Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of epoxy resin technology, specifically relating to an enzymatic hydrolysis of lignin-based epoxy resin, a fiberglass board adhesive, a fiberglass board, and a preparation method thereof. Background Technology

[0002] Epoxy resin is a thermosetting resin containing epoxy groups. Due to its excellent mechanical properties, adhesive properties, electrical insulation properties, and chemical stability, it is commonly used as the core resin matrix in electronic packaging materials, printed circuit board (PCB) substrates, insulating coatings, structural adhesives, and composite material matrices. It has wide applications in the structural fixation, insulation protection, and encapsulation of 3C electronic products. However, epoxy resin originates from non-renewable petrochemical products. With the scarcity of petroleum resources and their continuously rising prices, finding and utilizing renewable resources to replace petrochemical products as raw materials for epoxy resin production is an urgent problem that needs to be solved.

[0003] Lignin is the second most abundant renewable resource in the plant kingdom after cellulose. In the industrial system of producing bioethanol from agricultural waste via enzymatic hydrolysis, it is often generated in large quantities as a byproduct. Thanks to the mild hydrolysis conditions of this process, the activity of various functional groups in the lignin molecule is well preserved, giving it the advantage of easy modification. This characteristic also makes its high-value utilization possible, and it is currently widely used in the modification and preparation of epoxy resins, becoming an important direction for promoting the resource utilization of agricultural waste and expanding the sources of epoxy resin raw materials. For example, the raw material formulation and preparation method of enzymatic hydrolyzed lignin epoxy resin disclosed in patent CN100528926C are as follows: the formulation consists of enzymatic hydrolyzed lignin or its derivatives, bisphenol A type compound, epichlorohydrin or a mixture thereof with an organic solvent, catalyst, curing agent, and filler; the preparation method is to add enzymatic hydrolyzed lignin or its derivatives to an epichlorohydrin solution or a mixture thereof with an organic solvent, stir to dissolve, then add the catalyst, and simultaneously add the curing agent or a mixture of curing agent and filler, and heat to make the reaction complete. Finally, the excess epichlorohydrin or organic solvent is distilled off under reduced pressure to obtain a brown solid that is insoluble in water, which is then washed with water and dried to obtain enzymatic hydrolyzed lignin epoxy resin. The preparation method of enzymatically hydrolyzed lignin-based epoxy resin disclosed in patent CN106883376B includes the following steps: adding 10-20 parts by weight of enzymatically hydrolyzed lignin and 2-5 parts by weight of phase transfer agent to 118-302 parts by weight of epichlorohydrin solution, heating to 50-100℃, stirring thoroughly to mix evenly, adding 7-15 parts by weight of catalyst, reflux reaction for 3-8 hours, after the reaction is completed, washing the reactants with water 3-5 times, taking the organic layer, and distilling under reduced pressure at a temperature of 20-100℃ to remove residual epichlorohydrin and deionized water to obtain enzymatically hydrolyzed lignin-based epoxy resin.

[0004] The above method successfully introduced epoxy groups into the lignin molecules using enzymatically hydrolyzed lignin as raw material to prepare epoxy resin. However, due to the limited activity and content of hydroxyl groups in the enzymatically hydrolyzed lignin, the epoxidation reaction could not be fully carried out, resulting in a low epoxy value of the epoxy resin. The composite material made from this epoxy resin has poor mechanical properties after curing and is difficult to replace conventional petrochemical epoxy resin in the field of 3C electronic products. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the technical problem of low epoxy value in epoxy resins prepared using enzymatically hydrolyzed lignin as raw material, resulting in poor mechanical properties of composite materials made from it after curing, this invention first treats the enzymatically hydrolyzed lignin with organic phenols to obtain phenolic lignin. Then, under the action of a Lewis acid catalyst, the phenolic lignin undergoes a Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction with thiol fatty acids, introducing thiol groups at the ortho or para positions of the phenolic hydroxyl groups in the phenolic lignin to obtain thiolized lignin. Finally, through a thiol-alkenyl addition reaction, the thiol groups of the thiolized lignin are covalently linked to the carbon-carbon double bonds of the unsaturated epoxy compound to obtain an enzymatically hydrolyzed lignin-based epoxy resin with a high epoxy value. This is beneficial for improving the mechanical properties of composite materials using it as the main base resin.

[0052] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0053] This invention first treats enzymatically hydrolyzed lignin with organic phenols to obtain phenolic lignin. Then, under the action of a Lewis acid catalyst, the phenolic lignin undergoes a Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction with thiol fatty acids, introducing thiol groups at the ortho or para positions of the phenolic hydroxyl groups in the phenolic lignin to obtain thiolized lignin. Finally, through a thiol-alkenyl addition reaction, the thiol groups of the thiolized lignin are covalently linked to the carbon-carbon double bonds of an unsaturated epoxy compound to obtain a high epoxy value enzymatically hydrolyzed lignin-based epoxy resin. In this preparation method, the phenolic treatment increases the number of phenolic hydroxyl groups, preparing more active sites for the Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction. The Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction utilizes phenolic hydroxyl groups, allowing the reaction to occur at the ortho or para positions, thereby maximizing the number of active sites, avoiding ineffective reactions, and providing more thiol groups for the subsequent thiol-alkenyl addition reaction. Thiol groups are highly reactive functional groups; their addition reaction with alkenyl groups is milder and more efficient than the reaction between hydroxyl groups and epichlorohydrin. Ultimately, the synergistic effect of the three-step reaction increases the epoxy value of the final product. Detailed Implementation

[0098] Furthermore, the bending performance test results of Examples 1-4 and Comparative Example 1 show that when the number of carbon atoms in the thiol fatty acid is C3-C5, the bending modulus decreases with the increase of the number of carbon atoms, that is, the resistance to deformation weakens and the bending strength decreases. When the number of carbon atoms continues to increase to C6, the bending strength of the fiberglass board decreases significantly, and the bending modulus is low, indicating poor resistance to deformation. It is speculated that the flexible carbon chain has hindered the transfer of load, weakening the reinforcing effect and resistance to deformation of the enzymatically hydrolyzed lignin-based epoxy resin.
