm, 20 nm, 25 nm, 30 nm, 40 nm, or 50 nm, and any particle size falling within the above range is acceptable.

[0053] In one embodiment, the two-dimensional nanofiller in the magnetically modified filler has a sheet diameter of 0.5 μm to 10 μm. It is understood that the sheet diameter of the two-dimensional nanofiller refers to the size of the filler in the two-dimensional planar direction. The sheet diameter of the two-dimensional nanofiller can be any one of 0.5 μm, 0.6 μm, 1 μm, 1.5 μm, 2 μm, 3 μm, 5 μm, 7 μm, or 10 μm, and any size falling within the above range is acceptable.

[0054] In one embodiment, the weight ratio of two-dimensional nanofiller to magnetic nanoparticles in the magnetically modified filler is 1:(1~10).

[0055] It should be noted that the two-dimensional nanofiller in this invention is used for loading magnetic nanoparticles and for them to contact and overlap on the substrate surface to form an effective sheet structure. By limiting the particle size of the magnetic nanoparticles, the sheet size of the two-dimensional nanofiller, and the ratio of their amounts, each two-dimensional nanofiller can more uniformly load magnetic nanoparticles, thereby making the magnetization intensity of each magnetically modified filler more similar and improving the uniformity of the corrosion-resistant layer.

[0056] In one embodiment, the surface of the magnetically modified filler is further coated with at least one polymer shell. In a specific embodiment, the polymer shell includes at least one of polydopamine and polysiloxane. It should be noted that the present invention forms a core-shell structure filler by coating the surface of magnetically modified particles with a polydopamine shell or a polysiloxane shell through in-situ polymerization or solution blending. Polydopamine has abundant polar groups such as hydroxyl and amino groups, which can form hydrogen bonds or covalent bonds with polar matrices such as epoxy resin and polyurethane, reducing interfacial energy and exhibiting adhesion and secondary reaction activity. It can be further grafted with functional molecules such as conductive polymers and flame retardants to achieve multifunctionality; the formed shell has good hydrophilicity. Polysiloxane contains silicon-oxygen bonds, exhibiting strong hydrophobicity and stability, giving the filler good high-temperature resistance and improving the thermal stability of the composite material.

[0057] In one embodiment, the weight ratio of polymer shell material to magnetically modified filler is (5~20):(2~11).

[0058] In one embodiment, the thickness of the polymer shell is 2 nm to 10 nm.

[0059] By defining the above technical features, a functional shell of suitable thickness is formed on the surface of the magnetically modified filler of the polymer shell material, which can isolate moisture, oxygen or corrosive media, prevent the magnetic particles from oxidizing or degrading, and extend the service life of the material without affecting the magnetization performance.

[0060] In one embodiment, the lamellar filler in the corrosion-resistant layer is inclined close to the surface of the substrate, and the two-dimensional plane of the lamellar filler forms a first angle with the surface of the substrate.

[0061] By adopting the above technical solution, when the two-dimensional plane of the lamellar filler forms an angle with the substrate surface, on the one hand, it effectively extends the corrosion path, greatly increases the total resistance of the corrosion circuit, and leads to a significant reduction in corrosion current; on the other hand, due to the labyrinth effect, oxygen is difficult to reach the substrate surface, resulting in strong cathodic polarization, and the corrosion potential of the entire system will shift negatively, greatly delaying the activation time of the metal under the coating.

[0062] In one embodiment, the first angle formed between the two-dimensional plane of the sheet-like filler and the surface of the substrate is no greater than 45°.

[0063] In one embodiment, the two-dimensional plane of the lamellar filler, which accounts for no less than 80% of the amount in the corrosion-resistant layer, forms the first included angle with the surface of the substrate.

[0064] In a preferred embodiment, the first angle formed between the two-dimensional plane of the lamellar filler, which accounts for no less than 80% of the amount in the corrosion-resistant layer, and the surface of the substrate is no greater than 45°.

[0065] It should be noted that by controlling the angle between the sheets of most magnetically modified fillers and the macroscopic surface of the substrate to be less than 45°, the transmission path of corrosive media can be made longer and more tortuous, thereby enhancing the labyrinth effect. It can also greatly compress the thickness of the corrosion-resistant layer, thereby significantly reducing the overall thickness of the coating, which is beneficial to maximizing the preservation of the thermal conductivity of the substrate.

[0066] In one embodiment, the raw material for the corrosion-resistant layer includes 0.05 wt% to 2 wt% of magnetically modified filler and the balance being a matrix material; the matrix material includes an aqueous resin. In a specific embodiment, the aqueous resin includes at least one of an aqueous fluorocarbon resin, an aqueous polyester resin, an aqueous silicone resin, an aqueous acrylic resin, a polyurethane resin, a modified polyurethane resin, an epoxy resin, a modified epoxy resin, and a polyamide resin.

[0067] It is understood that the coating in this invention only requires 0.05wt%~2wt% of magnetically modified filler for a low load to achieve a high level of magnetron-controlled directional barrier coating, resulting in lower raw material and preparation costs. Furthermore, the substrate material of the corrosion-resistant layer is a water-based resin containing a large number of polar groups, exhibiting good compatibility and adhesion with the hydrophilic layer, further enhancing the coating's protective effect on the substrate.

[0068] In one embodiment, the raw material for the hydrophilic layer includes a first acrylate monomer containing a polar group.

[0069] It is understandable that the base material of the hydrophilic layer is an acrylate copolymer, and the acrylate monomers that form the copolymer all contain polar groups, so the acrylate copolymer has extremely strong polarity.

[0070] In one specific embodiment, the first acrylate monomer includes at least one of hydroxyacrylate monomers and carboxyacrylate monomers. It is understood that in this embodiment, the base material of the hydrophilic layer is obtained by copolymerization of hydroxyacrylate monomers and / or carboxyacrylate monomers.

[0071] Furthermore, the hydroxyacrylate monomer can be at least one of hydroxyethyl acrylate, hydroxypropyl acrylate, hydroxybutyl acrylate, hydroxyhexyl acrylate, hydroxyethyl methacrylate, and hydroxypropyl methacrylate, including but not limited to the hydroxyacrylate monomers listed above. Furthermore, the carboxyacrylate monomer includes at least one of acrylic acid and methacrylic acid, including but not limited to the carboxyacrylate monomers listed above. By adopting the above technical solution, strong hydrophilic functional groups and reactive active sites are introduced into the hydrophilic layer. Through chemical means, strong hydrophilic groups are anchored in the coating, and a high-strength cross-linked network is constructed, resulting in a high-performance, long-life hydrophilic coating.

[0072] In one embodiment, the hydrophilic layer comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: first acrylate monomer: 10 to 40 parts; additives: 0.5 to 2 parts; initiator: 0.5 to 3 parts.

[0073] It is understood that initiators include, but are not limited to, persulfates or azo compounds. Additives include at least one of surfactants, defoamers, leveling agents, and dispersants. By adding these additives, the surface tension and uniformity of the coating formed by the paint can be improved, thereby forming a high-quality coating. In a specific embodiment, the surfactant can be sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate, sodium dodecyl sulfate, or sodium dodecyl sulfate, including but not limited to the surfactants listed above. In a specific embodiment, the defoamer can be a silicone defoamer or a polyether defoamer, including but not limited to the defoamers listed above. In a specific embodiment, the dispersant can be a sodium polycarboxylate dispersant, an ammonium polyacrylate dispersant, or a silicone dispersant, including but not limited to the dispersants listed above.

[0074] Further, the hydrophilic layer comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: a first acrylate monomer: 10 to 40 parts; a second acrylate monomer: 5 to 40 parts; an auxiliary agent: 0.5 to 2 parts; an initiator: 0.5 to 3 parts; and water: 30 to 50 parts; wherein the second acrylate monomer comprises at least one of amino acrylate monomer, phosphate acrylate monomer, amide acrylate monomer, and epoxy acrylate monomer.

[0075] It should be noted that the second acrylate monomer introduces new, more reactive polar groups into the polymerization system, which can play a synergistic role, significantly improve the performance of the hydrophilic layer, and also facilitate further cross-linking between the hydrophilic layer and the waterborne resin matrix material in the corrosion-resistant layer.

[0076] In one embodiment, the substrate includes any one of pure aluminum, aluminum alloy, zinc alloy, pure copper, copper alloy, and stainless steel.

[0077] In one embodiment, the coating amount of the corrosion-resistant layer is 0.3 g / m². 2 ~0.8g / m 2 For example, the coating amount of the corrosion-resistant layer can be 0.3 g / m². 2 0.31g / m 2 0.4g / m 2 0.5g / m 2 0.8g / m 2 This invention does not impose specific limitations; anything falling within the above scope is acceptable.

[0078] In one embodiment, the coating amount of the hydrophilic layer is 0.5 g / m². 2 ~1.3g / m 2For example, the coating amount of the hydrophilic layer can be 0.5 g / m². 2 0.51g / m 2 0.6g / m 2 0.8g / m 2 1g / m 2 1.3g / m 2 This invention does not impose specific limitations; anything falling within the above scope is acceptable.

[0079] In one embodiment, the dry film thickness of the corrosion-resistant layer is 1μm to 2μm; for example, the dry film thickness of the corrosion-resistant layer can be 1μm, 1.1μm, 1.2μm, 1.5μm, or 2μm. The present invention does not make specific limitations, and any thickness within the above range is acceptable.

[0080] In a preferred embodiment, in the corrosion-resistant layer, magnetically modified filler is deposited on the side close to the substrate to form a lamellar structure. By controlling the proportion of magnetically modified filler with an angle of less than 45° between the two-dimensional nanofiller and the macroscopic surface of the substrate to exceed 80%, the dry film thickness of the corrosion-resistant layer is maintained at 0.8 μm to 1.6 μm. By employing the above-mentioned technical means, the corrosion resistance of the coating can be further enhanced, while the overall thickness of the coating can be significantly reduced, which is beneficial to maximizing the preservation of the thermal conductivity of the heat exchanger fin substrate.

[0081] In one embodiment, the coating further includes a lubricating layer disposed on the surface of the hydrophilic layer away from the anti-corrosion layer. (See reference...) Figure 2 The coating includes a first corrosion-resistant layer 201, a second corrosion-resistant layer 202, a first hydrophilic layer 301, a second hydrophilic layer 302, a first lubricating layer 401, and a second lubricating layer 402; wherein the first corrosion-resistant layer 201 and the second corrosion-resistant layer 202 are disposed on two opposing surfaces of the substrate 100; the first hydrophilic layer 301 is disposed on the surface of the first corrosion-resistant layer 201 away from the substrate 100, and the second hydrophilic layer 302 is disposed on the surface of the second corrosion-resistant layer 202 away from the substrate 100; the first lubricating layer 401 is disposed on the surface of the first hydrophilic layer 301 away from the substrate 100, and the second lubricating layer 402 is disposed on the surface of the second hydrophilic layer 302 away from the substrate 100.

[0082] In one specific embodiment, the material of the lubricating layer can be a conventional paint used for surface coatings on metal substrates. In this embodiment, a water-based self-lubricating hydrophilic coating, specifically model HW6550, purchased from Guangdong Huigu Chemical Co., Ltd., is used. After being stirred evenly, it is coated on the surface of the hydrophilic layer away from the substrate. After curing and cross-linking, a lubricating layer is formed.

[0083] In one embodiment, the coating amount of the lubricating layer is 0.05 g / m. 2 ~0.5g / m 2For example, the coating amount of the lubricating layer can be 0.05 g / m. 2 0.1g / m 2 0.2g / m 2 0.3g / m 2 0.5g / m 2 This invention does not impose specific limitations; anything falling within the above scope is acceptable.

[0084] It should be noted that the lubricating layer needs to have a specific thickness to better protect the hydrophilic and anti-corrosion layers, thereby extending the service life of the substrate. When the coating amount on one side of the lubricating layer is too low, the lubrication effect of the lubricating layer is relatively poor; when the coating amount on one side of the lubricating layer is too high, the thickness of the lubricating layer is relatively thick, which will reduce the hydrophilicity of the coating and result in relatively poor performance.

[0085] In one embodiment, the lubricating layer includes at least one of an ultraviolet absorber, a light stabilizer, and a quencher. In a specific embodiment, the lubricating layer includes at least one of 0.1 wt% to 1 wt% of an ultraviolet absorber, 0.1 wt% to 1 wt% of a light stabilizer, and 0.1 wt% to 1 wt% of a quencher.

[0086] It is understandable that adding the above-mentioned amount of anti-aging agent to the corrosion-resistant layer, lubrication layer or hydrophilic layer can significantly improve the weather resistance of the coated aluminum foil, make the coated aluminum foil have better continuous hydrophilicity or corrosion resistance, and significantly extend its service life.

[0087] The present invention also proposes a method for preparing the above-mentioned coating, comprising the following steps: S1. A corrosion-resistant layer is formed by coating at least one surface of the substrate; S2. A hydrophilic layer is coated on the surface of the corrosion-resistant layer formed in step S1 to complete the preparation of the coating.

[0088] In one specific embodiment, the method for preparing the above coating includes the following steps: S1. A corrosion-resistant layer is formed by coating at least one surface of the substrate; S2. A hydrophilic layer is formed by coating the surface of the corrosion-resistant layer formed in step S1. S3. A lubricating layer is formed by coating the surface of the hydrophilic layer formed in step S2, thus completing the preparation of the coating.

[0089] In one embodiment, the method for preparing the magnetically modified filler in the corrosion-resistant layer includes the following steps: dispersing two-dimensional nanomaterials in a solvent, adding a magnetic precursor and stirring, adjusting the pH to 7-10 under a protective atmosphere, reacting at 20°C-80°C, filtering, washing the filter residue, and obtaining the magnetically modified filler.

[0090] It should be noted that in this embodiment, magnetically modified fillers are prepared by in-situ co-precipitation, which hydrolyzes metal ions and co-precipitates them into magnetic oxides, thereby growing magnetic nanoparticles in-situ on the surface of two-dimensional nanosheets to form magnetically modified fillers.

[0091] In one specific embodiment, the magnetic precursor comprises an ferric salt and a ferrous salt, wherein the molar ratio of ferric ions in the ferric salt to ferrous ions in the ferrous salt is (2~4):1. It is understood that by controlling the ratio of ferric ions to ferrous ions in the magnetic precursor, the crystal structure and phase purity can be further controlled, the formation of Fe(OH)₂ impurity phase can be suppressed, and the Fe content can be reduced. 2+ Oxidation loss during the reaction process; secondly, it can also regulate the particle size of magnetically modified particles. The inventors discovered during their research that Fe... 2+ An excessively high proportion will result in larger magnetically modified particles, increasing magnetic saturation strength but decreasing coercivity; Fe 3+ Increasing the proportion helps to obtain a smaller and more uniform particle size distribution.

[0092] In a preferred embodiment, the method for preparing the magnetically modified filler includes the following steps: Two-dimensional nanomaterials were dispersed in deionized water, a magnetic precursor was added and stirred, and ammonia was added dropwise under nitrogen protection to adjust the pH to 7-10. The reaction was carried out at 20℃-80℃ for 1-5 hours. The mixture was filtered, and the filter residue was washed to obtain magnetically modified filler. The magnetically modified filler was placed in an alkaline buffer solution, dopamine hydrochloride was added, and the mixture was stirred and reacted for 5-24 hours. The mixture was filtered, and the filter residue was washed to obtain polydopamine-coated magnetically modified filler.

[0093] It is understandable that a polydopamine shell is generated on the surface of the magnetically modified filler through the self-polymerization reaction of dopamine hydrochloride, which has good hydrophilicity and good compatibility with the matrix material of the corrosion-resistant layer.

[0094] In one embodiment, step S1, the method for preparing the corrosion-resistant layer includes the following steps: A corrosion-resistant coating is prepared by mixing magnetically modified filler with water-based resin, stirring, and degassing; the corrosion-resistant coating is then applied to the surface of a substrate and cured to form a corrosion-resistant layer.

[0095] In one specific embodiment, in step S1, at least two magnetic fields with different magnetic field strengths are applied to the corrosion-resistant layer during the curing process.

[0096] In another preferred embodiment, in step S1, during the curing process of the corrosion-resistant layer, at least three magnetic fields with different magnetic field strengths are applied, and the magnetic field strengths of the magnetic fields exhibit a gradient change trend.

[0097] It should be noted that the present invention mixes magnetically modified filler with water-based resin matrix to form a coating and applies it to form a coating layer; under the action of gradient magnetic field, the lamellar filler is induced to oriented and form a specific macroscopic angle with the substrate surface, and after curing, a dense "brick-mud" layered structure is constructed, so that the coating has excellent water vapor barrier, heat exchange performance and corrosion resistance.

[0098] In one embodiment, in step S1, during the curing process of the corrosion-resistant layer, a first magnetic field is applied for pre-curing, and then a second magnetic field is applied for thermal curing to complete the curing and form the coating.

[0099] In one embodiment, in step S1, the magnetic field direction of the first magnetic field and the magnetic field direction of the second magnetic field are parallel to the surface of the substrate to be coated.

[0100] In a preferred embodiment, the method for preparing the corrosion-resistant layer includes the following steps: A corrosion-resistant coating is applied to the surface of a substrate. A first magnetic field parallel to the surface of the substrate is applied and controlled to a magnitude of 0.5T~1T. The coating is then pre-cured at 20℃~50℃ for 0.1h~1h. Subsequently, a second magnetic field parallel to the surface is applied and controlled to a magnitude of 0.1T~0.5T. The coating is then heat-cured at 200℃~300℃ for 0.01h~0.5h to form a coating.

[0101] It is understood that this invention employs a staged curing mechanism: the pre-curing stage maintains the mobility of the filler, while the thermosetting stage locks the orientation structure through resin cross-linking; simultaneously, a strong magnetic field is applied during the pre-curing stage to achieve rapid orientation, and the magnetic field strength is reduced during the thermosetting stage to maintain coating stability. This keeps the included angle generally at a low level, fully utilizing the excellent barrier properties of two-dimensional materials to improve the shielding and barrier effects and labyrinth effect of the coating, further enhancing its corrosion resistance.

[0102] In one embodiment, step S2, the method for preparing the hydrophilic coating includes the following steps: mixing a first acrylate monomer, an additive and water, then mixing it with a second acrylate monomer, adding an initiator, heating to react, and then adjusting the solid content with water to obtain the hydrophilic coating.

[0103] In one specific embodiment, the hydrophilic coating is prepared by the following method: mixing a first acrylate monomer, an additive, and water at 50°C to 70°C, then mixing with a second acrylate monomer, adding an initiator, reacting at 80°C to 90°C for 30 to 50 minutes, and then adjusting the solid content to 20% to 40% with water to obtain the hydrophilic coating.

[0104] According to an embodiment of the present invention, when preparing a coating on a substrate surface, a corrosion-resistant coating is first applied as a base coat and cured to form a corrosion-resistant layer, followed by a hydrophilic coating and cured to form a hydrophilic layer, thereby forming a coating. The corrosion-resistant coating is cured under the influence of a magnetic field, while the hydrophilic coating undergoes thermal curing at a temperature of 215°C to 255°C, until the hydrophilic layer is completely hardened, thus completing the curing process.

[0105] In one specific embodiment, a lubricating layer coating is applied to the surface of the cured hydrophilic layer and then heat-cured until the lubricating layer is completely hardened, thus completing the curing process.

[0106] The present invention also proposes the application of the above coating in the field of heat exchangers, which can extend the service life of heat exchangers, improve the hydrophilicity effect and long-term hydrophilicity performance of heat exchangers, and improve the decontamination ability.

[0107] The present invention also proposes an air conditioner that includes the above-mentioned heat exchanger.

[0108] In one specific embodiment, the coating of the present invention is applied to the surface of heat exchanger fins and / or refrigerant pipes, especially the surface of heat exchanger fins of air conditioners. After long-term operation, the performance degradation of the air conditioner is smaller, resulting in a better user experience.

[0109] The present invention will be further illustrated below through specific embodiments: The raw materials, reagents, or devices used in the embodiments of this invention are all commercially available. Unless otherwise specified, this invention does not impose any restrictions on the source of raw materials.
