Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of light-cured printing ink, more particularly to a high-toughness and high-adhesion light-cured printing ink and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the vigorous development of iron or metal packaging, the application of printing ink is also more and more extensive. Among them, the light-cured printing ink is widely used in the printing industry due to its advantages of fast curing speed, environmental protection, energy saving, good economic benefit, etc.

[0003] There are two schemes in the prior art: Scheme 1) The phosphite ester acrylate compound is connected with a polysiloxane chain having a low surface tension, so that the monomer is floated to the surface of the coating / ink in the formula system. This technology inhibits oxygen inhibition, increases the probability of connecting the siloxane chain segment to the crosslinked network, improves the compatibility of the silicone component with the main acrylate, improves the overall firmness of the coating, and thus significantly improves the anti-fouling and wiping resistance.

[0004] Scheme 2) A chain extender with an acyl phosphine oxide structure is used in the raw material, so that the polyurethane acrylate oligomer has a self-initiating function. The polyurethane acrylate oligomer has a methyl methacrylate phosphate structure at both ends, so that the oligomer can be UV light-cured and has good adhesion to the substrate.

[0005] However, scheme 1 above uses an organic silicone chain segment and a phosphate structure, which makes the modified phosphate substance have the risk of floating and separating, and the improvement of the adhesion to the substrate is limited. Scheme 2 introduces a polyurethane component to improve toughness, but the polyurethane itself has a yellowing risk, which limits its application in applications requiring yellowing resistance. SUMMARY

[0006] In order to make the light-cured printing ink have high toughness and high adhesion to the surface of the metal substrate, the present application provides a high-toughness and high-adhesion light-cured printing ink and a preparation method thereof.

[0007] In a first aspect, the present application provides a high-toughness and high-adhesion light-cured printing ink, which adopts the following technical scheme: A high-toughness and high-adhesion light-cured printing ink comprises the following components in parts by weight: a reactive liquid rubber toughening agent 20-60 parts; an acrylate active monomer 40-80 parts; a photoinitiator 8-10 parts; a pigment 20-40 parts; a dispersant 1-2 parts; a leveling agent 0.5-2 parts; Defoaming agent 0.1-0.5 parts; The reactive liquid rubber toughening agent includes phosphoric acid ester modified liquid rubber and acrylic acid modified liquid rubber.

[0008] By adopting the technical scheme, the two modified liquid rubbers are used as the toughening components, the liquid rubber itself has excellent flexibility and aging resistance (anti-yellowing), the self-made phosphoric acid ester modified liquid rubber is introduced, the phosphoric acid ester groups in the molecular structure can form a firm chemical bond with the metal substrate surface, thereby significantly improving the adhesion of the ink coating to the iron / metal packaging. At the same time, the component “anchors” the phosphoric acid ester structure on the flexible long chain of the liquid rubber through chemical bonding, and the acrylic acid modified liquid rubber is used as a compatibilizer to improve the compatibility of the modified liquid rubber with the acrylic ester monomer, avoiding the risk of phase separation of the modified liquid rubber component. Finally, the acrylic ester groups participate in the photocuring crosslinking network, fundamentally solving the core defects of the prior art (solution 1) that the adhesion improvement is limited and the system stability is poor due to the physical migration and floating phase separation of the phosphoric acid ester or silicone chain segment. The phosphoric acid ester groups are firmly fixed in the crosslinking network, avoiding the weakening of the interfacial adhesion due to phase separation, and ensuring the durability and stability of the performance.

[0009] The acrylic acid modified liquid rubber ensures good compatibility with the acrylic ester main resin and participates in the formation of a uniform and dense crosslinking network, thereby maintaining high transparency and low yellowing index of the system while imparting high toughness and impact resistance to the coating. This overcomes the inherent yellowing risk of relying on polyurethane acrylate (which itself has a urethane bond and is prone to yellowing due to the generation of quinone structure under ultraviolet light aging) to toughen, and is particularly suitable for white or light-colored printing iron packaging with high color stability requirements. The flexible long chain of the liquid rubber acts as a “soft segment” dispersed in the “hard segment” crosslinking network of the acrylic ester, forming a rigid-flexible interpenetrating / half-interpenetrating network structure, so that the coating has high hardness and scratch resistance while having excellent flexibility, and can withstand subsequent canning, stamping and other processing deformations without cracking or peeling.

[0010] The phosphoric acid ester modified liquid rubber (providing adhesion and toughness), the acrylic acid modified liquid rubber (providing compatibility and toughness), and the acrylic ester active monomer (adjusting viscosity and constructing network) have a significant synergistic effect.

[0011] Optionally, the weight ratio of the phosphoric acid ester modified liquid rubber and the acrylic acid modified liquid rubber is (10-30):(10-30).

[0012] By adopting the technical scheme, the total amount and the ratio of the two modified rubbers in the ink determine the comprehensive performance of the coating.

[0013] Phosphate-modified rubber: excellent adhesion of the coating, but too much phosphate structure may slightly affect the system compatibility and transparency, and has potential impact on the color of light-colored paint. The improvement of toughness mainly depends on physical toughening, and the network integration is slightly weak.

[0014] Acrylate-modified rubber: excellent compatibility of the coating with the resin, uniform curing network, and significant improvement of toughness. However, the adhesion improvement to the metal substrate mainly depends on the overall improvement of the system, which is not as direct and efficient as the targeted adsorption of phosphate.

[0015] When the ratio of the two is within the scope of the present application, the performance can be perfectly coordinated: the phosphate-modified rubber provides strong adhesion in the form of "anchoring", and the acrylate-modified rubber ensures perfect "fusion" and toughening with the main body, together building a coating that is strong and tough, firmly adhered, and excellent in appearance.

[0016] Optionally, the preparation method of the phosphate-modified liquid rubber comprises the following steps: Add liquid rubber to an organic solvent and dissolve at a temperature of 110-130℃; Cool the system to 100-120℃, and uniformly drop the mixture of dibenzoyl peroxide, vinyl phosphonic acid, and organic solvent within 1-3 hours, After the dropping is completed, continue to react at 100-120℃ for 1-3 hours, and then remove the organic solvent by reduced pressure distillation to obtain the phosphate-modified liquid rubber.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution: instead of simply physically blending commercially available phosphate monomers and liquid rubber, two functional toughening agents with unique molecular structures are independently synthesized through specific chemical reactions: Under heating conditions, free radical initiators such as dibenzoyl peroxide (BPO) decompose to produce primary free radicals. The primary free radicals attack the active allyl hydrogen or double bond on the molecular chain of the liquid rubber to form macromolecular chain free radicals. The macromolecular radicals copolymerize with the vinyl phosphonic acid monomer, thereby grafting the vinyl phosphonic acid molecular chain to the liquid rubber skeleton through covalent bonds. The final product is a polymer in which phosphate groups are firmly connected to the long chain of flexible rubber through chemical bonds.

[0018] Optionally, in the phosphate-modified liquid rubber, the weight ratio of liquid rubber, dibenzoyl peroxide, and vinyl phosphonic acid is 100:0.5-1.8:5-18.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution: the ratio between liquid rubber, vinyl phosphonic acid, and free radical initiator is crucial, directly determining the grafting efficiency, molecular structure, and final function.

[0020] When the amount of vinyl phosphonic acid is too low, the phosphonate groups grafted onto the rubber chains are too few, resulting in that the modified product cannot provide sufficient adhesion promotion effect in the ink, and its performance approaches that of the unmodified liquid rubber.

[0021] When the amount is too high, it may cause excessive grafting or increase in the homopolymerization side reaction. Too many strong polar phosphonate groups may destroy the compatibility of the modified product with the main body resin of the ink, causing instability of the system, increase in viscosity, and even gel particles. At the same time, the excessive polar groups may increase the hydrophilicity of the coating, affecting its water resistance.

[0022] Optionally, the liquid rubber is one of styrene butadiene copolymer liquid rubber, polyisoprene liquid rubber, and polybutadiene liquid rubber.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution: the three kinds of liquid rubber contain two functional monomers during synthesis, and the main chain or end group after polymerization has more residual double bonds, which is more conducive to the grafting reaction of vinyl phosphonic acid.

[0024] Optionally, the preparation method of the acrylate modified liquid rubber comprises the following steps: Mixing the hydroxyl-terminated liquid rubber and the organic solvent, and heating to 110-130°C; Uniformly adding the acrylic acid at a speed of 1-3 hours, continuously reacting until no water is distilled out, which is regarded as the reaction endpoint, and then cooling to 100-120°C, and subsequently removing the organic solvent by reduced pressure distillation to obtain the acrylate modified liquid rubber.

[0025] By adopting the above technical solution: the hydroxyl group (-OH) at the end of the molecular chain of the hydroxyl-terminated liquid rubber undergoes dehydration reaction with the carboxyl group (-COOH) of the acrylic acid under high temperature conditions. The final product is a liquid rubber with an acrylate group (CH2=CH-COO-) at the end. The acrylate group has extremely high photo-curing reactivity.

[0026] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects are: 1. Excellent compatibility and network uniformity: the introduction of the acrylate end group through chemical modification greatly improves the compatibility of the non-polar liquid rubber with the polar acrylate main body resin. During curing, it can act as a reactive diluent and toughener, fully participates in the photo-curing crosslinking network, becomes part of the three-dimensional network, avoids the phase separation or performance degradation caused by non-reactive toughener, and thus improves the overall firmness of the coating.

[0027] 2. Intrinsic yellowing resistance: the hydroxyl-terminated liquid rubber skeleton is selected, and the molecular structure mainly consists of C-C and C=C bonds, without the urethane bond (-NH-COO-) that absorbs ultraviolet light to generate chromophores. Therefore, the yellowing problem is fundamentally eliminated.

[0028] Optionally, in the acrylate modified liquid rubber, the weight ratio of the hydroxyl-terminated liquid rubber and the acrylic acid is 100:0.5-1.5.

[0029] By adopting the above technical solution: the molar ratio of the hydroxyl-terminated liquid rubber and the acrylic acid is the core of controlling the modification degree and the final performance.

[0030] The amount of acrylic acid: the number of moles of acrylic acid needs to exceed the number of moles of hydroxyl, even if there is a small amount of unreacted components, it will participate in the double bond addition polymerization and crosslinking reaction in the subsequent photocuring process. When the amount is too low, the reaction is incomplete, the terminal hydroxyl group is not esterified by the acrylic acid, resulting in low photocuring activity of the modified product. In UV curing, it cannot effectively participate in the crosslinking network, and the toughening effect cannot be fully played. It is more like an inert plasticizer, which may cause the coating to be soft or not resistant to solvents.

[0031] Optionally, the hydroxyl-terminated liquid rubber is a hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene liquid rubber.

[0032] By adopting the above technical solution: the hydroxyl-terminated liquid rubber itself contains hydroxyl groups, which can form ester bonds with the carboxyl groups of the acrylic acid, so that the liquid rubber has groups that can undergo photo-initiated reactions.

[0033] Optionally, the acrylate active monomer is one or more of ethoxylated trimethylolpropane triacrylate, propoxylated glyceryl triacrylate, pentaerythritol triacrylate, polyethylene glycol diacrylate, and polyethylene glycol dimethacrylate. The photo initiator is one or more of 2-isopropylthioxanthone, diphenyl-(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl) phosphine oxide, 2-methyl-1-[4-(methylthio)phenyl]-2-morpholin-1-propanone, and 2,4-diethylthioxanthone. The pigment is one or more of permanent yellow, phthalocyanine blue, permanent red, high pigment carbon black, and titanium dioxide.

[0034] In a second aspect, the application provides a preparation method of a high-toughness high-adhesion photocured printing ink, which adopts the following technical solution: A preparation method of a high-toughness high-adhesion photocured printing ink, comprising the following steps: S1, first, the pigment, the dispersant and the acrylate active monomer are put into a sand mill, and sealed and ground for 30-40 min. After the fineness of the pigment reaches the required particle size of 1-6 μm, the color paste is obtained by filtration. S2, the phosphate modified liquid rubber, acrylic modified liquid rubber, photoinitiator, leveling agent, defoamer, ground color paste are put into the sealed stirring planetary mixer for dispersion and stirring, after uniform stirring, the material is filtered out, and sealed preservation is carried out, to obtain the tin printing ink.

[0035] In summary, the present application has the following beneficial effects: 1, the present application adopts phosphate modified liquid rubber with adhesion and toughness and acrylic modified liquid rubber with compatibility and toughness, and constructs an interpenetrating network structure with acrylic ester monomer; the structure makes the ink coating have high hardness, high adhesion, excellent flexibility, can withstand subsequent stamping, bending and forming processing of metal packaging without cracking and peeling, and has stable color and excellent yellowing resistance; 2, the present application is not simply physically blending commercially available phosphate ester monomer and liquid rubber, but independently synthesizing two functional toughening agents with unique molecular structure through specific chemical reaction; Phosphate modified liquid rubber is a polymer in which phosphate groups are firmly connected to the long chain of flexible rubber through chemical bonds, and the end or side chain has phosphate structure, which has good adhesion to metal; The introduction of acrylic ester end group in acrylic modified liquid rubber greatly improves the compatibility of non-polar liquid rubber and polar acrylic ester main resin, and when it is cured, it can act as a reactive diluent and toughening agent, fully participate in the photocuring crosslinking network, become part of the three-dimensional network, avoid the phase separation or performance degradation caused by non-reactive toughening agent, so as to improve the overall firmness of the ink; 3, the method of the present application, by introducing phosphate modified liquid rubber to provide adhesion and toughness, acrylic modified liquid rubber to provide compatibility and toughness, and acrylic ester active monomer to construct the crosslinking system, so that the ink has the advantages of strong adhesion, good toughness and not easy to yellow.

[0072] Performance testing The photocuring printing ink prepared in the examples and comparative examples was tested for the following properties, and the test results are recorded in Table 1.

[0073] Under the same conditions, the ink was printed on the same specification of tinplate (such as 1 mm thick), and the printing method used a laboratory printing ink printing proofing machine. The printed ink sample was cured on a photocuring device.

[0074] 1. Yellowing resistance: the printed and cured sample was placed in a halogen ultraviolet aging box with an irradiation intensity of 150 W / m 2The YI increment of the ink prepared by the method is compared with that before the UV aging, and the ink prepared by the method has a small YI increment and excellent yellowing resistance. 2. Flexibility: fold the sample by 180°, and observe the ink layer burst; 3. Adhesion of the coating film is determined according to GB / T 9286-1998; 4. Impact resistance: a falling weight impact tester is used, and the impact resistance is determined according to GB / T 20624.2-2006; Table 1: Performance test results Referring to Table 1, the YI increment of the ink prepared by the method in Examples 1-6 is extremely low, the ink has excellent yellowing resistance, and the flexibility, impact resistance and adhesion all meet the use requirements, and the ink can be used as an LED printing ink.
