Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the field of electrophoretic paint, and particularly relates to a self-repairing amino-graphene / MXene type cured cathodic electrophoretic paint and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Cathodic electrophoretic paint is an environmentally friendly coating with cationic water-soluble resin as the base material. Its coating process is essentially an electrochemical deposition: the workpiece acts as a cathode, and the cationic resin-pigment complex migrates to it in a direct current field and completes Faraday deposition to form a dense coating. Compared with traditional spraying, electrostatic spraying and dipping, it has the outstanding technical characteristics of high film density, excellent protection performance and good environmental compatibility, and has developed into a mainstream coating technology scheme for high protection demand scenarios in the industrial field. However, the cathodic electrophoretic paint on the market still has limited protection performance and other problems, which is difficult to meet the increasingly improved application requirements.

[0003] MXene is a kind of two-dimensional material with a graphite-like structure, which is composed of transition metal carbide, nitride or carbonitride. As a new type of material, MXene has ultra-high electrical conductivity and excellent mechanical properties, and its surface contains a large number of functional groups such as hydroxyl, oxygen and fluorine, so it has wide application prospects in the fields of energy storage, electromagnetic shielding and catalysis. SUMMARY

[0004] One of the purposes of the present application is to provide a self-repairing amino-graphene / MXene type cured cathodic electrophoretic paint, which comprises epoxy resin, cosolvent, water and amino-graphene / MXene containing disulfide bond, and the mass ratio of epoxy resin, cosolvent, water and amino-graphene / MXene containing disulfide bond is 90-110:2-5:100-150:5-10. The amino-graphene / MXene containing disulfide bond is prepared by the following steps: Step 1, mixing the DMF dispersion liquid of graphene oxide and the DMF dispersion liquid of MXene, ultrasonic, so that the graphene oxide and MXene are fully mixed in the DMF to obtain a graphene oxide / MXene mixed dispersion liquid; Step 2, adding 1,6-diisocyanate hexane disulfide and dibutyl tin dilaurate to the graphene oxide / MXene mixed dispersion liquid, and reacting under nitrogen atmosphere to obtain graphene oxide / MXene containing disulfide bond; Step 3, dissolving the graphene oxide / MXene containing disulfide bond in ethanol, and then adding a silane coupling agent to obtain amino-graphene / MXene containing disulfide bond.

[0005] Further, in step 1, the concentration of the DMF dispersion solution of graphene oxide is 0.5-10 g / L, the concentration of the DMF dispersion solution of MXene is 0.5-10 g / L, the mass ratio of the graphene oxide and MXene is 1-9:10, and the concentration of the graphene oxide / MXene mixed dispersion solution is 1-10 g / L.

[0006] Further, in step 1, the ultrasonic power is 700-2000 W, and the ultrasonic time is 0.5-2 h.

[0007] Further, in step 2, the mass ratio of 1,6-diisocyanate hexane disulfide and graphene oxide / MXene is 1-5:1, and the reaction conditions are 70-75℃ and 20-36 h.

[0008] Further, in step 3, the mass ratio of the silane coupling agent and the graphene oxide / MXene containing disulfide bond is 2-5:1, and the reaction conditions are 800-1000 rpm, 70-75℃, and 5-7 h.

[0009] Further, the silane coupling agent is one or a mixture of two or more of 3-aminopropyl trimethoxysilane (APTMS), 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (APTES), 3-aminopropyl(diethoxy)methylsilane, and N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyl trimethoxysilane.

[0010] Further, the cosolvent is one or a mixture of two or more of propylene glycol methyl ether, ethylene glycol butyl ether, and dipropylene glycol butyl ether.

[0011] The second object of the present application is to provide a preparation method of the self-repairing amino-functionalized graphene / MXene type cured cathodic electrophoretic paint, which uniformly mixes epoxy resin, cosolvent, water, and amino-functionalized graphene / MXene containing disulfide bond to obtain the self-repairing amino-functionalized graphene / MXene type cured cathodic electrophoretic paint.

[0012] In one specific embodiment of the present application, the amino-functionalized modified graphene / MXene containing disulfide bond is dispersed in water by stirring and ultrasonic dispersion for 0.5-1 h, then the epoxy resin and the cosolvent are added respectively, and the electrophoretic film is obtained by electrophoresis and baking in an oven.

[0013] The present application has the following advantages: 1. The present application greatly improves the interfacial compatibility between the two-dimensional nanomaterial and the resin by introducing amino groups and disulfide bonds, so that the two-dimensional sheet structure of GO and MXene can be uniformly dispersed in the epoxy resin, and the amino groups and the epoxy resin can be crosslinked by ring-opening reaction, which improves the crosslinking density of the coating, makes the entire three-dimensional network structure more compact, and enhances the mechanical properties of the coating.

[0014] 2. The mutual interpenetration between graphene oxide and Mxene layers effectively prevents their respective aggregation. The present application can achieve cross-linking between graphene oxide and MXene through the introduction of amino groups and disulfide bonds, effectively "locking" GO and MXene nanosheets, inhibiting their swelling in water environment, and maintaining stable interlayer spacing, thereby significantly improving the structural stability and mechanical strength of the composite material.

[0015] 3. Covalent cross-linking generally does not sacrifice the excellent high conductivity of MXene itself while enhancing mechanical properties. The dense covalent cross-linking network instead provides a more efficient electron transport path, thereby maintaining or even improving the electrical conductivity of the composite material, making it have excellent electromagnetic shielding performance.

[0016] 4. The disulfide bond belongs to a dynamic covalent bond. With its introduction, when the coating produces microcracks due to scratching, the stress at the crack will cause the disulfide bond to break, but through temperature conditions, the adjacent disulfide bond can undergo an exchange reaction, allowing the chemical bond to rearrange in the network, thereby "healing" the crack and achieving self-repair.

Comparative Example 3

[0049] Preparation of graphene oxide / MXene type solidified cathode electrophoretic paint (1) Preparation of ethanol mixed dispersion of graphene oxide / MXene: add 1.35 g of graphene oxide powder into 500 mL of ethanol, ultrasonic at 2000 W below 30℃ for 2 h, to get 2.7 g / L of graphene oxide ethanol dispersion; add 1.5 g of titanium carbide (Ti3C2T x ) MXene nanosheet into 200 mL of ethanol, ultrasonic at 2000 W below 30℃ for 2 h, to get 7.5 g / L of titanium carbide (Ti3C2T x ) MXene ethanol dispersion; mix the two ethanol dispersions and continue to ultrasonic at 2000 W below 30℃ for 1 h, to get about 4.07 g / L of graphene oxide / MXene mixed ethanol dispersion.

[0052] The self-repairing aminated graphene / MXene type cured cathodic electrophoretic paint prepared in Examples 1-5 and the electrophoretic paint prepared in Comparative Examples 1-3 were tested. The hardness and adhesion of the paint film were tested according to GB / T 6739-2022 and GB / T 1720-2020, respectively. It can be seen that the hardness of the paint film of the self-repairing aminated graphene / MXene type cured cathodic electrophoretic paint prepared in Examples 1-5 reaches 5H, and the adhesion reaches level 1. In Comparative Example 1, the modified electrophoretic paint is simply added with graphene oxide / MXene, and the resin does not reach a certain crosslinking degree, so the hardness and adhesion of the coating are low. In Comparative Example 2, the MXene type cured cathodic electrophoretic paint film is prepared, and although the aminated MXene realizes the curing of the epoxy resin, there is a certain degree of agglomeration between the MXene layers, which cannot realize the mutual interpenetration between the graphene oxide and the MXene layers as in the examples, and prevent their own agglomeration, so the hardness and adhesion of the paint film are slightly worse. In Comparative Example 3, the hardness and adhesion reach the level of Examples 1-5.

[0053] The neutral salt spray test (720h) of the electrophoretic paint film was carried out according to GB / T 10125-2021, Figure 2 The photo of Example 1 after 720h of neutral salt spray test. As can be seen from Table 1, the electrophoretic paint film prepared in Examples 1-5 has excellent corrosion resistance after 720h of neutral salt spray test. In Comparative Example 1, the graphene oxide / MXene powder is not modified, which leads to poor crosslinking degree of the paint film, and the neutral salt spray test is unqualified. In Comparative Example 2, the MXene is modified by amination, and the paint film passes the neutral salt spray test. In Comparative Example 3, the paint film passes the neutral salt spray test.

[0054] Table 1 Performance comparison of electrophoretic paint films prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-3

[0055] The shielding effectiveness of the electrophoretic paint film prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-3 was tested according to GB / T 25471-2010. It can be seen that the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of the electrophoretic paint film prepared in Examples 1-5 is above 40 dB at different frequencies, and the shielding effectiveness is excellent. On the one hand, the amino-oxidized graphene / MXene itself has excellent conductivity, and the covalent crosslinking enhances the mechanical properties without sacrificing the excellent high conductivity of MXene itself. The dense covalent crosslinking network provides a more efficient electron transport path, thereby maintaining or even improving the electrical conductivity of the composite material, so that it has excellent electromagnetic shielding performance. On the other hand, the interpenetration between the graphene oxide and the MXene layers makes them well dispersed in the resin, ensuring the realization of high conductivity. The electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of the electrophoretic paint film prepared in Comparative Examples 1-2 is below 40 dB at different frequencies; the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of the electrophoretic paint film prepared in Comparative Example 3 is also above 40 dB at different frequencies.

[0057] Self-repairing performance evaluation: The electromagnetic shielding effectiveness at 600 MHz and 1 GHz before and after damage and repair was tested, and the repair efficiency was calculated. The damage was simulated by scratch damage in actual use by using a knife or scratch tester to make one or more scratches on the surface of the coating. The repair was carried out at 60°C for 6 h.

[0059] Table 4 Comparison of electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of electrophoretic paint films prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-3 before and after repair at 1 GHz

[0060] From the above results, it can be seen that the self-repairing efficiency (η) of the coating in Examples 1-5 is above 85%, while the self-repairing efficiency (η) of the coating in Comparative Examples 1-3 is less than 40%. This is because the disulfide bond in the coating can undergo exchange reaction at 60°C, so that the chemical bond is rearranged in the network, thereby "healing" the crack and realizing self-repairing.
