Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of polyurethane paving materials, specifically relating to a two-component hydrophobic microfoamed self-skinning polyurethane sports court material and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Polyurethane paving materials are a type of polyurethane elastomer material used for flooring in various locations. They are widely used in sports fields, highways, ground surfaces, parks, and other venues, characterized by good elasticity, comfort, and vibrant colors. Sports venues include synthetic running tracks, synthetic basketball courts, and synthetic badminton courts. Synthetic basketball courts are already used in primary and secondary schools, universities, stadiums, and public sports venues. With the widespread application of synthetic basketball courts and the continuous improvement of mandatory standards, increasing attention is being paid to the physical performance and comfort of basketball courts. Conventional 8mm court materials absorb 18-24% of the impact, but their vertical deformation is below 0.5mm, far below the 0.6mm limit set in GB 36246-2018. This leads to decreased comfort during exercise and increases the risk of injury to athletes.

[0003] To improve vertical deformation performance, many manufacturers apply a two-layer elastic layer to basketball courts, typically a 6mm micro-foamed layer. However, this micro-foamed elastic layer suffers from fatal flaws, including high water absorption, poor mechanical properties, and poor abrasion resistance. Therefore, a 2mm reinforcing layer is needed on top of the foamed elastic layer to improve surface mechanical properties and abrasion resistance. This increases the number of construction steps and extends the construction period. Considering the core performance requirements of basketball courts in terms of impact absorption and vertical deformation, and to simplify construction procedures, shorten the construction period, and reduce construction risks, it is necessary to develop a two-component hydrophobic micro-foamed self-skinning polyurethane court material.

[0004] Chinese patent CN107129566A discloses a polyurethane sports court material and its preparation method, comprising the following components in parts by weight: 60-100 parts of polyether polyol, 8-15 parts of diphenylmethane diisocyanate, 15-30 parts of reinforcing filler, 10-20 parts of dearomatic solvent oil, 0.05-0.1 parts of composite catalyst, and 0.5-3 parts of additives. In the environment of the dearomatic solvent oil, it helps to remove moisture from the polyether polyol and other fillers; the steric hindrance of the dearomatic solvent oil is reduced, and the polarity difference between the dearomatic solvent oil and other components is reduced, preventing the formation of hydrogen bonds with the hydroxyl groups of the alcohol and thus affecting the reaction rate, which is beneficial to improving dehydration efficiency and enhancing the thoroughness of the reaction. However, three key defects still exist: First, the surface mechanical properties are insufficient. The one-time molding of single-component polyurethane materials, due to their high foaming rate, uniform density, and microporous structure, results in low surface strength and a short service life. Second, the stability of the compounded catalyst in the single-component system is poor. Zinc isooctanoate and bismuth isooctanoate easily promote the self-polymerization reaction of -NCO groups in the system, thereby causing the material to gel and deteriorate. Third, the dearomatic solvent oil used does not meet environmental protection requirements, and its chemical testing indicators do not meet the relevant provisions of "Synthetic Material Surface Layer Sites for Primary and Secondary Schools" (GB 36246-2018). Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a two-component hydrophobic microfoamed self-skinning polyurethane sports court material with a scientifically and rationally formulated composition, exhibiting high mechanical properties, wear resistance, and excellent hydrophobicity.

[0040] The preparation method of the two-component hydrophobic microfoamed self-skinning polyurethane sports court material of the present invention includes the following steps:

[0041] (1) Preparation of component A: Polyether polyol A, polyether polyol B and plasticizer are put into the reactor and stirred. Chain extender, filler, pigment and anti-settling agent are added at 60-70℃. The temperature is raised to 95-100℃ and vacuum dehydrated (to water content ≤0.03%). Then, compound catalyst, foam stabilizer, water and defoamer are added and stirred evenly to obtain component A.

[0042] (2) Component B preparation: Isocyanate is added to the reactor, stirring is started, polyether polyol A and polyether polyol C are added at 40-50℃, the temperature is raised to 72-78℃, the temperature is maintained, ultraviolet absorber and antioxidant are added, the temperature is maintained at 72-78℃ for reaction, and the -NCO mass content is measured to be 7.3-11.2% to obtain component B;

[0043] (3) Mix component A and component B evenly, spread the mixture to a thickness of 8 mm, and allow it to mature at room temperature for 2 days to obtain a two-component hydrophobic micro-foamed self-skinning polyurethane sports field material.

[0044] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0045] (1) This invention utilizes a catalyst blend of a strong gel catalyst and a delayed amine foaming catalyst to ensure sufficient operating time and fluidity during paving. By introducing PTMG and the proportion of the blended catalyst through formulation design, the surface skinning rate is faster than the foaming rate. Simultaneously, an antifoaming agent is added to eliminate surface bubbles, resulting in a dense surface that significantly improves mechanical properties and wear resistance. After the skin forms, the interior slowly foams, forming a microporous structure. This provides excellent impact absorption and vertical deformation performance, while the dense surface structure provides excellent wear resistance.

[0046] (2) The present invention introduces hydrophobic polyether polyol, whose macromolecular structure can effectively improve the hydrophobicity of microporous structure; at the same time, an anti-settling agent polyamide wax powder is added. This agent not only has anti-settling function, but also has certain hydrophobicity and migration characteristics. When it migrates to the material surface, it can give the product excellent hydrophobic properties, thereby significantly enhancing the product's durability.

[0047] (3) The preparation method of the present invention is scientific, reasonable, simple and easy to implement, and suitable for industrial production. Detailed Implementation

[0333] The physical properties of the finished products obtained in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-8 were tested, and the test results are shown in Table 1.

[0334] Test method:

[0335] Density: Tested according to GB / T 6343-2009;

[0336] Tensile strength, elongation at break, impact absorption, and vertical deformation: tested in accordance with GB 36246-2018;

[0337] Water absorption rate: Tested in accordance with GB / T 8810-2005.

[0338] Table 1 Physical performance test results

[0339]

[0340] As shown in Table 1, the finished product obtained by this invention exhibits significant advantages in physical properties. Comparative Example 1 demonstrates that the hydrophobic polyether polyol and EO / PO copolymer polyether triol not only significantly improve the hydrophobicity of the material but also ensure the stability of the foaming agent in the system. Comparative Example 5 shows that the polyamide wax powder alters the wettability of the material's substrate, significantly enhancing its hydrophobic properties. Comparative Examples 2, 3, and 6 demonstrate that through formulation design, combined with a compound catalyst and B-455, a self-skinning material with thick skin, high strength, and good wear resistance is obtained. Its impact absorption and vertical deformation performance are superior to similar products, and its construction is simple and efficient, providing athletes with a more comfortable sports environment. Comparative Examples 7 and 8 show that bismuth isooctanoate, zirconium isooctanoate, and amine foaming catalyst must be compounded in a ternary ratio of 2:1:(2.5-3) to achieve a dynamic balance between gelation and foaming, ultimately obtaining a self-skinning polyurethane court material with excellent comprehensive performance. The absence of any component or deviation in the ratio will lead to problems such as surface skinning defects, decreased mechanical properties, and imbalanced sports performance.
