Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of high polymer materials, in particular to a high-damping polyurethane composition resistant to rapid temperature change and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] In high-end equipment such as low-altitude aircraft and high-speed railway locomotives, shock-absorbing sealing materials often need to withstand extreme high-low temperature cyclic impact in a very short time (for example, rapid temperature change from -60℃ to +150℃). Such working conditions put stringent requirements on the damping performance (dissipating vibration energy) and heat fatigue resistance of the materials.
[0003] Traditional shock-absorbing damping materials, such as high-damping rubber or resin, usually have a relatively narrow effective damping temperature range, and are severely dependent on the glass transition temperature (Tg). Once the temperature exceeds the Tg range, the damping performance will decrease sharply. Ordinary polyurethane elastomers have good toughness and low-temperature resistance, but their inherent damping factor (tan δ) is low, and in the process of frequent rapid temperature change, due to the difference in thermal expansion coefficient between the hard segments and soft segments in the matrix, internal stress accumulation easily occurs, leading to material cracking and debonding from the substrate, thereby losing the sealing and shock-absorbing functions.
[0004] In the prior art, the damping performance of polyurethane is often improved by adding inorganic fillers (such as carbon black and silicon dioxide) or blending with other polymers (such as acrylate). However, these methods often have limitations: the addition of a large amount of fillers will significantly damage the flexibility and elongation at break of the material, and increase the density, which cannot meet the demand for lightweight aircraft; simple physical blending easily leads to phase separation, and the phase interface becomes a weak point under thermal cycling stress, which may cause durability problems. Therefore, how to significantly broaden the effective damping temperature range while ensuring the stability of the mechanical properties of the material under rapid temperature change and the interface durability is a technical problem to be solved in the field.
[0005] In view of this, the present application is proposed. SUMMARY
[0006] The purpose of the present application is to provide a high-damping polyurethane composition resistant to rapid temperature change and a preparation method thereof, which has the characteristics of ultra-wide temperature range and high damping, excellent heat shock resistance and high strength and toughness, thereby solving the technical problems of narrow temperature range and poor rapid temperature change fatigue resistance of existing polyurethane damping materials.

Unless otherwise indicated, numerical ranges recited herein are inclusive of the ends and all the integers and fractions within the range.
[0027] The solutions provided by the present application are described in detail below. The content not described in detail in the embodiments of the present application belongs to the prior art known to those skilled in the art. Unless otherwise specified, the conditions in the embodiments of the present application are carried out according to the conventional conditions in the art or the conditions recommended by the manufacturer. Unless otherwise specified, the reagents or instruments used in the embodiments of the present application are conventional products that can be obtained by commercial purchase.
[0028] The high-damping polyurethane composition provided by the embodiments of the present application is resistant to rapid temperature change and can maintain high damping performance and structural integrity in a severe temperature alternating environment, and is suitable for high-speed rail transportation, aerospace instruments, and other fields with extremely high reliability requirements. The high-damping polyurethane composition comprises the following components in parts by weight: matrix polyurethane prepolymer: 100 parts; high-performance polyurethane damping agent: 5-25 parts; modified nanofiller: 0.5-8 parts; other fillers: 3-10 parts; plasticizer: 7-15 parts catalyst: 0.01-0.5 parts; other additives: 0-5 parts, including at least one of an antioxidant, an ultraviolet absorber, and an adhesion promoter.
[0029] In some specific embodiments, the matrix polyurethane prepolymer is prepared by reacting mixed polyols with excess diisocyanate; wherein the mixed polyols comprise polyether polyol (number average molecular weight Mn = 2000-4000, Tg < -70°C) and polyester polyol or polycarbonate polyol (number average molecular weight Mn = 1000-3000, Tg at -30°C to 10°C), and the mass ratio of the two is (50:50) to (80:20).
[0030] The diisocyanate is preferably an asymmetric aliphatic isocyanate, such as isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI).
[0031] The NCO mass content of the base polyurethane prepolymer is controlled at 2.0% to 5.0%.
[0032] In some specific embodiments, in the high-damping polyurethane composition, the high-performance polyurethane damping agent is a star-shaped polymer with a multifunctional small-molecule alcohol (such as pentaerythritol) as a core and a small-molecule polyether polyol or a polyester polyol as an arm. It is synthesized by the following steps: first, an excess of diisocyanate (such as MDI) is reacted with a multifunctional small-molecule alcohol (such as pentaerythritol) to form a high-NCO-functionality core prepolymer; then, a metered amount of a monofunctional long-chain alcohol is reacted, and after the NCO groups are substantially consumed, the obtained high-damping polyurethane resin is the high-performance polyurethane damping agent. The high-damping polyurethane resin contains a large number of terminal soft segment chains and potential intramolecular cavities, can produce strong interchain entanglement and friction with the base polyurethane prepolymer, and at the same time, the contained isocyanate groups also entangle and link with the base polyurethane resin, improving the compatibility.
[0033] In some specific embodiments, in the high-damping polyurethane composition, the modified nanofiller is a surface-modified carbon nanotube, graphene, or nanosilica.
[0034] The innovation of the present application lies in: Soft and hard segment coordinated wide temperature range damping mechanism: the mixed soft segment of low Tg polyether and medium-high Tg polyester is used to make the material have chain segment movement energy contribution to damping in different temperature intervals, realizing the widening of temperature range. At the same time, the asymmetric hard segment structure such as IPDI is selected to inhibit the excessive ordered crystallization of the hard segment and reduce the internal stress caused by the change of crystallinity in thermal cycling.
[0035] High-performance polyurethane damping agent constructs a multi-scale energy dissipation network: a specially designed high-performance polyurethane damping agent is introduced as a damping agent. Its multi-arm structure and a large number of terminal groups form topological entanglement and multiple hydrogen bond effects with the linear base prepolymer, producing strong intermolecular friction and dissipating energy when stressed. Its good chemical compatibility with the base avoids phase separation.
[0036] Skeleton-reinforced composite damping effect: surface-modified nanofillers are used to mechanically mix with the polyurethane matrix to reinforce and toughen, and the interfacial sliding between the nanometer particles and the polymer chains becomes an effective additional damping source. The three are coordinated to construct a multi-scale energy dissipation system from molecular chain friction, entangled network friction to filler interface friction.
[0037] In order to more clearly show the technical solutions provided by the present application and the technical effects produced, the schemes provided by the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with specific examples.
[0038] Example 1 The embodiment provides a high-damping polyurethane composition resistant to rapid temperature change, and a preparation method thereof as follows (the amount of each raw material is in parts by weight), comprising the following steps: 1) Synthesis of base polyurethane prepolymer (denoted as A1): in a four-necked flask equipped with a stirrer, a thermometer, a nitrogen inlet and a vacuum system, 70 parts of polypropylene glycol (PPG, Mn=2000) and 30 parts of polycaprolactone diol (PCL, Mn=2000) are added. Dehydrate at 120 DEG C under -0.098 MPa vacuum for 2.5 hours. Cool to 60 DEG C, remove the vacuum by passing nitrogen, and add 0.3 parts of antioxidant 1010. Slowly drop 23 parts of isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) at 60 DEG C under nitrogen protection and stirring, and then raise the temperature to 80 DEG C. Add 0.02 parts of organic bismuth catalyst, and take samples every 1 hour to titrate NCO content by using di-n-butylamine method. After about 5 hours of reaction, the NCO content is stabilized at 3.5%±0.2%, and the temperature is lowered to 60 DEG C to obtain a light yellow transparent polyurethane resin, which is the base polyurethane prepolymer, and is sealed for storage.
[0039] 2) Synthesis of high-performance polyurethane damping agent (denoted as B1): in a dry reaction bottle equipped with a stirrer, a thermometer, a condenser and a nitrogen inlet, 250 parts of 4,4'-diphenyl methane diisocyanate (MDI) and 120 parts of anhydrous xylene are added, and the temperature is raised to 60 DEG C under nitrogen protection to dissolve. 34.1 parts of pentaerythritol are dissolved in 60 parts of hot anhydrous xylene, and a constant-pressure dropping funnel is used to slowly drop the solution into the reaction bottle within 1.5 hours. The temperature is raised to 80±2 DEG C, and the reaction is carried out for 2-3 hours. The NCO content approaches the theoretical value (11.3%), the temperature is lowered to 60 DEG C, and 719 parts of a mixed solution of dehydrated PTMG-1000 and 0.14 parts of catalyst DBTDL is slowly dropped into the reaction bottle. After 2.5-3 hours of dropping, the temperature is raised to 75-80 DEG C, and the reaction is continued for 3-5 hours. During the period, samples are taken for titration until the NCO content reaches the theoretical value (about 1.1%) for the subsequent blocking agent. The temperature is lowered to 65 DEG C, and 26.5 parts of n-octanol is added. The reaction is carried out at 65-70 DEG C for 3-4 hours. After the reaction is completed, anhydrous xylene is removed by reduced pressure evaporation, and a yellow viscous substance is obtained, which is the high-performance polyurethane damping agent (hereinafter referred to as damping agent B1).
[0040] 3) Preparation of high-damping polyurethane sealant resistant to rapid temperature change: the raw materials are taken according to the following parts by weight, and are prepared in a vacuum planetary mixer: base polyurethane prepolymer (A1): 100 parts, high-performance polyurethane damping agent (B1): 15 parts, modified nanofiller: functionalized carbon nanotube (diameter 10-20 nm, length 10-30 μm), 3 parts, other fillers: carbon black, 7 parts, plasticizer: 10 parts, Catalyst: Organic bismuth catalyst (BiCAT® 8117), 0.08 parts, Other additives: Antioxidant 1010 (0.3 parts), ultraviolet absorber (0.5 parts), light stabilizer (0.5 parts) for a total of 1.3 parts, adhesion promoter (0.5 parts).
[0041] Preparation process: The base polyurethane prepolymer (A1), high-performance polyurethane damping agent (B1), plasticizer, functionalized carbon nanotubes, and treated carbon black are added to a stirred tank. Vacuum is drawn, and the mixture is stirred at medium speed for 45 minutes to ensure uniform mixing of the fillers. The vacuum is released. Under nitrogen protection, the aging aids (light stabilizers, etc.), adhesion promoter, and catalyst are added in sequence. High-speed vacuum is drawn to -0.095 MPa, and stirring is performed for 15-20 minutes. The material is discharged and stored in a sealed state to obtain a uniform, fine, and bubble-free paste-like polyurethane compound, which is a high-damping polyurethane composition resistant to rapid temperature changes. The operable time of the composition is about 50 minutes.
[0042] Example 2 The difference between this example and Example 1 is that the amount of high-damping polyurethane polymer (damping agent B1) is adjusted to investigate the effect of the amount of key components.
[0043] 1) The synthesis method of the base polyurethane prepolymer (A1) is the same as in Example 1: 2) The synthesis method of the high-damping polyurethane polymer (B1) is the same as in Example 1.
[0044] 3) Preparation of high-damping polyurethane sealant resistant to rapid temperature changes: The raw materials are prepared in the following weight parts in a vacuum planetary mixer: Base polyurethane prepolymer (A1): 100 parts, High-damping polyurethane polymer (B1): 20 parts, Modified nanofiller: functionalized carbon nanotubes (diameter 10-20 nm, length 10-30 μm), 3 parts Other fillers: carbon black, 7 parts, Plasticizer: 10 parts, Catalyst: Organic bismuth catalyst (BiCAT® 8117), 0.08 parts, Other additives: Antioxidant 1010 (0.3 parts), ultraviolet absorber (0.5 parts), light stabilizer (0.5 parts) for a total of 1.3 parts, adhesion promoter (0.5 parts).
[0045] The preparation process of the high-damping polyurethane sealant resistant to rapid temperature changes is the same as in Example 1.
[0046] Example 3 This example aims to verify that the material can still maintain good performance by optimizing other components when adjusting the soft / hard segment ratio of the base polyurethane prepolymer.
[0047] 1) Synthesis of base polyurethane prepolymer (denoted as A2): In a four-necked flask equipped with a stirrer, a thermometer, a nitrogen inlet and a vacuum system, 60 parts of polypropylene glycol (PPG, Mn=2000) and 40 parts of polycaprolactone diol (PCL, Mn=2000) were added. Dehydration was carried out at 120°C under a vacuum of -0.098 MPa for 2.5 hours. The temperature was lowered to 60°C, the vacuum was released by passing nitrogen, and 0.3 parts of antioxidant 1010 was added. Under nitrogen protection and stirring, 23.0 parts of isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) was slowly added dropwise at 60°C. After the dropwise addition was completed, the temperature was raised to 80°C, and 0.02 parts of organic bismuth catalyst was added. The temperature was kept constant, and the NCO content was titrated every hour with di-n-butylamine. After about 5 hours of reaction, the NCO content stabilized at 3.5%±0.2%. The temperature was lowered to 60°C to obtain a light yellow transparent first polyurethane resin (prepolymer A2), which was sealed and stored.
[0048] 2) Synthesis of high-damping polyurethane polymer (B1) in the same manner as in Example 1.
[0049] 3) Preparation of a rapid temperature change resistant high-damping polyurethane sealant, the following ingredients were taken by weight: Base polyurethane prepolymer (A2): 100 parts, High-damping polyurethane polymer (B1): 20 parts, Modified nano filler: nano silicon dioxide (particle size 20 nm), 5 parts, Other fillers: carbon black, 8 parts, Plasticizer: 10 parts, Catalyst: organic bismuth catalyst, 0.10 parts, Other additives: antioxidant 1010 (0.3 parts), ultraviolet absorber UV-327 (0.5 parts), light stabilizer 770 (0.5 parts), total 1.3 parts,
[0050] Adhesion promoter: KH-560, 0.5 parts.
[0051] The preparation process of the rapid temperature change resistant high-damping polyurethane sealant is the same as in Example 1.
[0052] Comparative Example 1 This comparative example provides a polyurethane composition without high-damping polyurethane polymer (B1), aiming to verify the key role of high-damping polyurethane polymer (B1) in damping performance and temperature change resistance.
[0053] Formulation: Except that high damping polyurethane polymer (B1) was not added, the other components and their amounts, and the preparation process were the same as those of Example 1. The share of high damping polyurethane polymer (B1) was replaced with an equal amount of base polyurethane prepolymer (A1) to prepare the polyurethane composition of Comparative Example 1.
[0054] Comparative Example 2 This comparative example provides a polyurethane composition, which is prepared by the following process (the amount of each component is by weight parts), including: In a four-necked flask equipped with a stirrer, thermometer, nitrogen inlet and vacuum system, 100 parts of polyoxypropylene glycol (PPG, Mn=2000) was added. Dehydration was carried out at 120°C under a vacuum of -0.098 MPa for 2.5 hours. The temperature was lowered to 60°C, the vacuum was released by passing nitrogen gas, and 0.3 parts of antioxidant 1010 was added. Under nitrogen protection and stirring, 23.0 parts of isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) was slowly added dropwise at 60°C. After the dropwise addition was completed, the temperature was raised to 80°C, and 0.02 parts of organic bismuth catalyst was added. The temperature was kept constant, and the NCO content was titrated by the di-n-butylamine method every 1 hour. After about 5 hours of reaction, the NCO content was stabilized at 3.5%±0.2%. The temperature was lowered to 60°C to obtain a light yellow transparent first polyurethane resin as a single soft segment prepolymer (denoted as A2), which was sealed and stored.
[0055] Sealant preparation: This single soft segment prepolymer was used, and the other components, amounts and preparation process were the same as those of Example 1 to prepare the polyurethane composition of Comparative Example 2.
[0056] Performance test and result analysis The polyurethane compositions prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-2 were cast into standard test bars under the same conditions, and tested after curing at 25°C / 50% RH for 7 days. The main test results are shown in Table 1.
[0057] Table 1 is the test results .
[0058] Result analysis: As can be seen from the above table, the examples 1-3 of the present application all exhibit the characteristics of high strength and high toughness (strength > 6 MPa, elongation > 350%). The strength of the comparative example 2 is the lowest, indicating that the mixed soft segment design has an important contribution to the mechanical strength. According to the test of the damping temperature range, it is shown that the examples 1-3 all exhibit an ultra-wide effective damping temperature range, realizing the "seamless" high damping from low temperature to high temperature. The damping peak value and temperature range of the comparative example 1 are sharply reduced, proving that the damping agent B1 is the core of constructing a wide temperature range high damping network. Although the comparative example 2 has an early low-temperature damping peak (low Tg), the damping decreases rapidly in the high-temperature zone, and the effective temperature range is narrow. Especially after 50 severe thermal shocks, the mechanical properties and damping performance retention rates of the three examples are all higher than 89%, and the appearance is intact, proving the excellent rapid temperature change fatigue resistance of the present application.
[0059] Conclusion: The comparison data of the examples and the comparative examples fully prove that, through the synergistic technical scheme of mixed soft segment matrix design, high-performance damping agent introduction, and modified nano filler composite, the polyurethane composition with ultra-wide temperature range high damping, excellent rapid temperature change fatigue resistance, and high strength and high toughness is successfully prepared.
