Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of adhesive synthesis technology, and relates to a light-curing adhesive, particularly a high-temperature and high-humidity resistant flexible ultraviolet light curing adhesive and its preparation method and application. Background Technology

[0002] Medical devices transported across continents often encounter harsh environments such as high temperature and humidity or large temperature fluctuations. When traversing tropical waters, the interior of containers frequently experiences a combination of temperatures exceeding 40°C and humidity reaching 95%. During trans-latitude transport between the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, drastic temperature fluctuations ranging from -10°C to 45°C are common. Medical devices (such as anesthesia catheters, infusion tubing, and breathing lines) are continuously subjected to humid heat, which weakens the bond strength of adhesive joints and increases the risk of leakage. Implantable medical devices (such as endotracheal tubes and orthopedic implant components) need to operate stably for extended periods in the physiological environment of the human body at a constant temperature of 37°C, rich in moisture and electrolytes. Adhesives used for bonding may delaminate or hydrolyze, weakening the bond strength. Therefore, developing high-temperature and high-humidity resistant adhesives is crucial to solving these problems.

[0003] Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) is a commonly used material in medical devices due to its excellent elasticity, toughness, and biocompatibility. However, its low surface energy makes it difficult to bond, limiting its use. Furthermore, medical devices often require operation in high-temperature and high-humidity environments, and TPU is prone to heat deformation at high temperatures. Adhesives used to bond TPU often lack flexibility, leading to peeling and bond failure. Therefore, the bonding problems of TPU are particularly prominent.

[0004] Patent document CN114874743B discloses a high-adhesion UV-curable polyurethane adhesive and its preparation method. While this method improves the adhesive strength and hydrolysis resistance to some extent through optimized selection of polyurethane acrylate raw materials, the high proportion of easily hydrolyzed groups such as ether and ester bonds in its molecular chain means that the adhesive's performance may be affected under relatively harsh high-temperature and high-humidity environments. After a certain period of aging, the adhesive strength may decrease significantly, limiting its applicability in environments requiring high resistance to damp heat and long-term exposure to high temperatures and humidity. Furthermore, the substrates it bonds to are polyimide films and glass. These two materials have higher surface energy than thermoplastic polyurethane and are less prone to deformation, posing a significant risk when used for bonding thermoplastic polyurethane materials.

[0005] Patent document CN112143442B discloses a water-resistant and high-temperature-resistant mixed acrylate flexible ultraviolet light curing adhesive and its preparation method. The adhesive uses self-made cationic radical mixed light curing acrylate resin and other components to achieve excellent adhesion to plastics and flexibility of the cured adhesive. The adhesive is used to bond ABS test pieces and PC material small test blocks, and the shear strength is tested. The substrate does not deform obviously, and the surface energy is higher than that of thermoplastic polyurethane material. At the same time, due to the high activity of the residual small molecule monomers in the system at high temperature, migration is easy to occur, which leads to cracking of the adhesive, and then the adhesion decreases, affecting the normal use and service life of the product.

[0071] Comparative Example 1 A kind of adhesive is prepared by the following steps: Steps (1) and (2) are the same as Example 4, except that the "self-made polyurethane acrylate oligomer" in step (2) is changed to "DR-U379 (purchased polyurethane acrylate oligomer)".

[0072] Comparative Example 2 A kind of adhesive is prepared by the following steps: Steps (1) and (2) are the same as Example 4, except that the "self-made polyurethane acrylate oligomer" in step (2) is changed to "HM-2528 (purchased polyurethane acrylate oligomer)".

[0073] Examples The properties of the adhesives prepared in Examples 1-16 and Comparative Examples 1-2 of the present application are as follows: Water absorption: The water absorption test was carried out according to GB / T 1034-2008 "Plastics - Determination of water absorption".

[0074] The sample was placed in a 50.0°C ± 2.0°C oven for at least 24 h, then cooled to room temperature in a desiccator, and each sample was weighed to the nearest 0.1 mg (mass ml). This step was repeated until the mass of the sample varied within ± 0.1 mg. The sample was placed in a container with distilled water, and the water temperature was controlled at 23.0°C ± 1.0°C or 23.0°C ± 2.0°C according to the relevant standard. If there was no relevant standard, the tolerance was ± 1.0°C.

[0075] After soaking for 24 h ± 1 h, the sample was removed, and all water on the surface of the sample was quickly wiped off with a clean dry cloth or filter paper. Each sample was weighed again to the nearest 0.1 mg (mass m2). The weighing should be completed within 1 min after the sample was removed from the water. The water absorption mass fraction of each sample relative to the initial mass was calculated using the following formula: Hardness: The sample cured according to the light curing conditions selected in the experiment was tested for hardness according to GB / T 2411-2008 "Plastics and ebonite - Determination of indentation hardness by durometer (Shore hardness)". The durometer used was Shore A, and the applied load was 5.00 kg ± 0.01 kg for 1 s.

[0076] Tensile strength and elongation at break: The sample cured according to the light curing conditions selected in the experiment was tested for tensile strength and elongation at break according to the test conditions specified in GB / T 1040.2-2006 "Determination of tensile properties of plastics - Part 2: Moulded and extruded plastics". The sample was 80 mm x 10 mm x 2 mm; the test speed (empty load) was 50 mm / min ± 5 mm / min; and the gauge length was 40 mm.

[0077] Peeling strength: The peeling strength test was carried out according to GB / T 2791-1995 "Adhesives - T-peel strength test method - Flexible material to flexible material". A TPU sample piece with a size of 200 mm x 100 mm was bonded to form an enlarged sample, and then the sample was cut from the enlarged sample piece, with a size of 25 mm x 170 mm.

[0078] Firstly, the adhesive tape is pasted, then the two 200*100mm TPU samples are pasted with alcohol, one of which is placed on the flat plate with the pasting surface upwards, fixed with the adhesive tape, and the UV glue is poured on the sample, which is evenly dispersed with the tool, and after 5min natural leveling, the other TPU sample is gently covered from one side to prevent bubbles, and the TPU sample is fixed with the adhesive tape to prevent sliding. After waiting for 5min natural leveling, place it under the surface light source for curing, the curing time is 60s, and the curing power is 100%. After curing, the sample is cut from the expanded sample, marked, and the average thickness of the adhesive layer of the sample is about 0.5mm.

[0079] Then, after adjusting at 80.0℃±1.0℃ and 80±10 RH% for 720h, the peel strength is tested.

[0080] The performance test results are shown in Table 1.

Specifically, the adhesive provided by the application has the following advantages: The hardness of the adhesive of Examples 1-16 after curing is between 83A and 95A, the water absorption rate is between 0.01% and 0.3%, and the elongation at break is more than 241%. The peel strength of the thermoplastic polyurethane sample is more than 8kN / m, and after the double eighty high-temperature and high-humidity verification, the peel strength can still maintain more than 7.6kN / m, and the peel strength retention rate is more than 95%.

[0082] The peel strength of the adhesive of Comparative Examples 1 and 2 for bonding thermoplastic polyurethane is only 4.42kN / m and 6.72kN / m, and due to the high water absorption rate of 0.90% and 0.58%, the peel strength decreases significantly after the double eighty treatment, and the peel strength retention rate is 51% and 74% respectively.

[0083] The comparison of the above data proves that the light-curing adhesive prepared from the self-made polyurethane acrylate oligomer has better bonding and high temperature and high humidity resistance to the thermoplastic polyurethane than the light-curing adhesive prepared from the purchased polyurethane acrylate oligomer. This is because, first, the self-made polyurethane acrylate oligomer is polymerized from polyethylene glycol with long alkane chain and high molecular weight and diisocyanate, and has lower surface tension and can fully infiltrate the surface of the thermoplastic polyurethane material; second, the polyethylene glycol with high molecular weight has a flexible long chain and is not easy to generate internal stress at the interface during the deformation of the thermoplastic polyurethane; at the same time, the acrylate monomer containing a tetrahydrofuran group is used, which can produce micro-etching and micro-dissolution on the surface of the thermoplastic polyurethane, thereby improving the adhesion of the adhesive layer to the bonded material; finally, the polyethylene glycol with long alkane chain and high molecular weight and the diisocyanate containing a benzene ring, in cooperation with the monomer not containing water-absorbing / polar groups, give the adhesive good humidity resistance and high temperature resistance.

Numerous modifications to these embodiments will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and the generic principles defined herein can be applied to other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the application.
