AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing polyester-based two-component solvent-free polyurethane adhesives have poor compatibility with polyurethane inks used in flexible packaging, leading to ink dissolution, and their high viscosity affects construction and operation time; polyether-based adhesives, although having low viscosity, have poor bonding strength and absorb film slip agents, resulting in abnormal coefficient of friction.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of polyurethane adhesive technology, specifically relating to a polyester-based two-component solvent-free polyurethane adhesive, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Two-component solvent-free polyurethane adhesives are gradually replacing solvent-based polyurethane adhesives as the mainstream in the flexible packaging industry due to their advantages such as environmental friendliness, energy saving, safety, and high efficiency. Polyester-based two-component solvent-free polyurethane adhesives have high bonding strength, fast curing speed, and moderate coefficient of friction, but their viscosity is usually high. Furthermore, they exhibit a similarity-to-miscibility phenomenon ("ink dissolution") with polyurethane inks commonly used in flexible packaging due to their similar polarity. This often results in appearance defects caused by the dissolution of the ink layer during the lamination process, specifically manifested as darkening of white or light-colored ink areas, or blurring or fading of lines in colored areas. Polyether-based adhesives typically have lower viscosity, good low-temperature flexibility, and excellent hydrolysis resistance, but their bonding strength is not as good as polyester-based adhesives, and they absorb slip agents from the film, leading to an abnormally high coefficient of friction.

[0003] Chinese patent CN 115678477 A discloses a two-component solvent-free polyurethane laminating adhesive and its preparation method. Through the design of the A and B component formulations, particularly the structural design of different polyester polyols, the resulting B component exhibits high viscosity and good initial tack, meeting the requirements for retorting in aluminum-plastic structures. However, this solvent-free two-component polyurethane laminating adhesive has a viscosity between 30,000 and 120,000 mPa·s at 25°C and between 300 and 1400 mPa·s at 65°C, requiring a coating temperature of approximately 65°C. This high viscosity increases the requirements for adhesive application, necessitating higher application temperatures and affecting the adhesive's working time.

[0004] Chinese patent CN 114736645 A discloses a solvent-free two-component polyurethane laminating adhesive with yellowing resistance, its preparation method and application. The laminating adhesive can meet the requirement of 121℃ boiling resistance. Its high temperature resistance is achieved by using aromatic small molecule diacid as the main small molecule acid. While the adhesive improves the temperature resistance, the viscosity increases. At the same time, the large number of benzene ring structures in the system leads to a decrease in its low temperature resistance and a narrowing of the product's applicability. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a polyester-based two-component solvent-free polyurethane adhesive with low viscosity, good ink compatibility, good low-temperature flexibility, and resistance to high-temperature cooking at 121°C.

[0006] Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing and applying a polyester-based two-component solvent-free polyurethane adhesive.

[0007] The technical solution adopted in this invention is as follows:

[0008] The polyester-type two-component solvent-free polyurethane adhesive comprises component A and component B, wherein the weight ratio of component A to component B is 1:(1.3-1.5).

[0009] Component A is the hydroxyl component, which, by weight, is composed of the following raw materials:

[0010] Polyester polyol 1: 95-97 parts;

[0011] Chain extender: 2-4 parts;

[0012] Silane coupling agent: 0.5-1 part;

[0013] The polyester polyol has a hydroxyl value of 150-200 mg KOH / g and is prepared from small molecule polyols and small molecule polyacids. The small molecule polyols include multi-side group small molecule polyols and other small molecule polyols, with the molar amount of multi-side group small molecule polyols accounting for more than 70% of the total molar amount of small molecule polyols. The multi-side group small molecule polyols are one or more of neopentyl glycol, trimethylpentyl glycol, and 2-ethyl-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol. The other small molecule polyols are one or more of methylpropanediol, 1,2-propanediol, 1,4-butanediol, 1,6-hexanediol, glycerol, and trimethylolpropane. The small molecule polyacids are dimer acids and isophthalic acid, with the molar amount of isophthalic acid accounting for 10-20% of the total molar amount of small molecule polyacids.

[0014] When the proportion of multi-side group small molecule polyols is above 70%, the compatibility of the adhesive with different types of inks will be greatly improved, and ink dissolution will not occur due to insufficient compatibility between the adhesive and the ink. If the proportion of multi-side group small molecule polyols is below 70%, the adhesive is prone to dissolving the ink when using certain inks, such as white inks, resulting in a blurry, unclear, or show-through printed pattern.

[0015] When isophthalic acid is used as an auxiliary means to improve the heat resistance of adhesives, if the amount added is less than 10%, the effect is limited and insufficient to significantly improve the heat resistance of the adhesive; if it is more than 20%, it will cause the viscosity of the adhesive to increase significantly, which is not conducive to the application of the adhesive.

[0016] Component B is an isocyanate component with an -NCO content of 15-18%. By weight, the isocyanate component is composed of the following raw materials:

[0017] Polyester polyol 2: 30-50 parts;

[0018] Isocyanate: 50-70 parts;

[0019] The polyester polyol has a hydroxyl value of 120-150 mg KOH / g and is prepared from small molecule polyols, dimer acids, and lauric acid. The small molecule polyols include difunctional and trifunctional small molecule polyols, with the molar amount of trifunctional small molecule polyols accounting for 3-6% of the total molar amount of small molecule polyols. The molar amount of lauric acid is 10-20% of the total molar amount of dimer acids and lauric acid.

[0020] Trifunctional small molecule polyols are the main means of improving the crosslinking degree of adhesives. If the proportion of trifunctional small molecule alcohols is too low (below 3%), the effect of improving the crosslinking degree will not be obvious, and it will be difficult to improve the initial tack of the adhesive and the crosslinking strength of the adhesive after final curing. If the proportion is too high (>6%), it will lead to a significant increase in the viscosity of the adhesive, which is not conducive to the application of the adhesive.

[0021] Lauric acid has a unique structure and mainly plays a role in reducing the viscosity of the polyester polyol chain. Adding more than 10% will have a significant effect on reducing viscosity. However, if the amount added is too high (above 20%), it will affect the final performance of the adhesive and reduce the bonding strength.

[0022] Difunctional small molecule polyols are one or more of the following: neopentyl glycol, 1,4-butanediol, 1,6-hexanediol, methylpropanediol, 1,2-propanediol, ethylene glycol, and diethylene glycol.

[0023] Trifunctional small molecule polyols are one of trimethylolpropane and glycerol.

[0024] The chain extender is one of diisopropanolamine, triisopropanolamine, and triethanolamine, preferably diisopropanolamine.

[0025] The silane coupling agent is one of γ-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (KH-560), γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (KH-550), and γ-methacryloyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (KH-570), with γ-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (KH-560) being preferred.

[0026] The isocyanate is one or both of diphenylmethane diisocyanate and carbodiimide-modified diphenylmethane diisocyanate.

[0027] Preferably, the isocyanate is a mixture of diphenylmethane diisocyanate and carbodiimide-modified diphenylmethane diisocyanate in a mass ratio of (3.4-3.6):1.

[0028] The preparation method of the polyester-based two-component solvent-free polyurethane adhesive of the present invention includes the following steps:

[0029] (1) Preparation method of component A: Small molecule polyacid and small molecule polyol are fed into the reaction vessel, heated to 225-235℃ and reacted for 6-8h. After the hydroxyl value is qualified, the temperature is lowered to 55-65℃, silane coupling agent and chain extender are added, and after stirring evenly, component A is obtained.

[0030] (2) Preparation method of component B: Dimer acid, lauric acid and small molecule polyol are added to the reaction vessel, heated to 225-235℃ and reacted for 6-8h. After the hydroxyl value is qualified, the temperature is lowered to 40-45℃, isocyanate is added, and the temperature is raised to 75-80℃ and reacted for 3-4h. The -NCO content is tested and qualified to obtain component B.

[0031] (3) Preheat components A and B to 35-40℃ respectively, mix them evenly, and then apply the adhesive.

[0032] Preferably, in steps (1) and (2), the heating rate to 230°C is 20°C / h.

[0033] The polyester-based two-component solvent-free polyurethane adhesive described in this invention is used for bonding PE, PET, OPP, VMPET, aluminum foil, RCPP, and PA films.

[0034] The bonding process is cured under the following conditions: 35-50℃ for 24-72 hours. Preferably, the curing temperature is 42.5±2.5℃.

[0035] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0036] (1) In this invention, a dimer acid containing long-chain aliphatic alkane segments is selected as the main small molecule acid, supplemented with an appropriate amount of isophthalic acid containing a benzene ring structure to synthesize polyester polyol, and the hydroxyl component of the two-component polyurethane adhesive is constructed mainly from it. The introduction of long-chain aliphatic alkane segments can effectively reduce the viscosity of the system, improve its coating fluidity, and facilitate uniform coating of the adhesive.

[0037] (2) The polyurethane adhesive obtained by this invention contains three structural components in its molecular chain: long-chain aliphatic alkane segments, branched small-molecule polyol segments, and lauric acid segments. This allows the adhesive to possess both good flexibility and a certain degree of steric hindrance, thereby improving the hydrolysis resistance and flexibility of the chain segments and thus enhancing the heat resistance stability of the adhesive. Furthermore, by introducing a small amount of rigid benzene ring structures, the heat resistance of the material is further improved, meeting the requirements for high-temperature applications.

[0038] (3) The molecular chain structure of the polyurethane adhesive prepared by the present invention is significantly different from that of the ink binder. While ensuring the bonding performance, it avoids the "ink dissolution" problem that is easy to occur in traditional polyester polyurethane adhesives, and the material has a wider range of applicability.

[0091] Component B is the same as the component B used in Example 1.

[0092] Preparation of solvent-free composite film: Preheat components A and B to 40℃, mix them evenly according to the weight ratio, and then apply adhesive. VMPET film and PE film are selected for adhesive application. After adhesive application, cure at 42.5±2.5℃ for 24-72h.

[0093] Ink dissolution test: After mixing components A and B evenly, apply the mixture to a PET substrate printed with white ink. Place the substrate at 40°C for 15 minutes, then gently wipe it with a paper towel and observe the appearance of the substrate.

[0094] Ink-insoluble: After wiping, the ink on the substrate surface does not peel off, darken, or show through; the printed pattern has a clear outline and no blurring.

[0095] Slight ink dissolution: After wiping, the ink surface shows a very slight change in gloss, with no obvious peeling, no blurring at the edges of the printed pattern, and the area of ​​ink showing through is ≤5%;

[0096] Ink dissolution: After wiping, the ink comes off, becomes noticeably darker, or the area of ​​ink showing through is greater than 5%, or the outline of the printed pattern becomes blurred or blurred.

[0099] Test data are shown in Tables 1-5.

[0111]

[0112] Based on the comparison of the data in the table above, the following conclusions can be drawn:

[0113] 1. As can be seen from Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1, 3 and 4, when the proportion of multi-side group small molecule polyols in component A is more than 70%, the polyester-type two-component solvent-free adhesive has good compatibility with ink and does not cause ink dissolution.

[0114] 2. As can be seen from Example 1 and Comparative Example 2, the addition of lauric acid will significantly reduce the viscosity of component B. However, if the amount added is too high, it will have a significant impact on the peel strength. The optimal addition range is 10-20%, which balances viscosity and performance.

[0115] 3. As can be seen from Example 1 and Comparative Example 3, dimer acid has significantly better heat resistance than conventional adipic acid raw materials.

[0116] 4. As can be seen from Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1, 3 and 5, increasing the amount of isophthalic acid added can improve the adhesive's resistance to boiling. However, if the amount added is too high, the viscosity will increase sharply, which is not conducive to construction. Considering both performance and viscosity, 10-20% is selected as the optimal amount of isophthalic acid added.

[0117] 5. As can be seen from Example 1 and Comparative Example 4, increasing the amount of trifunctional small molecule polyol in component B improves the heat resistance, but also significantly increases the viscosity. 3-6% is the optimal addition amount.

[0118] In summary, this invention solves the ink dissolution problem by specially designing the polyester polyol structure; when using a combination of dimer acid and lauric acid, the viscosity can be significantly reduced without affecting the strength; compared with the traditional adipic acid and isophthalic acid system, the dimer acid system adhesive of this invention has better low-temperature fluidity, and thus better low-temperature flexibility.
